There he was, his lean legs stretched out, dressed in a crisply tailored suit, his shirt buttoned to the top, radiating a controlled elegance.
Yvonne expressed her surprise. "Not swamped with work today? You're back rather early." Norton replied with a light-hearted retort. "I'm not a machine-I need a break from work now and then!" He was visibly cheerful. He got up, approached her, and gently took her hand. "Cwith me." Curious, Yvonne asked, "Why?" as she allowed him to lead her. They entered the dining room, where Norton gallantly offered her a seat, suggesting, "Try this." It was then that Yvonne saw the elaborate meal set out on the table, wine already poured.
She expressed her astonishment. "Did you cook all this?" "Actually, I arranged it all," Norton explained with a modest tone.
"Of course!" Yvonne realized. It seemed unlikely for Norton to have cooked it himself, but she was still impressed by his effort to put together such a meal.
She eagerly began with her preferred choice-orange-glazed salmon.
The salmon was perfectly crispy on the outside, succulent on the inside, with an ideal mix of sweet and tangy flavors. Tasting it, her eyes sparkled with joy.
"This has to be from Zevis's Kitchen!” she replied, recognizing the signature dish she adored.

He then clapped his hands, prompting a portly chef in a uniform to appear from the kitchen. "Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Burke!" exclaimed the chef with a warm smile.
"Just letknow if you'd like anything additional."
Yvonne was astounded. "He's the chef from my favorite restaurant? ve You actually brought him here!"
Norton casually said, "If you fancy something else just ask him."
With a grin, Yvonne perused the menu and eagerly added a few more selections.
