Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 1475

The old lady's expression brightened at the sight of all the food in the bag. She had stayed in South City before and her son used to be the manager in a factory, but still, she had not had many chances to taste such luxurious dishes.

"Mom, you need to eat some once we heat these up later. The elderly need to eat more pawns to get more calcium."

"Oh, oh, okay, okay! Let's set the veggie tacos aside first. We will just have them when we have nothing else to eat some other day," the old lady responded with tears of joy.

The family of three heated up the dishes cheerfully while Alex observed everything with a pair of binoculars from his car that was parked outside the hostel.

There were windows on both areas in the room and hence, he could easily see everything that was happening inside. His heart was overwhelmed with pain once again at the sight of how happy the three were as they were heating up the food. He had been with Jane for almost eight years and, though she had always been gentle, he had never seen her smiling in such a care-free manner before. Her smile was so sweet that she looked like a young woman and a small child at the same time.

Soon, the dishes had been heated up and the three took their seats around the stove to eat. Noah gestured for Jane to eat the prawns and she refused with a smile, "Let Mom eat. She needs some nutrition. I might be pregnant, but I can't eat too much, or I might have a hard time giving birth." She then proceeded to peel one of the prawn and placed it onto the old lady's plate.

The old lady did not hold back and dug in happily. However, when Jane went to peel another prawn, that was when the old lady refused to eat and insisted that Jane have it.

She then placed the peeled prawn onto Noah's plate and said, "You need to eat more, Noah. You are the breadwinner of this household. Mom, my unborn child, and I all depend on you."

Noah did not respond directly, but instead placed the prawn back to Jane's plate casually.

"..." Jane did not refuse, and cast Noah a smile, "There are seven prawns, Noah. I will have three; you and Mom can take two each, okay? That way we won't have to argue about it."

The three agreed happily. Jane was the one who peeled all the prawns as she was exceptionally good a t it. It was mainly because back when she was living with Alex, she was usually the one that peeled the prawn before feeding them to Alex. Alex was extremely particular when it came to prawns, as he would not take ones that were overcooked or undercooked. He only accepted the ones that were cooked tenderly with a bouncy texture to it. The prawn must remain in its full shape without being torn in the process of peeling the shell. Jane had figured that she needed to devein the prawn and follow the path to break the shell apart to reveal the entire prawn. That way, the prawn would taste its best.

Even at that moment, Jane was still skilled in peeling prawns, but the one that she was feeding them to was no longer Alex. He did not know how he managed to watch as the three in the room ate the leftovers in all his misery.

His driver, Andrew, reminded Alex over and over again, "Master, Master, let's go back. It's been a day and a night and you haven't even touched the bed for a second. You need rest. We already know that Mrs. Poole stays here anyways, so things will be easier from now on."

However, Alex could not hear a word. His eyes remained fixated on the inside of the room until he lost sight of it after a while, as most of the people in the hostel closed their doors and dimmed their lights.

Alex went out of the car abruptly and went straight into the hostel. The main door of this type of hostel often remained open, as no one knew who needed to exit or enter at night. Alex went to stand underneath the window of the room where Jane and Noah stayed boldly, just in time for him to hear something.

"Noah, stay in my room tonight and let me take good care of you, okay?" Jane whispered.
