Chapter 24

Connor took Flora to the Grand Duke Hotel. It’s the most eye–catching hotel in Cedarvale, rumored to have a powerful owner behind the scenes, whose identity remains a mystery to this day. Even the most privileged guests must make a reservation to dine here.

At the moment, the manager was eagerly following beside Connor, nodding and bowing in a flattering manner.

“Mr. Connor, why didn’t you say you were coming? I would have arranged everything in advance.”

“It was a last–minute decision. No need for special arrangements, just the usual will do, Connor said nonchalantly, holding Flora’s wrist gently.

The manager escorted Connor to his private dining room, asking respectfully “Mr. Connor shall we prepare the usual dishes for you?” “Bring some spicy dishes, and some desserts that girls generally love.”

Flora was taken aback upon hearing this. She loved spicy food, while Connor preferred lighter flavors.

In her past life, she had despised Connor and even caused him to be hospitalized after making him drink a pot of extremely spicy soup. Feeling a pang of guilt, Flom quickly said to the manager, “Please add some light–flavored dishes, with less spice and salt, and without garlic or cilantro.”

Connor stared at Flora in astonishment, wondering how she knew his preferences.

The manager, with a curious glance at Flora, mused to himself. There were rumors that Mr. Connor had peculiar tastes since no woman had ever been seen with him before.

He could tell Connor’s attitude toward this girl was extraordinary, filled with barely concealed affection.
