Chapter 225 - Reservation For Katherine

Katherine wanted to run to him and hug him so tight that he would feel her warmth for the next couple of months. But the airport was a place with many eyes. She walked towards him slowly, slower than the normal human\'s pace until she reached in front of him.

He was already on his feet, waiting for her to leap into his arms... to do something.

"I\'ll miss you, too," she whispered. There was the reply to his text. She looked at her cellphone and her disposition brightened. "We still have two and a half hours until you board. Come on." She threaded her fingers through his and pulled him along towards the restaurants.

The H city airport had some very private restaurants for high-end clients and Katherine had made it a point to book a table for the three of them.

"Is this why you dragged me out of my house early?" Cage asked his manager, baffled and amused at the same time.

"Of course. Your girlfriend called me last night and asked for my cooperation. Who would have thought that you were stupid." Stephen gave him a pointed glance. "Don\'t think it escaped my eyes. You thought she didn\'t mean it." He said this so much lower. Cage was thankful for it. If Katherine heard, it would spoil her mood.

"It\'s a fabulous surprise," Cage acknowledged. He rubbed circles on the back of her hand, hoping to give her the same warmth he made her feel in that moment.

"Reservation for Katherine Austen," she informed the server at the reception. The reception quickly went through her list and confirmed. She took the party to a very private table, out of the eyes of the common diners.

"How did you manage to do this?" Cage asked, slightly in awe. It took some considerable amount of persuasion to get a reservation here.

"I have my ways," she smugly replied. She even gave him a wink that made his heart skip a beat.

"What do you want to eat?" she asked sweetly. The ambience was romantic and while Cage and Katherine sat side by side, exchanging loving glances, Stephen sighed and felt like he was being stabbed.

He, too, missed Angelina. He had a lot of time to talk to her. Yet Angelina was somewhat of a cold person. She loved the push and pull game. Despite acting coldly towards him, she was also rather clingy. In the time Cage and Katherine had spent apart, they had met multiple times and gone out on dates. Angelina had even stayed over at his place one night.

Seeing the lovebirds in front of him, he felt the strong urge to talk to her. Once the shooting started, he would be running around like a headless chicken to make Cage\'s life a little easier.

Cage and Katherine startled when they heard the ringing sound coming from Stephen\'s phone.

"Are you calling Angelina?" Katherine asked, amus.e.m.e.nt coloring her voice.

"Can\'t watch the two of you without thinking of her," Stephen confirmed. Angelina picked up soon enough. She was in what seemed like a dressing room, and her makeup was being done by an artist. She looked unbothered as she picked up.

"Why did you call?" she asked flatly as the makeup artist fixed her hair.

"I\'m having a meal at the airport. Was missing you, so I called." Stephen sounded love struck. Angelina\'s eyes wavered from her usual look of boredom.

"I haven\'t had food since last night," she mentioned without emotion. Stephen looked like a doe caught in the headlights.

Katherine put her hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing. Angelina didn\'t eat the night before her photo shoot so that she looked leaner and less bloated. It wasn\'t good for her health, but she did what she had to.

"You haven\'t eaten for over sixteen hours?" Stephen asked. He was worried. He also knew that her work demanded such sacrifices. He might not like it, but this was how she would flourish in the industry, unfortunately.

"Yes." Angelina\'s answer was prompt. "What did you order?" she asked... almost like she wasn\'t dying of hunger and just wanted to know.

"How long until you are ready?" Stephen changed the topic.

"Five more minutes," she answered, looking at the makeup artist for confirmation. There was a pleasant silence between the two as the call continued. Katherine and Cage sat hand in hand, simply enjoying the moment together, wondering when they would see each other next. On the other hand, Angelina simply looked at the mirror with Stephen staring at her.

This was the first time he had seen her work.

Wow. How could a woman be so s.e.xy?

Fortunately, Angelina was called to the set before the food arrived. They said their goodbyes and the call was disconnected. The other two didn\'t ask questions.

Stephen sighed as he turned to Katherine. It was good that she was right in front of him. "I heard that you might visit us on set during shooting. Do you have any idea when that will be?" he asked casually.

"With how hectic things will be right now with work and the competition, I might not be able to go. The competition is in two months, so I need to prepare for it, as well. Would you mind if I let you know later?" she asked.

"I have watched your videos. They look wonderful. Your videos are being pushed by the platform, too, so you have an advantage over other participants regarding popularity." He paused and gave her a pointed look. "You will be asked questions. I don\'t know if you want to reveal you have a boyfriend lest they go hunting, but I think you should say you are single for now. It makes you more appealing," he commented.

Cage was visibly frowning from the aforementioned statement. "What do you think?" Katherine asked him cautiously. She didn\'t want to hide but she knew how dangerous netizens were. Whatever Cage decided, she would be okay with that.
