I Kissed A CEO And He Liked It! novel Chapter 14

The restaurant by the harbor had a perfect view of the docking boats, the gleaming bay, and night skies.

It was located on the 30th floor of a commercial complex, sitting a block away from the docks.

Many guests were in line to have dinner at the said restaurant, but Kyle, being the CEO of the franchise, was assisted through a secluded area, offering a perfect and romantic view of the bay.

And to further ensure their privacy, all the surrounding tables were emptied, just for Kyle and Gabriel's supposed test dinner.

So far, the experience left Gabrielle impressed, feeling like she was on an actual date.

"Wow, the lobster looks so delicious!" While Gabrielle expressed excitement about that evening's main dish at the back of her head, she was truly worried.

Warren rarely took her to a fine dining restaurant, and she absolutely had not experienced eating a lobster with a knife and a fork!

So far, she managed through the starter meal and soup dish, but she was utterly concerned about making a mess while eating the dish.

"But... didn't I order a steak?" She asked, with her brows drawn together.

Kyle studied her expression before he revealed, "Um, we are here to test the food, so we are going to try at least two main dishes." He pointed his hand at the shellfish and said, "I took the liberty of ordering the lobster for you."

"Oh," she said, before forcing a smile.

"Don't you like lobsters?" Kyle asked while maintaining to stare at her. "This is one of my mother's specialties."

It was earlier that Kyle had told Gabrielle of how his mother managed most of the restaurants, being the previous head chef before finally handing over the throne to someone else. Hearing him say the dish was a specialty his mother came up with, she could not pass on the lobster.

Gabrielle nodded and laughed before she admitted, "I do... I like lobsters... It's just that... I don't know how to eat them with a fork! Haha... I usually use my hands."

The corner of Kyle's lips curved up. He did not answer, but first, cut through his own plate of lobster. He said, "Let me help you then."

After completely detaching the meat from the lobster's tale and slicing them into pieces, he returned his gaze to Gabrielle and exchanged her plate with his. "The claws are already cracked open. There, all you need to do... is to eat."

At that very moment, Gabrielle seemed to have heard heavenly music engulf her. Her surroundings blurred, except for the handsome man before her.

The CEO of the Wright Diamond Corporation had just sliced her seafood, ready for her to chow down.

'Oh, my goodness! This guy... Why is he treating me so nicely?' She asked herself in silence.

Quietly, Gabrielle resumed her meal, taking some time to think about her recent circumstance.

First, she seemed to have gotten the job so easily. Second, Kyle, a CEO of the biggest company in the city, is treating her so well. So well that she seemed to be having a dinner date with him!

Recalling how the front desk supervisor suggested Kyle was not comfortable around women, she turned her attention back to Kyle and asked, "Ummm... Kyle... are you... always this nice to women?"
