Yanis looked at him and couldn't help but reach out and gently ruffle Zane's hair. "I know."
Just as Zane was about to speak, he saw Bonnie standing by the window, looking at them with a disdainful expression. He raised his hand and rolled down the car window. "What's up, Miss Cooke?"
Bonnie looked at Zane with contempt. "Can't you two consider the feelings of us single folks?"
Yanis suppressed a smile and looked at Bonnie. "What's wrong?"
"Old Mr. Cooke asked me to ask you if you and your Mr. Lawrence can come over for dinner tomorrow night?" Bonnie leaned against the car and asked.
Yanis glanced at Zane's face. "Do you have any plans for tomorrow night?"
Zane responded, "Not at the moment."
"In that case, should I let Old Mr. Cooke know later? We'll go for dinner tomorrow night then?" Yanis nodded.
"Alright, go on, hurry up and leave. You lovebirds should go home and be lovey-dovey." Bonnie waved her hand, signaling Yanis and Zane to leave.
"Okay, we'll head home now."
Bonnie covered her eyes with her hand and waved for Yanis and Zane to leave. After they left, Bonnie turned around and greeted Linda before driving to Maple House.
When Bonnie arrived at Maple House, Lane was already there.
"Did you wait long?" Bonnie entered the private room and greeted Lane.
"I just got here a little while ago," Lane stood up and pulled out a chair for Bonnie. "Have a seat."
Bonnie thanked him and sat down on the chair. "Yanis originally said we'd have dinner together tonight, but I made plans with you, so I stood her up."
Bonnie could tell that Lane could see through her thoughts, so she tried to act natural when she was with him.
"Why didn't you bring her along? I actually wanted to invite her as well, but I was worried Mr. Lawrence would get jealous, so I didn't dare ask." Lane whispered.
Bonnie chuckled, "The lovebirds went for a candlelit dinner, they don't want to be with us single folks."
Lane listened to Bonnie's words and chuckled softly, "We'll do it together next time."
Saying that, Lane took a menu from the side and handed it to Bonnie. "Take a look, choose something to eat."
Bonnie took the menu from him. "The dishes here are pretty good. Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Lane replied, "Not really. Just order what you like, don't worry about me."
Bonnie looked at the menu while responding, "That won't do. This way, I'll know what you like to eat and what you don't like for next time."
As Bonnie spoke, Lane's gaze fell on her face, and he couldn't help but space out for a moment.
"Do I have something on my face?" Bonnie raised her eyes and coincidentally met Lane's gaze. She reached up and touched her face.
Lane slightly averted his gaze, feeling a bit flustered. "No, have you finished looking? Shall I call the waiter?"
Bonnie nodded. "Almost done. Why don't you take a look at what you'd like to eat? We don't need to order too much since it's just the two of us."
Lane responded with an "mm-hmm" and took the menu from Bonnie. He casually marked a couple of items and then called the waiter over to hand him the menu.
