Chapter 58

“Um… Yes!” Only after eating the ribs that Beau fed her did Eliza realize what had just happened. Her face flushed a crimson red. Beau picked up another piece of vegetable and placed it in front of her mouth. She quickly recoiled and said, “There’s… no need.” Although Eliza refused verbally, when Beau brought the vegetable to her mouth again, Eliza still ate it. Graciana, who was at the same table as the couple, covered her eyes in silence.

They were being so mushy! She was seriously regretting her decision to have dinner with the newlyweds. At the thought of that, she took a sip of water and coughed lightly. “Eliza, I’m having a sudden craving for milk. I’ll go to the mall to get some.” Eliza frowned. “You want milk with barbecue?” Graciana thought about it for a moment and said, “One always needs a balanced intake of nutrition.” With that, Graciana stood up and turned to leave. As she left, she heard the confusion in Eliza’s voice as she questioned, “But Graciana doesn’t even like milk.” Graciana rolled her eyes. Are you an idiot, Eliza? 2 ‘I’m letting you have some quality time together! Graciana thought to herself. Bang—! Suddenly, a sound brought Graciana back to the present. At a second glance, she realized that she had knocked down a little girl standing behind her. – “Are you alright?” Graciana quickly helped her up and checked her for any wounds. Fortunately, the girl had fallen on a carpet, so although she fell, she was not hurt. “I’m fine.”

The little girl was wearing a white pleated skirt and had her hair in two braids. She looked like a cute doll.

She stared at Graciana with her big, brown eyes. “But auntie, I can’t find my mom and dad…” “A lost child?’ Alarms sounded in Graciana’s head. After snapping out of it, she quickly whipped out her cell phone to call the police. The little girl was quick to stop her. “I think my mom and dad will come and find me soon.” Then, she looked at Graciana with her huge puppy eyes. “But auntie, I’m feeling a little hungry.” Seeing how pitiful the adorable little girl was, Graciana’s heart melted. “What would you like to eat? Auntie will buy it for you.” Liliana glanced at the dish on Eliza’s table in the distance. “I feel like having pork ribs…” “Pork ribs?” Graciana’s brows furrowed as she recalled that they had just ordered ribs! So she smiled and picked up the little girl. “That’s easy, I’ll get you some!” As she spoke, she carried Liliana back to their table. Eliza and Beau were chatting with each other on their phones when Graciana came back with the child in her arms. Mr. Valentine: “Did your husband cut your food up for you?” Eliza replied: “Of course! My husband treasures me a lot. He will cut my food up for me every time we eat.” After sending that, Eliza let out a long sigh of relief. She had already made things very clear. The elderly Mr. Valentine should . understand that she was not someone he should be trying to make a move on. However, what Eliza did not expect was that shortly after the message was sent, Mr. Valentine sent her another message. “As you wish.” Eliza frowned. ‘What did he mean by that? She tried to make sense of his text message. “Beautiful auntie!” Before she could make sense of what Mr. Valentine meant, she heard the sweet voice of a little girl. Eliza hurriedly raised her head. The girl in Graciana’s arms was the one who had asked for the bag of potato chips she had wanted to get in the mall!

“This lassie has strayed from her parents. She said she’s hungry and wanted pork ribs.” Graciana smiled awkwardly and set Liliana down. “I thought that since we ordered some…” “Eat up.” Beau pushed the ribs to her indifferently. “Thank you!” Liliana climbed onto a chair and stared brazenly at Beau as she chewed on the ribs.

‘Was this handsome man the beautiful auntie’s husband? “He’s really good-looking!

The voice was so stern that Liliana instinctively shrank back. “I.” ‘Oh, no! I must have pissed off the beautiful auntie’s husband. My plan to approach the beautiful auntie has failed! Liliana thought. Just as the little girl was at a loss for words, Beau stood up. His tall and straight body cast a shadow that loomed over Liliana. Feeling frightened and dizzy, the little girl was on the verge of tears. “Handsome uncle, I didn’t mean to drink your wine…” Before she could finish, the man reached out and picked her up. . On the other side of the table, Eliza was whispering to Graciana about the conversation she had with Mr. Valentine. She hurriedly raised her head when she heard the commotion.   She saw Beau pick up the little girl and make his way to the car as fast as he could. “She had some of my wine. I am taking her to go flush out her stomach.” Eliza stared blankly at them for a moment before immediately realizing how serious the matter was. She hurriedly picked up her bag and chased after them. Graciana also got up and was about to catch up with them. But the owner of the diner stopped her. “That will be a total of 58.2 dollars, please.” Graciana had no choice but to stay back and foot the bill. What happened to Beau buying them dinner?
