Chapter 223 Evangeline was thrilled yet a tad anxious about landing such an awesCEO.

Evangeline could not help but feel a mix of pride and worry. She was proud that she had seen Hank's potential from the start, but worried too. How could a guy with Hank's talent stick around as the CEO of the Foster family's company forever? He was just helping out, and sooner or later, his twould be up.

"I won't hold back, then!" Hank declared with his usual open-hearted charm, completely at ease in front of Evangeline. He never played his cards close to his chest, and he dove right into the menu.

This was Hank's first tin Avalon City, let alone at this hotel's restaurant, so he had no clue which dishes were the hits.

"Hey, it's our first visit. Got any house specials to recommend?" Hank asked the waiter, who practically sparkled at the chance to make a good impression for his monthly review. He launched into a spiel with gusto. "Everyone raves about our Wellington Royale Steak. And just for the holidays, we've got this 'True Love 99' couples' special with the steak. It comes with dessert, a hearty soup, fruit for afters-you nit," the waiter pitched, pointing them to the right page. Hank flipped to the set meal section, and a pair of cheerful candles jumped out at him.

"If I go for this couples' special, do I get to keep the candles?" joked Hank, just trying to keep things light.

The waiter was dead serious. "Our menu's all real-deal photos. What you see is what you get-no surprises," he assured them.

In other words, the candles were part of the deal.

The waiter's eyes danced from Evangeline to Hank as if trying to figure out who was calling the shots.

Chapter 253 +25 BONUS "Sir, are you interested in our special offer? We've got a couple's meal deal that's flying off the shelves, and lucky for you, there's one left." Hank wavered, a bit stuck.

Dining on a candlelit couple's meal with Evangeline was definitely on his wish list, but he was not sure if Evangeline would be on board.

What he did not see coming was that Evangeline did not fuss over the couple' label on the meal. To her, it was just a catchy sales pitch, no big deal. Noticing Hank's interest, she jumped in to decide.

"Looks like we got the last one-what a stroke of luck! We'll take the set meal, please. Hank, anything else catches your eye? Go ahead and order." The service at the grand hotel was outstanding, and the dishes arrived in no time.

Over the glow of candlelight, Hank and Evangeline savored their red wine steak, keeping the conversation alive.

"Hank, Mr. Davis mentioned Uncle Yale dropped by your office today and hung around for quite a bit. What's up with that?" Hank had quickly made a splash at the company, so it made sense that Yale took an interest in him.

However, her uncles usually stayed out of company business unless she asked for help. Why would they seek out Hank? Was it possible that, unbeknownst to her, Hank and Yale had becclose enough to have casual conversations?

Hank's steak-cutting hand froze for a second, and a hint of red colored this cheeks. He looked up, his face swiftly regaining its composure. The content. is on novelenglish.net!

Trying to sound casual, he said, "Oh, it's no big deal. Yale just wanted to alk about something concerning you."
