Chapter 461 She Is Ignoring Me

Levi gazed at her quietly. “No, but I’m acquainted with the owner.”

The owner?

“Kate?” Just then, a middle-aged woman with a mature charm came out of the restaurant, immediately recognizing Kathleen.

Kathleen froze, an inexplicable sense of familiarity rising within her the moment her gaze fell on the middle-aged woman before her eyes.

 
 
 

Mila gave her a faint smile. “My name is Mila Hunt. I’m a close friend of Wynnie. You used to love my cooking.”

Kathleen blinked a few times before responding, “Hello, Mdm. Hunt.”

“I had no idea you two knew each other, Mdm. Hunt.” Levi remained composed as he flashed a smile at Mila.

Glancing at him, Mila asked indifferently, “Mr. Levi, what are you doing here again?”

“Mdm. Hunt, I’m here to—”

“You’ve just had lunch here earlier, Mr. Levi. You shouldn’t come here again for dinner,” said Mila tonelessly.

Levi immediately turned to look at Kathleen.

Despite not fully understanding the conflict between Levi and Mila, Kathleen knew that this was her cue to step in.

Clearing her throat, she explained, “Mdm. Hunt, Levi is my friend. He came to Jadeborough on a business trip and dropped by to visit me. I was hoping to treat him to a meal, so…”

“Oh, I see. Come in, then!” Mila invited them in graciously the moment she heard Kathleen’s words.

Levi was overjoyed.

He had no idea Kathleen’s words and presence had such an effect.

Kathleen merely gazed at him speechlessly before following Mila into the restaurant.

“What would you and your children like to eat, Kate?” asked Mila with a smile after showing them to their seats.

“I have no idea.” Indeed, Kathleen had no plans, nor did she know what the signature dishes of the restaurant were.

“Allow me to decide for you guys, then.” Mila smiled kindly.

“I’d like to have Sizzle Steak.” Unlike Kathleen, Levi seemed to be very clear on what he would like to order.

Everyone turned their gaze toward him.

“That’s a limited-edition dish that you’ve already had earlier, so it’s only available for Kate and the kids now,” stated Mila bluntly.

“That’s fine, too. I just want them to try it,” Levi replied nonchalantly.
