"He's not here yet, sit down, it's time for dinner, we'll order in the meantime."
Anna asked her to sit next to her. Serena sat down and glanced at the time. It was half past six. It was still an hour and a half until eight o'clock. Time should be enough no?
Seeing her appearance, Anna could not help but ask, "Are you in a hurry? What other commitments do you have?"
Serena explained to Anna what else was going on that evening.
"Why didn't you tell me, if I had known, I would have let you go, here I'm enough."
"I'm here now, there's no point in talking about it now."
"What do you mean there's no point? Why don't you change your dress now and come back? Otherwise, it will affect your relationship."
"It's okay, I told him I would go as soon as I could, the party will only start at eight o'clock, I will stay here with you and have dinner until seven, I have plenty of time to come back."
After hearing those words, Anna was relieved. "Well, let's order in the meantime, the vice president said he would be here in ten minutes, he said we can order in the meantime."
"Okay." Serena nodded and ordered two dishes with Anna. In fact, she had no worries at all. Initially, she was a little worried, but now she was focused on Cristian, and she did not care much about this matter.
What Cristian said before he left really affected her.
Ten minutes later, Leonardo finally arrived. He seemed to have dressed especially for the date. He wore a white suit and his tie was particularly neat and clean. As soon as he entered the restaurant, he attracted the attention of many women.
Serena and Anna heard the women at the next table.
"Who is that man? He is so handsome."
"Don't look at him, a man like that is surely already engaged. He will never be ours."
"Hey, which one will be his girlfriend?"
"I think it's the younger, beautiful one."
"No, it must be the one in blue. They have the same temperament. That makes sense doesn't it?"
Serena: "..."
She hated such gossipy people, she would very much like to answer him that none of them is Leonardo's girlfriend.
Anna whispered in her ear and said, "Can't these people keep their voices down when they talk about others? We can hear everything."
If they had heard everything, Leonardo must have heard everything, too.
Leonardo sat down across from them. His gaze passed quickly past Anna and fell on Serena's face, "Sorry, there was a lot of traffic, that's why I'm late."
"No problem." Anna waved her hand with a smile, Serena on the other hand was calm.
The people from the next table started talking again.
"See, she said hello to him, I said she was his girlfriend."
"Are you stupid? He is clearly looking at the girl in the blue dress, and then what does getting so worked up have to do with being engaged. If they were engaged, there would be no need, it would be a more unspoken thing."
Serena acted as if she had not heard. After all, she could not control what others said.
