Out of nowhere .

Sienna interrupted the moment , raising her phone .

Hearing his agreement .

Sienna brightened instantly , failing to catch the faint trace of irony in his voice .

“ George , are we paying or not !”

“ Will that be cash or card ? ” George asked .

“ Card Sienna replied promptly .

“ Got it , ” George said .
