A little later, Lynch and the mayor had dinner together.
It's an interesting phenomenon to mention: two months ago, if Lynch wanted to have dinner with the mayor, he had to wait a long time for his turn.
But now, he can easily meet the mayor anytime and anywhere, and can jump the queue to sit down and chat or have a meal with the mayor at any moment.
Is this due to Lynch's personal charm, his knowledge, his character, and all his outstanding qualities?
No, it has nothing to do with those excellent qualities. It's simply because he has money, and because his development is now tied to the mayor's political agenda. They are in a community of interest, and it is the interests that are the key to achieving these miracles.
This was a very ordinary dinner. They didn't dine outside but chose to eat at the mayor's house.
Dining and drinking outside at this time is not a smart thing to do. Who knows where a hidden reporter might stir up big news.
