Chapter 39 Stomachache (Part Two)
"What?" Her ears moved and she turned around.
He was silent.
The soup in front of him was obviously more tempting than her questioning.
He ate porridge and meatballs wholeheartedly and turned a deaf ear to her questions. He didn't even
respond.
He couldn't even make a sound even if he was hit by a stick!
Cherry angrily lay down on her chair.
Her stomach was warm, and the pain was fading away gradually.
He finally turned around and said to her, "Go to bed. I'll help you look after your restaurant."
"No, I won't. You'll make me lose money later."
Although she said so, she felt strangely relieved.
Her eyelids were heavy.
She got up early in the morning and took a boat to the C City for the wholesale of seafood. It was not
early to finish the night snack business and close the restaurant. She kept thinking every day, but in
fact, she didn't have much time to rest at all.
Now, even her disordered stomach was so comfortable, and her eyelids could not help but become
heavy...
She was so sleepy that she just needed to sleep for a while.
At night, it began to rain again in the autumn night of the H City.
The autumn night was getting colder and colder.
But she didn't feel it at all.
Because beside her, there was a warm body snuggling up to her, like the warm embrace of a mother.
She couldn't help getting closer to the heat source.
The man held her tighter.
"Mom..." Her voice was choked with sobs, and even the corners of her eyes were wet.
Mother...
When her mother was alive, she didn't have to be as tired as she was now.
She didn't have to go to school with the key, cook by herself, or work hard to pay off her father's
gambling debts...
Her mother was strong.
Her mother always said, "I'm here. Cherry, don't be afraid. "
Once the person who loved her most had gone, the person who wanted to be strong had become
herself...
She sobbed.
Someone patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry. I'm here."
She opened her tearful eyes.
Her eyes met his.
"Are you awake?" He said lightly, "That's good. You can come down and open the door."
He put her down from his arms.
Most of his body was wet, and compared with her body, it was not difficult to imagine how he carefully
protected her in his arms when he sent her home just now.
She blushed and quickly took out the key to hide her shyness. "By the way, how do you know my
house?"
"Your father told me." He looked down at her.
"My father? !" Cherry looked up at him in shock and asked, "You said... I... " She almost fainted.
Her father had always been longing for her to get married as soon as possible, so that he could play
mahjong and gamble little money every day happily. Now it was over. He had already suspected that
she had a boyfriend. Now, the appearance of Jacob, alas...
She could no longer complain her father's thinking ability.
"Did he say anything?" She said weakly.
"He asked me to send you back and asked me to tell you that he won't come back tonight."
Jacob said.
'Damn it.
Dad, why did you push me into someone else's arms happily?'
"Now that you're here, I'll go back. Call me if you need anything tonight. " He watched her open the
door and said goodbye.
She was so depressed that she waved at him and said, "Drive carefully on the way."
He hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm sorry."
She was stunned for a second. When she was about to ask why he should apologize, the man had
disappeared in front of her quickly.
"Hey..."
She helplessly smoothed her hair.
She was calm and shrewd. When she met this man, she felt as if she had been thrown into a trash can.
Her IQ of 200 was not enough.
She threw herself into the sofa and shouted at her mother's photo.
"Oh my God. How can I face my father tomorrow? "
Jerome didn't enter the house until five o'clock in the morning of the second day.
He yawned. When he came in with red eyes, Cherry had already dressed up and was about to have
breakfast.
"What?" He was surprised and asked, "Why do you get up so early?"
Cherry glared at him and said, "Of course. I'm going to take a boat across the C City to buy seafood at
half past five. If it's too late, I won't be able to get it. "
Her tone was full of blame, and Jerome had to chuckle twice. He rubbed his head and didn't dare to Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
make a sound.
He really thought that his daughter was too "tired" last night. He didn't expect her to get up so early. If
he had known it earlier, he would not have been caught.
Although Cherry was angry, she quickly filled her father's bowl with porridge and said, "Eat it quickly
and go to bed after that. Don't go to the restaurant at noon. I'll call you when it opens this afternoon. "
Jerome kept his daughter's concern in mind. He said sweetly, "My daughter is the top leader inside and
outside. Ha-ha, from now on, I will try not to be at home at night and create some opportunities for you.
What a pity. Such a good daughter is going to get married soon... "
"How dare you!" Cherry threw the bowl on the table heavily.
Jerome was shocked, but he continued, "What are you afraid of? I, your father, is an open-minded
man. I had experienced the affairs of young men and women. You can't always go to his home or sleep
with him in the hotel. Listen to me. It's true. "
Nonsense!
"He's not my boyfriend. He's just my friend." said cherry, gritting her teeth.
