All Her Secrets

As everyone’s eyes were fixed on Catherine, she walked alongside Branden and entered the restaurant.

The interior design of the restaurant matched the style of the building, exuding an elegant and unique ambiance that transported people to a foreign country.

They were given the largest private room, not in terms of table size, but in its expansive area, resembling a spacious, one-level restaurant.

Branden handed the menu to Catherine and asked, “What would you like to eat?”

Catherine didn’t respond, her delicate face resting on her hand, indicating her fatigue and weariness.

Branden noticed her exhaustion and sighed as he gazed at her. “Then I’ll order. After we finish eating, I’ll take you to rest,” he said in a deep tone.

Catherine had no objections. She didn’t enjoy selecting dishes, so she didn’t mind letting Branden decide on the meal.

If there was anything she didn’t like, she could choose not to eat it.

Since there were only the two of them, Branden thought a simple lunch would be more suitable. He ordered two sets with an appetizer, a main dish, and a dessert, and specifically asked the chef to prepare something spicy for Catherine.

Catherine glanced at the dishes containing mussels and fish, which appeared appetizing and pleasing to her.

Taking the initiative, she picked up the utensils and began eating silently.

Catherine remained quiet throughout the meal, and Branden was not particularly talkative either. Neither of them said a word during the lunch.

Occasionally, Branden made a slight sound as he deboned the fish and placed it on Catherine’s plate.

“Enjoy!” he said.

Catherine glanced at him, her lips curling into a faint smile, radiating a wild and carefree air.

The fish dish was delicious but filled with small bones.
