Professor F novel Chapter 86

They were dropped off at the entrance of a famous Italian restaurant, Flynn waiting by the entrance with Eunice. August avoided his gaze and focused her attention at the restaurant.

She remembered the place being packed during dinner time with its entrance lined up with arriving guests wearing expensive clothes and riding luxurious cars.

She also remembered Gabi telling her parents is part of the restaurant owner's group of legal advisers. And that the owner is an artist who painted the walls and ceiling making it look like you dined in a museum—thus, the popularity of the place.

But tonight, the place looked empty, setting in a mood of intimacy for all of them as they entered. She checked the day of the week on her phone and she wondered if there was anything special that day for the place to be empty—

"Welcome!" A good looking man in his late twenties with a subtle beard wearing a white turtleneck long sleeves, tattered blue jeans paired with his white sneakers approached them beaming with a smile.

Who is this gorgeous guy?

She watched Flynn shook hands with the man before he introduced them. "It's good to have you all tonight. I'm Matteo de Luca. And this is my manager and executive chef—" He introduced the two people standing next to him. "—I hope you'll enjoy what we prepared for tonight." He gives each of them a glance. "Of course, the restaurant's all yours this evening." He added before he excused himself and left.

Her mouth dropped open, same as Gabi's and Charlie's. He is the owner! Matteo de Luca himself!

She saw the shocked and amazed expression on their faces.

They freaking got the restaurant for themselves! Like Flynn just reserved the luxurious restaurant for them!

And Gabi couldn't hide the happiness she felt seeing the gorgeous artist she was talking about before! She sighed inside. She could see it in her beaming face!

The fangirl inside her friend is screaming!

They were escorted to the best table in the middle of the restaurant where they have a full view of the painted ceiling and luxurious chandeliers.

She narrowed her eyes, knew Gabi was planning on something when she intentionally occupied the seat between Eunice and Charlie, leaving the seat between Charlie and Flynn for her.

She had no choice. As she tried to calm her nerves, her mind won't stop wondering why Eunice is with Flynn and why he wanted to have dinner with her when Eunice is in New York.

After taking their seats, the waiters came out from the kitchen wearing their black crisp vest staff uniform, bringing the appetizers while the others served them red wine.

The awkward silence started to fill the air and she discreetly glances on Flynn's direction. She immediately looked away blushing when their eyes met, realizing that he was looking at her the whole time.

She cleared her throat as she reached for her glass of red wine while the others started eating the appetizer.

"So—" Eunice broke the silence as she gives her a glance before looking at Flynn. "—I heard you're working on a big project. Are things going well between the two of you?"
