Looking at the waitress, Luca wondered if she should tell her that Luke was not fond of fruit juices, no matter how fresh it was.

The moment the glass was put in front of Luke, he took it and put it in front of Luca.

The waitress was surprised, but she smiled. “You’re so considerate to your wife, Sir. Fresh orange juice has Vitamin C, which is good for women’s skin. I’ll bring you another glass.”

When Luca heard that, she said, “It’s fine. He doesn’t like fruit juice.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Luke turned his head to look at her.

How did she know that he did not like fruit juice?

Luke had never told anyone else that he did not like fruit juice. He did not say that when he was in the hospital.

The waitress nodded and said, “I see. You’re so considerate, Madam. Sir, should I get you another drink?”

“It’s fine.” Luke sipped the glass of tap water next to him. He did not point out the waitress’s mistake again.

Luca felt even more awkward as the waitress mentioned her in the same sentence as Luke. She wanted to explain, but seeing that Luke did not say anything, she did not want to make the situation awkward.

The waitress nodded and placed the glass of orange juice at Tommy’s seat. “Have some orange juice, my young guest!”

When Tommy heard that, he turned his head and asked, “Ma’am, what are the names of the two tortoises?”

“They’re Madrid and Manchester,” the waitress answered with a smile. After distributing the orange juice, she set the cutlery on the table.

Luca smiled slightly when she heard that. It seemed that the restaurant owner was a soccer fan, which was why they named the pet tortoises using famous soccer club names.

Luke noticed the smile on Luca’s face. Was she smiling because of the names of the tortoises?
