The meal was so uncomfortable that I felt like I was sitting on pins and needles, in I barely ate anyth
Meanwhile, they ate and drank, and later even ordered more dishes. It was as if they had never seen food before, starting their mouths non–stop.
I felt disgusted just watching them, so I lowered my gaze and passed the time in silence.

Dexter said, “We can’t go tomorrow–let’s do Monday instead. You’re always busiest on Mondays, so take them. I beng you the documents and info then.
Seeing how eager he was, I let out a sigh of relief and nodded. “Alright.”
