The Drunken Divine’s Dwelling was the largest private restaurant in Coast City. Their service was excellent, and their dishes were full of color and flavor. It was only open to exclusive customers and reservations needed to be made a month in advance. 

Mary had managed to pull a few strings to get their number yesterday. 

The layout of the restaurant was also very elegant. Each seat was separated by a screen and a small wooden door had been constructed in the front. The top was not sealed so that when dinner was underway, the chandelier at the top would create a full atmosphere. The imagery was quite like when people of the olden days partook in drinking under the moon. 

They pushed opened the door and entered before taking a seat at once at the round table. 

The waiter soon arrived with the menu. 

Rosalie was afraid that the little girl beside her would not be able to relax and completely focused her attention on her. She would give her some food from time to time and wipe her mouth. 

Sitting on the other side, Lucian and Nox watched the little girl eating with bulging cheeks and found her incredibly adorable. They graciously deshelled shrimps for her. 

The little girl could not stop chewing as they fed her nonstop. She was absorbed in getting through the little hill that was piling higher and higher in front of her. 

“Have you heard that the little princess of the Lawrence family has gone missing? The Lawrences have sent a large group of people to search through Coast City, but they haven’t found her yet!” 

A faint voice of discussion sounded from the seat next door just then. 

Then another voice which was a little more cautious, “Is it possible that she has been kidnapped? The perpetrator sure is bold. The little princess of the Lawrence family is Byron Lawrence’s pearl, he had always adored her to death, yet they dared make a move on her. They’re really asking for it…” 

Hearing Byron’s name, Rosalie’s movement slowed down unconsciously, and she was distracted. 

The discussion next door continued, “Don’t I know it. Although the little princess is nonverbal and hasn’t spoken ever despite her age, you can’t deny her luck, she was still born into such a good life!”
