Fortunately, she did not expose herself in front of Percy.

The waitress let out a sigh of relief and stood to the side of the private room. Even though she did not reveal any flaws, her focus today was solely on serving this private room.

Therefore, she had to stand by the door. She had to be ready to provide service to the guests while also keeping an eye on things.

The waitress remained stationed by the door, watching as the kitchen staff brought out the dishes. She knocked on the door again, "Sir, may I serve the dishes now?"

"Sure." Percy's voice came from inside.

The waitress pushed the door open, signaling the kitchen staff to bring in the exquisite dishes.

As plate after plate of food was placed on the table, the sight left Luca astonished. There were only four of them, yet they had ordered so many dishes. Could they finish it all?

Luke shared the same thought with Luca. He teased Percy, "That's quite a spread. With so many dishes, do you think we'll be able to finish them all?"

Once all the dishes were served, the waitress left. Only the four of them were left in the private room.

Percy picked up the wine bottle and poured it for them. "I might've overordered for four people, but the food serves as a token of my gratitude to Dr. Craw. I wasn't sure what Dr. Craw liked to eat, so I ordered a few extra dishes."

"She doesn't like meatloaf," said Luke.

When Nina heard this, she could not help but exclaim with puzzlement.

Luca also turned to look at Luke. How could he blurt that out?!

Having been friends with Nina for many years, it was well-known that her least favorite dish was meatloaf.

Luca then glanced at Nina, hoping she would not read too much into it.

Nina did not think much of it. She smiled and said, "I was suddenly reminded of a friend who also dislikes meatloaf."

She refrained from mentioning Bianca out of consideration for Luca's feelings.

After all, Luca and Bianca were at odds.
