Chapter: 1474
Moreover, at that moment, she was completely mesmerized by the smile on Octavian's face. Without thinking, she answered, “Over medium, please."
The waitress in charge of taking their order was actually an international student in Highwyn.
Hearing what Barbara said, she couldn't help but burst into laughter. Barbara blinked in confusion.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Since Barbara barely had the opportunity to dine out, let alone enjoy steaks in a fine restaurant, she forgot that the correct term to use was “medium well," not “over medium."
As she gradually realized her mistake, her face flushed red with embarrassment.
But Octavian just continued to smile and said, "Please tell the chef that the red wine steak for this lady can only be over medium. If he cannot meet this standard, I will complain to your headquarters. 0h, and the red wine used for the steak must be either Lafite or Cabernet Sauvignon," After that, he took out a VIP card.
Barbara felt so flattered that she almost melted on the spot.
She was particularly satisfied with the reaction of the waitress.
The condescending look on the waitress’ face had now been replaced by fear and trepidation. She was obviously taken aback by Octavian's VIP card.
Although Barbara was overjoyed, she still asked shyly, “Octavian, don't you think you're going overboard to defend me? What if it causes you trouble
However, Octavian didn't reply immediately.
His gaze was fixed on Barbara's face, as if he was intoxicated by her beauty, He stared at her for half a minute before finally coming to his senses,
“Oh, forgive me, Miss Herrera, That was rude of me," Octavian stammered, blushing.
"It's just that you are the most beautiful and elegant woman I have ever had the pleasure of setting my eyes on, I just can't look away from you. It's an honor to dine with you, I'm willing to pay any price for it."
These were the most romantic words that Barbara had ever heard in her life. It was the kind of thing that she had only daydreamed about.
She was so excited that her hands trembled slightly. As a result, she had to hide them under the table.
Even so, Barbara couldn't resist the urge to smile, The corners of her mouth lifted to a curve.
She wished she could bask in this moment forever.
She made a small slip of the tongue but had seen Octavian come to her defense at once like a knight in shining armor. She wanted to show her appreciation for it.
“still, I feel bad for causing you any trouble. Let me pay for this meal, okay?" As she spoke, Barbara winked at Octavian,
“Oh, no, absolutely not," Octavian said firmly.
“If you deprive me of the right to pay the bill, I will be too ashamed to ask you out again, Miss Herrera, Please, my beautiful Barbara, don't be so cruel to me,"
Barbara was so over the moon that she almost cried. At this moment, her crush on Anthony had completely disappeared.
