Felix stood at the entrance of an alley at around 7:00 pm with a confused look.

He stood at the location Sasha had given him, but no matter how much he looked around, the place didn't seem like there would be a restaurant there. "Felix."

In less than a minute, Sasha appeared.

"Is the restaurant here?" Felix asked.

Sasha answered with a smile, "Yes, there's a fondue restaurant here that's been around for years. The food is really good."

Fondue? Felix wasn't going to question it. It didn't matter what they ate. He'd be gratef as long as Sasha would stop bothering him.

As they turned the corner into the alley, the fragrant aroma of food hit them, instantly increasing his appetite.

There was indeed a fondue restaurant nestled in the alley. There was even a line of people waiting to be seated at the entrance.

"Don't we need to line up?" Felix was puzzled when he saw Sasha walk right in.

"No need. I've known the owner for a long time and reserved a table ahead of time."

The restaurant was small and was run by a couple in their 40s. The husband worked in the kitchen, and the wife handled the front. Their roles were well-defined. After sitting down, Sasha smiled sweetly.

"I couldn't decide where to go for our last meal together, so I thought of sharing this place with you, Felix."

"Thanks."

If it were anyone else who didn't know of her past, they might genuinely fall for her act.

When the food was served, the rich aroma filled the air. Even Felix couldn't resist taking a

bite.

""What do

you

think?"

"It's pretty good."

Just as he was about to take another bite, a group of about a dozen men dressed in black stormed into the small restaurant, making the already cramped space even more crowded. +25 BONUS

"Everyone out. This place is now fully booked. We'll cover your meal costs, and you'll each get 500 dollars as compensation."

A situation like this clearly wasn't something ordinary people would want to challenge. Moreover, getting 500 dollars in compensation was a win-win for most.

Within moments, the restaurant was emptied, leaving only Sasha and Felix. The rest of the patrons walked out happily with their money.

The expressions of the couple running the restaurant suggested that this wasn't the first time such a situation had occurred, as they seemed completely unbothered.

"This is ridiculous!" Sasha's expression darkened. She looked at Felix, silently hoping he would get mad and do something about it.

According to Ted's reasoning, there was no chance Felix would just leave quietly, given.s knack for stirring up trouble and his backing from Kane. Sasha believed that as well. However, what Felix did next left Sasha utterly stunned.

"Let's not. They are already being quite polite about booking the whole place. We can come by later."

With that, Felix stood up, walked over to the men in black, took his 500 dollars, and turned to leave.

After coming back to her senses, Sasha was utterly dumbfounded. But knowing that it would be nearly impossible to create such an opportunity again, she let her hatred consume her rationality. She abruptly slammed the table and stood up.

"What do you think you're doing? This is too much! We're all here to eat. What right do you have to kick us out?"

Felix, who was almost at the door, walked back to her front with a frown.

"Everyone, my sister here got a little worked up. Please forgive her. We're leaving now."

The moment he grasped her hand, Sasha shook him off.

"And you call yourself a man? They're blatantly pushing us around, and you're just going to back down with a smile? Well, I'm not leaving! Let's see what they can do to me!" 2/2
