Chapter 147
Erika ran through the lobby on the ground floor, where there was a delivery man waiting for her with great respect, “Hi, little girl, did you ask for the delivery service?”
“Yes, please bring it to Joanna in the Sunshine villa. And make sure she will get it herself.” Erika required seriously while nodding adorably.
The delivery man soon took over the thermal box, “Okay!”
She didn’t leave until she saw him fade away from her sight.
While inside the elevator, Erika made a call to Joanna. She said in sweet voice, “Hey, I paid a delivery guy to send you the soup. Remember to have a taste as soon as you get it.”
Joanna appeared excited. She replied gratefully, “Erika, thank you! But I have no idea what to offer you as return.”
Erika sighed, “Me neither. After all, there is nothing better than the soup prepared by mommy.”
After a short pause, she added, “I know that ain’t feel good if you can’t reciprocate me with nothing. Well, I suggest a few pounds of white truffle should be enough.”
“Okay, as you wish! I will have it sent to you right away!” Joanna hung up the phone and run to the kitchen to turn to the chef.
Meanwhile, the delivery man reached the gate of the villa.
But the security stopped him outside the gate. After sizing up him, the security asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I am here for delivery.” The man showed him the thermal box.
“For whom?”
“For Joan…Jo…” However, the delivery man found it hard to recall the name.
“That girl didn’t tell me her name. The only thing I know is that she lives in the Creighton Hotel.” Replied the man.
The security soon started to grow great curiosity. He leaned forward to approach, “A girl?”
“Yeah, a girl.” The delivery man nodded.
Exactly, it was an adorable little girl.
“Okay, I know whom it belongs to. Give it to me. You can leave now.” The security took over the box and ran inside the villa happily.
The delivery man still seemed confused.
He was a bit surprised for the security could tell what he meant before he told the name.
He couldn’t help wondering if it was a must for all security working for the upper class to read other’s thoughts.
“Hey, by the way, do remember to taste it as soon as possible!” the delivery man yelled loud from behind. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The security replied with a gesture.
Of course, he knew how important it was.
He walked through the hallway and went upstairs to send it to Sebastian.
However, as he reached the door of the study, Bella stopped him.
She swaggered forward and frowned, “What are you holding?”
The security hurried to hide the box behind his back, “Nothing.”
However, his action grew her suspicion.
An evil expression appeared on her delicate face, “Show me! You can still insist unless you wanna get fired and get unemployment forever in the city!”
“Ms. Jones, please no!” hearing that, the security had to show her the thermal box.
Bella opened it and took a look, only to find that it was some common corn soup.
Corn soup? So why was he hiding it?
“Who cooked it?” Bella asked seriously.
“It’s…it’s Miss Annie…” the security stammered to answer.
