Chapter 10 - Miss Elena is at restaurant as well?

The car stopped in front of a very fancy restaurant. The driver stepped down and opened up the door for Hannah while Morgan helped him out of the car.

Morgan wasn't an ordinary guest and as soon as he got closer to the door, the hostesses welcomed him in with a VIP treatment.

" Welcome Mr Morgan. Please this way " she directed and another person showed them to the VIP arena.

Entering inside, the restaurant had a great décor and ambiance.

The bright golden light in a diamond shape shined at every part of the room, making it look even more classy, disco White and blue balls were carefully arranged on the tiled floor to give a better combination.

The restaurant had a relaxed and casual vibe. The blinking lights were a dazzling beauty and one could hear the DJ playing soft jazz, making the atmosphere of the restaurant unbeatable.

At every corner of the room there are big screened televisions placed for the guest to entertain themselves.

The paintings hanging at some other part of the restaurant were a wonder to watch and very expensive.

Couples murmured words to themselves and the door constantly swung open as more people came in.

" Here is your table " the hostess smirked and gently walked away.

" Thank you " Hannah gulped down.

Morgan pulled the chair out while Hannah sat and adjusted herself properly.

Morgan pushed it slightly inside before taking his own seat.

He loosened his tie and smiled slightly at Hannah, " so tell, how was the trip back here? " He asked eagerly to hear what she had to say.

Morgan and Hannah talked for a while before the waiter appeared with a menu on her hands. Ready to take their order.

Themed on the restaurant genre menu were pasta, ribs, sushi, Chinese food, steak, sea food, fried rice and many others. Hannah glared at the main, she was obviously having a hard time selecting a meal for both of them.

" Morgan, what do you think? " She asked.

Shaking his head, he says " please make your choice ".

Hannah huffs and finally places an order. The waitress leaves Immediately with a tiny book she had used to jot down all that Hannah had requested.

Hannah spoke excitedly, " I love the atmosphere here, it's pretty cool and relaxing " she complimented.

Morgan shrugged, " well of course, it has to be worth the fee ".

" You have a nice taste Mr bachelor. "She complimented again.

" Thank you miss,'' he smirked at her.

Hannah twisted her lips and touched Morgan gently with her heels under the table. He instantly reacted to that and shifted away.

Hannah flicked, placed her hands on the table, " Tell me something, Why are you still single? Are you looking for a woman or you have one already. Why are you going to introduce her to the family? ".

She asked many questions at the same time. Gladly, the waitress had emerged to their table with a filled tray.

The lady placed empty glasses on the bar napkins. Pouring a red wine on each of the glasses and dropping it down. She served a meal of fried rice, steak and grilled chicken. In another she served a vegetable salad combination.

Hannah waited until the waiter left before she fixed her gaze back on Morgan.

He tried to ignore it but she made sure to make him uncomfortable until he answered her questions.

" Fine, I'm single with absolutely no plans of marriage " he smiled while eating his meal.

" Huh, you are probably joking " she creased her brows.

" Nope, I am not. It's the honest truth."

Hannah was definitely left shocked, he didn't have a woman in his life. That was much better than she planned to hear. She scrutinized the handsome gentleman. Her heart was beating steadily and she tried to keep the visible blush down.

Morgan noticed a sudden calmness which wasn't something normal especially with Hannah around.

He looked up and met her sky blue eyes staring at him. He wondered why she had her eyes feasting on him instead of the meal.

He asked, " is there any problem? "

Hannah quickly composed herself, gaining possession and then smiling at him. " No, why did you ask? ".

" It's fine, let it slide. Tell me, how is madame Cole and your father? " He asked, delighted.

" My mum is pretty fine, staying with the Shipmans at the outskirts of the city. Dad had retired and Jacob had refused him doing any form of work. "

Morgan muttered, " uhhhhm, pretty impressive. What about you? What are you doing now? " He asked.

Hannah straightens, taking the excessive strand of hair back in a curve. " I recently finished school, applied for a job in the US and am still waiting for a reply." She huffed.

" Nice, why don't you come to the office tomorrow, I think I might know the perfect job for you to do " he smirked.

" Tell me you are not joking " she clinged on to her plate.

" I'm not, I can do anything to make you happy " he winked and she began to blush.

They soon finished up the meal. Morgan wiped his mouth and they both stood up to pay and leave the restaurant.

" Wait here, I Will go and pay " he informs Hannah before leaving.

There was no need to stand at the counter or queue, a special treatment he always got. After paying, he returned to leave with Hannah but spotted her yelling on top of her voice with some other woman.

" How dare you to step on my shoes?! " Hannah screamed.

" Hey, watch it, I already apologized and if you won't take that then kiss my ass " the other lady voiced out.

Jeez, oh my goodness. Morgan went down the scene to stop Hannah from hitting the other lady. He knew that would be her next move. As though predicting right, Morgan arrived just in time to stop her from pushing the other lady down.

" Morgan, " she murmurs.

" What the hell is wrong with you Hannah? Are you really going to hit her? " He dropped his hand and turned to the woman.

Morgan's check dropped as though he had seen a ghost, amusement danced in his eyes and he seemed very surprised.

The familiar scent of strawberry lipstick filled his nose and he grinned.

" Miss Elena. " He let the words slip out of his mouth.
