66. His Eyes Were Cold as If He Was Looking at a Stranger
Jessie was so scared that she almost fainted. Alex let her go.
Fia just turned her head and said, “Aunt Jeje, what happened to your face? Your face looks like the strawberry marshmallow I just ate. It’s so red.”
“I’m fine. It’s just a little hot.” Jessie hurriedly fanned herself with her hands and pretended that it was really hot.
The man beside her was calm and collected, but she was in a sorry state.
“Then let me help you take off your coat?” Fia carefully climbed down from the chair and walked over to help Jessie take off her outer coat.
Before her small hand got close, the collar of the small coat was picked up by her father’s big hand.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) Alex impatiently said, “Go back to your seat!”
Jessie could not be more angry. She carried Fia and squeezed onto the bench of the little fellows.
The big and two little guys looked out of the window at the same time, leaving only the back view of a man behind them.
After they sat on the cable car, they went to eat dinner.
Fia and Felix wanted to eat skewers. Jessie had told them at noon that there was a snack bar i n the holiday village that made kebabs that were delicious.
But now their father had been following them and the two little fellows did not dare to mention it.
In R City, this kind of skewers were like KFC and McDonald’s, they were things that their father had ordered not to eat.
The two little fellows held Jessie’s hands and occasionally twisted her fingers. Their eyes were staring in the direction of the skewers shop.
Jessie remembered that she had picked them up once. She was going to buy this kind of snack, but when she saw Alex, they were so scared that they did not dare to mention it. It seemed that the little fellows were also afraid of him now, so they did not dare to make a sound.
She could not help but raise her head to look at the man beside her. The sun was gradually sinking in the west, and the gradually lighting up the street lamp. The man’s angular face had an expression that was as deep as the desert, and there was a sense of intimidation other than that of rejecting people.
Jessie thought of the chaos in the skewers shop, and then she looked at the handsome Alex in an exquisite suit. She felt that it was very strange.
But since the little guys wanted to eat skewers, she would definitely take them there. She was thinking about how to say it in her heart.
Fia pulled her finger and Jessie looked down at her gently. “En? What?”
The little fellow carefully glanced at Alex before looking at her. “Aunt Jeje, are you hungry?D o you want to eat that family’s skewers?”
Seeing that the skewers shop was almost pass, Fia was extremely anxious.
Jessie knew that it was the little fellow who wanted to eat but did not expose her. She smiled and nodded. “Yes, I am hungry. Then we will go to that restaurant to eat skewers. Do the two o f you want to eat?”
“Yes!” Fia nodded her head repeatedly and stuck onto Jessie’s body and laughed. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Aunt Jeje and her were getting more and more in sync with each other.
The man’s deep and magnetic voice did not know what to say as it cut in, “It is already late. Miss Jessie, you should go back.”
Jessie looked at him blankly.
The man’s expression was indifferent and his eyes were cold.
Jessie was dissatisfied in her heart. Just now in the cable car, he still treated her like that and now he chased her away in the blink of an eye. This man was really unpredictable!
Fia and Felix looked at her together eagerly, “Aunt Jeje, are you not going to accompany us anymore?”
Especially Fia, the corner of her small mouth was flat, and she looked like she was about to cry.
In the past, she only liked them. She treated it as fate.
But now, she already knew that they were her children. They looked at her pitifully and simply wanted to take her for life.
She bent down and touched the two little fellows’ tender little cheeks. She smiled gently and said, “I’m not going back. Let’s go eat the skewers together.”
If it was in the past, she would not have stayed by his side even if he did not chase her away.
But now, she did not want any of it. She only wanted to eat with her child.
“Really?” Fia cheered and then carefully looked at her father.
Alex, on the other hand, took the lead and walked into the snack bar.
When Jessie and the others looked up, they only saw his tall and mighty back, but they did not see the charming smile on his thin lips.
It was precisely the peak period of eating, the business in the restaurant was busy.
The moment a man like Alex appeared, he immediately became the center of attention in the
restaurant.
In addition to the two cute and exquisite treasures that followed him in, he became the center
of attention.
Seeing that there were no tables, many tourists even took the initiative to invite to join them.
Alex and the two children were not good at dealing with this kind of friendly and enthusiastic flirting.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)Jessie smiled and declined them one by one and went to find an empty table. She led the three of them over and used a tissue to carefully wipe the table and chair before carrying the two little fellows up.
Alex’s hands were in the pockets of his suit. He looked down at her as she arranged the children, but she did not wipe the table and chairs for him. He frowned unhappily.
Jessie saw that the little fellows had sat down and got up to get food for them.
This was a buffet. Other than the bottom of the pot being served by the waiter, the ingredients had to be picked up by themselves from the big pot. When she brought the beef skewers, mutton skewers, meatballs, and other ingredients over with a plate, Alex had unknowingly followed her. He reached out to take the plate from her hand and expressionlessly strode towards the table.
