Turning Of The Tide

An hour later, Ava led Frank to Sapphire City’s liveliest late-night food gathering spot, a restaurant located on the beach.

The restaurant wasn’t large, but there were many cars parked outside, representing various brands, which was enough to show the popularity of this place.

Frank glanced into the distance, found a parking spot, pulled in, and turned off the engine. He looked at the restaurant in front of them and asked, “Here?”

“Yeah, exactly. The food here is delicious. They’re all seafood and very fresh,” Ava replied.

As Ava spoke, she remembered the late-night snacks Alex had brought her last time. She had been well protected and rarely went to places like this at night. Her brother was too busy, and she was obedient enough not to ask him to bring her here.

Frank had keen observation skills. He could tell Ava hadn’t been to such a place alone. He got out of the car, walked around to the passenger side, opened the door, and held her hand as they walked inside.

Entering the restaurant, they saw many men and women of different ages already seated inside. It didn’t bother Frank, as he had frequented such places for late-night snacks before. However, it seemed a bit overwhelming for Ava.

Frank asked, “Do you want it to go?”

“Is it not safe here?” Ava seemed to understand Frank’s concerns.

Frank’s gaze met Ava’s clear eyes, and it was hard for him to refuse her. Frank changed from holding her hand to putting his arm around her waist. She leaned against his chest, and he said, “It’s up to you.”

“Then let me check if there’s a private room available. If there is, we can eat here. If not, we’ll take it to a quiet place to eat, alright?”

Ava came up with a compromise. She understood his worry.

Fortunately, luck was on their side. When they inquired at the front desk, there was indeed a private room available. Frank was concerned about Ava getting bumped into by people around them. Hence, he held her tightly as they walked to the private room and only released her once they were inside.

He closed the door, pulled out a chair for her, and let her sit down.

A minute later, a waitress came in and couldn’t help but say, “You two are the best-looking customers I’ve ever served here.”

The waitress was a young girl too. Her words praised them, and her eyes were honest. Her eyes had no hint of flirtation. and she did not glance at Frank. Instead, her gaze remained on Ava during the compliment.

Ava quite liked this and politely thanked her. “Thank you. It’s my first time here. Could you recommend the best seafood

dishes?”

Her voice was gentle, soft, and sweet.

The waitress recommended several delicious seafood platters to Ava, explaining that they were all freshly caught today. After making the suggestions, she left the room discreetly.

Frank was somewhat impressed. If this situation happened in Athana, many women would approach him and strike up a conversation, whether he was alone or with a companion. Given the chance, many women were afraid of missing out and would try to seize the opportunity to talk to him. The waitress’s reaction just now was rather refreshing to him.
