Chapter 15 - Thomas Stops Calling Her Kid
Two years after the incident, Emma became majority owner.
Thomas remained general manager.
He still corrected her constantly.
One night she changed the reservation software without asking him.
He stared at the screen.
“You have made war with the host stand.”
“It’s more efficient.”
“It has three extra buttons.”
“Progress.”
“Disaster.”
Emma smiled.
Thomas stopped calling her “kid” in front of employees.
Mostly.
The restaurant had a staff council now.
Tip and service-charge policies were visible.
Large event contracts showed how discounts affected labor distributions.
No system depended on trust alone.

Arthur would have hated the extra paperwork.
He would have liked the transparency.
