The food hadn’t arrived yet, but there were some local fruits purchased upon entering the

Aurelia ate the fruits while chatting with Nancy on WhatsApp simultaneously.

Nancy expressed her objections about her sudden trip.

“All the dishes have been served. Please enjoy your meal.”

After the waiter served the final dish, he addressed them.

“Thank you.” Aurelia nodded at the waiter.
