She knew that he wasn't ok.
She knew that the whole conversation had taken a toll on him.
She wanted to immediately run after him, but as their food had arrived, she couldn't do so. She couldn't do anything reckless that could risk his exposure.
The only thing that she could do, was to text him back.
"Please do not think about all this. We are good now. Please, Raymond." - Akira
"I am happy with you right now. Given our places were switched, maybe I would have done the same" - Akira
"Katherine doesn't know how evil Vikram is and that's why she is taking his side because he has shown his fake profile to everyone. Don't be offended with her words" - Akira
But he didn't reply.
She had no other option other than to wait.

It was 5:30 pm and he still hadn't picked up her call.
Not even once.
