Maybe Cyril's eyes landed on his for too long, the man sensed his gaze and turned to look at him.
Cyril did not shy away from being caught and gave a polite nod as a greeting.
He did not know how that man would react. After all, he looked like he wanted to be left alone by everyone and didn't want to be disturbed.
The man saw Cyril's nod and smiled politely before replying with a nod of his own.
After their brief greeting, they turned away from each other.
In a few minutes, Cyril was done eating and he went back to start the next race.
While he was walking towards the stage, he met many of his customers who were greeting him. Some of them even had a few words with him.
Most of them had a couple of requests regarding the bettings. Cyril accepted a few and politely rejected a few.
Once he reached the stage, he announced the break was over and the bettings would start in a minute.
