As the two women discussed dishes at the restaurant, they gradually walked away. Clover and Miles, who were still glaring at each other, suddenly lost their interest in staying behind. They turned around to hurry after Rose and Emily. "I'm hungry too. I'll join," Clover said with a smile.

"Rosie, a friend of mine owns that restaurant. I'll get him to recommend some dishes for us," Miles enthusiastically suggested.

Clover retorted, "Ha! We can order for ourselves. We don't need any recommendations."

Miles responded, "Oh, I was just planning to recommend them to Rosie, not you."

"Mr. Miles..."

"Mr. Xanth..."

As the two continued to bicker, Rose felt a headache coming on.

"Ha... Emily, is this how Clover usually behaves?" Rose asked Emily as she shot Clover a weird look.
