When fate plays its hand (Miranda)

Chapter 0023

Realizing that Ransel had been silent, he initiated a conversation. “I heard the Yvonnian food here is delicious. There’s a wide variety of dishes, and everything is authentic. Hans, is there anything you want to try?”

Hansel was neutral about it. “You go ahead and pick the dishes.”

Ever since they’d left the jewelry store, Hansel had been fiddling with hist lighter. His mind was elsewhere.

He recalled how Miranda hadn’t even spared him a glance and walked past him as though he were a stranger. That thought left a crease on his brow.

How dared she treat him like he was invisible? Besides, since she’d moved from Winter’s place, why hadn’t she returned to him? How long was she going to continue acting up?

His mind was in a jumble as he lit his cigarette. Then, he took a long puff.

Calvin decided on a pot roast, duck breast with blackberry sauce, pulled pork, and a must–order seafood dish.

As the dishes were served, the air was filled with a delicious smell. Calvin was starving. The enticing aroma tempted him to dig in, so he took a bite. It was truly amazing.

Meanwhile, Hansel ate slowly and with much difficulty. He didn’t seem happy even though he was enjoying such delectable food.
