Elara glanced at Lysander. Seeing his face devoid of emotion yet sensing the underlying care in his words, she couldn't help but smile helplessly. "She said you didn't seem to be in a good mood and was a bit worried about you. "That's all. No one's badmouthing you. Who could bear to say anything bad about you, anyway?"

Lysander looked at her, then casually placed some food on her plate. Elara, knowing he wasn't in the best mood, coaxed him gently. "Come on, eat. No one's badmouthing you. Really, I swear." "Okay," Lysander replied simply, signaling that he understood. Elara resumed eating.

Lysander finished first, setting down his fork and resting his hand on the back of her chair. He sat quietly, watching her.

It was peak crab season, and as Elara struggled to peel a crab with her slender fingers, her clumsiness was evident. Lysander reached over to take over the task. "Let me do it."

Sitting beside him, Elara watched as he worked. "This is amazing," she said with a smile.

"What is?" he asked while skillfully breaking apart the crab.

Elara's tone turned wistful. "Having you peel crabs for me. I couldn't have dreamed of this."

Lysander glanced at her, exasperated but amused. "Are you hinting at me?" He was always busy and didn't have much time to spend with her.

Elara laughed. "No way. I'm just speaking from the heart. You're so busy, so even just having dinner with you makes me happy. And now, I can't even compliment you without you questioning it?" "Fine, I'll take the compliment," Lysander said, sitting beside her as he continued to peel crabs for her. Not long after, Wyatt's secretary approached them.

The secretary had noticed they were still there and hesitantly walked over. "Excuse me, Lysander."

Lysander looked up. "What is it?"

"Mr. Hawthorne said he'd like to speak with you about something," the secretary said cautiously.

"What could he possibly have to discuss with me? If there's anything, he can just call," Lysander replied curtly.

The secretary's uneasy expression remained.

"Got it," Lysander said, dismissing him.

Elara glanced at Lysander. "Why don't you go ahead?"

"I'll wait for you," Lysander replied.

Elara quickly finished eating and followed Lysander to see his
