Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 246: We Go to the Same University

Aurora entered the elegantly designed room with Jason and Eric, each detail exuding an antique charm.

"Miss Montgomery, please," Jason said with chivalrous deference, always yielding to Aurora.

Julian scoffed inwardly, labeling him a clown.

As the trio took their seats, Jason offered, "Miss Montgomery, please take a look and see what you'd like to eat. It's your choice today." He handed the menu to Aurora.

"No need, Mr. Gilpin can decide; I'm not picky," Aurora responded politely.

"Then I'll order a few things," Jason said as he began to order. Aurora hadn't found anything odd initially, but she subtly changed expression as Jason ordered dishes-all of which were her favorites. What was going on?

Although it was strange, Aurora wasn't about to outright ask why he only chose her favorite dishes.

"Miss Montgomery, is there anything else you'd like to add?" Jason asked after placing the orders.

"No, this is fine," Aurora replied, waving her hand dismissively. She was indeed hungry, especially after the rough time she'd had earlier with Julian.

"Eric, would you like to add anything?" Jason asked, turning to Eric after Aurora had responded.

"A banana split," Eric requested.

Aurora glanced at him, amused that a grown man would favor such a sweet dessert, though she kept her thoughts to herself.

Waiting for the food was always the hardest part, especially since she was not very familiar with Jason, and Eric, a competitor, was also present.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward; Aurora decided to offer some coffee she had bought earlier to Jason and Eric.
