Chapter 125 Cynthia's POV It was noon when I arrived at the restaurant Nikolai had chosen — a small French bistro tucked away on a quiet street downtown, the kind of place that catered to people who valued privacy and discretion over being seen. The maître d' recognized my name immediately and led me to a corner table where Nikolai was already waiting. "Cynthia," he said warmly, taking my hand and kissing it briefly. "You look beautiful." "Thank you," I said, settling into the chair he'd pulled out for me. "This place is lovely. Very intimate."

he asked, his hand sliding down to the small of her back as he guided her inside. She paused in front of the glass doors, the cold air biting her nose. The restaurant name glowed brightly, flooding its light onto the street. Nouveau Table. She glanced at Calix and he looked so innocently nervous, stealing glances at her and she felt her stomach clench uncomfortably. Wherever Ilana went, she brought destruction with her. This job was no different.

Mother has her faults— a lot of them, actually, but this restaurant is something good to admire her for. I pull my hoodie down even more, hoping that no one would recognize me or my scent. Although the way I smell must have been altered a bit, but still! Before I left the house, I had taken one of my favourite books with me to come and read over here. Fishing into my back pack, I brought it out. The Silent Twin by Caroline Mitchell. An old favourite. A waiter came to my table and stopped. “Ma’am?” “Ma’am? I’m sorry, but you have been here for over fifteen minutes. You cannot stay here for more than ten minutes without ordering a meal. Are you going to order something, please?” He asked polit

For the first time, Cathedra had someone who didn't cringe every time she opened her mouth to speak. So this is what having a friend feels like, huh? Cathedra thought to herself. One lunch break, while waiting for Diane underneath the tree, Cathedra was scribbling a draft of her first novel in her notebook. The novel contained the scenes she saw in the storybook, back in her kindergarten days. Since that day at kindergarten, she didn't tell anyone what she saw in the storybooks anymore. The thought of seeing things that other people couldn't still terrified her but she tried hard not to think about it by avoiding any book she can see other than school books and textbooks.

"Ah, I know! You must not know the restaurant that just opened three days ago, right? It's across the street from this building. Just go there." Arleena was actually just talking as an alibi. But Arleena realized she had to quickly catch Merliana's return conversation. "Really? Does that restaurant serve meat steaks?" asked Arleena, forced to play along to support her alibi. Merliana nodded her head. "Of course. It's a meat steakhouse. You should try it." Arleena nodded her head. Before she could reply, someone called her name. "Arleena! You haven't eaten lunch at all?!"

I muse. He places his hand on the small of my back and ushers me inside the restaurant. We are shown to our seats in a hidden corner by the window. The Waitress takes our order politely rushing us as the kitchen's already starting to close up for the night. I order the ‘Surf and Turf’, medium rare with fries and a salad. Sanz orders a full rack of sticky Fall-off-the-bone-ribs with roasted vegetables. “So…. You wanted to talk?” He asks, placing both his hands on the table clasped together.

Instead of teasing Blake, she changed the conversation to where they would have lunch. “I heard there was a new restaurant downtown that is supposed to have the best seafood if you’re interested,” Sara said, looking at Blake’s profile as he drove. She looked upon his face and was moved that he was very handsome and thought it would be wonderful to be his wife. “Sure, let’s do that. Downtown, you said? Is it the Captain’s Peer? That’s a five-star restaurant that was featured in Forbe’s magazine. They opened about a month ago and are already famous for their blowfish dish.” Blake commented on the restaurant looking at the traffic.

Stephanie knew that this private room was not something that ordinary people would book, it required both money and connections, and Elsie wasn’t ordinary. “I love it.” Elsie grinned. “I know you would like it, this restaurant was built by Nathan Robinson, three years ago when you were still abroad.” Hearing this, Stephanie heart skip a bit, even after all this years, whenever Nathan Robinson name was mentioned, her heart always fluttered. Just then a waiter came to take their order. “Bring us your signature dishes!” Elsie ordered. The waiter nodded and left. Elsie turned to Stephanie and her group, “trust me you will like their signature dishes.”

Chapter 22. They reached their designated location, it was a lavish five-star Italian restaurant called Antonios. The restaurant was new, only a few months old but had made a lot of impact that many influential people would always come to eat there. Skye walked to her side and opened Scar's door, holding his hand out for her to take, which she did, "What a gentleman." She commented with a giggle. "Why thank you milady, " He did a small bow grinning from ear to ear.

"Rose, are you free? There's a new restaurant on Abbeys Street. The sashimi is all delivered from abroad on the same day! Let's try it together this evening!" Just as Rose was about to say that she didn't eat raw food, another male voice interrupted, "It's full of parasites, aren't you afraid of getting sick eating it? Miss Reed, I know a fine-dining restaurant where the chefs are from abroad and serve the best pan-fried Foie Gras. They are rated five-star, and there are piano performances included in the dinner. Would you spare me your evening?" This time, the voice belonged to John from the sales department. The previous morning, they had both given her a gift after meeting her. She wasn't
