My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)
Chapter 1838

"It's just us two eating. There's no need to be so extravagant. An ordinary private room will do."

Freya thought for a while and agreed, "Fine, but I still want to order the best wine. Since we are entering a new industry, we have to celebrate. Lead the way, our good sir."

"This way, please." The manager raised his hand covered in a white glove and gave way to the other side before slowly leading us into a corridor.

This was not our first time at the Golden Roof Restaurant. They had only the most luxurious suites. Occasionally, a waiter could be seen entering and exiting the private rooms. We saw some familiar faces - all were the rich and famous of Jarold City.

The VVIP private room was in the deepest part of the corridor. The manager stopped at a room opposite the presidential suite.

"Here we are. Please wait a moment. I'll get you today's menu and the wine Miss Moore ordered."

"There's no need for that. Get someone to bring the wine and give us the seafood special of the day. You don't have to take care of them yourself. Go to the next room and ask someone else to serve us." Freya waved her hand and led me in.

A businessman's magnanimity was engraved in her bones. Freya was not so demanding as to be needing the manager to personally serve us. Compared to serving us, he was better off serving the guests of the presidential suite. They had to serve the VVIP guests well to show Golden Roof Restaurant's hospitality.

The manager smiled politely at Freya and I, gave us a small bow then went out.

Soon, a young waiter came in with a dining cart. On it was a serving of salmon fish from Icekaido and roasted Silver Trout. The manager had also personally added in goose liver and high marble quality steak.

Since there was a fixed amount of

nutritious meals one had to consume within the Reid family, I was dying to dig in after having my diet restricted for some time. I cut a small piece of the goose liver and put it in my mouth, feeling the warmth coating my tongue as it melted in my mouth. Happiness swelled within me.

As Freya tasted the high-class wine in her hand, she raised her eyebrows in suspicion. How long have your been deprived of meat?" "I can't remember." I picked up the glass next tome. I lifted it towards my nose and took in the aroma of

I

alcohol fermentation. Then put it down with satisfaction. "haven't

eaten much since coming back from Mesville."

"You must have had it hard." Suddenly, Freya sighed. "Life is too short; to not enjoy every bit of it is a sin. I only understood this when I had my surgery in Mesville. After being abroad for a while, it suddenly occurred to me that being single would not harm me, and I wouldn't be sentenced for not getting married either. Thus, I won't touch a man again. Who knows what kind of fatal. disaster he would cause? And most importantly, they're too troublesome to get rid of."

I did not hold back my laughter. "You're basically just afraid of how troublesome it would be."

Life was complicated and filled with such diverse experiences. Nothing was perfect in life. One could only gradually accept it with learned indifference.

"I was trying to be sentimental. Why did you have to call me out like that? Are you even my friend..." Freya rolled her eyes and winked at the waiter beside her to fill her glass with wine. She then shook it over and over again, as if she was afraid that I would not see it.

Tempted, I had to admit my mistake. "Okay, Miss Moore, I admit that I was wrong. You know I can't drink, so please stop tempting me." "That's more like it," Freya said as she put the glass down with satisfaction.

As soon as her voice fell, a voice came from the door.

"Miss Reid? What a coincidence."
