The Return of the Cannon Fodder Trillion Heiress - Chapter 205

Chapter 205: Chapter 205 The Revolving Restaurant
This incredible space was just the common area; the private rooms lay deeper within the restaurant. These exclusive rooms were always in high demand, perpetually booked months in advance—currently, reservations stretched into next year.

The outside area was bustling with guests, and as Hera and her companions were ushered into the private room, it was evident they belonged to the elite of the elite. Booking a private room wasn’t something every wealthy individual could achieve; even securing a regular seat required connections.

Curiosity got the better of them, and they stole a few more glances at Hera’s group. When they noticed the young minister among them, they quickly looked away, not wanting to create trouble for the minister or themselves. Meanwhile, Dave, in a particularly good mood, kept his eyes fixed solely on Hera. He watched her intently, as if Leo might suddenly swoop in and whisk her away, keeping vigil like a guard protecting against a potential thief.

Soon enough, they were led to the largest and most luxurious private room in the entire revolving restaurant. Dave took a second look around, puzzled, as if they had entered the wrong room. He knew that even with all the influence he had, the Dragon Palace Hotel wouldn’t typically offer this room to him. Glancing at their guide, Dave wanted to ask how they secured such an exclusive space, but he hesitated. He didn’t want to appear unsure in front of Leo, who might seize the opportunity to show off in front of Hera.

When Hera entered the room, she smiled like a child stepping into an air-conditioned mall for the first time after a long stay in the countryside. Although she was excited and looked around eagerly, she did so discreetly. The private room exuded the same classy feel as the rest of the restaurant but was more sophisticated and warm. Snow willow branches adorned the shelves in simple yet elegant transparent vases that glistened with a rainbow hue, giving off a pearl-like glow. The snow willow branches, which bloomed like small cherry blossoms, filled the room with a subtle flowery fragrance. The floor-to-ceiling window offered a perfect view of the city, completing the enchanting atmosphere.

Since the restaurant featured a revolving design, guests would have a perfect view of the entire city by the time they finished their meal. However, the private room 1 offered more than just a panoramic cityscape. There was also a massive telescope designed for stargazing. The telescope was so large that a person had to recline on a cushioned chair specifically attached to it. Hera had only seen such telescopes on TV or in advanced observatories, and she knew it must have cost millions, if not billions, to acquire. The whole space seemed purpose-built for stargazing, allowing the room’s occupant to stop the revolving restaurant at specific angles for optimal views of the stars from every direction.

This place was indeed created by Hera’s father for her mother, who loved watching the stars. However, the city’s light pollution made it nearly impossible to enjoy a clear, starry night. To remedy this, her father transformed the top of the hotel into an observation deck. Back then, the restaurant was located on a different floor.

Once a month, her parents would go to the top floor of the hotel to lounge and wait for nightfall, using the advanced observation tools to observe the galaxy. After their death, Hera’s grandfather couldn’t bear to visit the space where he would miss his son and daughter-in-law, yet he didn’t want to let it go to waste. So, he transformed it into a revolving restaurant, ensuring that Private Room 1 remained a personal space for Hera, allowing her to view the stars like her mother did.

They placed all the important items her parents used in Private Room 1, but it didn’t look cramped because the room was so large, occupying almost half of the entire revolving restaurant. This limited the number of tables and private rooms available to other guests. For decades, no one had stepped into this room—no guests, not even her grandfather. Only those who occasionally cleaned the room had been inside, ensuring everything remained in perfect condition. The big telescope was positioned in the middle of the room, the dining table a few meters away from it, and a classy black grand piano stood nearby.

This arrangement would allow Hera to enjoy listening to performances while dining. On the other side of the room, a circular couch provided a comfortable spot for everyone to relax and spend time together while waiting for nightfall, when they could enjoy stargazing.

The restaurant barely underwent any renovation because the designers followed the original design, only adding a few more details and chairs. Hera’s father had put a lot of thought into creating this entire place according to her mother’s taste and preferences. This is why her parents’ love story was envied by many women both within and outside their country. Hera’s father always ensured he gave her mother surprises and performed many romantic gestures, making her fall even more in love with him each time.

Hera and the others were led to their table and, once comfortably seated, were handed menus by the hostess, who then stepped back. Dave still hadn’t had a chance to ask his question, being taken aback by the setup of the room. It was widely known in their circle that this revolving restaurant held a deep significance for the Avery couple. However, due to the pain of losing both his son and daughter-in-law, Old Master Avery had turned the place into a revolving restaurant. While this allowed people to enjoy the amazing space, his true intention was to ease his own pain.

Even Old Master Avery’s granddaughter had yet to set foot in this place; Dave had only heard bits and pieces about a special room that used to be the couple’s private spot. That’s why there were so many people eager to dine here, often waiting a long time for reservations. Over time, this place had become a hotspot for couples celebrating special occasions, hoping their love story would mirror that of the Averys. Many chose to propose in this revolving restaurant or celebrate their wedding anniversaries here.
