After leaving the hospital, Alex drove Maeve to a high-class privite restaurant. Worried she would feel uncomfortable, Alex chose an elegant seat by the window on the third floor. It was covered by a hollow room divider which gave a hint of privacy. The place was only open three days a week and had to be booked in advance, there were not many customers.

Some of our ingredients can pose a threat to fetal development. Most of their customers were rich or noble, so they had to be careful with what they served.
