Chapter 50 Dinner With Lawrence

• Hillary’s POV
• “I’m not doing it Becks and you two can’t make me.” I told her pointedly when she held my hand to stop me from walking out of that French restaurant, then I turned around to leave her presence once more. Gosh, it’s so annoying when they both team up against me, it’s even more annoying now because Miguel is not around to speak up on my behalf. He is the only one that understands me these days and he always stands by my decision, he doesn’t force me to go on dates like these two crazy friends of mine. I can’t believe that they would set me up on a date with Lawrence Delaney, why can't they just accept my decision to be alone. The worst part of it all is that they tricked me, they fucking tricked me. Avril told me she was going to take the kids out so I can have a few hours to myself, then Becky came over and suggested that we both hang out at the new fancy French restaurant in town. I jumped at her request without thinking about it.
• I have always wanted to check out this new restaurant, I’ve been craving French delicacies since I heard about this new restaurant and now that I have the perfect chance to go check it out, I didn’t think twice about her offer, I accepted immediately. When we got to the restaurant, there was a long queue outside the restaurant, but Becky saved us the stress of having to wait for a table, she walked right up to the bouncers at the door and she told them that we have a reservation, then she leaned forward and whispered something to them. I wonder what she was saying and why she had to whisper it, I also wondered where she had gotten the money to make a reservation in this restaurant. I’m in charge of our account and I’m pretty sure that she hadn’t taken money out of the account. I would have asked her about it but there is a large crowd surrounding us and I really don’t want to embarrass her with such stupid questions, so I just kept mute and watched her work her magic out here. The guys checked their tab and smiled warmly at us, then one of them gestured for a waitress to come over and lead us to our table. I was so shocked to realize that it was the best table in the restaurant. I couldn’t hold it in anymore, I turned to her immediately and I was just about to ask her how she had done it, but she took the words right out of my mouth,
