She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)

When Daniel and Josie's car was trapped on the road by an accident, Donovan's Restaurant was still open. After all, the restaurant closed at nine p.m.

However, at nine o'clock, there were still many customers who had not finished dining. Therefore, the restaurant would wait for the customers to finish while cleaning up the kitchen.

At this moment, the receptionist found Arthur. "There's a girl at the entrance who has been loitering outside for over two hours. She even told us she came to our restaurant from Vredo City to eat, but she accidentally lost her phone. "She also said she can't remember her home number as she usually uses the shortcut to call home. She asked if we could let her eat on credit and she would pay us back double another day.

"We didn't say yes, but we gave her water and snacks, telling her to come back another day. However, she refused to leave. She said she's starving and wants us to make an exception."

Arthur looked at the surveillance camera at the door and noticed the girl was dressed quite well. She did not seem to be inexperienced. His intuition told him that she was a liar.

"Ignore her," he said, "If she doesn't have a phone anymore or money, can't she call the police? Besides, why would someone come from Vredo City to eat our food? Moreover, why wouldn't she leave if she couldn't eat here?" The receptionist nodded. "That's what we thought. Let's leave her be then."

An hour later, all the customers had left, and the restaurant was almost cleaned up. Arthur checked the door, windows, taps, switches, and other things one last time.

He was about to leave when he saw the woman in the white dress still loitering outside the entrance of the restaurant on the surveillance camera. He frowned, wondering what the woman was doing.

He thought, 'She must have been here for almost three hours, right? Is she scouting the restaurant out?'

Thinking of this, he quickly walked to the door and pulled it open. He said to the girl, "Lass, our restaurant is closed. It's late. Hurry up and go back. Don't stay here."

The girl turned to look at him and clutched her stomach pitifully. "But I'm starving. I can't walk anymore."

Under the light at the entrance, Arthur saw the girl's oval face, large eyes, tanned skin, and striking facial features. She looked like she was blessed and was unlikely to be poor. Arthur concluded that such a woman wouldn't be so poor as to starve.

However, he did not argue with her. He suggested, "How about I buy barbecue wings from the restaurant at the intersection and coffee for you? You can go home after eating them, okay?" "No!" The pretty girl shook her head and clutched her stomach. "I came to eat at Donovan's Restaurant. Other than the restaurant's food, I don't want to eat anything else."

as he thought this, the girl's stomach growled. Moreover, her voice was weak. Arthur decided she was really hungry. He could not help but ask, "If you can't eat here tonight, what will you do?"
