Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 276

Zoe was sleepy even before she arrived at the room. Peter helped her to the bed and put the secondary room card in the power slot, leaving a light on for her.

The hotel room had a main card and a secondary card. The main card could open the door and turn on the power supply, but the secondary card could not open the door.

This was designed for the sake of certain people's needs. Some often left their phones or computers in the hotel to charge, but if they pulled out the card from the power slot, the power supply would be cut. So some large hotels would simply make two cards. Even if people were not inside, the lights could be turned on.

Of course, since this was a business, hotels that provided two cards were often more expensive.

However, if Peter remembered correctly, this hotel belonged to Shane.

Peter left the hotel, stood on the cold street, and felt the wind taking away the residual heat of his body. He suddenly became clear-headed.

He went to the supermarket next to the hotel to buy some daily necessities for Zoe.

"Sir, are you buying things for your girlfriend?" An employee came to his side and asked curiously when she saw that he was holding a pair of disposable women's underwear.

"Yes," Peter said.

"Wow, you're so young and you have a girlfriend already!" the employee joked. "We have a total of five different products, and each of them has different characteristics. Do you have any requirements for them?"

"It needs to be comfortable and from a large brand. It must be expensive," Peter answered again.

This kind of spending habit was influenced by Shane. As Peter spent more time with Shane, he learned that the best things may not be the most expensive, but the most expensive things wouldn't be too bad.

He didn't know how to choose things, nor was he stingy. Coincidentally, he also earned a lot of money, so he could choose the most expensive items when shipping, so he didn't have to trouble himself too much.

"Er, then this one is good. It has the highest price and is more cost-efficient too. With regards to the brand, this one has a guarantee that..."

Before the woman finished speaking, Peter reached out to grab the items on the shelf and put them in the basket. Then he turned to look at the employee expressionlessly and said, "I need shampoo too."

The employee swallowed and led him to the next aisle with her head lowered.

Peter bought a lot of things, and even bought a lot of finger foods, like potato chips and jelly, as well as some frozen meals and cakes that looked good.

He knew that Zoe didn't like the suite's own shower gel and shampoo. He also knew that she wasn't used to using the hotel's towels and toothbrush, so he bought all those things too. Besides, it didn't matter how long she had to use them for.

He walked away with bags of things in his hands. The employee who had helped him leaned against the cashier counter and said, "That scared me to death."

"What's wrong? Didn't you say he was cute and rushed to serve him?" The cashier teased.

"He is very cute, but he is too cold. His gaze looked like a murderer's..." The employee waved her hand in the air to gesticulate.

"Stop exaggerating. I think he seems like a good person. Besides, he bought enough to support the shop for days. Why didn't you talk him into buying more stuff?"

The employee shook her head repeatedly.

If she forgot the fact that he had come to buy necessities for his girlfriend, even if he were single, she wouldn't serve him again because of that look in his eyes.

It was too scary.

Peter returned to the hotel. The moment he pushed the door open, he saw Zoe sitting on the sofa with her hands supporting her head and watching TV.

The TV was on, but there was no sound. She must have muted it.

"Are you hungry?" Peter sat down beside her, took out the cake and milk from the bag, and glanced at the TV.

It was playing a documentary about a murder that had occurred on a train.

Peter impatiently reached out to turn off the TV with the remote control. "Stop watching this. Weren't you sleepy? Eat something and go to sleep please?"

"Hey!." Zoe snatched the remote control from his hand. "Look at this."

Peter looked at the TV.
