[Chapter 304: The Chaos Plan in Los Angeles]
In the villa's dining room, Hawke emerged from the kitchen with the meal prepared by Erica, setting it down on the dining table.
Brian chose a bottle of citrus wine, opened it, and poured the orange-red liquid into three stemmed glasses. As Hawke and Erica came out with their plates, he turned to Hawke and said, "Erica keeps saying you're a great cook."
Hawke replied, "Tonight's chef is Erica."
Brian looked down at the steak and vegetable salad on the table, unsure if he should eat it. The last time he had eaten Erica's cooking was four or five years ago, and it had been so bad it made him want to cut his tongue off.
Hawke picked up his fork and knife, cut a piece of steak, and tasted it. Only then did Brian feel brave enough to dig in; after he ate a bite of steak, he found it wasn't bad. But it has a sour smell of love.
The three raised their glasses for a toast.
Hawke spoke directly, "If you have something to say, just say it."
"You wouldn't stick around for dinner if there weren't an issue," Erica said, pouring more wine. "Is it inconvenient with me here?"
