Rose noticed their expression but thought that they might have a problem with Rey Mason. She began to tell them everything that happened from the moment she entered the restaurant and how she went to the restroom because she was uncomfortable and how she was on way out and unfortunately encountered Rey.
“That damn prick doesn't know when to stop does he." Christopher was the first person to speak after Rose was done explaining.
“A beauty like you is expected to draw those kinds of jerks to you. You should have done more than just kicking him." Edwards also added.
The reason why they were all agitated was because of the fact that there were a lot of disgusting rumors surrounding Rey Mason and all the dirty things he usually does. For someone like that to try and use force on a little girl like Rose was enough to make them lose their temper but they all manage to control themselves.
“Anyways, since you're here to have lunch, you can eat with us. We were waiting for him before we ordered our dish but now that he is here you obviously don't want to eat on the first floor there is plenty of room here.” Christopher suggested and looked at the rest of friends who nodded their heads at him.
Rose shamelessly nodded her head, since she obviously didn't want to eat outside as well.
“I won't be eating because Leo brought lunch earlier and I have to eat it before coming here." Nicholas suddenly accounce.
" What?! Then why are you here then and you're even late too?” Christopher snapped his head to look at Nicholas. They had all been starving themselves thinking that he would come and he did only to tell them that he had eaten.
" I had to come because you wouldn't let me have peace if I didn't come. Just coming late and you aren't letting me have peace.” Nicholas coldly glared at Christopher.
" That's enough guys.” Edwards quickly cut them off, knowing that they can continue like that.
" But he is paying for the bill since he came late.” Christopher argued and pointed at Nicholas.
" Did you think I can't pay the bill? It's not like you can eat the entire restaurant. Go ahead and eat whatever you like.” Nicholas proudly boasted with a serious expression on his face.
“This guy-” Christopher was unable to finish his words when the door opened and a waiter walked in. It was Edward who had called him by pressing the button by the table while those two were still arguing among each other.
Just like that, they ordered the food they wanted, including Rose. Rose had no idea that she had just dined with four most powerful men in the whole of California, though she knew a little bit about who Alex was.
A few moments later they were done eating. The only people who didn't eat were Alex and Nicholas, they only ordered drinks.
After the waiter left, Rose's cellphone began ringing in her bag. “Excuse me,” she told the older men and pulled out her cell phone and saw that it was Alisa calling her.
“Go ahead." Edward was the one who nodded his head.
