Vania could sense danger from being too close to Hanson.
Thomas felt a stab to his heart as he watched their display of affection. They were so focused on each other that it was as if only the both of them existed in the world.
So, he inhaled deeply and then asked, "Ahem. Liam and I are still here. Can you guys tone it down?"
He said that with a smile, and no one could pick up on his true feelings.
"Exactly," Liam echoed. "We're both still single. So you two should consider our feelings and stop the PDA."
However, Hanson just lazily placed an arm on the back of Vania's seat. "Sure. Since you're so lonely, we'll not agitate you two single men."
"Ha. Are you poking fun at us now?" Liam snarked.
It had been a long time since they spent time together in such a relaxed manner.
So, they immediately started bantering, "We think that being single is the best."
Hanson wrapped his arm around Vania's shoulders and snorted, "Ignorance is truly bliss for you, then."
Only men like them who had never experienced having a wife would claim that being single was the best.
Therefore, he continued proudly, "You should be grateful that I'm not avoiding hanging out with you both. What's there to be proud of?"
Huh. So, he's going that far? Liam thought to himself.
He could not think of a comeback and just waved his hands, "Now, that's too much. It's no fun anymore. Vania, let's just eat."
The dishes had all been served, and they could start their meal.
However, Vania just smiled at the waiter who served them and winked at him cheekily before asking, "Do you want to bet with me?"
The waiter was unnerved as he asked nervously, "B-Bet on what?"
He had only started working at that restaurant not too long ago and was very curious.
As most of the customers were mostly famous celebrities and CEOs, they all discussed gossip that was hard to come by for ordinary people like him.
He had watched in awe as Vania and the rest entered the establishment while bantering and laughing.
Now that he was faced with her sudden question, he didn't know what to do and was worried he had done something wrong.
Nevertheless, she smiled as she rested her chin on her hand and looked at him. "Do you believe that I can put my hand onto the grill?"
Now not only the waiter but Hanson and the rest were also shocked and looked at Vania incredulously.
Was she going to perform some circus trick now?
No matter what, they could not figure out where she was going with this and waited in anticipation of what came next.
She blinked her eyes and kept that mysterious smile as she stared at the waiter waiting for his reply.
The waiter blushed under her gaze as he averted his eyes. "N-No. I don't believe you. How could you put your hand onto the grill? You'll get a burn."
He answered her inquiry honestly. He still didn't know why she would suddenly want to make a bet with him.
Vania was so gorgeous, and he didn't dare look at her.
When she heard the waiter's answer, she harrumphed in response as the smile on her face disappeared, and she smacked the table.
The other three men at the table were engrossed in the scene and were shocked by the sudden loud noise.
Needless to say, the waiter was frightened as he could not figure out why Vania, who had been smiling, suddenly became upset.
Could it be because he didn't believe she could put her hand on the grill?
Even Hanson couldn't help but wonder. Is my wife going to give me another surprise? Did she learn magic tricks when I wasn't around?
