Chapter 559
Elizabeth let out a sigh and asked, โHow do you know me?โ
The waitress hesitated, then gave an awkward smile. โMs. Percy, weโd love for you to try our restaurant. If you singโฆ appreciate it, if you could spread the word.โ She added, โOh, and todayโs special is foie gras. Itโs amazingโfresh ingredients, made to order.โ
At the mention of foie gras, Elizabethโs stomach growled loudly. Elizabeth had seen a lot in her life, but this foie gras was calling her name!
โSure!โ she said with a slight smile. She couldnโt resist foie gras!
โRight this way!โ The waitress led her to a table.
Elizabeth asked, โDid someone give up their seat for me?โ For some reason, she had a hunch that was the case. Otherwise, why would the waitress chase after her?
โKind of,โ the waitress replied, not hiding anything.
Elizabeth frowned, starting to wonder, โWho would give up their seat for me?โ As they headed upstairs, they passed someone coming out of the elevator. Elizabeth glanced at the personโs back and paused. She thought she recognized an old friend.
โKyle?โ she said, surprised.
The waitress immediately asked, โMs. Percy, you know Mr. Brooks?โ
Elizabeth was taken aback. โSo it really is Kyle?โ She went upstairs as he left. Did Kyle give up his seat for her? She didnโt think Kyle was that generous.
The elevator stopped on the third floor, and Elizabeth was led to a room separated by a screen. โPlease, take a look at the menu,โ the waitress said, handing it over.
โDid Kyle give up his seat for me?โ Elizabeth asked while flipping through the menu. The waitress was busy with a walkie-talkie and didnโt hear her. โSorry, could you repeat that?โ
Elizabeth thought for a moment, then shook her head and let it go. โThis foie gras is limited to one serving per person. Each serving has two small pieces,โ the waitress explained.
Elizabeth ordered one serving and a few other interesting dishes. Soon, the waitress left.
Elizabethโs phone buzzed with a message.
Kyle: [Enjoy your meal.]
Elizabeth gripped her phone, realizing Kyle had given up his seat for her.
Elizabeth: [Did you see me?]
Kyle: [Ms. Percy looks so beautiful today; itโs hard not to notice.]
Elizabeth: [You can join me.]
After all, he gave up his seat for her. Sheโd feel bad if he didnโt eat.
Kyle: [No, thanks.]
Alright, if he said no, she wouldnโt push it. Sheโd just enjoy his share too!
Kyle saw the message and sighed. Alexander was still around. If he joined Elizabeth, it would only make Alexander angrier. And that would leave him with nowhere to go in this city!
