Predestined Bride

“Yes.”

With a calm expression, Christopher looked convincing.

Molly’s resolution staggered as she got more scared.

‘What should I do? I’ve told him I wanted to get out. Out or not?’

‘But what if I get robbed?’

‘I don’t have much money.’

‘I can’t afford my house rent for next month if my money is taken away. That would be a disaster. What a miserable life.’

‘What if what the robber wants is more than money?’

Molly was frightened by the illusions in her head.

She cared much more about her life than dignity.

Life was the most important thing.

“Are you hungry? Would you want to get some snacks?” Molly asked awkwardly.

Christopher’s lips curved slightly but Molly could not see it. He asked calmly, “Are you hungry?”

“Yeah! A little bit.” Molly completely forgot the supper she just had not long ago.

“What do you want to eat?” Christopher cooperated with her.

“We can eat whatever you want! I’m okay with it.” Molly tried to sound sincere.

Christopher asked, “You will pay?”

“Yeah.” Molly tried to wear a smile.

She had to.

It occurred to Christopher that he read her posts a few days ago, ‘If there is any food that can heal the soul in the world, it is certainly barbecue!’

So he said, “How about barbecue?”

Molly’s eyes lit up, “Alright!”

She was relieved.

She was so worried that Christopher would choose somewhere she could not afford.

“You look excited.” Christopher looked at her.

Molly tried to calm down and coughed softly, “I like barbecue.”

“Oh,” Christopher replied indifferently.

But Molly interpreted it as something meaningful.

But she didn’t want to figure it out. She couldn’t see through this man.

…

Christopher pulled up at a barbecue stand not far from Molly’s house.

He had a good memory. After just one glance from the car, he recognized it was the one in the photo Molly had updated in her Moments.

The business of this stand was good. It had many customers.

The best way to find a good restaurant was through the number of its customers. So the food here must be good.

Otherwise, Molly wouldn’t come here for several days.

She posted pictures of this stand several times.

As soon as they got out of the car, Molly led the way. After they sat down, she asked, “What do you want? I’ll order.”

She stood beside the table, completely unaware that she was a girl and should be taken care of by a boy.

Christopher suddenly understood why such a cute girl was still single.

She deserved it.

“Hey!” Not hearing his answer, Molly waved her hand in front of Christopher.

Christopher stood up, “Let me do it.”

“No, no, no. I’ll order.” Molly shook her head repeatedly. Customers must pay the bill at once after ordering. So she couldn’t let him do that.

Christopher raised his eyebrows slightly, staring at her without saying a word.

Although Molly had just started a career for a short time, she had learned a lesson. Those young and promising men all carried an indescribable energy.

Carl was an example.

And Christopher.

So she sat down obediently, “Alright. Just go.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
