"Look at how thin you are right now. It's my treat tonight, and you can just buy me dinner tomorrow," he said guiltily.

"Alright!" Avery sat down.

Jed immediately picked up the jug to pour Avery a glass of juice.

The bodyguard opened a can of beer, and Jed, on the other hand, avoided both the beer and the juice, picking up a box of coconut milk instead.

Avery was starving and dug in. "Let's eat. I want to walk around the area later after dinner."

"You've been walking the entire afternoon, are you not tired?" the bodyguard teased.

"I'm fine. If you are tired, I can go by myself—"

"Have you forgotten about the kidnapping?" The bodyguard was impressed by her courage and said, "Just eat first! We'll see later."

"Okay." Avery took a bite of her food.

Just then, Jed raised his glass and said, "A toast! Hopefully, everything will proceed smoothly from now on!"

Avery raised her juice and clinked glasses with him. "Is it your birthday tonight, Jed? I feel like you are acting weird."
