“Ding—” At this moment, the elevator door opened.
Scott Harris led them through a beautiful corridor and into the beach.
A vast, seemingly endless stretch of beach was cordoned off, without a single person in sight. Only seagulls and the relentless crashing of waves against the shoreline created a breathtaking scene!
By the coastline, a group of waiters formed a line, placing a variety of seafood on a long table next to them.
“Today’s lunch features seafood prepared by the head chef of Pacifica Island’s
Michelin star restaurant. Young Master Lawrence, Ms. Clark, please enjoy.” Scott Harris gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Enna Clark and waited for her to sit down before pushing it in slightly. He then respectfully stood to the side, as quiet as if he had become invisible.
Enna stared at the Hairy Crab and crab utensils in front of her, dumbfounded.
What should she do if she didn’t know how to use these tools?
Several waiters stood by the dining table, pouring water for her and handing her hot towels. Enna glanced awkwardly at the man one meter away from her, unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.
With so many people watching her, would she embarrass him if she didn’t know how to use these utensils?
Men were all about saving face; if she lost face for Baron Lawrence here, would she be thrown out directly?.
She didn’t mind being thrown out, but this was Country W, and she didn’t even have the money for a plane ticket on her. How would she go back if she was thrown out?
In just a few minutes, countless thoughts raced through Enna’s mind.
At this moment, a beautiful female waiter suddenly carried a plate from Baron’s side and walked towards her.
“Miss Clark, Young Master Lawrence asked me to bring this to you.” She put down the plate, and Enna took a look, stunned.
In the silver plate, a neatly cut Hairy Crab was placed. The plate’s owner seemed to know that she didn’t know how to use crab utensils and had considerately cracked the hard shells on each crab leg, so she only needed to remove the shell slightly to eat.
Did Baron Lawrence do this for her?
Enna glanced over subconsciously, but the dining table was too long for her to see the man’s resolute features clearly.
“Miss Clark, do you want me to keep this Hairy Crab?” The waiter asked at this moment.
Enna snapped back to her senses, nodding her head, “Please take it away, thank you.”
“Alright, Miss Clark, please enjoy your meal.” The waiter took away the previous plate for her.
Enna retracted her gaze and picked up the knife and fork on the table to start her battle with the Hairy Crab on her plate.
The seafood by the sea tasted delicious and fresh, especially when cooked by a top chef. The original flavor of the Hairy Crab was fully preserved, with the addition of mint to remove any fishiness. The crab meat was rich, and the crab roe was thick and fragrant. Enna had never tasted such delicious crab before, and after finishing an entire piece, she still couldn’t get over the taste of the crab roe.
After finishing lunch.
Enna simply couldn’t eat anymore, so she took a few sips of orange juice and put down the glass.
Scott Harris approached her and asked respectfully, “Miss Clark, are you finished eating?” Enna, feeling full and round, nodded, “Yes.”
“Where to?” Enna hesitated for a moment, glancing at the man not far away.
Wasn’t Baron Lawrence coming along?
Scott Harris seemed to know what she was thinking and kindly explained, “Lord Lawrence has an important meeting this afternoon. I’ll take Miss Clark back to her room to rest first. Once Lord Lawrence’s meeting is over, I’ll call for
Miss Clark to get up.”
So he still had a meeting…
Enna hadn’t intended to stick with Baron Lawrence every minute of the day, and she couldn’t wait to have some time alone.. She immediately stood up with enthusiasm and walked away with Scott Harris…