Seeing that his expression was not good, Jessie ran after him and said, “If you are not used to i t, you can go back first.”
Alex did not bother with her and sat down at the table. He took off his suit jacket and put it on the back of the chair. He rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and took the clip to put the ingredients into the bottom of a pot in order to cook.
Jessie saw that he was doing these things neither too fast nor too slow. Her beautiful red lips curled up and she sat beside the little fellows.
She poured drinks into the cups in front of Felix and Fia. When the food was cooked, she would add more food into their small bowls. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
After boiling all the ingredients, Alex elegantly wiped his long and slender fingers with a tissue. He beckoned to the young waitress who had been deliberately walking around and asked in a light voice: “What wine is here?”
“Do you want white wine or beer?” The waitress handed over the list of wine. Her face was as red as blood and her voice was trembling, as if serving him was a glorious thing.
Jessie could not help but glance at Alex.
She did not think that the man would not look at the list anymore. A pair of dark and deep
eyes fixed on her face. “What do you want to drink?”
Jessie suddenly remembered the night after he deliberately used the wine to provoke her into getting drunk. Her pretty face began to heat up and she shook her head, “I don’t drink!”
Afraid that he would force her again, she quickly took the orange juice that she gave the little guys to drink and poured a cup into her cup for him to see. “I will drink this orange juice!”
Alex stared at her. His handsome face was indifferent and did not say anything. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)He handed the list back to the waiter. “Another bottle of orange juice.”
Finally, they had the delicious food they had been looking forward to for a long time. The two little fellows ate very energetically. They ate until their stomachs were found and bulging before they stopped.
Jessie liked to eat anything. If the two little fellows did not like to eat, she would eat it. By the time it was over, she was already full.
Alex was probably really not used to this kind of snack. He did not eat much from the beginning until the end. She then went to the stir-fried restaurant at the side and ordered a – secret beef meal for him.
Seeing her put the rice in front of him, Alex’s eyes became deeper. Jessie’s ears were a little hot, so she sat back and continued to eat her own food.
After the little fellows patted their stomachs and shouted that they were full, she looked up again. Alex also silently finished the secret beef meal.
The closer they got to the small building Alex booked at the resort, the slower Jessie’s steps became. She also held Fia and Felix’s hands tighter.
Alex saw all of her struggles in his eyes. He kept silent and walked towards the small building at a moderate pace.
Fia was tired from walking and yawned.
Jessie held Felix’s small hand and let him follow her. She bent over and picked Fia up.
Fia habitually used two small hands to hold her neck. Her small head tilted to the side. On her shoulder, she soon closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Jessie hugged her and looked at Felix who was walking beside her. Her heart felt sour and painful.
No matter how slow she slowed down, the small building still arrived.
Alex extended his long arm and carried Fia away from her arms.
Jessie could not bear to part, but he used a lot of strength. She was worried that she would hurt the child if she persisted, so she could only quickly let go and let him carry her away.
The moment Fia left her embrace, she felt as if her heart was empty.
Alex’s expression was cold. “Miss Jessie, take care and don’t see me off!”
Felix looked at her eagerly.
Alex had already walked into the building. When he reached the door, he frowned and said in a deep voice, “Felix, come in!”
Felix reached out his hand and grabbed Jessie’s hand tightly. He raised his face and his sparkling eyes were full of reluctance. “Aunt Jeje, dad said that he will bring us back to R City tomorrow. He also said that he will not allow us to run around again in the future. Otherwise, he will lock us up.”
Jessie’s heart tightened.
“Aunt Jeje, will we never see you again?” The little guy had always been sensible. When he stared at her expectantly and asked such a question, Jessie felt that her heart was broken.
Jessie was still struggling, but Felix had already let go of her hand. His small face became sad. “I know, Aunt Jeje. I cannot force you to think for us. Goodbye!”
.He turned around and quickly ran into the house.
“Felix.” Jessie wanted to stop him, but the door of the house slammed shut.
That voice seemed to have closed the door to her heart. From then on, even her life had become dull and emty.
She would never see her own child again. Even if she was free and easy... Without any restraints, what was the meaning of that kind of life?
She had already owed them five years. Was she still going to owe them for the rest of her life?
In a few short seconds, she quickly made a decision. She could no longer suppress the excitement and surging emotions in her heart. She ran over and raised her hand to knock on the door of the small building.
The door only opened after a while.
Alex’s eyes were cold as if he was looking at a stranger. His tone was impatient. “Miss Jessie, what else do you want?”
Jessie was running so fast that she was out of breath. She used her hand to cover her chest and said urgently, “I want to accompany them! I want to accompany my children!”
