"Crap! They are feeding each other in public... How bold! Isn't he worried that someone would take photos of them?"
"I'm really curious about what his girlfriend looks like. She seems... plain from the back."
"I will pretend to walk past them and check his girlfriend out." One of the women stood up. "I can't accept that Eric is dating someone unless his girlfriend is really pretty..."
With that, the woman walked past Eric and Avery and was stunned when she saw Avery's face.
"This woman... Why does she look... exactly like Avery Tate?!" the woman thought.
Avery did not want Eric to spoon-feed her, but Eric insisted out of concern that she could not see clearly. After being fed a few spoonfuls of food, she asked that he simply place the food onto her plate.
"Eric, it’s almost dinner time now. There will be more and more customers coming in here. You should be more mindful of your image," she said and moved further into the couch to distance herself from him.
"This is Bridgedale. Not many people know me," he said modestly.
"But Mike said that you are famous here. Go back to sitting across from me! Once Hayden arrives, he will sit next to me."
Unable to argue with Avery, Eric moved back to his seat across from her.
In the hospital, Elliot leaned against the bedhead with his eyes closed.
Chad opened the bag he had brought and took the dinner boxes out.
When he received the call from Natalie and was told that Elliot had collapsed, he immediately traveled to Bridgedale with the bodyguards.
"Mr. Foster, have some soup!" Chad held the bowl of soup out and asked, "Do you need me to feed you?"
Elliot opened his eyes. "My hands work just fine. Put it there. I will eat later."
"The soup I bought is warm and it's going to go cold." Chad glanced at the time. "It's half past six now."
