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.

The owner is the great-grandson of a chef who served the royal palace and earned his second Michelin star at 28 Alex handed the menu to Maeve and said with a warm smile, "You have to try their bone marrow, it's out of this world!" Maeve looked up and smiled. "Well, since you so, I might as well try it. She scanned the menu from top to bottom and drew a tick on a few of her favorite dishes.

"My doctor said I have gastritis, and I don't dare to eat anything too spicy." Maeve waved her hand helplessly. Moreover, her gynecologist also reminded her to pay attention to her diet and eat lighter and more nutritious food. Not long after, the dishes they ordered were served one after another.

Therefore, the head chef asked me to come over and ask. We'll cook it after the two of you confirm that there's no problem with it, the waiter said dutifully.

Alex nodded. "It's fine. You can cook it."

"Wait." Maeve Reese stopped the waiter. "Is it all food cooked with medicinal herbs that pregnant women can't touch?"

The waiter nodded with a smile. "Yes, ma'am. Our restaurant is famous for its use of spices. However, some food may be too strong for people with certain conditions. For example, pregnant ladies. 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.
