The group consisted of old acquaintances of Tawanna, but none of them had ever witnessed her cold demeanor before.

At that moment, Tawanna entirely ignored the anxious and restless gazes of the group, focusing solely on her meal with a blank expression.

The others were extremely concerned, so they turned their attention to Steve.

They had traveled from afar to China for Steve’s sake, either willingly or through Steve’s insistence.

I had assumed that Steve was supporting Tawanna, but it appeared that was not the case.

Several of them lowered their heads to whisper to one another, and then one individual nervously looked at Steve and asked, “Mr. Rothschild, could you please clarify why you brought us to China?” Steve responded coldly, “Didn’t you hear what Miss Sweet just said? Eat first; someone will be here to discuss matters with you later.” This only heightened their panic.

Who would be able to eat when there was no clear explanation?
