Russell looked at Aveline. "What do you feel like eating?"

Selena chimed in, "We already asked her. She said she was fine with anything. When we asked for specific dishes, she just said she was not picky. Isn't that frustrating?" Russell nodded. "It is quite frustrating."

Aveline blinked innocently. "But I really am okay with anything, and I'm not picky at all."

Selena gave her a mock glare. "Should I be praising you for that?"

Aveline grinned. "You could, yes."

Selena rolled her eyes at her without hesitation.

After a moment of contemplation, Russell said, "I'll have something delivered then."

Aveline hesitated. "Wouldn't that be too much trouble?"

Russell shook his head, "Not at all. The hotel will prepare everything and deliver it. Plus, there won't be any cleanup afterward."

"Oh, okay." Aveline nodded in agreement.

At this point, Gernard spoke up, taking the initiative to greet Russell. "Mr. Skyler, I've heard a lot about you."

Russell turned to him with a slight smile, "Mr. Cooper, the legendary figure of the Cooper family. I've always wanted to meet you, but the opportunity never arose. Now that I finally do, I must say, the reality surpasses the rumors."

Gernard smiled modestly. "You're too kind, Mr. Skyler. I've heard you're recently involved in overseas ventures? I happen to have some experience in that area. How about we discuss it further?" "Sure," Russell agreed.
