Chapter 1674 Aren’t They All Takeout?
Lexie’s heart skipped a beat in response. As she felt that Julian Gilmore despised her, her face flushed. Damn, it doesn’t feel good!
At that, Julian entered the room. Although the table was spotless, the air in the room still made him frown—an obvious aroma that came uniquely from grilling food over charcoal still filled the space.
“W-What brings you here?” Jessie couldn’t help being conscience-stricken. Julian stared judgingly grim at a certain someone for some time before finally asking, “Why the silence?”
“I’ve just eaten grilled skewers,” Jessie answered honestly in the end.
“And who gave you permission to eat that kind of thing?!” Julian condemned, startling Jessie. She immediately stood straight and drooped her head like a misbehaved child. She didn’t even know what to do with her hands.
“You’re not allowed to eat this sort of unhygienic food with zero nutrition again, and don’t even think about eating covertly!” Julian fumed, then suddenly turned to Lexie. “And you, don’t get them for her!”
Also frightened, Lexie tucked her neck and vowed at once, “I will never do that again!”
At that, he turned his head toward Jessie and commanded, “Go and brush your teeth.”
Jessie blinked in response. The man didn’t express any disdain or the sort, but she felt that she had been scorned beyond redemption.
Julian, on the other hand, stormed off after that, probably unable to stand the stench of grilled skewers in the space any longer.
When Jessie heard the door close, she came out, still brushing her teeth, and exchanged a glance with Lexie, still feeling somewhat fearful. “Goodness me! Oh, my heart. Did you see Young Master Julian’s face? That was freaking scary. He looked so pissed off that I thought he was going to mangle me!”
“Yeah! What’s he so upset about?! I’ve only eaten skewers, haven’t I?! Not even my mom and dad would lecture me in such a way.” Jessie brushed her teeth in frustration.
Though still feeling hungry, she was officially banned from eating the rest of her dinner, so Jessie could only starve for the rest of the night. Then, just as she was deciding to make noodles, the doorbell rang. She answered it this time around and found Julian’s assistant carrying a takeout bag. “This is the dinner Young Master Julian ordered for you, Miss Silverstein.”
Jessie’s inner self tumbled with joy at that. “Please tell him I said thanks,” she said as she took the bag from the assistant.
Lexie had coincidentally come out of the shower. “You’ve ordered another round of takeaway?” she asked curiously when she saw Jessie carrying a takeout bag.
“It’s not me. Young Master Julian got it for me. Join me.”
“Aren’t they all takeout? What’s the difference?” Lexie mumbled as she sat down and watched Jessie open the bag to reveal an exquisite set of containers. Even though they were plastic as well, they looked premium. The bowl itself cost about fifty in the market.
“Woah! Fancy!” Lexie exclaimed. Even Jessie was stumped. She never expected Julian to order her such a fine dinner.
