l Am Poor
At this time, her mobile phone suddenly vibrated.
She took it out and found that the content of the message was a series of dish names, and there was no other redundant content.
She didn't know who sent it to her, but she could make an excuse to leave."I have something else to do." She stood up and looked at Jerome without expression, "I used to like you, and I don't deny this but, I won't like you any more. As for why and how I married Leonardo, Vicky knows best. I'm telling you seriously, believe it or not. "The reason why Nomsa liked Jerome was that he was the only man who didn't dislike her and even cared about her. Now it seemed that his sympathy for her was false. They had known each other for so many years. Didn't he know what kind of person she was?
Karen, her mother, didn't believe her. So how could she convince an outsider, Jerome?
And then , she left the dining room box without hesitation.When she closed the door, she heard Jerome say to Vicky, "I used to think that she was a pure and kind girl, but I didn't expect that she would..."
Vicky pretended to be sad again, "I also didn't expect..."
Nomsa clenched her hands and pursed her lips tightly, leaving the restaurant without looking back .
The mobile phone in her pocket rang again without looking at it, she answered the phone.The familiar deep voice pounded her eardrum , "Pack all the dishes in the message and bring them back. Nomsa was shocked before she could react , it was the voice of "Douglas." "Why haven't you left?" The reply she got was the sound of the call being terminated. Looking at the terminated phone call, she was so frustrated that she held her head and squatted down. Why was everyone making things difficult for her?
Karen and Lynn gave birth to her but don't love her. She was forced to marry into the Emerson family, her husband hated her so much that he refused to see her.When she doesn't want to stir up any trouble but 'Douglas' kept pestering her. But, if she were to ignore what 'Douglas' said, will he tell Leonardo that she had seduced him? When she thought of this possibility, Nomsa sighed and stood up.
Although she had done something similar to threaten Karen and Vicky, if 'Douglas ' were to say nonsense, no matter if it was true or otherwise her to protect the family reputation .
...
Nomsa didn't buy those dishes that 'Douglas ' wanted. She bought some groceries before going back.
When she entered the apartment, she saw 'Douglas' tall frame sitting on her single sofa. The handsome man tilted his head as he rested on the sofa.His long legs were crossed in a comfortable position. It is wasn't for his pale look, from his calm expression, no one could tell that he has been shot. Even so, it doesn't look like he fits into the cramped room with her, after all, he was the spoilt son of a rich and aristocratic family. Although his personality was flawed, he still has the aura of the rich and privileged.
She placed the groceries down on one side and bent down to change her shoes. She felt a chill approach. She raised her head and saw the man who was just sitting at the sofa standing next to her, inspecting the groceries that she had brought back. Douglas finished looking at the groceries and raised his eyebrow, "These are the stuff you bought?" Nomsa already changed her shoes, turned and picked up the groceries, said calmly, "Takeaways are expensive, I'm broke."
Douglas looked at her from head to toe and indeed her clothes were cheap and old.His new sister in law was really...extremely miserable.
She doesn't care what he was thinking and took the groceries to the small kitchen.
...
After an hour, Nomsa brought the dishes out. Douglas put down his cell phone and looked at the dishes. They look bland but appetizing, suitable for someone ill. Nomsa placed a bowl of rice in front of him and didn't bother him. Unexpectedly, she realized that after eating a few mouthfuls, 'Douglas' expression turned sullen and gloomy. Nomsa's heart skipped a beat. What happened? Her dishes could offend this master? Douglas's expression was sullen and he placed down the chopsticks, stood up, and left.His footsteps were steady and not a sing of weakness. Nomsa stopped eating for a moment but didn't follow him out.
Outside
Douglas was searching his pocket for a cigarette, he finally remembered that he didn't have any.The familiar taste of the dishes reminded him of his mother.Though his elegant and refined mother was born into a rich family, she was gentle and virtuous. She loved to cook and prepare the soup but, in the end...
When he thought about the damp and dirty basement, he clenched his fists and punched the wall with a "Bang!"
Even Nomsa who was in the room eating could hear it. She hesitated and was worried.She placed the bowl and chopsticks down and went outside, "What? What happened?"
