Joyce was about to meet Karl in the evening for dinner. She wanted to let Karl know that she had seen Charlotte at Skymall in the afternoon and that Charlotte was with her accompanying lieutenant.
Karl happened to be downtown on an errand, and it could be seven or eight in the evening before he could finish his work.
So Joyce went downtown early to wait for him for a while.
She found a cafe with casual meals, ordered a mocha coffee first, and sat down to wait for Karl.
In order not to cause any misunderstanding, she also sent a text message to Juanita, telling her that she had a personal matter to talk to Karl about the case.
Soon after, Juanita sent a witty reply.
"Well, I, his future girlfriend, approve!"
Joyce laughed out loud. Juanita was really a good girl! She was always so easy-going and cheerful. She must be such a good match for Karl, but Karl was so insensitive when it came to such a matter. She was afraid it would take him a long time before he could recognize his own feelings.
She swiped her phone for a while and waited until almost eight o'clock before Karl arrived in a hurry.
Today he was wearing a beige trench coat and looked quite elegant.
Hurrying into the cafe, he pulled out a seat and sat down across from Joyce.
"Sorry to keep you waiting for me so long, something came up today unfortunately. I finished it just now."
"It's okay, you must be hungry. I won't treat you to a big meal today, let's have two set meals." Joyce smiled and summoned the waiter, "You may bring what I just ordered."
