“I... IT guess."

Claudia found herself at a loss for what to order, but when she Locked eyes with Bennett, her words took a different turn

“What do you mean?"

“I'm not sure what I want," Claudia admitted, a slight hesitation in her voice.

The prices on the menu were unbelievably high and she considered it wasteful to order such expensive dishes.

Looking Claudia from across the room, Anthony felt a strong urge to approach her. He started to move towards her but was taken aback as he observed Bennett's hand tenderly brushing her lips.

Their interaction was soft, with a hint of Claudia's coy demeanor. The air between them was electric with intimacy.

A twinge of heartache surged through Anthony, his desire was to whisk Claudia away.

However, the harsh reality was that she didn't even give him a second glance. Saddened by the realization, a bitter taste filled Anthony's mouth.

Kristy had noticed Anthony's constant glances at Claudia ever since their arrival. As he began to drift towards Claudia, Kristy couldn't contain herself. "Mr. Nixon, our table is this way."

Upon hearing Kristy's voice, Anthony averted his gaze and proceeded to their table, leaving behind his previous position.

Their table was approximately thirty feet away from Claudia's. Once seated, Anthony's gaze remained fixed on Claudia, his eyes unwavering and captivated by her presence.

Feeling Like a joke, Kristy's frustration reached its boiling point, and she erupted in a fit of anger. In a moment of fury, she forcefully threw the tableware she held onto the table, capturing Anthony's attention and causing him to turn his gaze towards her.

“Anthony Nixon.

Can't you show a Little courtesy to me?"

“I apologize," Anthony replied, avoiding Kristy's gaze.

“I believe you're aware that my presence here is merely a formal obligation."

He never had any romantic interest in Kristy. The only reason he was dining with her was due to Rachel's coercion.

Had he known he would encounter Claudia, he would have certainly rejected Kristy's dinner invitation.

Kristy's face drained of color. "Is this about Claudia?"

Anthony didn't respond, which was an implicit admission.

Over the years, Kristy had continuously failed to gain Anthony's affection due to his feelings for Claudia.

Yet, what was so special about Claudia?

How could she Love Anthony and marry Bennett just six weeks after their supposed wedding?
