Chapter 334
Yerick’s words were interrupted by his scream as I splashed my coffee directly onto his face.
Yerick, who had been sitting, immediately jumped up while wiping the coffee off his face. He scolded me, “What’s wrong with you? Are you crazy?”
Holding the empty coffee cup, I pointed at him and said, “If you ever try to pull something like this again, I’ll smash this cup over your head and then send you off to the police station.”
He was wearing a white T–shirt today, and the coffee stain had spread, leaving him looking like a complete mess, with coffee dripping from his hair.
Despite this, he remained defiant. “Madeline, don’t think you can scare me with this. I’m not afraid. I…”
I didn’t listen to the rest of his words and walked out of the cafe.
Conrad followed closely. “Who was that?”
“He’s Jewel’s younger brother,” I replied, pulling out a wet wipe from my bag to clean the coffee off my fingers.
“Does he often harass you?” he asked.
“It’s been a few times.” I tossed the used wipe into the nearby trash can.
Conrad didn’t say anything further. I didn’t dwell on the matter and said, “Your dad will probably be admitted to the hospital, right?”
“He’s already admitted, in Room 812 of Virtue Tower.”
I nodded. “I’ll visit him later.”
“Alright. I’ll go get some things. You go ahead and take care of your tasks,” he suggested.
As I walked away, I remembered Ellie had mentioned she had never had a milkshake or coffee, so I turned back to the cafe and saw Yerick trailing Conrad like a dog.
I was stunned by this scene.
So Conrad had asked me to leave so he could deal with Yerick?
I didn’t approach them but waited until they were out of sight before buying the milkshake and coffee.
“Yes, one is coffee, and the other is milkshake. They’re both for you,” I said as I opened them for her.
