“Natalie, over here!”

Natalie nodded in greeting. They hadn‘t seen each other for over a month. Lila had lost a lot of weight. Her makeup was not as pristine as before, and her eyes were full of undisguised fatigue.

“I know several good cafes in the area. How about we talk there?” Natalie suggested, glancing at the men from the corner of her eye.

“This place is owned by a friend of Jeff‘s. I don‘t have that much money now, so I could only afford the food here,” Lila explained with a smile.

“Oh, Jeff‘s my brother.” Left with no choice, Natalie sat down at the table. The restaurant was empty other than the group of men.

There were barely any people outside, too. This was clearly a place for doing illegal stuff. The staff soon brought them two plates of steak.

Lila pushed one of them in front of Natalie and said, “Try it. I like their food.”

As she spoke, she glanced meaningfully at the man who had served the steak just now. She knew that Jeff and his friends were hiding in the kitchen. With Sebastian guarding outside, Natalie wasn‘t afraid at all. She sliced a piece of her steak and put it in her mouth.

Suddenly, Jeff burst out of the kitchen, holding a stick and some ropes, followed by a group of thugs. However, before they could even get close to Natalie, a group of men in black swarmed inside the restaurant. In a matter of seconds, the men in black quickly subdued Jeff and his friends. Lila was shocked. She stood up from the table and shouted, “Who the hell are you? I‘m calling 911!”

Natalie continued to eat her steak calmly. The steak here was pretty good; she had to give Lila that.

Sebastian, who was wearing a dark brown windbreaker today, strode in. He sat next to Natalie, took out a handkerchief, and handed it to her.

“Honey, it’s time to go.”

Taking the handkerchief, Natalie folded it neatly and wiped her lips. She glanced indifferently at the panic–stricken Lila and said,

“Okay. Let‘s go, honey.”
