Stella had no choice but to take it and thanked Darcie politely. Edith stared at Darcie for a while before turning to her son and said, “Daryl, have the waiter prepare another set of utensils.”

Darcie quickly waved her hand. “It’s okay, Mrs. Hall Sr., I’m going to leave now.

Wenham looked a little moved as he gently patted Darcie’s arm and softly said, “Thank you so much.”

Darice smiled and replied, “It’s my duty.”
