Left with no choice, Maureen finally picked up her rice.

While eating with her head down, Gareth noticed she was wearing a high–necked long–sleeved top today. Despite the air conditioning indoors, such clothing couldn’t withstand the heat outside.

“You should bring a jacket. That collar must be stuffy around your neck.”

“Mhm.”

Maureen lowered her head further, hiding the marks on her

skin.

He summoned a waiter with a gesture. After brief instructions, the waiter soon arrived at their private booth with red wine.

“Compliments of the house for both of you.”

Without waiting for Gareth or Maureen’s agreement, the waiter stepped forward to pour wine into Maureen’s glass.

At his refusal, the waiter jerked his hand. The entire glass spilled all over Maureen.

“It’s fine, I’ll handle it.”

Maureen fumbled awkwardly.

As red wine had splashed onto her neckline, the waiter unfastened her collar button to clean it.
