Upon catching sight of Mia's cheerful expression in the rearview mirror, a wave of emotions stirred within Timothy. He couldn't believe how happily she was chatting with Dylan!

Suddenly, a twinge of jealousy gnawed at Timothy's heart.

The tension hung thick in the air, so tangible that even the driver beside him seemed to shrink into his seat. If he hadn't been the one behind the wheel, he might have preferred to be in the other car instead.

Despite the tense atmosphere, Mia decided to brush it aside and carry on her conversation with Dylan as if nothing was amiss.

Meanwhile, Dylan remained oblivious to Timothy in the passenger seat. With his extensive experience in the entertainment industry, Dylan knew that lacking the foresight and determination to seize opportunities could hinder his advancement.

Indeed, some opportunities were meant to be fought for.

An hour later, they arrived at the restaurant.

Dylan kindly held the door open for Mia, remarking, "Mia, this restaurant has recently added some incredibly tasty new dishes to their menu. You'll see what I mean once you try them later."

As Mia stepped out of the car, she caught sight of Timothy exiting from the passenger seat. Sensing the tension radiating from him, Mia pretended not to notice and continued walking toward the restaurant with Dylan.
