Ashton nodded and said to Carson, "Then you can take over this issue!"

After that, Ashton turned around to leave. Obviously, he still trusted his own son.

Seeing this, Carson's expression grew more arrogant. He looked at Fade and Liza and snickered, "Now, will you do it yourself, or should we do it for you?"

"I don't mind if we have to do it though. After all, this lady here looks pretty. I'll do the search on her myself. I think it should feel good," While talking, Carson licked his lips and scanned Liza's body from top to bottom lustfully.

His words and filthy gaze pissed Liza off.

She grabbed her work identification documents and announced loudly, "Are you saying that I can't represent the Michelin headquarters? If so, you're gravely mistaken, because I can."

Carson took a look at Liza's work identification documents, which were written fully in English. He stared at it intently but still did not understand it. He laughed it off, "What is that? Can you really represent the Michelin headquarters? Don't even think about lying to me!"

"Lying to you?" Liza sneered. Then, she took out her phone and started making calls, "Recently, your restaurant is applying to upgrade to a Michelin three-star restaurant, am I right?"

"With this sort of service attitude and behaviour towards customers, don't even think of a three-star Michelin title! You will be stripped of your own two- star Michelin qualifications now," Liza said coldly. Ashton, who was about to leave, halted his footsteps when he heard these words. He turned back and looked sternly at Liza, "You... Who are you? How did you know about our restaurant's application for an upgrade?"

Carson was also slightly stunned. After all, not many people knew about their application for an upgrade.

Liza smirked while waving her work identification documents in her hand, "Look at what I'm holding closely. This is my identity card as an appointed reviewer that was issued by Michelin headquarters. In other words, I am the reviewer who was asked to come to give a rating to your restaurant on behalf of the Michelin headquarters."

Upon hearing this, Ashton was really taken aback. His expression changed drastically.

After all, he knew very well that the Michelin headquarters would indeed send reviewers for unannounced visits to give ratings to restaurants as a major basis for their reviews.

If Liza was really a reviewer from the Michelin headquarters, the upgrade of their Moulin Rouge Restaurant would have gone to waste. It was even possible for their current qualifications to be revoked. Thinking of this, Ashton couldn't help but feel anxious. He glared at his son fiercely and reprimanded, "What's the matter with you?"

Carson was also panicking slightly. He desperately tried to defend himself, "Dad, don't be nervous. This woman said that she is a reviewer from the Michelin headquarters, but that may not be true. I think she is just trying to scare us."

"Scare you?" Liza scoffed and said to Ashton, "As the owner of the restaurant, can't you even recognize the identification documents issued by the Michelin headquarters?"

"This..." Ashton paid close attention to the card in Liza's hand. The more he looked at it, the more he realized that it was real. He started to panic.

At this moment, other guests were looking at their phones. Then, they pointed at Liza and exclaimed, "Liza! You are the well-known gourmet Liza!"

With this, more people recognized Liza and they rushed over excitedly.

"Miss Liza, you have come to Jade City!"

"Miss Liza, I am your fan, can you take a photo with me?"

"Liza, can you recommend a good restaurant to me?"

Despite never meeting Liza in person before, Ashton and Carson both heard of Liza's legacy as a world-famous gourmet.

They were all dumbfounded at the turn of events. A world-class gourmet like Liza would hold utmost authority in the food industry. Setting aside the authenticity of the documents, a single post by her on the Internet would be able to send their restaurant's reputation down the drain.

In addition, an Internet celebrity gourmet like Liza was really likely to be a special reviewer from the Michelin headquarters.

The thought of this left Ashton fuming with anger. After running the restaurant for ten to twenty years, he had spent a huge amount of money to upgrade the restaurant and train the staff. He finally prepared everything with great effort and was ready to upgrade the restaurant to a three-star Michelin restaurant.

He never thought that they would end up disrespecting a reviewer from the Michelin headquarters.

With that, the plan to promote the restaurant into a three-star Michelin restaurant was shattered.

Instantly, Ashton was furious. He glared at his son fiercely and yelled, "You did this? You don't do anything serious all day long, and you're only playing around here and there. Now, you've even disrupted my business, you...!"

Ashton angrily raised his palm, wanting to slap his son in the face.

Carson also knew that he was in trouble. His expression soured, and he quickly turned around to look at Coby and the others for help.

At the same time, he quickly explained to his father, "Dad, don't be impulsive. In fact, this may not necessarily be a bad thing."

"You're still trying to argue with me? You little brat," Ashton was infuriated. He had an urge to beat up his useless son.

Carson quickly explained, "Dad, I did this after discussing it with Young Master Liu and the others since Young Master Liu asked for my help. If I manage to settle this matter well, I will be able to join their social circle. Just think about it, what benefits will it bring to our restaurant?"

Upon hearing this, Ashton's palm froze in mid-air. He looked at his son and asked for affirmation, "Do you mean Coby Liu, from Liu Pharma?"

"Exactly. Apart from Young Master Liu, Young Master Xie, Miss Wang and Young Master Lin are all here too. They all have a good relationship with Young Master Liu. I was just drinking with them just now!"

At that moment, Coby walked over with a confident smile. A group of gorgeously dressed young men and women were following behind him.

"Uncle Cui, you can't blame Carson wholly for this incident. We are also responsible for this. If you want to punish him, include us as well," Coby said lightly.

When Ashton heard him, he immediately said with an apologetic smile, "Young Master Liu, you are flattering me. This is really not a major issue. I won't be punishing anyone here."

"You came to my restaurant, and that is a great honour for me," Ashton's attitude was very respectful, and his expression was flattering.

Coby nodded. Then, he looked at Fade and smirked, "Since we have settled that, Carson, please continue!"

Carson nodded and ordered the security guards, "Come here. Be prepared to conduct the body search."

They already knew Liza's identity, but it was clear that they were not going to stop there. They still wanted to conduct the body search forcefully.

When Ashton saw this, the muscles on his face trembled fiercely. He was in a dilemma and tried to express his concerns, "But this..."

Carson understood his father's concerns. He quickly comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. Isn't she just a reviewer? It's not a big deal. Even if our restaurant is no longer a Michelin restaurant, we will still have a bright future ahead of us as long as we have a good relationship with Young Master Liu and the others."

"Moreover, I have already contacted Master Habib. He will be here personally soon," Carson added.
