Mrs. Craig would not have made such a suggestion if the plate had not just been served, untouched.

Raegan looked and to her surprise, it was Mitchel and Katie.

She was amazed that he had dinner with Katie.

When their eyes met, Katie looked back at him. I didn't need to say anything. His presence alongside Mitchel seemed like a declaration of triumph.

Raegan felt her heart sink little by little. Just last night encouragement was whispered to continue fighting. But now, not even a day later, hope was slipping away.

Raegan stopped Mrs. Craig with a shake of her head. «Let's not bother them. "We can come back another time."

Mrs. Craig realized that it was a little awkward to ask others to share their food, so she abandoned the idea.

Instead, they ordered other dishes and started chatting.

Suddenly, a waitress arrived at Raegan's table with a steaming pot of seafood stew and smiled. «Ladies, this is from the lady over there. “Enjoy it, please.” "It's been rationed before it's served, so it's perfectly hygienic."

Mrs. Craig, bewildered, said, “Would you like to thank the lady for us?”

The waitress nodded and walked away.

Unable to see Katie's face, Mrs. Craig turned around and smiled in gratitude.

"People are nice these days, but we shouldn't accept other people's food so freely," Mrs. Craig said, pushing away the stew without wanting to seem dismissive.

Raegan tasted the stew and put a spoonful in her mouth. The flavors burst, the usual sign of exquisite cooking, but all Raegan noticed was a bitter taste. It didn't taste good, not good at all.

Raegan looked up to see Katie's beaming face, which only added to her irritation.

The Dixon group didn't need to say much, right? "His actions convey his position loud and clear."

Confused, Raegan asked, "What does that mean?"

Craig, who was eating lettuce, replied nonchalantly, “I've done some research. It turns out that any company related to the Dixon Group has problems. "Our private investigations reveal that it is very similar to the problems that 'Crescent' had in the beginning."

Raegan leaned toward her and asked quietly, "Could you explain yourself better?"

Ms. Craig replied: “Actually, the postponement of delivery of Crescent products was not a big deal for companies like us, because our intention was not to make things difficult for Crescent in the first place. We were looking for solutions. Now, it appears that the companies that were hardest on Crescent in the beginning are the ones that are stuck. "They are completely immobilized and can't do anything."

In a low voice, Mrs. Craig confided: “The Dixon Group is said to be making amends to Crescent. "That's why you're seeing this change."

Raegan felt a jumble of thoughts and stood up abruptly. “Excuse me, I have to make a call.”

"Of course," Mrs. Craig acknowledged.

Raegan found a secluded spot upstairs to mark Matteo.
