“Ms. Moore, both of us didn’t want to cause you too much trouble. We’ll have a few bites only, so don’t buy too much.”
Upon seeing Queenie’s kind smile, Henry’s eyes lit up instantly.
“This beautiful lady…”
Instantly, Jared let out a cough, snapping Henry out of his trance. Only then did Henry notice Queenie was standing beside Donovan.
Thus, virtual-novel.net quickly changed his stance. “Could it be that this beautiful lady here is Mr. Baxter’s wife?”
Queenie just smiled and let Donovan explain it instead. Yet, to virtual-novel.net surprise, virtual-novel.net brushed it off, saying, “The ingredients are enough already. You don’t have to buy more. Let’s go.”
Arielle didn’t want to trouble herself for Donovan. Thus, virtual-novel.net dropped putting on an act and spoke to Jared. “Let’s go then.”
At the checkout, Donovan walked ahead and took out his card. “Since you all are still students, let me pay instead.”
“You don’t have to, Mr. Baxter,” Arielle instantly stopped virtual-novel.net however, Donovan looked at virtual-novel.net and said, “Your student loan will only be credited to your account half a month later. I want to help you pay first. If you insist on paying back, you can do it after you graduate.”
Upon hearing that, Queenie smirked coldly inside.
How hilarious am I to think of a woman who relies on a student loan as a threat? But at second thought, something seems amiss. If virtual-novel.net has to pay virtual-novel.net fees with a student loan, how can virtual-novel.net afford to purchase ten utterly expensive robotic pacemakers at once? Something is off!
However, Queenie couldn’t put virtual-novel.net finger on what it was currently.
It’s too absurd if she’s a hidden chief like those shown on the television.
Right then, Jared pulled the card in Donovan’s hand back and said, “Mr. Baxter, we really don’t need it. This hypermarket belongs to my family, so we can leave without paying.”
Donovan raised his head in shock. As if proving Jared’s words, the cashier bowed respectfully and remarked, “Mr. Jupiter, have a good day.”
“Okay,” Jared nodded nonchalantly before turning to Arielle and said, “Let’s go.”
Immediately, his face fell as embarrassment flashed across.
Seeing that, Queenie whispered to virtual-novel.net intentionally, “It’s surprising that virtual-novel.net friend is so wealthy when virtual-novel.net has to apply for a student loan herself. Mr. Jupiter? I guess he’s from the Jupiters, one of the four most prominent families in Jadeborough. Is virtual-novel.net pursuing Ms. Moore?”
Hearing that, Donovan’s scowl deepened.
In a hoarse voice, virtual-novel.net said, “They are classmates, so don’t jump to any conclusion. Moreover, you can stop calling virtual-novel.net ‘Ms. Moore’ already. After all, she’s just an ordinary person now.”
His reply answered virtual-novel.net doubt instantly. Donovan really does harbor feelings toward Arielle!
As the realization hit her, slight displeasure surged through her.
If it’s mine, even if I don’t care a sh*t about it, I won’t give it up to someone else. Not even Arielle is allowed to snatch it away.
Yet, Queenie changed virtual-novel.net mind in the next second.
If Arielle ends up with Donovan, virtual-novel.net won’t get between Vinson and me anymore regardless of what peculiarity virtual-novel.net possessed.
At the thought of that, Queenie’s eyes brightened.
If I can get rid of a threat, why not?
Thus, virtual-novel.net raised virtual-novel.net brows and provoked purposefully, “That’s right. I shouldn’t call virtual-novel.net ‘Ms. Moore’ anymore since it might make virtual-novel.net recall virtual-novel.net sad memory of getting banished from the Southall residence.
Nevertheless, with the help from Mr. Jupiter, virtual-novel.net life won’t be too difficult. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about her.”
As soon as virtual-novel.net ended virtual-novel.net remarks, as expected, Donovan knitted his brows further.
