Connor gazed at Camila with adoration and tenderness in his eyes. “Alright, where would you like to eat?”
“Anything’s fine. Let's see what everyone wants.” Camila replied with a gentle smile.
She turned to Erica and asked, “What would you like to eat?”
After thinking for a moment, Erica said, “How about we try that new seafood restaurant that just opened? I heard it has a great atmosphere and the
dishes are excellent.
Logan, holding her hand, agreed, “Then let's head to the seafood restaurant.”
“Great, I'll book a private room,” Camila said with a smile.
The four of them drove in two cars to the newly opened seafood restaurant. Upon entering their reserved private room, they were greeted by a large
round table that seemed to set a boundary like the Rubicon
The food was served quickly, and Connor occasionally helped Camila with her servings.
Logan and Erica sat on one side, and their interaction was especially sweet.
Erica took a bite of a meatball and slightly frowned. “Not my taste. Here, you have it,” she said, playfully tossing the meatball into Logan's bowl with a
mischievous grin.
Logan stared at the meatball in his bowl and smiled indulgently. He picked up the bitten meatball without hesitation and popped it into his mouth.
Connor, sitting across from them, caught this moment.

Erica watched all this with a sly and playful look. She turned to Logan and cooed, “You should take a lesson from Mr. Connor. Cami doesn’t even

Camila, suddenly the center of attention, blushed and looked down, smiling shyly but feeling a bit of sweetness inside.
Logan felt a surge of competitiveness. He provocatively stared at Connor and smiled confidently. “Let's see who can peel shrimp better and faster!
“Sure, loser pays the bill,” Connor replied casually, as if he was sure of winning
