Chapter 46: Crisis Averted

The chef had only reached them, but he was already talking.

“Don’t leave!” His breathing was quickened, and even his face showed signs of his rush.

“Elizabeth told me you headed to the airport.”

And here is where the bartender has chosen a perfect moment to laugh. Can someone really blame her?

Moreover, he clearly misunderstood Elizabeth’s words and, for some reason, thought that the young woman would leave without saying goodbye or at least putting in two weeks' notice.

It sounds like she would actually leave him, at least without figuring out their situation. However, this was a talk both of them were not ready for.
