Chapter 1326 A Meal Together
Luke saw his father’s 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 parents’ relationship to get better during his absence.
“Daddy, Mommy’s not back yet. Tell her I’m off to Imperial Garden when she’s back from work,” said Luke as he grabbed onto Davin’s hand and left Levant Winery.
Levant stood frozen as he listened to Luke’s words.
He’s 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, “Leave all you want! Do you think I’m scared about your tiny little threat?”
I’ve been too good to him, and now he’s 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 Levant’s door.
“Who is it?” Levant asked begrudgingly.
“It’s me,” she answered.
Levant got up and opened the door when he heard Tiffany’s voice.
“Where’s Luke? Is he in your room?”
“No.”
“No? I’ve searched everywhere, but he’s nowhere to be seen. Where could he be?” Tiffany asked nervously.
“Calm down. He’s gone to Imperial Garden. He said he wanted to stay there for a few days to play with Zayden and Joy.”
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, “My kid’s a little naughty. I’m sorry for the trouble.”
“The three of them love playing together, and Luke’s a very good boy. It’s no trouble at all. Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of him.”
“All right. Thank you.”
Tiffany let out a sigh of relief as she ended the call, whereas Levant sighed heavily.
“What’s up?”
“You didn’t ask when he’s coming back?”
“He’s just gone. I bet he’s going to stay for a couple of days, at least. I’ll bring him back in a few days.”
Levant snorted and said, “I hope he’ll come back with you then.”
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.
“He’ll be back when he’s had enough. I’m off to check on some things then,” said Tiffany. She then turned and headed toward her room.
Suddenly, Levant called out to her, “Tiffany, do you want to grab some food together?”
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, “It’s fine if you don’t want to.”
“Sure!” 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 Tiffany’s smile. He was unsure what it was, and before he could figure it out, it had already disappeared.
Perhaps it’s just in my head.
“What do you want to eat?” he asked.
“Barbecue!”
“Luke loves barbecue. Now that he’s not here, we can get something else.”
“I really want to eat barbecue.”
“All right then. I’ll get the waiter to prepare it.”
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.
