Nadia shrugged. "Nothing. Just take it as though I'm spouting nonsense. I'm going to have my dinner now. Till
next time."
She strode off in her heels after saying that.
| stood in the sspot in a daze. Her words madefluster. When | walked out of the washroom, | had yet to
cback to my senses. | did not even see Theo standing in the corridor.
| only cback to my senses after walking into his arms and being held by him.
| raised my head and looked at him while in a daze. "What brings you here?"
Theo stroked my face and kissed my forehead. "You weren't back for so long, so | clooking for you because |
was worried something happened." "Why do you look so dispirited? Did you bump into someone?"

In order to not make him worry, | squeezed a smile. "I met a friend. Let's go back and continue with our meal."
We walked back. When Theo and | passed by a private room and heard the sounds of glass breaking coming
from inside, we were both stunned.
The private door was ajar, so we looked in. There were five people in total, a mix of males and females. One of
them looked like Zedd, so | asked Theo unsurely, "Is that Zedd?" Theo frowned but did not say a word.
For sreason, the woman sitting beside Zedd was suddenly slapped by a woman.
The slap cdown at full force and sounded like it hurt real bad.
| looked at the attire of the woman who was slapped, and it looked like Nadia, whom | had bumped into in the
washroom earlier.
After being slapped, not only was she not angry, but she was also smiling happily. She held Zedd's arm with a
smug look on her face.
Her reaction made the woman who just slapped her even more furious. She raised her hand and planned to land
another blow.
"It's so lively in here," | faintly said, pulling Theo inside.
The sudden voice that invaded the space captured the attention of everyone in the private room.
The woman who slapped Nadia had her back turned toward the door the whole time, so | did not know who she
was. When she turned around, | finally saw that it was Cindy.
| was a little stunned. What was going on here?

When Cindy saw Theo, her countenance eased. She lowered her raised hand and put on a pitiable demeanor,
which made her look particularly endearing. "What are you doing here, Theowy?" Theo glanced at her and mildly
replied, * I'm here for dinner."
His gaze then fell on Nadia, who was holding Zedd's arm. He frowned slightly. * What's going on?"
The question was meant for Zedd.
Zedd replied, "What do you mean by that? I'm here to have dinner, of course." "Are you here simply to have
dinner? Zedd Nichols, if you're not happy with me, then be frank. There's no need to use an escort to irk me."
Cindy grew agitated again. This incident seemed to have made her very angry.
Nadia was no pushover and instantly shouted back, "You'd better watch your mouth, Cindy Reed! Stop calling me
an escort. Do you really think you're that pure?"
Seeing that the two women were about to fight, | interrupted them, "There's no need to create a big scene.
Everyone in the restaurant is about to cover to watch. | believe you don't want your private matters to go «
public and becthe talk of the town, Mr. Nichols."
