Chapter 263: Shameless (2)
This is what he owed to Carolline Ruiz and Axel all these years. If it weren’t for her in the capacity of a deputy director, Axel would have been bullied by those children. A child with no father around is somewhat special in the eyes of other children. Every time she witnessed this, she felt heartbroken for Axel and thought it was unfair to Carolline.
"Auntie, let me help you with that." Bryan Hawkins’s eyes lit up. He had not expected Emily Hill to invite him in. No matter how harshly Emily Hill might rebuke him later, he would bear it all. As long as he could enter the house, he would be happy.
Emily Hill wasn’t acting shy at all, she handed all the bags, except for her own, to him. At the same time, Bryan also took a few bags from Carolline’s hands.
Carolline was completely confused about what her mother was thinking. She silently followed them back home.
"I bought some marinated dishes, Carolline, take them out for lunch. You cook lunch. I need to talk business with Mr. Hawkins." Once the three entered, Emily Hill assigned tasks and then turned to Bryan Hawkins, "Put those things on the tea table first."
After that, Emily Hill went to wash her face and returned.
Carolline took the so-called marinated dishes and without giving Bryan Hawkins another glance, she went to the kitchen.
Before starting to cook, she poured two cups of boiled water and placed them on the tea table. Emily Hill hadn’t emerged yet. She knew that Bryan Hawkins enjoyed fine teas, but the house only had simple flower tea now. "We don’t have any green tea or the like. You’ll have to make do with boiled water."
