Chapter 183: Not A Dinner Date
"Honey!" Dmitri called Lanny’s attention.
Lanny turned to him with a frown on her lovely face. "It’s LANNY. Not Honey! Honey is not my name. Stop calling me that!"
Dmitri just chuckled upon seeing the annoyance on her pretty face. He just loved teasing this woman.
"Don’t be upset. Come with me. I’ll treat you to dinner. You don’t have to cook tonight!" Dmitri excitedly invited her.
Lanny raised her eyebrow, eyeing him suspiciously. "Really. Perhaps, you are getting tired of eating my delicious recipe? You don’t like my cooking. Just be honest."
Dmitri smiled and scratched his face. "I didn’t mean it like that. Can you stop twisting everything I say? I just want to show my gratitude by treating you to dinner. You’ve been an amazing hostess these past few days. I feel at home here because of you. You’re taking such good care of me."
"Alright. It’s your treat, right? Don’t expect me to pay for our dinner tonight! Let’s choose the most cozy restaurant in the city!" Lanny uttered, trying to scare him. But Dmitri just chuckled at her words.
"Shall we go? I want to try the different and famous cuisines of York City. Who knows, I might decide to buy some properties and settle down here... with you!" Dmitri winked at his last remarks.
Lanny could only sigh helplessly before rising from her seat. "Stop saying things you don’t mean."
"Wait here. I’m just going to change," Lanny mumbled, not waiting for Dmitri’s response as she headed to her room. She felt the need to doll up a little and wear a proper dress.
After scanning through her wardrobe and finally choosing a dress, she put it on and took a step back to admire her reflection. Suddenly, a realization hit her.
"Gosh. Why am I getting all dressed up? This is just a simple dinner, not a date," Lanny scolded herself, lightly tapping her forehead in frustration as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.
