Derek sent Meredith home and went back to work.
Meredith turned on her phone and flipped through the good and cheap restaurants she used to go to.
In the past, she was a carefree foodie. She liked to look for delicious food everywhere.
Looking at the content on the phone, Meredith smiled bitterly.
Unfortunately, she had already been completely changed by harsh reality.
However, Meredith soon found a good restaurant and looked at the menu online. She carefully planed what Derek and she would eat.
...
The day passed quickly.
Derek got off work and went straight to Meredith's place.
Meredith had already booked the restaurant and sent him the address. They drove straight to that place.
Along the way, Derek was in a good mood.
They quickly arrived at the place, which was a small restaurant.
Derek could not help but frown as he looked at the restaurant. He seldom came to such a place.
Meredith smiled as she noticed his expression. "Don't worry. This place is small, but it's quite clean. I'm sure it won't cause you any problems."
Derek nodded and followed Meredith inside.
Looking at the familiar little restaurant, Meredith recalled the past.
Her high school was not far from here. Every time she was hungry after evening self-study, Julius would bring her here to eat some snacks to soothe their tired body.
Those memories were far away from her, but they were still so precious.
From her eyes, Derek knew that she was recalling and did not interrupt her.
"What would you like to order?"
At this time, the proprietress came over and saw Meredith. She was a little surprised. "Are you the little girl who used to come here to eat?"
Meredith was very pretty. She was the high school belle, and many boys would come over to please her when she was eating here. At that time, the boss joked that Meredith was a living sign of their restaurant.
Meredith was a little surprised. She hadn't been here for three years. She didn't expect the proprietress to know her.
She nodded. "It's me. It's been a long time."
The proprietress talked with Meredith for a while, and then, her eyes fell on Derek. When she saw the man's dignified appearance and his overpriced suit, she couldn't help patting Meredith on the shoulder.
"Good! You're so lucky to have such a promising young boyfriend."
Meredith was embarrassed for a moment. Boyfriend? Although they were indeed married before, it was not what she just imagined.
"We..."
Just as Meredith was about to explain, Derek interrupted her. "Madame, could you recommend some signature dishes in the restaurant?"
Meredith's explanation came to an abrupt end.
