Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) -
Chapter 1136
Sam left shortly after. After he left, Mabie came over and spoke softly to her daughter.
"Actually, I think that Sam isn't that bad. He is a capable person, and is always kind to others. He seems like a decent guy whom you can rely on."
Vera gave her a look after hearing what she just said. Mabie immediately smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm just saying. He's going away anyway."
Sam had left, so he wouldn't have heard what she said anyway, so it didn't matter. Older people were always concerned, so Vera just let her be since it wouldn't cost her anything.
She felt really negative for a couple of days. It was not until Beanie came to the restaurant that she forced a smile on her face. She chatted with him for a while, but soon, she felt down again.
"Auntie Vera, the restaurant is not busy today. Can you bring me out to play?" Beanie tenderly took her hand, and gently shook it.
She paused for a moment and looked at him. "Where do you want to go?"
"The amusement park," he replied.
The amusement park?
He had never wanted to go to amusement parks before. He wasn't really into things that other children liked. However, she used to take him there when they lived abroad.
She had been so excited every time they went, especially when on the roller coaster and pirate ship rides. Beanie would always look at her contemptuously and say, "Auntie Vera, you are a mature adult. Can you not be so childish? Do you always like these attractions for children?"
When that happened, she would pull on his ears and scold him, "What do you mean 'attractions for children'? This is entertainment meant for relaxation. Don't you see all the adults, too?"
He patted on the hand that was pulling his ear and said, "Auntie Vera, you're wrong. They all came with children."
"So did I!"
"But I didn't want to come. Auntie Vera, if you pull my ear again, you'll have to come here yourself the next time!"
She loosened her grip as she heard this, and then changed her facial expression and patted his ear gently. "Oh, I'm sorry, Beanie. Are you hurt? Let me blow on it for you. You'll come with me the next time, right?" "Humph! I want you to blow on my ears twice!" These memories seemed to have happened just the day before. Vera snapped out of it and noticed that Beanie was tugging on her sleeve. "Auntie Vera, are we going or not?"
"Yes, let's go." She nodded.
Beanie was so thoughtful. He must have seen that she was unhappy, so he wanted to take her to the amusement park to make her happy.
After informing Mabie, Vera went out with him to the amusement park nearby. The two had a blast and didn't go home until evening.
As soon as they arrived home, she was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep. Beanie went to the bathroom to get a pail of warm water to wipe her face. Mabie came out whilst he was doing that, and hurried forward.
"Oh, Beanie, leave it. Let me do it."
Mabie put him to bed in his room after he was done wiping Vera's face. When she came back to the living room, she saw that Vera had flipped over and was about to fall down.
She wanted to go up and give her a hand.
However, Vera, who was sound asleep, flipped over again and ended up on the floor.
The loud thud sounded painful. She woke up, holding her painful body in confusion.
"You woke up? Go to sleep in your room. If you really fell asleep here, I won't be able to move you into the room. You know, you are not a little girl anymore. I can't pick you up anymore," Mabie said. Vera looked at her and blinked. She remembered what had happened during the day. Then, she nodded in silence, got up, and went back to her room. She was being so obedient that it was unnerving. Mabie was even more worried about her.
She had seen the broken look on Vera that night, but she had been very well-behaved recently. Although she hadn't been energetic, she did not cry or make a fuss, as if she had bottled everything up inside.
Mabie wasn't sure if it would cause an incident if it went on.
The next day.
Because it was a Sunday, business
in the restaurant was good. Vera had to work hard, even if she was feeling down. When she had finished
cooking in the kitchen, she
е
happened to see Mabie talking to
Amelia, who lived next door.
Amelia?
Why was she here?
Vera was still wondering about it when Amelia saw her and rushed over to her. Mabie couldn't stop her in time, and walked over with a
troubled look on her face.
"Hi Vivy! You are so talented, opening your own pasta restaurant at such a young age. It seems that business at the restaurant is pretty good."
Well, you wouldn't pick on someone who wasn't picking a fight, would you?
What's more, there were people in the restaurant, so Vera just pursed her lips and smiled at her.
"Amelia, thank you for your compliment. You had the time to drop by today? Would you like to try the pasta here?"
Amelia rubbed her hands in embarrassment. "Thank you for offering."
"Please have a seat. I'll go prepare your pasta," Vera said
"Okay, thank you."
Mabie followed Vera into the kitchen.
She asked, "Why did you ask her to stay? Do you know why she's here today?"
"What for?" Vera asked casually, "Isn't she just bored? She just hangs around for gossip wherever she goes."
Mabie knew she didn't know the truth, judging by the way she was reacting. She told her the truth directly.
"She's here to introduce a potential boyfriend for you."
Vera paused.
"Boyfriend?"
"Why else? Her place isn't that nearby. Why would she come here just to have pasta? Is your pasta that delicious?"
"It's very delicious. It's not like you haven't eaten it before," Vera responded.
Mabie was speechless. To be fair, her daughter's cooking skills were very good, and she was excellent at flavoring. She could make different flavor even with the same
Every
seasonings, and her food attracted
good business.
"You're right. What if she replaces the pasta so good and ends up coming back everyday?"
When Vera heard this, she gave Mabie a strange look and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? Isn't it good for us if she comes to eat everyday?"
Mabie asked, "Are you kidding me? What's wrong with you?"
"What's not good about it?" Vera didn't understand.
Mabie asked again, "What if she doesn't pay?"
Vera hesitated then said, "I don't offer free food here. She shouldn't dine here if she doesn't want to pay."
After that, she went out with a plate of pasta.
