" I'm just here to buy you a meal. Why are you caring so much?" Cathy glanced at him.
They went upstairs and got into a big luxury dining room.
A table for forty people. Mr. Black invited Cathy sitting next to him.
Aaron saw that and tried to sit next to Cathy but he was pushed away by Cathy calmly. Cathy sat on the seat with smile and looked at him pacifying.
After all the people were sat down, the dishes were served. Waiters brought several plates of red hairy crabs.
Mr. Black was pleased and inviting guests to eat," Feel free to eat. There are a lot of other dishes later."
Then he took a crab forwardly for Cathy," Miss Lawson, please have a try. These are the most fresh hairy crabs sent by the hotel today."
Crab was cold in property and a pregnant woman could not eat them. Cathy took a look at it and smiled politely," Thank you very much! I could help myself with that."
After she said that, she took up the tools and used them to strip off the shell of the crab slowly and carefully. She was mean to waste the time. When the crabs were served to every guest in the room, she pushed a plate of crab meat she prepared to Mr. Black. She said blandly," Mr. Black, this is for you. Please enjoy."
Mr. Black stunned for a second. His baldest head was reflecting light and he had an expression of feeling extremely flattered and said," For me?"
Cathy endured the sense of sick and nodded with smile," Yes."
Aaron glanced at them but did not say anything.
Mr. Black was eating happily and he did not notice that Cathy did not have any of it.
But she could escape a moment, but she couldn't run away forever at all. Cathy had her expression changed since she saw the dishes served after.
They were all forbidden to a pregnant woman. She was quite careful about that. She would not even touch them at all when she was at home. However, the kinds of those she could not eat were complete on the table now.
But Aaron did not know that and he took some with his chopsticks thoughtfully to Cathy," Miss. Lawson, please."
Mr. Black just received the kindness from Cathy and it was his chance to show himself. He served a heap of dishes to Cathy with one breath," Miss. Lawson, you are too thin. Eat more."
Cathy's expression was rigid imperceptibly for a second and she smiled with out emotion," Mr. Black, I could help myself. Please enjoy the dishes yourself."
She frowned and squinted slightly when she turned her head back.
These dishes...Such a coincidence.
Cathy pretending to eat a little genteelly. A waiter pushed a cart and walked in when Cathy had not got a clue.
" Mr. Black, the wine is ready to drink. Would you like to have it now?"
"Ok."
The waiter nodded and served the wine for each one of the guests.
Cathy glanced that the cold wine was still vaporizing. She twinkled her eyes suddenly and she frowned harder.
A cold wine?
Aaron noticed that, too. He turned his head and his sight contacted with Cathy's.
Mr. Black took his glass and raised up, he said," Today is the first formal dinner-party since the cooperation of LT Company and Vanten Technology Company. I wish we could work hard together in the future and there will be more chance to communicate like this. Let's have a toast!"
People all stood up and raised their cups with smile on their face," Cheers!"
Cathy lifted her cup with the same expression. She was stopped by Aaron when she was just going to have a toast. The resonant voice of the boy interrupted the guests.
" Miss. Lawson, you are not capable to drink, aren't you?"
People stunned and looked at her together.
Cathy stunned, too. She looked at Aaron blankly.
