My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 953

I was stunned. Staring at the candy on the table, I nodded repeatedly as I answered, "Linda said that you liked sweets, and that you may get gastric pain. Hence, you have to eat a proper breakfast. I will remember these details from now on. What happened today was really due to my negligence."

Looking at him, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. I took a slight breath, looking at him seriously, waiting for his next instruction.

After staring at me for a while, he suddenly laughed and said helplessly, "It's okay, just don't let this happen again from now on. I'm fine, go back to work. Let's have lunch together later."

Huh?!

As I looked at his pallid face, I couldn't help but be worried. "Can you stand the pain?"

He smiled and said, "I've had this issue for a long time. I'm used to it, and it's almost lunchtime. I don't want to trouble you to go out now."

I nodded and replied, "Then have some sweets first, and some water."

After I left his office, I still felt a little worried. After some thinking, I went to the pantry and got a glass of hot milk.

Naomi called me right then. I picked the call and said, "Good morning, have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet. Arianna, I need your help!" She seemed to be in the kitchen, as I could hear the sounds of crockery being moved around.

"What is it?"

"Send me the address of Sebastian's office, and I'll bring him lunch. I need to make an appointment before coming, right? Come down to help me bring the lunch to him later!"

"Okay!" I happened to be thinking about what to eat for lunch anyway. "Sebastian seems to have some gastric issues, which seem to be acting up. Come with some medicine. You are really just in time!"

Naomi giggled and said, "Of course. Wait for me, I'll be there in half an hour."

I hung up the phone as I finished preparing the milk. Then, Linda came in to get some coffee, and she looked a little tired.

I asked, "Linda, did you sleep badly last night?"

She took a deep breath and nodded. "My kid is about to start school in the next few days. She had not finished her homework yet, so I've been supervising as she completed her work every night. I guess we should think twice before having kids. My daughter was fine when she was a baby, but now, she's getting naughty! Look at my wrinkles! It's all from stress!"

As she spoke, she moved closer to me, even pulling at her skin to show me her wrinkles.

I couldn't help laughing, "What grade is your daughter in?"

"She's going to be in third grade soon. I can't stop worrying about her!"

"My daughter is going to be in first grade soon too!" I couldn't help saying. I thought about Anne then, but given Anne's personality, I wouldn't have to worry about her.

She was a little surprised. After a pause, she looked at me and said, "You have a daughter? No way, you're married?"

I nodded. Seeing that she was shocked, I couldn't help but say, "I've been married for almost ten years."

She clicked her tongue, immediately switching to a gossipy mode. "So, what about you and Mr. Milton?"
