Chapter 198
When Trevon and the others arrived at the Grand Manor, Hackett and the others had already gone upstairs and were waiting in the private room.
Trevon brought Natalie straight to one of the private rooms. They had a private room in Grand Manor. This private room. was not for external use and it could only be used when they were having a meal.
He pushed open the door and entered. He realized that Hackett had ordered a table full of dishes and the dishes were already half-eaten.
When he saw Trevon and the others enter, Hackett smiled smugly. “You guys are really slow. Half of the dishes have been served already”
Upon hearing this, Natalie looked and estimated that there were already 16 dishes on the table. Mr. Blackwell said that only half of the dishes were served. Didn’t this mean that he had ordered 32 dishes? Mr. Blackwell really went overboard with 32 dishes for four people.
Did Mr. Blackwell want revenge or was he trying to stuff himself?
Trevon looked at the table full of dishes without any change in expression on the surface. He was disgusted by how childish Hackett was “You better finish it all or else you’re a food waster.”
Sherri never objected to delicious food. Her stomach was already growling from hunger. She had also ordered the dishes desperately, afraid that she would not be able to eat enough.
Every time she went to a pizza hub with Natalie, she would order it with all her might. In the beginning, she would feel that she could eat a cow and order everything she saw on the menu. But as she ate, she would start feeling awkward because she wouldn’t be able to finish half the food.
She remembered that she had ordered too much that time she called Edward to clean up the aftermath
As the saying went, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. The way they ordered food ran in the family. They didn’t consider their stomachs at all.
Hackett said disapprovingly, “Eat slowly, then. I’ve already bought clothes for you. You should at least let me eat my fill.”
Sherri pulled Natalie down to sit beside her because Sherri wanted to chat with her best friend. “Natalie, sit here.”
Natalie took the opportunity to sit down. As a result, Sherri and Natalie sat side by side while the two men sat on either side of them.
At the dining table, Trevon slowly put on disposable gloves and peeled prawns for her. “Keep eating. I’ll peel them for you, so you don’t dirty your hands.”
Sherri put her fork in her mouth. Looking at Mr. Wilson’s series of actions, she was stunned. She nudged her best friend beside her and said with her eyes. “Is this how Mr. Wilson usually treats you?”
Natalie replied with a look. “It’s what you see.”
Sherri secretly gave her best friend a thumbs up under the table. It meant, “You’re so awesome.”
As expected, love could not be hidden. While she was still thinking, a big bowl of prawns was pushed before Sherri. Hackett despised his girlfriend’s infatuation. “Don’t be envious of others. It’s just peeling prawns. I can do it too. Eat these. Don’t be Too touched.”
Originally, Sherri was quite touched when she saw the big bowl of peeled prawns. However, when she heard the second half. she was not touched anymore. She picked up the prawns straight from the bowl and stuffed them into her mouth. “Peel the crab for me,” she instructed Hackett.
Hackett pouted. She was really treating him as a waiter. “You really don’t hold back with the commands. Alright, I’ll peel it for you.”
Sherri felt very happy. It felt good to have someone give in to her.
Those who had you in their hearts would always take the initiative to look for you. Those who did not have you in their hearts would automatically ignore your preferences. This was what it meant to care.
Trevon glanced at the two of them who were showing off their love. He lowered his body and leaned close to Natalie’s car *Do you want any?”
Natalie shook her head. “No.” She should be on her period today, so it was better not to eat this kind of stuff.
Sherri was eating happily. But as a gynecologist, she heard that and had to comment, “Natalie, you can’t eat it. Your period is coming today.”
Natalie was speechless.
Was this topic appropriate with then around? Although they were all adults, it was a little unsuitable to talk about periods so blatantly.
Chapter 198
Sherri was still eating happily and did not notice Natalie’s embarrassment. Hackett was afraid that Trevon, this ignorant man, would not even know what a period was
Indeed. Trevon had no idea what that was.
Just as he was abour to ask, Hackett kindly explained, hus face brimming with confidence. “Trevon, you probably don’t know what a period is, right? It’s just like how you go to Sapphire City seven times per month. It’s the kind that’s very punctual. Of course, some people’s periods aren’t so punctual every month”
After that, he said to Sherri, “Isn’t that right, Dr. Landor?” He looked like he wanted to be praised.
He had a girlfriend in the obstetrics and gynecology department. How could he not know about periods? People would laugh at him if they found out
Trevon pick
cked. up the tissue beside him and threw it over. Natalie was so tired of this bickering pair of friends. At this moment, she felt that they were a match made in heaven.
Sherri’s attention was not on Hackett’s knowledge of gynecology, but Trevon going to Sapphire City seven times. She stopped eating. “What seven times? What Sapphire City? Tell me, she said, wanting more gossip.
Hackett was abnormally excited to gossip about Trevon too. He smiled and was about to say something, but in the next second, he noticed Trevon’s death glare. He shot daggers over and Hackett instantly fell silent, swallowing the words he wanted to say
However, when he looked sideways at his girlfriend’s expectant expression, he fell into a dilemma. In the end, he found a compromise. He leaned close to Sherri’s rear and said. “I’ll tell you after dinner. It’s not appropriate now”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his chin slightly and made Sherri look at Trevon Sherri’s gaze turned in the direction indicated by Hackett. She immediately understood and agreed. She suppressed the gossipy cells in her body.
Natalie saw their expressions and found it funny. Trevon’s face was dark, while Hackett and Sherri were still whispering to each other, thinking that the others could not hear.
They might as well have raised their voices.
Everyone ate very comfortably, except for Trevon, who did not look too good.
They parted ways after going downstairs. Hackett brought Sherri back to the Landor family and then he obediently went to the hotel.
In the car. Trevon pursed his lips and remained silent. The atmosphere was a little low. Natalie licked his lips and tilted his head with a smile Do you feel embarrassed?”
It wasn’t that he felt embarrassed. It was past that he had always been the one who had defeated Hackett. But recently, Hackett was like an underdog who had turned over a new leaf and was starting to laugh at him instead.
This feeling madde him very uncomfortable. He really wanted to beat Hackett up
Seeing that he was still silent, Natalie felt that Trevon looked a little like Jasper now. The little guy was always so tense when he was angry. “You don’t have a probation period,” she said to comfort lum. “Mr. Blackwell has a probation period. You’re still above him”
Her tone sounded like she was coaxing a three-year-old child.
Her soft and cuddly tone made Trevon feel much better. After all, he learned a new word tonight. “Periods”
What made him unhappy was that this knowledge was given to him by Hackett. He even compared it to the number of times he went to Sapphire City. Although it was very appropriate, it was uncomfortable to say it out loud. He lost his dignity
