With Nathan

Nathan was quite suspicious seeing Alice's watery eyes and slightly red nose. Like she had just been crying.

"Ah ... it's nothing, Sir," Alice replied.

"Are you crying?" Nathan asked, continuing to observe Alice's face.

"No, Sir. A lash got into my eye earlier, so I rubbed it," Alice said, giving an explanation that might help her avoid Nathan's suspicion.

"Alright." Nathan couldn't bombard Alice with questions anymore. It's not nice to force someone to be honest while you can't tell the truth yourself. "You must be hungry, right?" "Let's go eat first."

Nathan changed the subject.

"Alright, Sir."

They entered a restaurant. Only Alice and Nathan were in the room. Maybe the restaurant is too expensive because the prices of the food on the menu list are very high. Not everyone can eat at a place like this.

"What do you want to eat, Al?" Nathan offered while flipping through the menu.
