Chapter 1326 A Meal Together
Luke saw his fatherâs sudden change of expression and turned to Davin. He then kept quiet as he noticed the look Davin was giving him. After all, there was nothing else he would wish for other than his parentsâ relationship to get better during his absence.
âDaddy, Mommyâs not back yet. Tell her Iâm off to Imperial Garden when sheâs back from work,â said Luke as he grabbed onto Davinâs hand and left Levant Winery.
Levant stood frozen as he listened to Lukeâs words.
Heâs threatening me by leaving home at such a young age? Preposterous!
The more Levant thought about it, the more furious he got. Thus, he went over to the door and shouted at Luke and Davin, âLeave all you want! Do you think Iâm scared about your tiny little threat?â
Iâve been too good to him, and now heâs spoiled!
When Tiffany came back from the office, she made sure she washed her hands and changed her outfit before she went looking for her son. However, she could not find him anywhere.
After much hesitation, she knocked on Levantâs door.
âWho is it?â Levant asked begrudgingly.
âItâs me,â she answered.
Levant got up and opened the door when he heard Tiffanyâs voice.
âWhereâs Luke? Is he in your room?â
âNo.â
âNo? Iâve searched everywhere, but heâs nowhere to be seen. Where could he be?â Tiffany asked nervously.
âCalm down. Heâs gone to Imperial Garden. He said he wanted to stay there for a few days to play with Zayden and Joy.â
Tiffany was still a little worried after hearing that, so she quickly made a call to Nicole. When she found out that Luke was having tons of fun at Imperial Garden, she said, âMy kidâs a little naughty. Iâm sorry for the trouble.â
âThe three of them love playing together, and Lukeâs a very good boy. Itâs no trouble at all. Donât worry. Iâll take good care of him.â
âAll right. Thank you.â
Tiffany let out a sigh of relief as she ended the call, whereas Levant sighed heavily.
âWhatâs up?â
âYou didnât ask when heâs coming back?â
âHeâs just gone. I bet heâs going to stay for a couple of days, at least. Iâll bring him back in a few days.â
Levant snorted and said, âI hope heâll come back with you then.â
Tiffany was a little puzzled by his words. She assumed Levant was just concerned that Luke would refuse to come home because he was having so much fun. Unbeknownst to her, her precious son had joined forces with Davin and threatened Levant before he left in order to pull her and Levant closer to each other.
âHeâll be back when heâs had enough. Iâm off to check on some things then,â said Tiffany. She then turned and headed toward her room.
Suddenly, Levant called out to her, âTiffany, do you want to grab some food together?â
Surprised by his suggestion, Tiffany stopped in her tracks. Why is he asking me out all of a sudden?
Seeing how Tiffany did not reply to him after a while, he added, âItâs fine if you donât want to.â
âSure!â Tiffany turned around suddenly and replied.
Their gazes met each other at that instance, and they both smiled.
A strange feeling built up inside of Levant as he stared at Tiffanyâs smile. He was unsure what it was, and before he could figure it out, it had already disappeared.
Perhaps itâs just in my head.
âWhat do you want to eat?â he asked.
âBarbecue!â
âLuke loves barbecue. Now that heâs not here, we can get something else.â
âI really want to eat barbecue.â
âAll right then. Iâll get the waiter to prepare it.â
Tiffany nodded at his words. Even though her smile was faint, she was over the moon on the inside.
Soon, the waiter got everything prepared. The two then walked into a luxurious private room and sat down across from each other.
Levant placed the meat onto the grill and poured two glasses of red wine. He then picked up one of the glasses and put it down in front of Tiffany.
