    "Ravne Beauty set to hold its opening today with one scent," Jane read the trending headline out loud from her phone.She smiled softly, and Dravyn squeezed her hand.

    Dravyn didn't care about the shock on their faces when he announced he would be eating with Jane.They were still staring at him when he walked over to Han and grabbed the bag with the biggest flask. He brought out the flask, placed it gently on the table, and then started setting everything up."Jane, let's eat," he said again, lifting his head from the table.Jane walked over slowly, her face carrying a look of amusement that made Dravyn chuckle. She sat down, and he handed her a spoon. He heard a rustle behind him and knew it would be Han and Betty scurrying to get their own food.

It had been a meeting after meeting all day. The only time he had gotten to rest was when Han called him to give a report on how their journey to find an investor had gone."Good. Governor Nathan's project? How is it going?" Dravyn looked at the executive in charge of that project."We are almost done.

    Jane and the others soon left the restaurant when they were done and headed to the first supplier. Jane knew all the major suppliers; she had worked with them before, but now, her fear was whether they would want anything to do with her.They arrived at the first supplier's warehouse, and he politely refused to supply Jane."I am only being polite because we did business in the past and never had any issues," he told Jane.They left the premises, but this time, Jane wasn't feeling disappointed at all.
