His eyes met Daniela’s in a moment of silent tension.
A thick, uncomfortable silence settled over the room.
Kohen gave a light chuckle, assuming Nikolas was just dawdling. “Daniela, we're here to join you for dinner.”
Daniela stayed composed, gesturing casually toward the empty seats. “Please.”
The waiter arrived promptly, placing tableware before them.
Nikolas, slumped inside the restroom, could only hear Daniela’s serene voice filtering in. “Eat whatever you like.”
Hesitant, Kohen picked up his fork, eyeing the dishes warily. “Where’s my brother?” he asked with a polite smile.
Daniela answered smoothly, “He stepped out to take a call.”
Kohen gave a slow nod, half-convinced. Then Daniela added casually, “Didn’t you say you were here to eat?

variety and ordered a few fresh dishes for himself.
From inside, Nikolas heard Kohen placing the order and felt a small wave of relief.

He had nothing left to give.
“Why's my brother taking so long?” Kohen muttered between bites, subtly watching the others’ faces.
No one looked like they'd been hit with a heavy dose of laxative.
Daniela offered a faint smile. “Maybe something cup.”
Charles turned to Carol. “You've got great taste, Carol. The lobster is seriously amazing!”
But the moment he said it, both he and Kohen froze, their expressions twisting in sudden alarm.
