Chapter 241 - 244 Truly Disgusting
James Brown finally finished changing the dressing and walked out, only then did Helen Wilson dare to raise her head. Despite her tough talk and always sounding harsh when speaking to James Brown, she was well aware of how mortifying and awkward it was to let James Brown see everything, it was just that she wasn’t like other girls who wore their shyness on their faces.
A delicious aroma suddenly wafted in, and turning her head, Helen saw James holding some snacks in his hands—stuffed buns, fresh pickles—all smelling so appetizing.
"Are you hungry?" James asked with a smile as he placed the breakfast on the bedside table.
"I’m not hungry at all." Helen Wilson pinched her nose, but her stomach immediately started rumbling. Although she had eaten quite a lot of seafood the night before, it looked plentiful but meat was actually sparse inside, and on top of that, the strong aroma of the food James bought was triggering her appetite.
James Brown shook his head with a hint of regret, "Oh, so you’re not hungry? I thought you’d be hungry too, and we could have breakfast together. Since you’re not, I might as well take it away and eat by myself."
"Take it away then, who cares?" Helen Wilson turned her head away from James.
"Oh, it’s too much trouble to take it away; I’ll just eat here," James replied. He picked up a bun to take a bite and started chewing loudly.
As the bun was bitten into, the aroma of meat and oil intensified. Helen was even hungrier now, knowing that James was deliberately tantalizing her. If she continued to show her pique, she’d have fallen for his ploy. So she turned back, stretched out her hand to grab a bun, took a big bite, and said proudly, "I’ll eat too."
"I thought you said you weren’t eating?" James feigned surprise with "wide-opened eyes".
Helen Wilson was even more pleased with his reaction and said with a giggle, "Is it okay if I want to eat now?"
James responded in annoyance, "I’ve never seen such a fickle woman."
