The waitress apologized, “Sorry, miss, but this spot is reserved. They’re in the bathroom right now.”
Well, this is awkward. Queenie took the spot beside the window seat. She couldn’t have a full view of
the scenery, but at least the vista was still okay.
“I think we should get ourselves a room.” Nigel suggested. He didn’t like having his meals in the
common area.
“But I like the common area. Queenie loved lively places, and she didn’t want to stay in a room alone
with him. Guess there’s nothing I can do about that. Nigel then pulled back the chair opposite her and
sat down.
She skimmed through the menu. Wow, the food costs a lot. She ordered a few of her favorites and

The food here was great, but the portions were minuscule. But since he has ordered a ton, I can now
eat all I want. After that, the waiter poured two glasses. of wine for them. Queenie held up the glass
and took a sip as she enjoyed the sunset view.
The beauty mark under her eyes stood out like a little glowing obsidian. Nigel was sipping on bis wine
as well, but
instead of the sunset, he was enjoying the view of the lady before him. He couldn’t believe the kiss just

strong physical reaction.
That never happened before. Even when he had a crush on Anastasia, he felt more respect than
affection for her, so he had never touched her before. However, when Queenie said he wasn’t straight,
he just felt the need to prove that he was indeed into women, and the kiss was the best way to go.
Queenie noticed someone coming out of the restroom, and she looked at them, but all it did was stoke
her hatred. What a coincidence. It just has to be them that we run into out of all the people out there.
Bonnie was holding Leslie’s hand, coming back to their spot with her head. held high like a proud
peacock. Just as she was about to flip her hair with her other hand, her movement froze when her eyes

as well, “Hello, Mr. Manson. We meet again.”
Nigel frowned at the couple. He disliked. getting disturbed. “We should go back to our table now.”
Leslie tried to take Bonnie back to their table.
She purposely evaded Leslie’s touch stiffly but then willingly returned to her seat after a brief
contemplation. After all, it was facing Nigel. She could still impress him right over her spot. ‘Dad and
Mom are worried about you, Queenie. Come home. Please don’t make them worry, alright?” She put

Nigel clenched his glass and narrowed his eyes. She’s going home?
Leslie looked upset as well. Never thought she’d be capable enough to date someone like Nigel. He’s
uber-rich. He also noticed how Bonnie was staring at Nigel from time to time.
