Kane Townsend was just threatened, and now she is not in a good mood. She slides the menu back, "I'm not hungry."
Jace Pierce fumbles for a lighter in his pocket, lights a cigarette, takes a puff, and exhales rings of smoke. Then, he instructs the waiter, "The usual."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
After that, the waiter leaves the room, leaving only the two of them.
Kane Townsend bows her head and plays with her phone.
There's no topic of conversation between the two.
After a while, the waiter starts serving the dishes.
Jace Pierce often comes here with Maverick Knight and is a regular customer; the chef remembers his taste.
After the dishes are served, Jace Pierce picks up his chopsticks and starts eating.
Kane Townsend sits across from him, still playing with her phone, not even glancing at the dishes.
Having skipped lunch and only had a couple of bites of noodles earlier, her stomach is completely empty. Now, as the aromas waft over, she can't help but swallow.
