She and Huey had informed the staff when reserving the private room that they wouldn't be ordering food but would still pay for the space.

Bailee felt a flush of embarrassment. But before she could respond, another detail caught her off-guard. "You mentioned... Did the guests in the next room leave?" The waiter nodded impatiently. "Yes, the woman arrived and then left with the man in a hurry." Upon hearing this, Bailee sprang to her feet, hurried to the neighboring room, and found it empty. Two chairs were displaced, evidence of recent occupancy, but the room was vacant.
Bailee's heart clenched. She quickly dialed Huey's number, but his phone was turned off.
Her complexion turned ashen. She bit her lower lip hard, and tears welled up in her eyes. She made her way downstairs.

Didn't you mention your parents changed the location? Go on without me. Convey my apologies. I need to join my wife and take care of this phone issue." With that, he headed back upstairs, focused on the phone problem.
Upon entering the room, however, he noticed a waiter clearing up.
"Where is the woman who was here a few minutes ago?" Huey asked. "She left," the waiter replied.
A whirlwind of thoughts engulfed Huey. Had Bailee decided not tom speak with his mother after all? Or had she recalled something distressing that made her leave?
