Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 355

Chapter 355 Night Market Encounter

Next, Lachlan threw one hoop after another almost without fail!

The onlookers here didn't care whose hoop it was and began to scramble for them.

"Mine!"

"Haha, this is mine..."

"This one also has a hoop on it, just take it!"

The vendor looked at the scene and shouted until his voice went hoarse, but to no avail!

Even the crowd that had been scrambling for hoops pushed him over and he sat on the ground with tears in his eyes.

"Let's go."

At this time, Lachlan picked up all the things Nora and Miranda had bought and called out to the two women before leaving this hoop stall.

"Mhmm! Daddy is great!"

Nora hugged her teddy bear with a happy smile.

Actually, Lachlan had discovered that the vendor was colluding with the bald man to stimulate customers but hadn't planned on doing anything too extreme. It wasn't unreasonable to use it as an incentive for consumption.

He only intended to throw three hoops before leaving since even the most expensive things in these stalls weren't worth much in his eyes. But he hadn't expected such shamelessness from the vendor!

Clearly he had hooked onto that large copper gourd himself, but he exchanged it for an ordinary gourd instead of admitting his mistake. Ha ha! Did he think his customers were fools?

After returning everything back into their car following this incident, Lachlan continued accompanying Nora and Miranda as they strolled around aimlessly.

There was nothing else he could do since both Nora and Goddess CEO still seemed very interested despite having walked around for nearly half an hour now. Eventually, the three of them arrived at East Night Market where Lachlan's gaze suddenly sharpened upon seeing a woman selling handicrafts nearby.

This woman wore cheap clothes, and her belly bulged slightly indicating she was pregnant.

The woman sat beside two little girls; the older one about Nora's age while younger appeared only two or three years old. When Lachlan saw them, his brow furrowed, and he took steps towards them.

"Daddy, you want to buy some handicrafts?" Upon seeing what happened, Nora followed along with Miranda. They'd been walking together all day, but this was still first time Lachlan actively approached any stall by himself.

After coming closer, Lachlan spoke up looking at her face, "Madam, why are you standing here selling stuff while you're pregnant?"

The woman paused for a moment, then looked up at Lachlan. A complex expression flickered across her face.

Awkward, ashamed, embarrassed, and with a hint of resentment that she couldn't quite express.

"Lachlan, it's you? Are you here to make fun of us?" The woman chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Her two daughters were timidly looking at Lachlan. The older one whispered "Uncle Lachlan" ...

Lachlan smiled at the children and then shook his head at the woman. "Madam, why would you say that?"

This woman was none other than Theo's wife Maryam Murphy!

Maryam gritted her teeth. "Lachlan, I know Theo wronged you before. But now he's missing and I'm just trying to make ends meet for my children by setting up this stall. You don't have to come here to gloat over our misfortune."

Maryam thought Lachlan held a grudge against her whole family and came specifically to revel in their downfall.

It wasn't entirely unfounded since Theo had bad-mouthed Lachlan in front of his wife and kids many times before.
