She said to Charles, "I'm not going back because of all the constant bickering. It's exhausting and draining. | have no desire to live the high society life either. Could you please pass a message to the Olsen family for me? | have no plans of returning, so they need not worry. They should focus on their health." After much hesitation, Charles finally nodded in agreement. He glanced back at the waiter standing behind him.

Meanwhile, as the conversation beclively, Charles informed Josie, "That restaurant is owned by my friend.
The taste is very authentic. You can try it out sometin the future." Upon hearing this, Mallory glanced at the nearby waiter and spoke teasingly, "Mr. Zimmerman, isn't this wrong?

Charles’ face turned somewhat awkward.
Josie quickly smoothed things over. "I'll definitely visit more often in the future, although I might not be in Wavery as frequently." This remark made all three people look up simultaneously.

Looking up, she saw that the "waiter" had already disappeared without a trace, just as she expected.
