Begging For A Reconciliation

“Tsk tsk. Look at the lovebirds.”

“Why aren’t you eating?” Bryan asked in concern when he noticed the women’s odd attitude.

The lady with curly hair, Rebecca Patel, forced a smile and said, “It’s all right. I can’t take spicy food.”

Ian said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I selected this restaurant as Sarah likes the food here. I forget to ask for your preferences.”

Rebecca scowled, her eyes glistening as she tried to fight back her tears. While Leah failed to notice the woman’s annoyance, Serena did. She smirked as she realized she had discovered a secret.

She has a weak physique, so I’m worried that she’s unable to adapt to the harsh conditions there. Do keep me informed if there’s an emergency.”
