The Woman From Hell -
Chapter 834
Chapter 834
Quinn looked at the medicine on the cash register counter and said with an unkind expression, "Areyou planning to kill me?"
"Do you think I have nothing better to do?" I looked at her with a frown. "That's the medicine torelieve your back pain. You can’t get it in general pharmacies or hospitals. Don't worry, there won'tbe side effects."
Quinn looked at me for a very long time before scoffing and opening up the box of medicine.
I walked to the water dispenser, took a paper cup, and placed it on the cash register counter.
My actions stunned Quinn, but she did not say anything to mock me. She took the cup and ate themedicine.
After sweeping, I poured myself a glass of water and sat on a chair. "Take one when the pain is hardto bear. I'll bring you a few more boxes in two days."
She looked at me, her gaze shifting outside the window. She said mildly, "Don't go places if youhave a cold, lest you spread it to others."
Perhaps Munchkin had spread his cold to me.
Fortunately, it was not serious as all I had was a stuffy nose. I was surprised that she could hear it.
It was just that she was pretty stubborn. She clearly cared about me, yet the words that came out ofher mouth were so unpleasant to hear.
After taking a sip of water, I closely observed her every movement.
Compared to before, she was much calmer now.
Perhaps at her age and coupled with the fact that she did not have a child of her own, there weremany things that she did not care about anymore. She merely wanted to live the rest of her life inpeace and quiet.
"Thanks for your concern, Quinn," I said with a smile," I'll take my medicine when I get back."
She glared at me. "Who's concerned about you?"
I merely smiled and said no more.
She went upstairs and quickly came down again. This time, she had a bag in her hand.
She walked over and put the bag on the table, saying coldly, "I don’t like to owe anyone anything. Ihappen t o have a few bags of tea with me. Take them home. Drink the tea once in the morning andonce in the evening. You just need to drink for two days. Don't think you can do anything justbecause you've given m e a few boxes of medicine."
I took them with a smile. "Thanks, Quinn."
She hummed softly, her attitude softening.
It was a sunny day and most of the snow outside had melted. Looking out the window, it felt likespring had come but it would take a long time for winter to be over in Whaldorf City.
When it was almost noon, Quinn asked me, "Are you staying for lunch?”
I did not expect her to ask me if I was staying for lunch and felt a little surprised. I looked at her in adaze.
Quinn started being hard-headed again. "I don't want you to go complaining to Theo saying that Ididn’t ask you to stay for lunch. A narrow-minded woman like you is more than capable of doing
such a thing."
I laughed. "You think too much, Quinn. If you're willing to serve me, then I’m more than willing tostay for lunch."
Quinn snorted. "Make do with the food, then."
She got up and went to the kitchen after saying that.
She was a meticulous person and wanted everything t o be delicate. That included food.
Half an hour later, I looked at the table full of exquisitely prepared food and lamented.
Sure enough, a young lady who grew up in a well-off family knew how to enjoy life.
We had no common topics to talk about, hence we merely ate in silence.
Halfway through the meal, Quinn brought over a bottle of red wine and we drank while we ate. Itmade the whole situation less awkward.
Theo and I had been having slight issues lately, so I was not in a good mood and had been eatingless. Perhaps with the help of the red wine, I ate plenty and even felt uncomfortable from my fullbelly.
I did not expect Theo to come, so I was surprised to see him coming in.
He smiled at me and walked over to sit down beside m e. "Is the food good?"
I nodded with a smile. "Have you had lunch?"
He took a new set of cutleries and said with a smile, "I haven’t. That’s why I'm here to cadge ameal."
