CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 27

Chapter 27 A Warm and Happy Bowl of Noodles 

The boss sighed with a look of pity and pushed the noodles to her, comforting, "Hurry to eat, or the noodles will be lumpy soon." 

Lilian wiped her tears and showed a hard smile. 

Then she picked up the chopsticks and began to stuff noodles into her mouth. 

In the boss's eyes, she seemed to eat nothing for several days. 

While stuffing noodles into her mouth, Lilian couldn't control her tears. Big teardrops flew down into the bowl and were eaten by her with the noodles. 

The restaurant was run by a middle-aged couple who were in their forties. They once had a child when they were young, but the child had a car accident and left. 

They had been running the noodle shop to try their best to help those who could not afford to eat, hoping their deceased child would have a good life in heaven by them doing good deeds. 

Lilian sat in the restaurant all afternoon and didn't leave even after dark. 

The wife of the boss was a bit worried about Lilian, so she discussed with the boss, "This girl looks quite pitiful. Does she have nowhere to go?" 

"She can't speak. She probably came here to look for a job." 

When the guests had almost left in the evening, the wife of the boss came to Lilian and said, "Little girl, where is your home?" 

Lilian shook her head. 

She didn't have a home. Accurately speaking, she hadn't had a home since she was five years old. 

The wife of the boss sighed, "If you don't have a place to go, why don't you stay here and help us with our work? There's a miscellaneous room inside where you can sleep. You just need to wash dishes and clean up the shop during the day." 

Lilian was stunned by her words and looked at her in surprise. 

The wife of the boss said with a smile, "But I can't make much money by running the shop. I don't have any salary for you." 

Lilian agreed with a nod. She thanked the wife of the boss with a gesture although she knew the wife of the boss couldn't understand its meaning. 

The wife of the boss looked at Lilian in a daze, as if seeing someone else through her, and said, "If my daughter were still alive, she would probably be as old as you."
