Liam saw the exchange and chuckled in amusement, "Oh gosh, you two are interesting. I'll just decide for the both of you."
Vania and Hanson locked gazes and laughed before nodding at Liam. "Let's go."
Their in-sync actions made Thomas' smile drop instantly.
However, he wasn't that sad because he could still have a meal with Vania.
It was fortunate that he brought up the rear, so no one noticed when his control over his facial expression slipped.
When they piled into the same car, he spoke, "What should we have?"
He didn't really know Vania's preferences.
So, he wanted to take this opportunity to get to know her better since even Liam knew she liked orange juice.
"Let's go get some spicy barbecue," Hanson answered, which was surprising since he rarely answered such questions.
He remembered that Vania mentioned this afternoon about not having spicy barbecue for a long time. So she must have been craving this for quite some time since she liked spicy things.
Thomas didn't object to the suggestion and made a mental note of Vania's preference for spicy food.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Vania's eyes immediately lit up.
Her actions were akin to a child who had arrived at a candy store, and she eagerly went through the menu.
It was Thomas' first time seeing this side of Vania, and her bright smile made his heart race.
When he saw that she was so happy, he felt his mood brighten. He thought about trying to ask her out for spicy barbecue one day.
He didn't really have an opinion about barbecue or spicy food. So, it didn't matter if he had them or not.
He didn't eat these foods when he had gatherings. To put it plainly, he could count the number of times he had such food with just one hand.
Vania was engrossed with the menu since she was in charge of ordering.
That was because the three men with her weren't familiar with this type of food.
"We'll get a mix of spicy and non-spicy." Vania propped her chin on one hand as she placed her order with the waiter.
Hanson could not eat spicy food. She still remembered that he had to be sent to the hospital one time he ate something spicy. It was a nightmare.
"Give me one of each of these." She then pointed to some milder mains.
These were for Hanson since he could only eat them.
She could not let him go hungry since they were out for dinner.
Hanson looked at the serious Vania and smiled lovingly at her as he patted her head as if praising her.
She lifted her head and met his eyes, flashing her pearly whites with a big smile.
Hanson knew she was giddy with joy because she could finally eat the barbecue she had been craving.
Yet, her smile was like a light that ignited a fire of desire in him.
He lowered his head and whispered to her, "Don't look at me with that smile. I might not be able to hold back and have you too."
His voice was so low that only the both of them could hear his murmurs.
Vania could not help but flush crimson. "You're shameless."
Even though her retort was low, the way she forced the words out through gritted teeth hinted at her embarrassment.
That made Hanson laugh out loud. How could his wife be so cute? Didn't she know that he would get a kick out of it the more she behaved like that?
As such were the twisted desires of men.
She didn't read his mind but still discreetly moved further away from him.
