Lola got the glass of juice and took a sip. It was fresh and sweet. This place was wonderful.

But his words almost made her choke on the drink. She curtly replied, "Mr. Lewis, I have a home. I have a place to stay. We don't need your help."

Harry did not accept her decline. He wiped away the juice stain on Nicole's mouth and said, "Fine, I will go to your place then."

She was utterly speechless. How could anyone be so determined like him! He almost gets anything that he wants. "I don't think so. Mr. Lewis, you are a VIP and our humble home is way too small for you."

Harry stroked Nicole's chubby little cheek and scornfully cast a glance at her. He needed to teach her a lesson for talking to him like that! He really did not want people treating him differently just because he was a highly-deemed person in the society.

"That's true. I may have a lot of assets and fame is on my side. However, I am also able to adapt myself to any situation. So your humble home suits me just fine." His voice was quite calm and indifferent. But the message he conveyed was strong and clear: he was not going anywhere tonight! He wanted to be with her.

"I was with you during the day, wasn't that enough?" Lola slightly curled up her lips. In the first place, she should be the one annoyed and hurt. She had every right to get mad at him.

Nicole looked at her parents as they argued. Her big eyes blinked as if she could understand what was going on.

"No, not enough! We are talking about the evening now!" The day they both had earlier should be forgotten. They should no longer talk anything in their past.

Lola put down her glass and gazed at the man who was attending to her daughter. She could never predict what he wants and thinks.

One minute later.

"Hot enough?" Harry's eyes were still on Nicole but his question was addressed to Lola.

Lola firmly nodded her head and said, "So shameless! Your shamelessness is quite outrageous! Be careful with your words next time!" She blurted out with a serious expression on her face.

Harry cast a cold glance at her direction and Lola almost bit her tongue. She firmly believed that she had the right to tell him off!

"Nicole, are you hungry already?" He asked the cute girl with a soft voice. He really loved his beautiful little girl. The bond between them was so deep that he loved her from the bottom of his heart. Everything that he did for her was sincere and was out of pure love.

Nicole raised her little cup and took a sip. She replied with a sweet voice and said, "Uncle, I think I will just drink this juice." Nicole knew that the dinner was not yet ready. She was patient enough to wait for the meal.

Harry broke into a smile as he pressed the button and called for service. Someone knocked on the door politely and the manager came in. "Boss Lewis, what can I do for you?"

"Please serve our dishes as soon as possible. Thank you." He calmly requested.

The general manager replied with full respect, "Of course, Boss Lewis. We shall serve them right away!" He already told the kitchen to speed up cooking these dishes as he knew that Boss Lewis was coming to dine tonight.

After saying that the food is almost ready, he briskly went out to attend to the kitchen.

Within five minutes, several waiters walked in one by one with trays in their hands. They looked very professional with their white gloves on.

The general manager laid the dishes onto the table and personally explained every meal to them. "This one is the oyster with mustard sauce. That one is a fresh flouder cooked with ginger and spice. That one over there is a scallop with garlic flavored vermicelli..."

Harry scooped some seafood sauce for Nicole and mixed it with the rice on her plate. He gently put the bowl in front of her.

Lola looked at him as he attended to their daughter. She said nothing but carried on eating the scallop on her plate.

It would be nice for Nicole to call him daddy as he was indeed a very good father. But right now, she was so sure that it was not a good thing to do. The timing is very wrong.

She was concerned that he would still marry Yolanda even if she told him the truth. Then she would lose Nicole as well. Harry would eventually take her with him. Therefore, she chose to remain silent.

She looked at a peeled shrimp on her plate. Harry had put it in her plate for her to eat. Lola was pulled back from her deep thoughts.

Harry noticed the perplexed look on her face and asked, "What are you thinking?" He put down the chopsticks and looked directly into her eyes.

Confused, Lola looked at him. "Huh? Nothing."

Harry leaned over and sealed her mouth with a kiss. "Eat your food." He commanded in a cool voice.

She couldn't be absent-minded while dining with him. It was something that he really did not like.

Nicole saw this and giggled: "Boy kisses a girl, shameful, shameful! My teacher said that boys shouldn't kiss girls. It is something that is not good!"

Lola looked at her daughter as she waved the spoon in the air with her chubby little hands and was amused by her innocence. "Nicole, be a good girl and eat your food. You should not laugh at your mommy!"

Harry was very pleased as he observed both of them, very happy together. He looked at the beautiful woman and the adorable girl sitting next to him. He put on the gloves and cracked open a crab. He skillfully took out the crab meat and served them on their plates.

Just then, someone knocked on the lounge door. Harry said, "Come on in."

The general manager walked in with a big smile, followed by several waiters.

"Boss Lewis, the lobster dish and the rest are all cooked."

He lifted up the lid of the first waiter's tray.

On the tray, there was a huge lobster that weighed over five kilos.

The lobster was beautifully presented on the plate. The head was intact and was delicately laid in the middle of the plate while the body was cut in halves and dressed with a rich creamy sauce. The plate was decorated with green broccoli and other leafy garnish. It looked very tasty and delicious!

"All your dishes are now served. Enjoy your meal!" With these words, the manager left the lounge along with the waiters.

"Wow, such a big lobster!" Nicole was amazed at the size of the lobster. Her little mouth was wide open as she stared at it.

Harry winked and smiled kindly at her. He picked up a piece of the meat and put it into Nicole's spoon. "Try it, Nicole."

He also put some meat onto Lola's plate before digging in himself.
