The restaurant was as Liz expected. A high-end one which requires a formal attire.
The breathtaking view of the lake Union is something Liz didn't expect. She was impressed that Max got them a table with the best view. And again… the staff was very friendly toward Max.
"You come here often."
Max noticed that Liz didn't ask a question, she made a statement. He smiled in response. Of course, Liz is very observant. She probably picked up hints and came to a conclusion. Smart.
His eyes shifted slightly while worm of doubt started eating him. Is it a mistake to bring her here? This is one of the most romantic restaurants in Seattle and the price of one meal is hundreds of dollars. This is where he brings ladies to impress them and he wants to impress Liz. He hopes that Liz does not think that she is like any other girl he brought here… but then… how can he show her that she is special?
