Aveline ordered all of Lucas' favorite dishes, then handed the menu back to the server and looked at Judy. "Did you get all that, Miss Thompson?"
"I...," Judy hesitated, surprised that Aveline would take the initiative to tell her all this—as if she were trying to teach her. What kind of thought process was this? What exactly was Aveline thinking?
Hearing Aveline’s words, Lucas' expression immediately turned colder, and the tension around him seemed to thicken.
But Aveline appeared unfazed and calmly continued, "This way, you won’t have to ask him next time. I’m sure you’ve noticed by now that he’s not much of a talker."
Judy felt a pang of irritation. "You don't need to worry about that. After spending more time together, I'll naturally pick up on these things."
"Alright then," Aveline nodded, as if satisfied with the response.
She then turned to Lucas and asked, "Have you thought about what I mentioned earlier?"
Lucas’ sharp, handsome features hardened, and he didn’t even bother to glance at her.
Aveline blinked, then turned to Judy and remarked, "See? He’s quite rude, isn’t he?"
A stifled laugh broke the tension as Maria quickly turned her head away, pressing her lips together in an effort to keep from laughing, hoping to avoid drawing attention to herself.
Aveline calmly took a seat beside them and resumed eating when the food was served.
Judy, unable to hold back any longer, asked, "Miss Young, didn’t you just eat?"
Aveline replied, "Yes, but I wasn’t full, and those dishes weren’t that great, so I’m trying these instead."
