章 112: Chapter 112: Date I

(Michelle POV)

"Welcome to Jade Palace Restaurant. Do you have a reservation?" The receptionist asked.

I shook my head. Huh? This was just a restaurant in a mall. "Do you require one?" I responded.

"Sorry ma'am, as of the moment, the restaurant has already been fully booked and…"

I furrowed my brows. What the hell? You want to ruin my date? Anthony recommended this restaurant last night! I was about to insist when suddenly my cellphone started ringing. 

"Excuse me for a moment." I said as I pulled out my phone. Anthony's name flashed on my screen. I wanted to cry. Why did I not come to the restaurant first to ensure I get a table? Anyhow, I pressed the answer button.

"Hello?" I greeted.

"Hi Michelle, are you already at Jade palace?"

Well… "Uh yes… but it's already fully booked…" I said honestly, my voice a bit sad. Not hearing Anthony respond, I said his name to call his attention, "Anthony?"
