[IRIS'S POV]
The Neon’s Foods was the restaurant he chose? My eyes scanned the outside of the building for a few moments, and then I looked up to observe the green rooftop. It still was bursting with flowered trees. Subconsciously, my lips formed into a soft smile. President Gray passed me to go inside, and I diverted my attention to his retreating back. I noticed that the owner of the restaurant had changed since I was last here. The middle-aged man came out to meet us at the door, and he gave a deep bow as we entered.
The whole restaurant was empty, and as we walked to our table, I kept looking to see if there were any other customers.
“Doesn't anyone come here?” I asked with genuine curiosity.
“Normally, this place is packed. But, I booked the entire restaurant for our lunch.”
“Holy shit! So this is how the other half lives…” I murmured.
Rolling my eyes, I sank down into my chair with a thud. President Gray frowned at my improper behavior. However, I was too mentally exhausted to give a flying fuck. Being back in this place didn’t help improve my mood either.
