Chapter 426: Love matters or not

Grey sat nervously at the dinner table, trying his best to maintain a sense of composure despite the fact that he was sharing a meal with the goddess of love herself.

Aphrodite sat across from him, her radiant beauty and overwhelming presence filling the room.

Grey had always known that she had a fondness for him, but he wasn't quite sure how to handle her affections.

In fact, he had always feared Aphrodite talking about it and when she did, he didn't quite know where to turn to.

"Hello, here's the menu," the waiter extended one menu each to them.

Aphrodite perused the menu quickly but she knew what she wanted already.She has always frequented the La Porchetta and there was a particular meal that she had always enjoyed.

The waiter soon walked back to them.

"Sir, ma'am, are you ready to make your order?" They nodded at the same time.

"I want pasta," Aphrodite started.

"And Aperitivo.And the desert should be_," she thought about it for a moment.

"Chocolate and pistachio Biscotti."

"Alright, ma'am, and you?" The waiter looked over at Grey.

"I would like lasagna and yes, Aperitivo sounds enticing.Make the dessert chocolate and pistachio Biscotti."

"VA bene, sto arrivando," the waiter said in Italian and hurried away.

"What did he say?"

Aphrodite was confused.

Grey laughed.

"He probably said, 'on the way or I'm coming."

Aphrodite laughed.
