When the situation was irreparable, you have to stop.

They were all adults now, and they understood the principle of not going too far.

"That's good.After we have a meal together, we shall separate and move on."

Patrick agreed, but he did not relax.

Regret? No, she had never been able to control a man like Patrick.

Besides, many things had happened, and there were so many people and things between them now.

Patrick parked the car outside the restaurant and threw the keys to the waiting valet.

Then, he led Sophia in.

He brought her to the tallest revolving restaurant in the city, with a height of 380 meters.

Sitting here, she could look around and see the enchanting night view of the entire Frostford City without moving.

"This place is lovely" Sophia sighed with emotion.

But she also realized that this was not her life, and she always felt that it was too unreal.

"Can you check first what you want to eat?"

Patrick called the waiter over and pushed the menu to Sophia.

"Can you order for me, please? I am not a picky eater"

Sophia looked at the shockingly expensive dishes on the menu, and her head began to hurt a little.The people who were born with a silver spoon did not understand the hard work of the working people.This meal was probably worth half a year's salary for Sophia.

"Please bring us two of your signature dishes and a bottle of 1992 Lafite Rothschild" Patrick ordered through the waiter.

"I don't drink" Sophia reminded.

Patrick raised his eyebrows, "I will drink it myself.I won't force you."

Sophia was slightly relieved, but when she thought of the year and brand of the wine, she thought, ‘It should be costly, right?’ She smiled bitterly.

She felt like Cinderella, wearing glass shoes who would eventually return to her original form at midnight.She knew that the social status gap between her and Patrick was huge, and she felt pressured.She was young and naive enough to think that love conquered all in the past.

Now that she was old enough to think rationally, she felt that her status in life was truly holding her back.

She felt that she had learned her lesson from the past years.
