A strange silence suddenly enveloped the room.
Sitting at a distance, Wendy dared not touch the delicious food before her. She swallowed nervously while waiting for whatever else Colton had to say. I already relented, so what else could he do to me? I'm his younger sister, anyway, so he has no other options.
Seeing that she had relented, Colton suddenly became aware of his own attitude. His expression softened, and so did his voice. "Are you done?"
"Yeah, I'm full," replied Wendy. In reality, she hadn't eaten enough, but the fuss Colton made caused her to lose her appetite all of a sudden.
Colton looked darkly at her for a long time before getting out to leave the private room.
Wendy wondered what he was doing. However, seeing his suit jacket left in his chair, she knew that he would be back in a moment, so she sat there quietly without touching anything. He'll be back after finishing whatever he wanted to do, anyway. No, wait a minute. Suddenly, a realization struck her. Could he have gone to see Nicole? A dreadful thought crept into her mind. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became that her guess was right. She couldn't be bothered anymore; she rushed out of the room without the slightest hesitation.
Colton's private room wasn't far from Nicole's, but on the way, he had to pass by the spot where the waiter was stationed.
Just as Wendy got there, she saw Colton's tall figure. He seemed to be doing something, leaning slightly forward with his eyes fixed upon the tablet on the table while casually tapping away. Seeing his casual demeanor, she couldn't help but swear under her breath, "He's so gentle with outsiders, but I've never seen him being so gentle with his own sister!" What made her even more disgruntled was that he was so gentle with a man, which left her frustrated.
Perhaps having heard her quiet complaint, Colton looked back just in time to meet her angry gaze. "What are you doing out here?"

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
