Hearing the commotion, Juniper and Shanley looked toward the source of the noise.
At the exact same time, the alluring woman turned her head, her profile slowly coming into view.
Just as their eyes were about to meet, a waiter carrying a tray of drinks suddenly stepped between them.
The angle perfectly blocked their line of sight.
Coralie had wanted to see who they were, but the waiter was in the way.
"I can't believe someone else likes that flavor."
She frowned slightly, her red lips parting. "And to eat so much of it all at once."
She had thought she was the only one with such bizarre tastes.
"Fine."
Coralie looked away and tossed her long hair, her delicate chin tilting upward. "Pack up some other food and send it to my private room. Oh, and no onions. He hates them."
"Right away."
The manager nodded frantically and immediately ordered his staff to get it done.
On the other side of the room.
Juniper and Shanley were also quite curious about who commanded such a grand entrance.
Unfortunately, the waiter had interrupted their view.
By the time he moved, the woman had already walked away, surrounded by a crowd.
"What are you looking at?"
Shanley asked, noticing her staring blankly into the distance.
"Her back looks nice," Juniper replied lazily. "She kind of looks like Celine."
"Really?"
Shanley ruffled the girl's hair, took her hand, and said softly, "I actually think she looks more like you."
"Oh, really?"
Hearing this, Juniper bristled like an angry kitten, glaring at him with a dark expression. "Mr. Schwartz sure looks closely at beautiful women."
Shanley's lips twitched helplessly. He hadn't been looking on purpose.
But upon reflection, he realized there was no good way to explain himself since he had looked.
He genuinely just felt she resembled his girl.
But it was only a fleeting impression—she definitely wasn't as pretty as his Juniper.
"I was wrong," Shanley sighed. "If I ever dare look around again, I'll blind myself. How about that?"
Knowing he was just running his mouth, Juniper couldn't be bothered to entertain him. She pushed his hand away and headed for the door.
"Heh."
Carrying her bag, Shanley took large strides to catch up with her.
