Their appetites were clearly affected by the incident as they barely took a few bites before declaring they were done with dinner.

He silently sat there for a few minutes before getting to his feet. "Rest early."

She watched him walk away with narrowed eyes.

Something about him felt off.

Still, she could not say exactly what was off.

After dinner, she spent a few minutes chatting with Bria and Steven over a video call.
