After work, Annette arrived at the restaurant that Austin mentioned.
Austin was already waiting at the entrance.
"Why are you so early?" Annette asked with a smile.
"To have dinner with you, I spared some time in advance. Let's go. I have booked a table."
They entered the restaurant and then sat by the window.
Austin asked, "Where have you been working recently? The day before yesterday, I went to the coffee shop you worked at. The boss said that you no longer worked there."
Annette was stunned for a second. She replied, "I'm working at my friend's company. But, I can't tell you more about it."
"Oh, yeah? Don't tell me you went to the bar again." Austin asked.
Annette shook her head. "No. I am going to teach at the university soon. I will not go there again. I don't want to get into trouble again."
Austin smiled and took out a set of keys and placed them in front of her.
Annette frowned and asked, "What's this?"
