There were two guards each behind Lucius, Russell, and Maddox as they made their way to the restaurant.

Freya accompanied Jamie to a corner of the restaurant where a variety of dishes were already laid out on the table. The dishes were all specialties from Floravalea.

A skilled chef was busy preparing the ingredients at a nearby table.

Lucius frowned as he watched the chef expertly dissect a fish and turn it into thinly sliced raw fish. He then threw the fish into a nearby water tank, leaving only the delicate fish bones, yet the fish was still swimming in the tank.

Jamie seemed unfazed by this and had already started enjoying the thinly sliced raw fish in front of him.

Lucius, however, felt a wave of nausea.

“This is a chef I specially invited from Floravalea. He’s a chef that won three Michelin stars.” Jamie chuckled. “I was worried that you wouldn’t be accustomed to our usual food, so I arranged this special meal for you. Why aren’t you eating?”

Lucius’ face turned pale, but he remained silent. On the other hand, Russell picked up a piece of thinly sliced raw fish and slowly savored it.

Freya had eaten thinly sliced raw fish before, but never this “fresh.”

She also picked up a piece while suppressing her disgust.

Lucius furrowed his brow and began to say, “Miss Kaufmann-”

Freya discreetly pinched his arm under the table.

At this moment, they needed to conserve their energy and eat enough to have a chance of survival.

Freya suspected that Jamie wanted to assert his dominance by making them eat in this manner. After finishing the meal, Jamie stood up and left.
