No One But You novel Chapter 44

Angel was a beautiful name, which was like a name of heroine in a story.

Originally, I was very nervous, but after seeing her, I became less nervous. She gave me the feeling of a babbling brook, which calmed my frantic and restless heart immediately.

I sat down in front of her, she looked at me with a smile, “Calvin told me about your taste, so I decided to order a few dishes. I had been here before, some dishes are still good."

I'm not fussy about food. I'll eat anything." I said.

Mrs. Knight picked up the teapot and poured me tea. I quickly got up from my chair, leaned over and grabbed the teapot. "Please let me.”

Although I was not keen on serving others, I still had to be polite to the elders.

She looked at me whoe took the teapot out of her hand with a smile, glanced over my belly, and said in a very light voice, "It's not convenient for you. Take a sit."

I was a little surprised. I was afraid that she might notice it so I was wearing a slightly looser coat. Since it had not been for three months, it was not obvious if I covered it a bit.

I thought she had caught my surprise. She poured me some tea, then placed the teapot gently on the corner of the table, looked me in the eye, and explained to me, "Calvin told me that you are pregnant."

I was surprised again, I have a good psychological quality, nothing can make me surprised again and again.

I was depressed and annoyed at that Calvin had uncovered all my cards in front of his mother, which gave me the feeling of sitting naked in front of Mrs. Knight.

Forgetting to be reserved, I gulped down the tea.

The jasmine tea was not hot with fragrance, and the cup was not big, so I just drank it all down.

After I finished it, I regretted. I quickly looked up to see Mrs. Knight.

She was looking at me with a gentle smile.

She refilled my tea. "I heard you're a journalist?"

"Well, a fired journalist." I told her the truth.

"Were you fired because of him?"

Calvin talked to his mother like a horse.

I nodded. "Yes."

Mrs. Knight smiled faintly, and I liked her smile very much. There were two little dimples in the corner of her lip, and her dimples reduced her age and made her look no more than thirty or forty years old.

She was not like those rich women I knew. She was wearing a fish white cheongsam, with two jade white platinum earrings, which was not big, but complemented each other.

Instead of letting the glitter become a burden, people who know how to dress up will use the jewelry in a clever way to enhance their appearance.

Whatever Mrs. Knight would say to me later, I felt that I liked her, that I felt a strange affection.

Soon the food was served, with the characteristics of Huaiyang cuisine and Hangbang cuisine. Crab bean curd and crab powder lion's head have been my special food these days.

I did not know whether I had heard to the stage of Suzhou operan, I felt that Mrs. Knight had Hangzhou accent, which was soft and pleasant.

When she was nagging me, she felt a little bit like a mother. Mrs. Knight was not domineering and bossy. It was quite comfortable to be with her.

We had finished our meal without talking about Calvin.

She didn't ask about my family or my birth place. We talked like friends, and she told me about the history of Suzhou opera and how to cook these Hangzhou dishes.

I also told her about the gutter oil and dead pork workshop I had destroyed, but later I regretted it, because Mrs. Knight was eating her crabmeat balls when I told her.

She looked at me with a tolerant smile. Her eyes were filled with gentleness. It should be a tense meal, but it was with great joy and ease.

This place was a restaurant for lunch and evening. In the afternoon, it was a teahouse. After we finished eating, Mrs. Knight asked me if I was free, if I could sit for a while.

I knew the point was coming. Mrs. Knight was a self-controlled person, and she knew that saying too much at dinner would give me indigestion, so she decided to say after dinner.

When I told her that I was an unemployed woman who had plenty of time at her disposal, she smiled and asked the waiter to remove the leftovers from the table and quickly served a fresh pot of tea and some fruit and seeds.

The operation was on

I looked at the stage and thinking about the plots.

Mrs. Knight picked the cup and took a sip before she spoke. “Calven wants to marry you.”
