Sophie glanced at it casually. "Let's get everything Adler mentioned just now Colby heard this and gave a slight smile Adler sitting next to them, blurted out. I told you, Colby's choices are always spot-on. All those are your favorites, Ms. Sophie" Sophie looked at Colby, puzzled, but he seemed to have no intention of explaining "I'm sorry, sir, the kitchen just informed us that the crab is out. We can replace it with another dish of the sprice for you." the waiter said cautiously, careful not to upset Colby Adler frowned. "What's going on? I had reserved in advance, how can that dish be sold out?" He was adept at managing such gatherings and had never encountered any mishaps under his watch I'm really sorry, but another table had reserved the crab first due to a mistake in our kitchen's tally. We can offer you two complimentary dishes instead. Please accept our apologies, sir" "Is this about compensation? Which table reserved it? III go talk to them." Adler was about to stand up, so Sophie said, "Let it go. I don't necessarily have to have that crab, and I don't even like seafood." Originally, she had only liked the crab because James was fond of it. In fact, she really disliked the taste of seafood.

Sophie rested her chin on her hand and looked at Adler, saying, "Lobster's more reliable than ordinary crab, right?" Hearing this, Adler finally calmed down a bit. "I'll head to the restroom.

"Miss, the restroom is this way," the waiter reminded her again from behind.
Sophie turned around and saw the restroom around the corner.
Inside the private room, James heard the noise outside and instinctively looked towards the door, only catching a glimpse of a wine-red silhouette.

Vincent, with a knowing look, said, "The plot Mrs. Burke won at the m auction recently has been designated as a green space. It's set to receive several billion in subsidies, making its future value immeasurable." James frowned. He hadn't heard anything about this.
