Chapter 221: Garden Feast and Family Expectations

(Third person’s POV)

That evening, Ethan Quinn invited them to a well–known private restaurant nestled within classical werewolf gardens. The restaurant was set within traditional landscaping, with bluestone paths leading deeper into the

tranquil setting.

Pavilions with upturned eaves dotted the landscape, surrounding a serene pond where water lilies floated and koi swam lazily. The gentle ripples on the water’s surface caught the fading light, creating a peaceful atmosphere that contrasted sharply with their earlier carnival excitement.

As the group arrived in the twilight, golden sunlight bathed the garden in a soft glow. Rebecca Frost paused at the entrance, her eyes wide with appreciation.

“This place is absolutely beautiful,” she breathed, taking in the elegant architecture and carefully manicured

grounds.

Ethan Quinn smiled proudly at her reaction. “The restaurant isn’t open to the public. It belongs to a friend of

mine.”

Lily’s eyes narrowed playfully, her earlier reconciliation with Ethan making her more comfortable with teasing.

“A female friend, I suppose?”

Ethan quickly shook his head, recognizing the dangerous territory he was entering. “No, no. The owner is Tyler Davis, a male classmate from university who specializes in contemporary cuisine.”

Gabriel Andrews nodded in confirmation. “I know Tyler. He pursued further. culinary studies abroad after

graduation. His food is exceptional.”

Lily’s suspicion melted away at the explanation. “Only male staff serve here too,” Ethan added reassuringly. “Tyler and I have been here before, just the two of us.”

The clarification seemed to satisfy Lily completely, and she linked her arm through Ethan’s as they continued

down the bluestone path.

Reaching the moonlit pavilion, they found the table already set with steaming dishes. The thoughtful gesture

by Ethan to cater to their hunger after a long day at the carnival was evident in every carefully arranged plate.

“Perfect timing,” Connor Rivers observed, his arm still protectively around Olivia Winters‘ waist. “I’m starving

after all those rides.”

Before they could settle down, Ethan pulled out his phone. “Let me call Tyler to come greet everyone properly.”

Within minutes, Tyler Davis appeared from the kitchen area. He was tall and lean with an athletic build, his short tousled hair and striking features embodying the confident charm of a successful young entrepreneur.

“Everyone, this is Tyler Davis,” Ethan announced. “Tyler, meet my friends.”

Tyler’s eyes immediately found Rebecca, and his expression brightened noticeably. “It’s a pleasure to meet

you all.”

Lily, still in a playful mood from their reconciliation, stepped forward with a mischievous smile. “Tyler, you’re

quite handsome Are you single?

Ethan’s face darkened instantly. He quickly wrapped his arm around Lilys shoutters, petting her doser The Is Lily, my girlfriend‘

Tyler chuckled at the obvious display of possessiveness. Tucky man, Ethan She’s beautiful”

After a round of introductions, the group settled in to enjoy the meat. The contemporary opathe Bedug to Gabriel’s praise, with each dish perfectly prepared and artfully presented

Turning to Olivia and Connor, Lily asked hopefully, “Will you two join us for drinks?”

The group began to disperse, with Tyler Davis personally escorting them to the garden entrance. His eyes lingered on Rebecca as they said their goodbyes.

The next day, Olivia returned to the Winters Family Estate for dinner. The familiar surroundings of her childhood home brought mixed emotions as she sat at the dining table with Richard Winters and Natalie

Winters.

During the meal, Richard casually inquired, “Olivia, how are you and that lawyer Adrian getting along these days?”

Olivia paused, her fork halfway to her mouth. “We’re just ordinary friends, Dad. Nothing more.”

Natalie Winters chimed in with a teasing smile. “Olivia, you can’t keep pretending not to notice Adrian’s affections. He’s quite taken with you.”

Richard nodded approvingly. “I’m impressed by him. He seems like a good match for you

Olivia set down her fork firmly, “I have no romantic interest in Adrian Sinclair. I’m focused on my career right

now”

Richard’s expression grew more serious. “Olivia, you’re twenty–seven years old. You should consider finding a

mate soon.”

“I want to focus on building my law firm,” Olivia stated firmly, her voice carrying the determination that had driven her professional success. “That’s my priority.”

Richard studied his daughter’s resolute expression. Though persistent by nature, he recognized the futility of pushing further.

“You have your own arrangements, that’s good,” he said finally, his tone accepting. “Dad just made a suggestion, let’s eat.”
