Max and Chleo were in a restaurant in eerie silence at this moment. Until now, Max couldn't understand why he asked the girl to have lunch together. Not only Max, but Chleo herself also couldn't believe she would just accept the invitation of a strange man she just met last weekend.
Even though this person was Dietrich's friend… a distant cousin, usually Chleo wouldn't carelessly eat out with strangers.
Now the atmosphere between them felt awfully awkward because no one spoke.
Chleo just lowered her head, looking at her hands on her lap. Every now and then, she would glance at other visitors or look out the window. Her gaze darted in all directions except for the young man sitting across from her.
Unconsciously, Chleo's eyes rested on Max's as if there was a magnet pulling her. That snow-white-like guy was also apparently looking at her with a probing gaze.
