Chapter 868 When we arrived at the door of the entertainment hub, Cassey was standing at the entrance. The child in her belly was growing and her bump was showing. She looked much chubbier now.
When I got out of the car, she walked towardand quickly said, "Susan is still on the way. She'll probably arrive soon. Let's go and wait for her inside the dessert shop." I nodded, and we went to the dessert shop next door.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe shop was well-renovated and looked especially feminine. It was a suitable place for ladies to have their afternoon tea.
Upon entering the shop, the waitress approached us." Did you make any reservations, Ma'am?" Cassey nodded and handed her a card.
The waitress took it and nodded slightly, making a please gesture. "Please cwith me, ladies." We cto a private room, and the waitress put a tablet on the table. "You can refer to the menu here and order right away." Cassey nodded and started swiping on the tablet." What flavors do you usually go for when eating desserts?" I smiled slightly. "Anything. I'm not a picky eater." She shrugged. "I'll order, then." After ordering, the waitress served two free desserts." This is a new menu item in our shop and isn't for sale yet. We appreciate any feedback you may have after trying it." Cassey picked it up and gave it a try before saying with a smile, "It's rather good." The waitress smiled. "I'm glad you like it, Ma'am." Cassey put down the plate and said, "Another one of our friends isn't here yet. You can serve our orders when she's here." The waitress nodded. "Sure." I looked at the dessert in front ofand there was something round on top that looked like glutinous rice but it did not seem to be that. I asked curiously," What's this round thing on top?" Cassey clicked her tongue. "You don't even know this? Doesn't Theo buy you desserts?" "It's a popular fruit in South America. It looks a lot like glutinous rice and is soft too, but it's a fruit that's often used to make desserts and pastries. It tastes quite good." I nodded. "I see." I picked up the plate and took a bite before saying with a smile, "It doesn't seem like a fruit but has the sweet and sour taste of a fruit. It's amazing." Cassey snickered lightly. "You're so easily impressed." I looked at her and teased, "You were in such good shape last time. I didn't know you're an expert at eating." "I have the kind of enviable body where I can just eat and not get fat." Cassey raised her eyebrows. "I'm a food connoisseur. I've tried almost every eatery from street food stalls to high-end restaurants." Glancing around the place, she continued, "I rarely cto the restaurants in this neighborhood because there are a lot of annoying noblewomen staying around here. It's easy to bump into them.
You can hear them competing with each other, and they chatter like sparrows. It's simply annoying."
I laughed. "I understand. Those noblewomen have nothing better to do and have no one to talk to But when they do have someone to talk to it's only their husband and children. They only talk about jewelry and bags too. It's hard not to show off to each other when they talk about these things." Cassey was just about to say something when we heard an argument outside the door.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne of the voices sounded familiar, so I asked, "Could that be Susan?" Cassey froze. Then, she stood up from the chair and hurried outside the private room.
Sure enough, several ladies were arguing in the corridor, and one of them was Susan.
One of the women kept pointing at Susan, her tongue wagging non-stop. She looked a little familiar, and when I walked closer, I noticed that it was Sara. X
