Capítulo 302: Escaping the future

"You know you did not have to go to all this trouble." She pointed to the dinner that he had arranged for them. "I could have prepared a simple dinner back at the apartment for us."

Although she did appreciate the valiant effort, she knew that he also had tons of things to do besides entertaining her. She did not want him to feel obligated to care for all her needs when she was more than capable of doing that for herself.

"I like doing these simple things for you. Besides, it was not much of a trouble. Don't you like my surprise?" Alex asked as he assisted her on the empty chairs by the table. 

A few seconds later, a server appeared from the corner of her eye, carrying a bottle of wine in a chiller bucket. He immediately served them a glass as he took their order.

"I do. You know I always enjoyed your surprises. I only am preventing you from overdoing things." She answered him as soon as they were alone again, not wanting to hurt his feelings.
