Chapter 540
Frank smiled, and thought of Natalie and Brandon. “Well, she and her husband both care about their friends a lot, and…” They always managed to get him to clean their mess.
He kept the last part to himself though.
“Sorry, what did you say?” Elizabeth hadn’t heard him clearly.
“Nothing,” replied Frank, shaking his head. “Are we going to have dinner?” He looked at her expectantly.
“I’d love that,” said Elizabeth, smiling. She did feel very hungry.
Frank nodded, adding, “Just wait for me here for a moment. I’ve been on duty for two days and haven’t changed my clothes. I don’t think the restaurant would let me in.” He walked over to his office.
Elizabeth remained on the bench. She wasn’t waiting for long; Frank emerged with his coat after about ten minutes.
He had changed into a white sweater and white shoes, and contrasting trousers.
He looked clean and tidy, and his hair was no longer unkempt. Despite his proclivity for coldness, he was an undeniably handsome man.
Elizabeth suddenly understood what Natalie said about Frank being very good-looking.
Seeing that Elizabeth was staring at him intently, Frank couldn’t help touching his face and asked curiously, “Is there something on my face?”
Elizabeth regained her senses and looked away from him. She then replied casually, “I saw the photo on your desk. I was just thinking that it is tough being a doctor. It makes people look tired and ugly. Please ignore me, it must be presumptuous of me to have such a thought. You look just the same as you did before now that you change your clothes and brush your hair.” 5
Hearing that, Frank nodded silently. He then turned to Elizabeth and asked, “Do you usually praise others so emotionlessly? Did Natalie tell you that you look scary when you were angry?”
Elizabeth replied in surprise, “When was I angry with you?”
“When you walked out of my office. I thought I said something that made you angry,” answered Frank as he recollected what happened moments ago. Elizabeth’s face was just too straight and cold.
Elizabeth went silent and thought for a moment. She waved her hand as she explained, “I was born with a stony face and because of this, no one dared to provoke me in the past. I wasn’t really angry with you just now. Please don’t mind me.”
Looking at her wry smile, Frank couldn’t help smiling.
“You look good when you smile. You should smile more often,” said Frank gently. “There’s a good French restaurant nearby. We can eat there.”
Elizabeth wasn’t picky with her food. However, the restaurant that Frank recommended happened to be the same one she used to go to with Jorge when they were passionately in love. She hadn’t been there for a long time since their breakup.
Elizabeth looked absent-mindedly at the flashing signboard outside the restaurant.
“You don’t like it? We can go to another one,” proposed Frank. He deduced from her hesitation that she must have been here before and didn’t like the food.
“No, here is fine. I used to come here a lot. I just couldn’t recognize it just now. Maybe it’s because they’ve renovated,” said Elizabeth hurriedly. She then took the lead and walked into the restaurant while lowering her head and trying to hide her panic.
