The patrons snickered in secret as they watched the Shentons making a scene.
âThat person definitely deserved the slaps.â
âYouâre absolutely right!â
Freya felt the urge to step in, but Caroline held her back. âLetâs wait for the waiter.â
Freya could only nod in agreement.

Meanwhile, outside the restaurant.
Alex eased his Ferrari to a stop at the red light. Out of boredom, he gazed out of the window, and
his attention was drawn to the restaurant across the street. Suddenly, his eyes widened in
disbelief.
Acting swiftly, Alex rolled down the window and fixed his gaze on a woman in a white dress
striking someone.
âIsnât that Evanâs mother?â he exclaimed
Without hesitation, Alex grabbed his phone and dialed Evanâs number.
When Evan answered, Alex sounded anxious. âEvan, I just saw your mother at Fidelio Restaurant.
You need to come here quickly!â
âFidelio Restaurant? Why would my mother be there? Evan wondered.
Frowning. Evan responded, âIâm on my way. Keep an eye on her.â
After hanging up, Alex sped off to the parking lot.
Soon, the restaurant staff intervened.
Caroline gave Freya a nod, and she approached Jamie to stop her. âWhy donât we get Lia some ice
cream to comfort her?
Jamie loosened her grip on Brandon. âSure, letâs do that.â
Freya and Jamie exited through the back door.
As the onlookers dispersed, the waiter resumed serving the food.
Brandonâs face was swollen, and he glared at Caroline with fury. That bitch prevented Dr. Bailey

After the steak dishes were served, Jade found herself bewildered once more. Differentâsized
knives and forks were laid out beside her. Which ones am I supposed to use?â
Jade nudged Brandon âWhich utensils should I use, huh?â
Tyler glanced up and suggested, âSteak is meant to be eaten in small bites, right? The smaller
knife and fork would be best.â
Jade glared at Tyler. âYou seem to know it all
Following Tylerâs advice, Jade picked up the recommended knife and fork. Struggling to adapt, she
ended up biting into the steak right off the fork.
Caroline observed her son with mixed emotions. She reluctantly admitted that her son had a
knack for manipulation, making her wonder who he took after.
Fifteen minutes later, Evan arrived and joined Alex as they entered the restaurant. They scanned.
the surroundings but couldnât spot Jamie.
Evan gave Alex a stern look. âPerhaps you need an eye check.â
Alex remained defiant. âDo you think Iâd joke about something like this with your mother? Check
the surveillance footage if you doubt me.â
Evan smirked. âAxel wanted me to bring him here. The restaurant values privacy, so there are no
cameras inside.â
âNo arguing with that logic! But my eyes canât have deceived me this much! Alex complained
inwardly.
Evan was about to leave when he noticed Caroline. She and her children were sitting with
unfamiliar faces. He wondered who these people were
He halted and beckoned the restaurant manager. âArrange a table near them.
The manager complied, asking, âHow many kids are with you, sir?â
Evan glanced at Alex. âJust him. Please provide a childrenâs meal.â
They were then seated at a table close to Carolineâs.
Caroline looked up instinctively, her surprise evident upon spotting Evan
Tyler and Liora were also taken aback. What is scumbag Daddy doing here?â
The Shentons turned their attention to Evan and Alex, taken aback by these two handsome men
However, when Jade noticed the obsidian stud in Alexâs left earlobe, she pursed her lips
disdainfully. A man with an ear stud? Why does he look like a sissy?â
