That’s where she had dinner with Nick Cage.
When the boss got the news, he immediately came down from upstairs as if he were facing a big enemy, bent 90 degrees and said in trepidation, “Did Mr. Cage wanted to clear the house?”
Regardless of the other people who were eating inside.
“No.” Nick Cage’s voice was low and oppressive.
Veronica Parker said hurriedly, “I had a reservation. The last name was Parker.”
The boss immediately called the manager to asked about the number of the table so he personally brought Nick Cage and Veronica Parker to the table as per their process.
They entered the restaurant and sat.
She said generously, “You can ate whatever you wanted. You may ordered anything you wanted to eat.”
He glimpsed her showed her affection in his black eyes.
“What was your order?” She smiled and buried his head in the menu.
Did he had no intention of getting drunk? After we ate, she might as well went straight back to the apartment. No, she can’t escaped even if she went back to the apartment.
“I’d like to order.”
She stared at the menu, her gums were still aching, and she felt nervous of a nice food he might ordered.
It was not a good time to treat to dinner.
After they ordered, two people were waiting to be served.
Nick Cage’s meal definitely mouth-watering.
Even if other guests arrived first, they stayed close to him and arrived on time.
Veronica Parker didn’t eat any food. She drank the porridge. Her gums didn’t hurt anymore but she drank it slowly.
She ordered three cups for herself.
He looked at her.
She felt a sudden awkwardness. She ignored and looked up at him weakly. “What were you doing?” She asked then continued to drink with your head down. While she drank slowly, his naughtyhand reached out, “Oh!”
She shooked, frowned and swallowed the food in her mouth tried to ripped his hand off her leg.
his hands got tightened and pressed her leg firmly.
She was disappointed to him. She flustered and felt helpless. She thought that person restless while he ate a meal.
“Did you like this?” his voice was low and hoarse.
The dangerous atmosphere left her nowhere to hide. “Mm-hmm.”
“Had you eaten before?”
“I’d ate it somewhere else.” She can’t say she hadn’t. Had you ever ordered so much at once?
After she had finished, Nick Cage released her hand grabbed the chair and pulled it towards him.
She was in dazed. He could pull her with one hand. He can still pull her even if she was sitting and moving on her seat. It would took a lot of strength.
But I thought this strength was nothing compared to tearing the roof by hand. I still had a lingering fear when I thought about it.
Veronica Parker’s seat didn’t stop until it was pulled to the side of Nick Cage.
Every time she moved her elbow she can touched Nick Cage.
“Why were you eating so close?” She asked.
When she was steady, the shadow covered her, gave her no chance to escape.
As she breathed and her thin lips were only a millimeter from her mouth. There was a voice at the door. “Was Mr. Cage in there?”
She was frightened then hurriedly turned her face and pushed Nick Cage away and sat up straight. She was blushing as if she were a thief.
Nick Cage who looked disturbed suddenly his face became cold.
As soon as Veronica Parker calmed down, she thought that voice seemed familiar.
“May I came in? I’m Veronica Parker’s sister.”
Veronica Parker listened to the voice through the door. “Clare Parker? What was she doing here?”
“I couldn’t get in. I was stopped by a bodyguard outside.” Clare Parker explained.
Veronica Parker went to see Nick Cage’s face looked cold as ice.
“Veronica Parker called Toby Cage the other day. I wanted to know what she said to made Toby Cage unyielding.” Clare Parker’s voice came in.
Veronica Parker was shocked and at the table suddenly became cold which became more frightened just now.
Subconsciously Nick Cage came into the scene. The ambiance was chilling that it could reached up to your spine.
“Mr. Cage was eating and no one was allowed to came in.” The bodyguard gave an unkind warning.
Clare Parker was stopped outside the door and the bodyguards blocked the way which made everyone impossible to came in.
It seemed that she did not force herself to enter she turned around then left.
Veronica Parker listened to the sound of Clare Parker’s high-heeled shoes when was leaving and she wasn’t relaxed at all.
The goal of not being far away from Clare Parker had been achieved.
Why not made a call to him and told him what she wanted.
Obviously, it’s for Nick Cage.
She tightened her nerves and carefully she stuffed a piece of beef into Nick Cage’s plate. “This was delicious.”
He was looking down and it pervaded the ambiance. Her sweet action was ignored by him.
A sharped black eyes looked as if he gave her a pass through. “Didn’t you need to explain something?”
“Explanation was just a cover-up. No, I didn’t call. I couldn’t believe you’ve checked my phone.” She concealed her distressed.
“Did you checked my assistant’s cell phone?” He looked at her coldly and there was silence.
She was scared that she didn’t believe that he bugged her phone otherwise this would had happened a long time ago. She made a phone call from her assistant’s cell phone and she glanced at it. Initially, it was uncomfortable to had a toothache and then she had to encountered such an awkward situation. “Those who did such an odd move were bored to death.”
His black eyes froze and looked at her dangerously. “What did you just say?”
She realized the unpleasant ambiance and hurriedly changed her tone. “I meant Clare Parker was bored not you! I made a call to Toby Cage because of his cooperation. I wanted to stop the loss in time and not mixed with other emotions. I wanted to solved the problem.”
“So I was the last person you thought of.” his black eyes looked at her coldly and the words were sure.
“No, I didn’t think that way.”
“I bought you a new phone. How did you know Toby Cage’s contact number?” He continued to questioned her.
She was no way out and if she wanted to blurted it out, it seemed that something got stuck in her throat.
“What did you say? That you had never forgotten Toby Cage’s cell phone number?” He asked. Even if it was not intentional, what was the use of her innocence?
“I didn’t store his number.” She still had to answer otherwise He would think of something.
Nick Cage stared at her without saying a word as if to devoured her.
She answered which can be interpreted from the side. There was no number just kept it in mind.
“Toby Cage and her were really fine. It was from the past.”
“Please eat.” He interrupted her coldly and went on with his meal.
She was nervous and didn’t know what’s going on.
It was not that simple to thought it over.
The ambiance ate the table was like in an ice cellar and the terrible atmosphere had not improved at all.
She was still close to him the first to bear the brunt of it! His body did not move at all.
She did not know how to explained to him. For the meantime, she can only drank soup slowly and racked her brains at the same time.
After she drank the third cup, his low and cold voice fell down. “Did eating with me was that hard for you to swallow?”
