Minerva quickly went downstairs and turned a corner. She arrived at the restaurant in no time.

When she entered, she saw Janice sitting not far away.

She paused for a moment, recalling that she was in a hurry to meet her as scheduled.

However, when Minerva spotted Janice, she thought of Janice having a meal with friends. Would it be inconvenient to go over at present?

As she was deep in thought, the waiter approached all of a sudden.

"Nice to meet you, Miss. May I..."

Han Minerva came to her senses when she heard this. She smiled faintly at the waiter. "I'm looking for a friend. Thank you."

After that, she walked towards Janice. When Minerva got closer, she realized that Janice was sitting alone.

Didn't she say she's having lunch with a friend? Minerva was a little confused.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Lowell."

Janice had been waiting for Maddox. It had been a while since he had gone to the washroom. He should have come back even if he had to take a dump. Did he refuse to come back because of her? She thought about it and sighed simultaneously.

Out of the blue, she heard Minerva's voice.

Janice saw Minerva standing in front of her at once after coming to her senses.

"It's you," she said disappointedly at Minerva.

Minerva recognized the disappointment in her voice. She thought for a while and spoke. "Miss Lowell, I was in a rush just now. Please forgive me for not asking if it's convenient for me to come over." After saying that, Minerva glanced at the seat opposite Janice. "If it's inconvenient, I'll come back later?"

"It's not necessary, have a seat." Janice smiled bitterly and said, "He probably has left."

Janice thought that he was just using the excuse of going to the bathroom to leave the restaurant.
