Since they had an upcoming dinner engagement with Mitchel, Ariana resolved to talk about the investigation in person.

The designated dinner hour was yet to arrive, so Ariana and Sarah made their way to the reserved restaurant to discuss the menu options beforehand.

Ariana had chosen the venue. The ordinary eatery nestled amidst a bustling locality. Its unassuming interior design welcomed a steady stream of people.

Ariana found solace in such humble surroundings, always relishing the simple pleasures of dining in unpretentious establishments.

With an hour to spare, they had ample time to settle in and make themselves comfortable.
