Chapter 31: Date?

She tried to ignore them but, Evan pulled her towards them.

And now, sitting in the circular four-seater table with her friends and Evan, Daniella felt as if she had been played.

She knows how her friend would torture her in front of Evan, and she has no clue why they are doing this.

"Mr. Su, are you not dating anyone," Robert asked out of the blue.

Daniella looked at Evan, wanting to know the answer as well.

"I would call this a date" Evan casually reply.

"Date with this woman?" Robert faked a puzzle expression while his finger was pointing at her.

Daniella glared at Robert, she wanted to look into their eyes, see what they were planning but Scott and Robert had been avoiding her eyes.

"Yes," Evan replied.

Daniella\'s wide eyes glaring at Robert turned to her side where Evan was sitting.

When their eyes met, the smile Evan has on his lips faded.

"What about you? Are you dating someone?" Evan asked Robert.

"No, my life has been cursed by a certain witch. Unfortunately, I can only date after she dies," Robert clicked his tongue repeatedly. He was about to drink the water in his glass when he felt a heel stabbing his foot.

His nose wrinkled and immediately withdrew his foot back. He smiled in victory when he realized that Daniella\'s short legs couldn\'t reach him.

He leaned closer at Scott sitting next to him, then he whispered into his ear, "Daniella\'s legs are too short she couldn\'t even kick me."

The two laughed at the same time.

The food came, and seeing the lobster on the platter with shrimps and mussels around has made Robert and Scott snickered.

With their faces, so close together, they conversed.

"Do you think she would enjoy her lobster today?" Robert asked Scott.

"I don\'t think so but look, she\'s holding herself from grabbing it," Scott replied.

"Oh, this is gonna be fun!"

On the other side, Daniella\'s heart throbbed. She could imagine herself on her couch with the lobster on her plate with a drama playing on the television but unfortunately, she\'s in the restaurant, with a man that has been causing her heart pulverized and her friends smiling at her like a psycho.

She sighed and picked up her cutlery. The corner of her eyes caught Evan washing his hand in the bowl full of water and later wiped it with his napkin. The waiter came and took the bowl from his side.

As soon as the waiter is gone, Evan picked up one of the lobsters from the platter and break it in half. He placed it on her table and casually wipe his hands.

"Claire said you always have a problem breaking the lobster. So, eat up."

Daniella tightened her grip at the cutlery on her hand. She felt as if a bomb had just exploded in her mind.

She peeked a glance at Evan, every movement he made was so smooth and full of elegance. Then her sight shifted to her friends who are eating like the people from the cave.

Her face went poker, wondering if they are eating like this to shame her in front of Evan or they were just so hungry that they didn\'t mind their table manner.

She had shared a meal with them a couple of times and she\'s certain that they never eat like this. Scott and Robert are chewing their food so loud that she could almost hear their teeth.

She took in a deep sigh and leaned closer at Evan.

"Mr. Su, do you know the saying, you are what your friends are?" she charmingly blinked as she waited for his reply.

"Yes. I have heard of that," he replied in a whisper.

"Good. That saying doesn\'t apply to me. Ok?"

With a flat face, Evan nodded.

Daniella went back to her food. She constantly heard her friends whispering and later snickered

"Are they a couple?" Evan suddenly whispered into her ears.

Hearing that, she suddenly thought of the man she heard in his office.

After clearing her throat, Daniella leaned closer to Evan.

"Well, I am not sure. You tell me,"

She could see the confusion on Evan\'s face, with the same flat expression, he replied, "why are you asking me? I am not gay," he whispered back.

Daniella was dumbfounded. She suddenly asked herself if she did really hear a man in his office or it was just her imagination.

"Well, I heard a man in your office. Don\'t worry Mr. Su, I have lots of gay friends, some of them prefer men and women. I am not judging you," she innocently blinked her eyes as she stared at his hand lifting in the air to drink his water.

Startled by her words, Evan\'s hand quivered, causing the water to spill on his pants.

"Excuse me," Evan coldly said as he got up. He left without waiting for Daniella\'s reply.

Being alone with her friend, Daniella picked up the fork and the knife on her plate.

"What happened to him?" Robert asked as he chewed on his food.

Daniella shrugged, "I don\'t know. He asked me if you two are a couple,"

Scott, who had just shoved two shrimps in his mouth coughed after hearing it.

He drank the water Robert handed and swallowed hard.

His eyes, swelling with shock, glared at Daniella.

"You said no right?" he spoke with horror.

Daniella shook her head, "no, I asked him if he could tell me. I mean I heard a man in his office. And the voice was just so e.r.o.t.i.c. I didn\'t exactly ask if he\'s gay but, my words were going in that direction" she answered with an innocent voice.

Robert blew a sigh, head shaking as he picked up his spoon and used it to hit Daniella\'s forehead.

"You have a chip in your brain, got a degree and yet you are still stupid. Don\'t you have manners? Don\'t ever ask a man if he\'s gay," he repeatedly hit her forehead with his spoon.

Daniella groaned in pain, she glared at him but Robert wouldn\'t stop.

"What manners? You two are eating like a crocodile here," she barked at him.

Daniella\'s eyes swelled with anger. She got up. With a fork and a knife in her hands, she leaned forward and stabbed on the space next to Robert\'s and Scott\'s hand.

Her nose wrinkled as she deeply whispered, "Get out! and Robert, don\'t forget to pay the bill on your way out," she said in a low and angry voice.

Robert and Scott quickly pulled their hands resting on the table and looked at Daniella with hysteria.

"Why do I have to pay?" Robert complained.

"Well, you can choose Robert. Either pay this bill or your hospital bill. But remember, you don\'t have insurance so that\'s gonna cost you more"

Her voice was deep, scary and cold, and it made Robert realized that he needs to pay for the bill.

"Tsk. Why are you in such a bad mood. It\'s red days, isn\'t?" Robert murmured.

Out of nowhere, Daniella\'s low and emotionless laugh rang into Robert and Scott\'s ears. When they looked at her, they saw her grinning like a demon.

They instantly got up, without saying their goodbyes, Scott and Robert left the restaurant after paying their bill.

Minutes later, Evan came back. His eyebrow creased seeing Daniella alone in the table.

"What happened to your friend?" he asked, sitting down on his chair.

With a radiant smile on her lips, Daniella replied, "they are gonna consummate their relationship," she snickered and graciously sucked on the head of the shrimp.

Realizing that she\'s sucking the head of the shrimp, like an infant in front of Evan, Daniella\'s face went flat.

She lowered the lifeless head of the shrimp on her plate and ran her tongue on her lips.

"I look stupid am I not?" she asked him, embarrassment filtered in her voice.

Evan shook his head, "No, you look cute,"

"That\'s even worse," she murmured.

Her cheeks blushed, she lowered her sight to her plate and used her index finger to play with the claw of the lobster.
