"You know I can’t go back yet. There are still four days," Anita said unhappily as she listened to Owen.
"Okay, time flies. I’ll pick you up at the airport when you get back," Owen said quickly when he saw that Anita didn’t look too happy.
"Okay, then it’s settled. You have to pick me up at the airport when the time comes," Anita said with a smile as she looked at Owen in the video.
Owen said nothing and nodded with a smile.
"Anita, are you done?" Owen heard the sudden male voice in the video and the figure that flashed by, but before Owen saw what he looked like, the man left the screen.
"Owen, I won’t talk to you anymore. I have something going on." Anita glanced at Owen in the video and hung up hurriedly.
Anita had never hung up on him so anxiously before. Owen stared at the phone for a moment, then put the phone away and started working on his day.
"Ethan, what’s wrong?" After Anita hung up the phone, she asked Ethan, who was standing behind her.
"Nothing. I just wanted to ask if you wanted to eat together?" Ethan asked Anita.
"Okay, what are we going to eat?" Anita smiled and said quickly.
"Let’s eat at the hotel today. I heard that their Cornwall dishes are very famous. Let’s try them," Ethan said with a smile as he looked at Anita. freёwebnoѵel.com
"Let’s go, then. I’ll put my things back in my room first," Anita said and walked out.
Ethan followed Anita forward.
Last night, he rejected Anita’s invitation and thought about it for a long time in his room, but he still couldn’t think of a good way to make himself forget Anita. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
The night passed while his imagination ran wild. When he woke up in the morning, he was dizzy. He barely made it through the morning exchange after drinking a few cups of coffee.
He planned to hurry back to his room and leave after the exchange meeting, but he didn’t expect to see Anita video call someone in the venue just after he took two steps.
Although he didn’t know who was on the other end of the phone, he could guess it from Anita’s coquettish and blissful look. That look pained him even more.
He knew that he shouldn’t continue to act like this, but when he saw Anita being so close to someone else, he still couldn’t control himself. That was why he had suddenly called Anita.
"Ethan, what’s wrong? Let’s go quickly. We have an exchange in the afternoon." Anita took a few steps and saw that Ethan did not follow her, so she quickly turned around and said.
"Yes, I’m coming." Ethan turned around and hurriedly chased after Anita.
The two of them lived a few floors apart, so Ethan accompanied Anita as she put her things back in the room.
Then, the two of them went to the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. This was the first time they had come to the hotel’s restaurant to eat. As soon as they entered, they were shocked by the decor.
The entire restaurant was in a classic British style. It was simple and elegant.
The two of them stood at the door for a while and were led to their seats by the waiter.
"This is the menu. You can see what you want to eat," the waiter said and placed the menu in front of Anita.
Anita didn’t know much about British food. She flipped through it twice and closed it. Then, she looked at the waiter standing beside her and said, "Please give us recommendations. What are the specialties here?"
The waiter nodded and said, "The Wellington Beef is a specialty. It’s made from beef with foie gras and baked at a high temperature. It tastes crisp and delicious. I recommend you to try it."
Anita could imagine the scene when she heard the waiter’s words, so she looked at Ethan and asked, "Let’s try it. Are there any other recommendations?" Ethan knew what Anita wanted, so he looked at the waiter and smiled.
"There’s also the Stargazy pie in our shop. It’s a typical Cornwall dish. The main ingredients are sardines, potatoes, and eggs. This is also a specialty food in England. You can try it," the waiter said with a smile.
Hearing the waiter’s recommendation, Anita thought that it was probably very delicious. After all, the name sounded so good. "Stargazy pie", so she didn’t hesitate and said, "Then let’s have the Stargazy pie as well."
"Okay, do you need anything else?" the waiter said happily when he saw that his recommendations had been accepted.
"That’s enough for now. We’ll order more if it’s not enough," Anita said with a smile as she looked at the waiter.
"Okay, please wait a moment," the waiter said as he took the menu and left their seats.
"Ethan, did you eat yesterday? What time were you done with your work?" As soon as the waiter left, Anita asked Ethan.
