Ike was a local, and thus, he knew everything there was around these parts like the back of his hand. Having said
that, Nicole a realization dawned on Nicole. The look in Harvey's eyes became sullen.
However, this was not the first time that Harvey had done this, and it was not something for her to be concerned
about.Concurrently, he also looked indifferent, and proceeded to say, "Mr.Ike you flatter me."
Ike's expression darkened at an instant, and he thought, 'Who told him that it was a compliment?' Harvey, who was
disinterested in trading blows with Ike, took the menu from the waiter and handed it to Nicole.
"Their dishes here are very unique. You can order whichever ones you like."
Nicole glanced at the menu, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "Yes they are, and the price isn't that exuberant
either."
'Can't this guy just keep a low profile when he travels abroad? This is just over the top"
"Oh yes, I was looking at this too," Harvey said, pretending to not understand.
Nicole had little choice but to order their food.

"Dinner tonight is on Mr. Ellison, so I won't hold back."
Harvey's expression remained unchanged as he replied, "Yes."
Ike's eyes immediately darkened.
He really hated how calm and composed Harvey was, and he wanted to see how long he could keep up the
charade.
As Ike spoke, he got more serious, and after ordering a few expensive dishes, he asked Nicole in a serious tone of
voice, "Do you want to go to the laboratory with me after dinner? My subordinates haven't eaten yet.I think I'll
order a few more to go."
Meanwhile, Nicole had never seen Ike behaving in such a petty way, as he would usually to be calm and mature.
'Why is he acting as though he has a beef with Harvey, today?"
Just as Nicole was about to dissuade Ike from going through with what he had in mind, Harvey stepped in, and as he
spoke, he began to sound as if he was a significant other to Nicole.
"You can buy everyone a round of dinner. Just take it as a treat from Nicole."
Tke felt disheartened at once.
'This guy just doesn't know when to quit. Just because Jared isn't here, he thinks he can just step in and act as if he
is her lover?"
But before Ike could muster a retort, a cold voice came sounding out of nowhere.
"I don't need you to concern yourself with my girlfriend and what she does, Mister Ellison."
This familiar voice caught everyone by surprise, and they sat with wide eyes like a bunch deer in headlights.

"Mr.Johnston?"
He had not anticipated this, but as soon as he thought of Jared Johnston, the man appeared right before his eyes.
'Speak of the devil himself! Upon confirming that it was really Jared, Harvey's face soured, and by now Jared had
already walked up to Harvey with a sneer on his Face.
"Well, you don't seem too happy to see me, Mr. Ellison."
Harvey's face then shifted as a cocktail of emotions wracked him from within.
'This fella surely knows what he's talking about!' In spite of this, he was still able to offer Jared a reluctant smile in
response.
"Well, I was just surprised that you are here, Mr.Johnston, and I happened to be treating my guests to dinner. Why
don't you join us?"
whenever Nicole and I are alone, Jared would always appear sooner or later.
I thought I would have more time to spend with her, now that I am in another country with her.
I didn't expect that Jared Johnston would be here too"
Jared curled his lips into a smile, "Wherever Nicole is, I'll be there like a bolt out of the blue.Am I right?"
