Zoe Rhodes didn't notice Linda Sullivan's expression. She was completely focused, staring at Nathan Bennett's every move outside the window.
Her mind was racing, but the moment Nathan Bennett turned his head and their eyes met, it crashed on the spot.
Their last meeting at The Bennett Group had been rushed. This time, to make a good impression on her future sister-in-law, Zoe Rhodes had specifically chosen the most expensive restaurant with the best atmosphere.
The window seats at this scenic restaurant were highly sought after; you usually had to book them two weeks in advance to have a chance.
In the end, Zoe Rhodes had paid three times the price to book this spot.
The joy she felt then was matched only by the regret she felt now.
The restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows were spotless and clear. Combined with the bright, ambient lighting, it was easy for the two of them to see each other's expressions through the glass.
