Loriel thought about it some more and smiled. "You wanted a bakery, didn't you? We could immediately start a shop if you'd like… I think you've already learned quite a lot from Chef Lucy. You're quite a pro already."
Oh, how much Loriel wished to have that handsome chef out of the picture already!
Elise smiled at Loriel and shook her head. "I have to refuse, Loriel. You know me, I have my aspirations in life and that includes being an independent person. That's why I've come to New York."
Loriel couldn't say a word to that.
