"Drinking on an empty stomach is bad for you."
Dylan Heston suddenly grabbed her hand under the table. "I'll deal with you when we get back!"
'Deal with me?'
Nancy Hughes blinked in surprise, wondering if he'd had too much to drink. 'I haven't done anything wrong, so why would he want to deal with me?'
The two people across from him were whispering to each other. Zane Lennox suddenly coughed twice to interrupt them.
He had asked Dylan Heston out today to talk business, not to watch them be all lovey-dovey.
"Mr. Lennox, it's a rare pleasure for us all to gather as friends today. Thank you for treating us," Dylan Heston said, pouring himself a full glass and raising it to the man across from him.
With that one sentence, he completely shut Zane Lennox down. Even if Zane wanted to talk business now, he couldn't bring it up.
Zane Lennox forced a smile and said through gritted teeth, "But of course."
