When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 799 I Will Go With You

“Hey, why did you call me?” Lucille asked, holding back the anger welling up inside her.

On the other end, Mason spoke gently, “Lucy, I have to work overtime today. I won’t be able to get home until eleven at the latest.”

“Oh, didn’t you already tell me this? Why are you telling me again?”

“I was worried you might forget.”

When it came to Lucille, Mason was especially gentle, unlike his usual rigid demeanor toward others.

“I got it. Take care of yourself and don’t let any vixens sweep you off your fect.”

“Hahaha, okay. Love you, kiss.”

Lucille ended the call.

It was the first time Cecilia had heard Mason speak like this and even giving kisses.

It seems like Mason really has feelings for Lucille. Hopefully, he’s not a sc*mbag or a playboy.

“Look, this guy is still lying to me. I’ll go to Moonlit Restaurant right now to keep an eye on things.”

“I’ll go with you,” said Cecilia.

“All right.”

With a shared goal in mind, the two of them got into the car and headed toward Moonlit Restaurant.

Since the restaurant required reservations to be made in advance and was specifically for couples, the waiter stopped Cecilia and Lucille when they arrived.

“Excuse me, do you two have a reservation? Where are the gentlemen accompanying you ladies?”

Cecilia had forgotten about this regulation.

The services offered here were upscale, not something the average person could afford.

She was about to say something when Lucille grabbed her arm. “Can’t we be a couple? Are you perhaps discriminating against us?”

Cecilia choked up.

The waiter was stunned, clearly finding it hard to believe.

“Of course not. Do you have a reservation then?”

“Can’t we go in without a reservation?” asked Lucille.

“I’m sorry, you can’t go in without a reservation…”

Before the waiter could finish speaking, Cecilia pulled out a card and placed it before him. “Are you sure we can’t go in? Maybe you’d like to check with your manager?”

With just one glance, the waiter immediately recognized that what Cecilia had in her hand was an unlimited black card.

At once, he became even more polite, saying, “Please come in. I’ll arrange the finest private room for you.”

Indeed, money talks.

“Hold on, we don’t need the finest private room. Can you check for me if there’s a reservation under the names Mason Sanders or Jessica Quill? We’d like to be seated near their room.”

Although the waiter didn’t understand why Cecilia made that request, he still agreed to it.

After all, customers who held black cards weren’t people the establishment could afford to offend..Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Before long, the information was found; the private room had been reserved under Jessica’s name.

Cecilia suddenly found herself feeling somewhat grateful toward Nathaniel. His black card had come in handy this time, otherwise, things wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.

After the two settled down, the manager personally came over to take their orders.

“Since we have to wait anyway, we might as well eat while we wait,” suggested Cecilia..

Lucille looked at her with admiration. “All right.”

The two ordered quite a bit of food, informing the manager to have their orders being served in batches as they intended to stay until after ten in the evening-

At half past nine, Mason and Jessica walked into the restaurant together. As soon as he entered, het felt that something was off.

“Ms. Quill, what kind of restaurant is this?”

At a glance, he noticed that the restaurant was filled with couples.

The decor within was also filled with elements of romance.

“Mason, I’ve searched for numerous restaurants, and the dishes at this one are particularly delicious. They mainly specialize in couple set meals, though. I hope you don’t mind. Anyway, we’re just having a simple meal together, nothing more,” explained Jessica.

Hearing her say that, Mason also felt that it wouldn’t be a problem. We’re just having a meal and doing nothing else, after all.
