Lorenzo drove Mia to Emperor cuisine, one of the best restaurants in M city. Emperor Cuisine is known for their delicious food, top-notch service, and a stunning city view from the restaurant.
Mia saw that they had arrived the restaurant, are we eating here? She asked.
Uhmm, Lorenzo nodded.
Mia knew Emperor cuisine, she knew that the food at Emperor cuisine were very expensive as she had eaten there before with her best friend and it took them months to get a reservation.
Did you make a reservation earlier? She asked Mia.
Lorenzo knew what she might be thinking so he accepted making a reservation earlier, I made a reservation to come with a friend but he had an emergency and left town.
Ohh, is that so? Then let's go eat.
They both walked into the restaurant drawing attention from all angles, one was a rare beauty and the other was a handsome man, what an eye catching couple, people around exclaimed looking at them.
The manager of Emperor cuisine was notified of the arrival of Lorenzo,the young master of De Santos family, he came out personally to welcome them and led them to the best table in the restaurant.
The manager was surprised that Lorenzo came with a young beautiful lady,he had only brought his business partners or male friends before, he has never brought a lady to the restaurant. The manager thought that the two were a couple and ordered the waitress to give them a couple treat.
Mia and Lorenzo took their seat near the floor to ceiling glass window, their table was in one of the best position with the best view in the restaurant. Mia and Lorenzo sat by the window, enjoying the stunning city view. The sky was painted with hues of orange and pink, and the city lights twinkled like diamonds.
You really reserved the best table, it's your friend's loss that he went out of town, Mia said while they were waiting for their order.
Uhmm, Lorenzo agreed.
This man, he doesn't even talk, would it hurt him to say a few words? He's always nodding or he would just say one sentence, what a strange man, Mia thought to herself.
The waiter came over and offered Mia flowers which she accepted, they also served them red wine and the food they had ordered.
Mia was surprised by the special treatment, they hadn't served her and Isabella like that the last time they were here.
The manager came over with the last order, I hope you enjoy your date, he said bowing slightly to them.
What? What date, we aren't on a date, we are just eating, Mia explained frantically.
What? You aren't on a date, I thought.... The manager said surprised at Mia's explanation, he had thought that the young master was on a date that's why he did all this, would young master take offense with his actions? He thought looking at Lorenzo fearfully and apologitically.
Lorenzo just sat there silently not saying a word.
Hey! Why are you silent? Explain to them, Mia said.
It's ok, you may go, Lorenzo finally said.
The manager breathed a sigh of relief, bowing slightly again before leaving.
Why didn't you clear the misunderstanding, they clearly thought we were on a date, no wonder the gave me a bonquet of flowers, Mia said.
It doesn't matter, let's eat, Lorenzo said.
Mia looked at him for a while before picking her cutlery to eat, they both of them ate in silence.
Mia wanted to eat shrimp but was finding it difficult to peel it, she dropped it and gave up in frustration.
Lorenzo saw her efforts, he picked the shrimp and peeled it for her dropping the peeled shrimp into her plate.
Mia was surprised when she saw the peeled shrimp in her plate, she thanked him and went on eating the shrimp as she really wanted to eat it.
Lorenzo smiled as she ate the shrimp with her full attention, he continued peeling and dropping on her plate.
They really looked like a couple on a date with the man taking care of his girlfriend. The scene was captured by Asher who just finished a meeting with his client at the restaurant.
Jezz, isn't that my second brother and Miss Mia, second brother sure is fast, he managed to get the feisty Miss Mia to have a date with him. He's so gentle peeling the shrimp for her, when did second brother turn into such a gentle caring man, Asher thought to himself laughing before leaving the restaurant deciding not to interrupt them.
It's ok, you should eat too, Mia said to Lorenzo who has been peeling shrimp for her for a while now, I don't want the shrimp anymore.
Ok, Lorenzo said picking his cutlery to eat, they both ate for a while till they were done, Lorenzo settled the bill with his card and they left the restaurant.
Getting into the car, I will send you the money for the dinner, Mia said, we ate together so it's only fair we split the bill, how much did you pay?
It's ok , you don't have to pay me back, it's my treat, Lorenzo replied.
No, we aren't that familiar for you to treat me, I insist on paying you back , give me your account details , I will send it to you now,Mia insisted. Lorenzo gave her his details,here you can send it there it's Four thousand dollars, Lorenzo said.
What! Four thousand dollars for the food, it's sure is an expensive restaurant, here I sent you three thousand dollars, Mia said. Take me home now, am so tired.
Lorenzo used his car GPS to locate the Anderson house as he didn't know the area.
On getting home, Mia paid for her fare, thanked the strange taxi man and went inside.
Lorenzo watched as her figure disappeared into the house, looking at the money she handed him, he tossed it aside and drove off.
