Janet finally snapped out of her astonishment when the owner of the restaurant left with his staff.She quietly stared at Ethan.

‘How could he be so calm?’ she wondered.

"Ethan, what just happened? Why was the owner of this restaurant nice to you? Besides, he didn’t probe the issue to find out what really happened.How was he so sure that the waitresses were rude to us?"

Janet fired one question after the other.

"He didn’t have to question them.High-end restaurants always handle problems like these with care because they can’t afford to lose their reputation.The manager and waitresses were thoughtless, but the owner knew what to do.After all, losing even one customer would impact their business because reputation is their biggest asset," Ethan explained.

Biting her lip, Janet nodded in understanding.

She grinned and playfully nudged his arm.

"You were domineering like you were his boss."

"Gangsters like us have to put on an act at all times.It’s a dangerous world.Otherwise, I’d be dead by now."

Ethan filled Janet’s bowl with soup and looked at her.

Janet felt he was right, so she didn’t probe further.
