“How about that Korean barbecue restaurant we went to last time? It’s an authentic restaurant run by a Korean family. It’s the best and most delicious place in the entire city,” Gerda suggested, clapping her hands excitedly.

“Well, the food in that restaurant is indeed delicious.But it’s also a little expensive. With so many of us going there, I’m afraid we will empty Quinn’s wallet.”

Now that Natalie didn’t have any financial pressure, she thought for a moment and readily agreed, “It’s okay.I don’t often invite you to dinner, after all:Gerda, give me the phone number of the restaurant.I’ll reserve a table.”

Natalie had not only received a promotion but a salary hike as well.She could occasionally squander without burning a hole in her pocket.

After making a reservation in the restaurant, Natalie sent a message to Sebastian, informing him about the dinner party.Not long after she sent the message, her phone rang.It was indeed a call from Sebastian.

“Who are you going with? A man or a woman?”

“Well, I’m going with my colleagues — mostly girls.One guy is joining us, but he already has a girlfriend,”Natalie explained in a low voice.

“Why are you whispering? Are you afraid others might hear us?” Sebastian complained.

“What’s wrong? Are you hiding me and our relationship from others? Are you ashamed of me?” Natalie frowned.

She couldn’t understand what he meant.

“I’m used to keeping my voice down when I’m in the office. It’s a little inconvenient to chat loudly with so many people around.” Natalie looked around.

She was in the company’s bathroom now.

After all, it was a common area where people enter and exit all the time.

Sebastian hummed but didn’t say anything more.He was idly knocking on the table with a pen, having no intention of hanging up.

“All right.I”ll hang up then.”

Natalie was anxious to return to work.
