Declan wanted to treat Aurora, but circumstances did not allow him to. No, it was Stephen who did not allow him to. That guy was so rich that he also booked the hotel catering, giving every guest that joined the bidding conference free meals!
Left with no choice, Declan could only treat Aurora to a meal next time and let Stephen take care of their bills.
The two casually ordered some food from the menu in the restaurant. Aurora only ordered a bowl of seafood udon and ate small mouthfuls of the noodle soup. As for Declan, he ordered five plates of steaks, two servings of spaghetti, half of a roast chicken, and started to wolf them down.
The two of them sat at the same table, displaying two extremes. Aurora was elegant and dainty, while Declan was stuffing food into his face.
