Chapter 92 Melinda Has the Final Say for Today
The cool breeze blew gently, carrying the flowers’ fragrance with it. As they met each other’s gazes, it seemed as if time had stopped.
After some time, Melinda returned to her senses and averted her gaze shyly. “Let’s. Let’s go to the town. next door. We’ll go there by train.”
“Why?” Stanley was confused. “Why do we need to take the train?*
“Listen to me!” Melinda insisted. After playing with the kites, Melinda took Stanley to the train station. She skillfully bought two tickets online and used her ID card to scan it. “Initially, we wouldn’t have to buy any tickets if we went there by the inter-city rail. However, I want you to have it as a memento. Here, keep it!”
Since Stanley had dozens of private planes, this was his first time arriving at the train station.
It was cramped and noisy there. Next to them was a traveler with many bags and an adult holding two children. However, Stanley didn’t seem displeased as he took the ticket from Melinda.
“Let’s go!” Melinda was excited.
After they went through the procedures and got on the train, Stanley sat by the window. Melinda sat beside him and said, “We’ll arrive soon.”
Slowly, the train began to move, and Stanley looked out the window. This was a new experience for him, and he felt calm as he watched the scenery flash across his eyes.
The town next to theirs had preserved its historical culture. Since it was not overly developed, the food and places were unique. It was a slow-paced city that didn’t have many cars like those big cities.
As soon as Stanley got off the train, he felt nostalgic. This is an excellent place to clear my mind, he thought. Then, he asked Melinda, “Have you ever been here before?”
Melinda smiled at him and said, “Let’s go!” She waved at a cab and told thnovelxo.com fast updatee driver an address.
Ten minutes later, the cab arrived at an alley. Stanley paid for the ride and got out of the car with Melinda.
“Are you hungry?” she asked.
Stanley shook his head and said nothing. He was a man with few words, after all.
“After we visit Emily, I’ll take you to places with the best food. My treat!” As Melinda spoke, she walked ahead of the road. She forgot that Stanley couldn’t eat anything.
Stanley followed her and arrived at an old alleyway. The walls were covered in moss, and the road was narrow. Thus, the moss would easily get stuck to their shirts if they were not careful enough.
When Melinda arrived at a run-down door, she knocked on it.
“Miss Melinda!” A girl wearing scruffy clothes flung herself into Melinda’s arms. “You came!” She was
thrilled.
Stanley noticed that Melinda didn’t mind how dirty the little girl was. Instead, she hugged Emily tightly and grinned. “I am a person who keeps my promise! When have I ever lied to you?”
“I sent Grandma to the hospital.” Emily released her and took a few steps back before bowing deeply.
Melinda Has the Final Say for Today
Thank you for sponsoring me, Miss Melinda!”
“Did you go back to school?”
“Yes! Hurry up and come on in!” Emily was excited. Then, she looked at Stanley and said, “Hello.”
“Hi, Stanley replied softly.
Melinda looked at him and saw that he was an odd one standing in a dirty alleyway while dressed smartly. “Do you want to come in?” she asked since she didn’t want to force him.
Stanley followed her into the small, dark room. After Melinda gave Emily some money and hugged her, she promised to revisit the latter before leaving. Thirty minutes later, they arrived at a restaurant. Melinda conversed with the owner and paid him some money before entering the kitchen to cook for herself.
“Don’t just stand there. There’s too much smoke in here!” The smoke was so strong that Melinda couldn’t even open her eyes. She grabbed the spatula and coughed. They need to fix the pipe. It’s too small! she thought. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing that she was coughing. Stanley was distressed. He went into the kitchen and dragged her out.
“Hey! What are you doing? The food is going to burn! Melinda was still holding the spatula in her hand.
Seeing that her face was dirty, Stanley said, “I injected a new type of medicine this morning. Taylor said I won’t be hungry for the whole day.”
“I’m almost done!” Melinda struggled out of his grip and rushed into the kitchen.
Once again, Stanley entered the kitchen.
“You said that you would listen to me!” Melinda cooked as she glanced at him. “Get out!”
Hearing her words, he stopped in his tracks and looked at her for a moment before leaving. At that. moment, Stanley was covered with the pungent smell of oil, and he felt like throwing up as he smelled it..
After some time, Melinda took out two plates of homemade dishes. Then, the owner gave them two bowls. of rice.
“Why don’t you have a taste?” Melinda dragged him to the table and gave him some utensils. “Even if you are not hungry, you still have to eat something. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be fun if I’m the only one eating.”
“Why don’t you wash your face? I’ll be waiting,” said Stanley.
Hearing his words, Melinda narrowed her eyes and left. When she saw herself in the mirror, she realized that her face was covered in grease.
