It’s just that, even though he knew, he had never shown it before.

He was too proud to show it because he didn’t care.

Xavier glanced at Simon. Simon understood, stood up with his teacup, and said:

“We have a meeting this afternoon, so let’s not drink. We’ll be toasting with tea instead of alcohol.”

Then he exchanged a few pleasantries with Aveline, Jasmine, and Julian.

Aveline was the lead architect, so she returned a few polite remarks.

Xavier extended his cup to clink with Aveline’s, but she just took a sip of her tea with a detached look, pretending not to see.

Xavier smiled, not looking embarrassed at all. He didn’t pull his cup back and said:

“Please put your best effort into this project, Lead Architect.”

With the whole table watching, Aveline had no choice but to turn to him and clink her cup against his. “You’re too kind, Mr. Beltran. Our studio will certainly do its best.”

Then she lowered her eyes and took a small sip of tea.

But Xavier didn’t look away. He kept his eyes on her as he brought the cup to his thin lips and took a drink.

Then he sat down, and only then did everyone else sit.

Simon invited everyone to start eating, so they all picked up their forks and began with the dishes closest to them.

Aveline was eating a piece of tofu when she heard Xavier’s low voice beside her,

“Lead Architect, please.”

Aveline looked up to see that Xavier had already turned her favorite dishes to face her.

In front of so many people, she couldn’t show her displeasure. She had to accept his gesture,

picking up her fork to put some food on her plate.

She even had to say, “Thank you, Mr. Beltran.”

As the lead architect, she couldn’t let the engineering team think she was arrogant and difficult to work with.

After she took some food, Xavier also took some from the same dishes and said, “I specially asked the chef to make these. Lead Architect, see what you think.”

Aveline hadn’t eaten yet, but she replied, “The chefs at the Beltran Hotel are all specially hired Michelin three-star and four-star chefs. Of course the food is good.”

Xavier smiled at her. “Lead Architect, and you, Jasmine, and Julian, have been staying at our Beltran Hotel for a while now. I trust you’re satisfied with our service and food?”

Aveline didn’t want to talk to him anymore. She felt that if she replied again, he would never stop.

So she glanced at Jasmine and Julian, hoping they would say something.

Julian understood her look for help and immediately said, “The service is great, and the food is

delicious.”

Jasmine smiled and said, “You’re too kind, Mr. Beltran. The Beltran Hotel is a luxury hotel. If we weren’t satisfied here, where else could we stay on Mount Ardwood?”

Xavier gave faint smile and said nothing more. He finally stopped talking and lowered his eyes

to eat.

After that, Simon and Ryan took over to liven up the atmosphere.

Whenever Aveline’s plate was nearly empty, Xavier would turn the lazy Susan, bringing her favorite dishes in front of her.

Aveline kept a neutral expression and didn’t stand on ceremony with him, helping herself to the food.

If he wanted to be a waiter, then she’d let him be one.

Mason observed all this, thinking to himself, Is Mr. Beltran always this considerate to Aveline?
