Chapter 571
She suddenly woke from her dreams, her eyes wide.
When their eyes met, Conrad said with a smile, “Are you awake?”
Fla gulped. From his eyes, she felt like he was pampering her.
Did he want to pamper her?
“If you don’t wake up, I don’t know what else I’m going to do,” Conrad said as he lightly pinched Fia’s cheek. Her
skin was smooth and bouncy. It was like a de-shelled egg.
Fia turned around and looked out the window. “Where is this?”
She had never left Gryphon and she was very familiar with Gryphon.
This place was clearly not Gryphon.
“Let’s eat first.”
Conrad got out of the car and walked around to the passenger’s seat. He opened the door and unbuckled her seat
belt.
Fia looked around like a curious little baby. She happily held Conrad’s arm and patted him as she cried, “I can smell
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe ocean!”
Conrad raised his eyebrow. Oceania was close to the sea. The closer they were to the sea, the easier it was for
them to smell the scent of the sea.
He even chose a place close to the ocean.
Once they had their meal, they could then walk over.
When they entered the restaurant, he saw that there were plenty of people eating in the dining hall. Conrad
stopped holding Fia’s hand and instead held her in his arm by the waist.
“Sir, madam. How many will it be today?” A waitress wearing a handsome uniform walked over with a professional
smile on her face.
“Is there a private room?” Conrad looked at the people in the dining hall.
The waitress had just wanted to say yes when Fia said, “There’s no need. The dining hall will be fine.”
She looked at a seat next to the French windows and shook Conrad as she held him by his waist
too.
“The dining hall has a better view.”
“Sure. As you like.”
The waitress quickly walked over to the seats by the window and pulled the chairs, doing her best to serve them.
Once the two of them had been seated, the waitress stood about a meter away and poured both
of them each a glass of water from a pitcher.
The waitress smiled and then put the pitcher back before giving Fla and Conrad a menu.
“You two must be here in Oceania on holiday?”
“This is Oceania?” Fia looked at Conrad opposite of her with a smile and then said to the waitress In a friendly
manner. “This is our first time here, so I don’t know what to eat here. Can you recommend your best dishes?”
“Of course,” the waitress said as she recommended the three dishes in the restaurants that had
the best reviews.
“Since there’s only the two of you here today, you can try these three first. You can try something. different next
time you come to Oceania again so that you’ll have tasted all the popular dishes in our fair city.”
The smile on Fia’s face became even brighter. “Thank you. That will be all.”
“Alright, what would you like to drink?”
Conrad said, “Orange juice.”
Fia looked at him and said, “Not wine?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was an alcoholic. A drunkard that drank until his stomach bled.
“No more.” Conrad looked at Fia deeply.
He was planning not to touch any alcoholic drinks lately.
After the waitress left, Fia got closer to the table and waved at Conrad.
Conrad looked around before bending over too.
Fia then whispered, “Don’t you feel the people here in Oceania are so cultured?”
“How so?”
“They don’t just simply recommend dishes and wines?”
Conrad nodded and said, “True.”
Fia then whispered again, “If I were to eat with you in Gryphon, the waitress would have
recommended us a bunch of dishes.”
Conrad smiled faintly and nodded in agreement.
“Aren’t you angry that I’m saying our own city is not doing well?”
“Why should I be?’
Fia stared at Conrad and said, “A lot of people are protective of their own cities. They don’t like to hear anyone
saying bad things about them.
