Dawn had no choice but to stay.
Before long, the steak was ready and served to the table.
Dawn said in a sulky manner, “Let's dig in.”
Picking up the knife and fork, she began to eat slowly.
Meanwhile, Zeke was in quite a dilemma.
Although he had tasted the best food in the world, he disliked Western food. Hence, he had not eaten much Western food and did not know how to eat with the assortment of knives and forks.
Therefore, he could only imitate Dawn and used the knife and fork in a rusty manner.
Dawn felt more contempt for him, as he was clearly a country bumpkin who had never eaten Western food.
She just wanted to finish eating as soon as possible and leave, as there were several tables of guests around them who were giving them strange looks.
While the two were eating, four people suddenly walked into the restaurant and stood beside Dawn.
“Oh, hey, Dawn, you're eating here too. What a coincidence.”
Dawn looked up.
After seeing the group of people, her face instantly flushed with embarrassment.
These four people were all her colleagues.
Leading the group, the man with slicked-back hair was her superior, Dane Edward. He was a team leader at the company.
It was extremely embarrassing to be seen eating with a country bumpkin by her colleagues.
She stammered, “Mr. Edward, w-w-what a coincidence.”
Dane nodded his head and looked at Dawn with a lewd expression. “Yeah, it's a small world. By the way, I'm treating fellow colleagues to a meal, why don't you join us?”
Dawn glanced at Zeke, looking stumped.
She felt bad to leave Zeke behind and eat with Dane.
At last, she shook her head. “Sorry, Mr. Edward, I'm eating with my friend now.”
A trace of displeasure flashed across Dane's eyes. How dare this girl reject me in front of the other colleagues.
It made him lose face.
