Triplets’ Mighty Mom Novel novel Chapter 267

Chapter 267 The Only Person in the Dark

Kate had conspicuously scooted over to South, making the couple feel like they were isolated. Feeling embarrassed, Landon looked at her, saying, “I haven’t nauseated you in seven years. Just because you’re having dinner with me, it’s made you feel that way?” Camila decided to cut to the chase. “Alright, let’s stop it right now. The person who’s paying for this dinner, be more enthusiastic and order some food!” Ignoring Landon, Kate gave the menu to George. “George, have a look. Just order whatever you like. This is on me today!” Upon looking at Landon’s grumpy expression, George smiled and perused the menu without saying anything else before ordering grilled fish. Then, he passed the menu to Camila. “That’s it for me. Why don’t you order the rest? I haven’t been around for a few years, so I’m not quite sure what the dishes actually are.” After taking the menu, she ordered a few dishes that were South’s favorites. Then, she handed the rest to Kate. Without even asking the couple, she ordered a few more dishes before directly handing the menu to the waiter.

However, Landon didn’t seem to mind it as he was used to being thick-skinned and being a freeloader anyway. Since she didn’t ask us, I’ll order it myself. Then, he called the waiter who was about to leave. “Give me a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs. Mel loves that.”

As soon as he said that, Kate almost blew her top. However, she didn’t want to make a scene out and did not say anything-even though she was furious. Melanie was slightly unhappy by the way she was being treated, but since Landon had already spoken, she could at least try to present herself as a thoughtful person. “It’s fine. There are already so many dishes. It will be a waste if we can’t finish them.”

“Don’t worry about it. Since someone is paying for the meal tonight, you can order whatever you want.” Landon looked at Kate in a provocative manner, but she completely ignored him as she had no intention to talk to him at all. Her behavior had made him feel as if his offense had landed on nothing-there was no fight for him to pick on.

However, Melanie frowned as she hated his cheapskate character. He was not poor, but it would be akin to pulling teeth for him to foot the bill. He’s so stingy, no matter from which angle I look at! I already had to exercise so much effort to ask him to buy something for me, be it a bag or clothes. After being with him for such a long time, he’s still calculative, as if it is a war! It’s so tiring! I’ll dump him once I have found a better man. I don’t have so much time to waste with him. She quietly appraised George throughout the entire dinner. Why are the men around Camila getting better each time? More importantly, they are so loyal to her!

Camila had seen through her expression-in less than ten minutes, the latter had already glanced at George more than five times. Her intentions are probably obvious to everyone except for Landon, who’s still in the dark. In fact, George, who had been speaking to South, had also noticed that. The restaurant was rather quick in preparing the food. All the ten dishes that they ordered had arrived in no time. After pouring a glass of wine for George, Kate raised her glass for a toast. “George, now that you’re back, why don’t you stay for a few more days? We can bring you around. If Camila is busy, I can be your tour guide-free of charge!”

He touched his wine glass to hers, causing it to clink, with a smile. “I appreciate it, but you guys are all working. I don’t want my presence to affect your work. Apart from that, I won’t stay for long, so you don’t have to bother much.”

Holding Landon’s arms, Melanie suggested, “George, you can ask Landon to accompany you. He’s not that busy nowadays.” Landon immediately added, “That’s right. If you want to go anywhere, I’ll send you around.” George smiled. “Sure. When I want to go somewhere, I’ll give you a call.” Landon looked at him in seriousness. “George, I’m being serious. If it weren’t for you and Camila, I might still be living on the streets now. Now that you are back, you must let me treat you well!”
