Mysterious Mr.Richard

Chapter 27 Bonny just shot herself in the foot.

The car pulled over in front of an ordinary restaurant.

Lunchtime was over already, so the restaurant was not crowded.

The waitress gave them a very warm welcome. "Sir, how about sitting there with your wife? It's also

near to the children's play area."

Pearl froze when she heard the word of 'wife'. She tried to explain, "We aren't..."

"Lead the way." Richard seemed to be indifferent. Pearl could not be sure if he interrupted her

deliberately or not.

Before Pearl turned to look at him again, he had headed to the dining area with Bonny in his arms.

They were seated next to the children's play area. There were slides and ball pits next to them. And

their designs were very colorful and enticing.

Bonny sat next to Richard causally. She placed her chubby face on Richard's arm and looked at the

menu he was holding. "Daddy, I want some fried chicken wings and fries."

"No." Pearl immediately turned Bonny down. Pearl caught a glimpse of Richard's frown, and she

lowered her voice unconsciously, "You ate a lot of junk food this week. So you can't have more now."

She was a doctor, hence she didn't like to order the twins such junk food.

Bonny drew back her neck but still begged gently, "I want an ice cream."

"You can only have one each day."

"But I haven't eaten any today."

"But you ate two yesterday."

Hearing it, Bonny turned to Brandon angrily, "You betrayed me!"

Brandon looked up from the menu and said helplessly, "I didn't."

"Then how could Mommy know that I ate your ice-cream yesterday?"

After she saying that, something suddenly dawned on Bonny. She covered her mouth hastily with her

hands and blinked nervously.

Pearl frowned. "You ate your brother's? So three in total! You're not allowed to eat ice cream tomorrow

either."

Bonny just shot herself in the foot.

She pressed her lips miserably.

Brandon shook his head for Bonny was too impetuous. He wonders where her such kind of nature

came from.

When they were discussing, Richard ordered all the food and handed the menu back to the waiter.

Bonny was upset for she could not eat any fried chicken or ice-cream. She was dispirited and her face

turned gloomy.

Richard laughed and asked, "You love ice-cream so much?"

"Yeah."

"What kind of flavor do you like?"

Bonny lowered her head but still replied weakly, "Strawberry."

"But the blueberry one here tastes better. Don't you want to try it?" Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Bonny was taken aback. She raised her head and saw the waiter coming to their table with a tray. The

waiter smiled at Bonny, "Miss, this is your blueberry ice-cream and the set menu of fried chickens."

There were two huge cups of ice cream on the tray. They were topped with blueberry jam and a lot of

walnuts.

"Ice cream!" Bonny exclaimed. She jumped up from the seat and hugged Richard's neck.

She kissed on Richard's face. Her voice was sweet and soft. "Daddy, you're the best. I love you!"

Pearl was taken aback. She didn't even notice when Richard ordered that.

Pearl didn't know what to say when she saw Bonny hugging Richard happily. She stared at Richard

blankly.

Warmth tinted the man's dark eyes. Pearl's complicated gaze made his smile fade a little. He uttered

nonchalantly, "A little more ice cream won't do harm to her."

Pearl came to her senses. She replied awkwardly, "I'm not trying to stop them eating ice cream

anymore, but it's not good for them to eat so much junk food."

"Really? I remember that you eat them a lot yourself before."

Pearl's face stiffened and even her temples throbbed for his words.

But Richard remained composed. He even pushed the other cup of ice cream towards Brandon as if

nothing had happened.

Brandon checked Richard quickly. His amber eyes were calm. "I don't like ice cream."
