Shaking her head, Jaelyn replied, "No, I actually came here alone. I wanted to revisit this place."

Her affectionate gaze reminded Sanford of their past dinners together.

After a moment of silence, he suggested, "Allow me to treat you to today's meal."

Politely declining, Jaelyn responded, “No, thank you."

“Just consider it a celebration of your rebirth," Sanford insisted.

Jaelyn maintained her gaze on him, expressing her gratitude with a simple, "Thank you."

Sanford shifted his gaze away and turned to Maggie, saying, “Let’s go.”

Nodding in agreement, Maggie followed Sanford as he led her to his exclusive room.

Before entering, she cast one last glance back at Jaelyn.

Jaelyn stood there, slender and a Little lonely.

Maggie glanced downward, avoiding eye contact.

Once inside the private room, Sanford began placing his order, appearing calm on the surface.

However, Maggie couldn't help but notice his absent-mindedness.

How could he be so indifferent towards his beloved ex-girlfriend?

"I need to use the restroom," Sanford stated after finalizing their order.

"Alright," Maggie replied, though Sanford didn't head towards the bathroom within the private room; instead, he exited the room.

Was he going to meet Jaelyn?

"Maggie, who's Jaelyn?" Bart inquired after Sanford's departure, breaking his silence.

“His ex-girlfriend," Maggie responded.

Bart's eyes widened with realization.

“No wonder."

Maggie glanced at him, curiosity in her eyes.
