Return of the Crowned Heiress

Chapter 355

Carmen had been starving, and the moment Felicia sat down, she pushed the menu toward her eagerly. “I already ordered my favorites, but it’s your turn now. Go wild, and don’t even think about holding back!

Their time spent together had made them close, and Felicia didn’t hesitate. She skimmed the menu and ordered without a second thought.

The waiter came by to collect the menu and poured them both drinks. Soon, the fragrant stew arrived.

As Felicia dug in, her eyes flickered toward the window several times. Carmen was engrossed in devouring the food and didn’t notice a thing.

“This is amazing!” Carmen exclaimed between bites, her mouth slightly red from the spice. She breathed, cooling her tongue, and downed her drink. When she looked up, she noticed Felicia shutting the window.

‘Why close it? Isn’t it hot in here?”

“To keep bugs out,” Felicia replied casually.

Her explanation was reasonable, and Carmen didn’t think twice about it.

The two of them devoured the stew, almost licking the bottom of the pot clean. After Carmen paid the bill, they were about to leave the restaurant when Felicia stopped her.
