He gestured to those behind him and allowed a person I was particularly familiar with to enter.
The man was wearing a custom-made royal blue suit, his hair neat and clean. When he saw everyone, he was charming.
He said with a smile on his face, "Sorry to keep everyone waiting!"
Sebastian stood up to greet him with a huge smile on his face too. After shaking hands with him, he said, "Mr. Granger sure has to deal with a lot of affairs every day. We've ordered the dishes, and they'll be served soon!"
Then, he led Irvin to his seat.
I looked at Irvin, who was sitting opposite me. I frowned and thought, why did he appear here as the representative of the third party company?
I looked sideways at Hendrix and saw that he was just calmly removing a lobster's shell. When he saw me looking at him, he smiled and asked, "Hungry?"
I shook my head and opened my mouth to say something, "No..." and he took the opportunity to put a piece of lobster into my mouth.
I couldn't spit it out so I chewed. It was very sweet. Delighted with the flavor, I enthusiastically ate the rest.
He smiled. "How's the taste?"
I nodded and commented honestly, "Quite good."
He smiled faintly and continued to remove the shell. He said in a gentle voice, "Eat slowly. I'll remove the shells for you!"
It was as if there was no one else at the table with us.
However, judging from Hendrix's expression, it seems like he knew that the third party was Irvin, which would explain why he had followed me ton dinner.
