Chapter 246 - 157 Charlotte Miller’s Ruthlessness_3
"Thank you, apart from the hospital’s nursing fee, I’ll also give you an extra amount. Her mood isn’t great right now, so her temper may not be good either. You really have been through a lot." Although it was said out of politeness, it was, in fact, true; Luna Miller’s spoiled and unruly behavior has been around for quite some time.
"It’s just as it should be, just as it should be..." The young nurse nodded; the scent from Mrs. Hallow was truly pleasant, with a faint rose fragrance that made everyone feel comfortable.
After arranging everything, Charlotte Miller hurriedly prepared to head to Ethan Baird’s company.
At the hospital entrance, she unexpectedly spotted a street vendor selling Jianbing, and her mouth watered instantly.
"I’ll have one..." Even this little stall had a queue. She waited for a while before it was her turn.
"All toppings? All twenty-one kinds." The vendor didn’t even look up, just started making it, cracking two eggs onto the mung bean batter.
"Everything, lots of sauerkraut and chili, please." Since becoming pregnant, not only did her taste change, but her temper became odd too. She had just been near bursting with anger, but seeing this food lifted her mood.
The vendor deftly spread the sauce, added crispy crackers, sprinkled scallions, added a sausage, peanuts, sauerkraut, just a pile of things, and handed it to her when it was ready.
"How dare you eat that?" She barely brought it to her mouth before it was taken away.
The man’s voice was low but magnetic, the layers of musk scent winding into her breath, energizing Charlotte Miller.
"Why are you here? Give it back quickly." She had waited ages to buy it, and it’s still hot; if it cools down, it won’t taste good, and the crispy will lose its crunch.
"Well, beg me then." Was it even sanitary to eat this? What if it causes an upset stomach?
Could he not come? The driver had informed him in the morning that the lady went to the hospital, then the maid called saying she left after drinking half a bowl of porridge. When will this little girl ever ease his worries?
When he arrived, the driver pointed at the Jianbing stall ahead, not daring to say anything more. Looking at Charlotte’s incredibly eager face made him both helpless and amused.
Helpless because she ignored the delicious food at home, amused because her behavior was so endearingly funny.
"You haven’t paid yet." The vendor still didn’t look up; flirting and bickering without paying was indeed odd.
Charlotte blushed a little and was about to search her bag, but Atlas Hallow already took out his wallet and tucked a big bill into the plastic tub where it said "Find your own change," and without retrieving the eighty he should get back, he walked away with his arm around Charlotte’s waist.
He waved to the driver to leave first, then opened the car door for Charlotte.
"If you don’t give it to me, I’m getting angry." Once the car door closed, the smell of sauerkraut and chili sauce became even stronger; she was dying to have it.
"Here, haven’t I given you everything you wanted? Otherwise, where did this come from?" Atlas held the bag of Jianbing in one hand and gently touched Charlotte’s still flat belly with the other, eyes full of indulgent smiles.
"I meant the Jianbing!" Charlotte glared, leaning forward and stretching her arm to grab the bag; if she couldn’t eat it soon, she really would lose her temper.
"Just this once." Atlas certainly didn’t dare to provoke this little lady now; this might not be very sanitary, but it doesn’t look difficult. Let’s have the maid learn it, so if she likes it, they can make it at home.
