"Now? That won't do." Kingsley pointed to the tempting Spaghetti Bolognese on the table. "We haven't finished our meal yet. Leaving at this point would be such a waste, don't you think?"
Yulia expressed her concern. "But... I'm worried that things might get even more complicated if they show up later."
Kingsley smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry. It's a simple matter. You don't need to worry about anything. Come on, let's enjoy the spaghetti."
Looking at Kingsley's calm demeanor, Yulia inexplicably felt a sense of security. She glanced at the steaming plate of pasta and swallowed hard. "You're right. Let's finish our meal before we go."
He chuckled, finding Yulia's unwavering love for food quite endearing.
At that moment, Luke Mccarty approached with some side dishes and drinks. He asked, "How is it? Does it taste as good as you remember?"
Yulia nodded and gave him a thumbs-up. "The taste is just like what Mr. Mccarty used to prepare! It's incredibly delicious!"
Luke immediately smiled. "Haha, my dad always tells me not to tarnish his reputation. He should hear your praise."
Kingsley also smiled warmly and added, "This place holds so many childhood memories for me. I'd love the chance to thank Mr. Mccarty in person."
"My dad might drop by in a while, but speaking of gratitude, it's us who should be thanking you," Luke replied.
He wished to chat more with Kingsley, but a nearby patron loudly called out for more side dishes.
"Alright, coming!" Luke responded, turning to attend to the customer's request.
As Yulia enjoyed her spaghetti, she tried to recollect their previous conversation. "Where were we just now before Hillary's call interrupted us? I totally forgot."
Kingsley pondered for a moment and replied, "I think... we were discussing complimentary drinks, right? You mentioned that when you used to frequent this place, Mr. Mccarty would often offer you free drinks."
Her eyes lit up with excitement. "Exactly! I didn't expect us to share so many common experiences. It's truly amazing!"
