Chapter 1716
Griffon came down the escalator and saw Taya standing in the restaurant, lost in thought.
He quickly walked over and took the dish from her hand. "Honey, let the servants handle this kind of thing in the future. Don't carry it yourself, you might burn your hand."
The tenderness and indulgence in his tone hit Taya's heart, stirring up a sense of reluctance. However, she forced herself to respond obediently, "Okay..."
Griffon set down the pot and glanced at the Davies siblings who had just walked in. He grabbed Taya's hand and placed it in his palm. "Taya, I have to leave. Take care of yourself while I'm gone."
Taya felt like she was ready, but when she heard the words 'I'm leaving', her eyes still turned sad.
She didn't want him to see, so she quickly raised her hand and pointed to the dishes on the table, shifting her gaze. "Honey, that's the lunch I made for you. Can you please finish it before you leave?"
Holden stood at the doorway and heard the words. He raised his wrist and checked his watch. "Mr. Knight, we only have half an hour left before the ship departs. We're running out of time."
Griffon ignored Holden and went straight to Taya, pulling out a chair and sitting down.
Holden glanced at Emelyn before shifting his gaze to Taya.
Taya wanted to be a little rebellious and have Griffon eat her last homemade lunch.
However, she also had to force herself to grow into a resilient tree.
After staring at Griffon for a moment, she slowly spoke, "Honey, don't keep people waiting for too long."
Griffon's hand holding the spoon froze for a moment, then he scooped up a spoonful of soup and brought it to Taya's lips.
He didn't say anything, just gestured with his eyes for Taya to finish her drink. But Taya just smiled and shook her head, "Let's go."
Griffon tightened his grip on the spoon.
He stared at Taya, silent for a long time before putting down his spoon and letting go of her, getting up and leaving.
