The ambiance of the restaurant was quaint yet beautiful.
Bamboo trees lined up the path, interspersed with red flowering plums.
The plants swayed with the gentle breeze, and the refreshing fragrance of bamboo and plum blossoms filled the air.
It was a renowned Chinese restaurant that boasted a unique menu.
People often came to the restaurant just to try its braised pork. Laney had stayed in the hospital for nearly a month.
In the past month, she ate nothing but the bland hospital food provided for patients.
Now, looking at the tempting, meaty dishes made her mouth water.
Laney wasn’t really a fan of meat, but today, she ate twice as much as she usually would.
Garrett had never seen a woman gobble up food like that before.
He had usually been with women from wealthy, noble families.
And those ladies only ate a few bites to maintain their shape.
A faint smile emerged on his face as he watched Laney hog down the food without having a care in the world.
On the other hand, Janet was eating gracefully as Ethan placed one dish after the other on her plate.

"Would you like to have another bite?"
He would smile tenderly and ask her to taste the dishes.
Only after Janet agreed would he fetch the food for her.
The four of them sat face to face.
From afar, they looked like two sweet couples.
Janet was chewing her food.
As she looked up, her gaze met Garrett’s, and realized he was trying to start a conversation with Laney.

However, Laney gave perfunctory answers as if she had no interest in him.
"Mr.Harding is very articulate," Janet joked with a smile.
She was familiar with Garrett now, so she had no inhibitions around him.She found that Garrett was capable of noticing people’s
emotions.
He seemed kind and considerate, which made women fond of him.
Garrett leaned back in his chair and looked at Laney from time to time.
"Miss Garcia saved my life.I am indebted to her.She is my savior."
Janet looked at him and smiled.

She could sense there was definitely chemistry between Garrett and Laney.
However, she continued to eat without voicing her thoughts.
Just then, the door of the restaurant flew open.
A young girl sashayed in.
She looked beautiful and energetic.Her angry gaze fell upon Janet before she turned to look at Garrett.Her jaw tightened, and
she was a picture of pure rage.
She strutted to their table and pointed at Garrett.
"Mr.Harding, you canceled your date with me saying you had something important to do.Is having dinner with another woman
behind my back the important thing you were talking about?"
"Tracey, who told you I’m here?"
Garrett put down his chopsticks and frowned at her.
Noticing that something was wrong, Janet quickly swallowed the food and tugged at Ethan’s shirt.
"I think we’d better leave.It’s most likely that Mr.Harding had a fling with this woman.It looks like he is in trouble."

Garrett was her boss after all.
It didn’t seem right for her to sit there and watch another woman embarrass him.
Ethan nodded and gave Garrett a quick glance before taking Janet to the bathroom.
Laney also wanted to follow them, but she was sitting next to Garrett.
The moment she stood up, Tracey pinned her back to her chair.
"Where do you want to go? You are not going anywhere, bitch! We need to talk this out today!
