Chapter 274 The Lunch

Hailey was no longer a little girl but still confined by her brothers, which made her lose face and took away her freedom. Therefore, she was not in a good mood in fact but even kind of irritated. When she saw Owen, she was more annoyed.

Owen became sticky and went to Traditional Medicine Center every day to see her. Although she wanted to stop him from coming, she

couldn’t leave the ward so he still came to the ward regardless of her attitude.

What’s more, the Moores took all the responsibility for her suffering in the club. They said that she went into danger in Bob’s club and

Owen didn’t protect her well, so they ordered Owen to take good care of her as compensation. Days ago, Abby held her hands and said genially, “Hailey, whatever you want to eat, just ask Owie to buy them for you. It’s his duty to look after you. Just take him for a slave.” At

that time, Hailey felt it difficult to say no to her so she just smiled politely. As for Polly, since she was also receiving treatment at

Traditional Medicine Center, she asked Owen to deliver meals to her together with those for Hailey. In short, the Moores had arranged all

the things for Owen and Hailey.

This time, Owen brought a little box with him besides a lunch box. He just ignored Hailey’s impatience and smiled warmly. “Here’s the

panned steak. Your favorite.”

Hailey glanced at him and said, “Aren’t you busy? Why do you have so much time to come here? Don’t you need to deal with your

business? Or, you just became a deliveryman?” Her mockery, however, didn’t Owen’s feelings at all.

Owen put down the boxes and said, “I just came from Mazedew Museum.”

Hearing his words, she felt nervous immediately. “Does my grandpa know I am here?”

Staring at her face, he said, “No. You asked me not to tell him about it, so I didn’t.”

She breathed a sigh of relief. “Good.” She didn’t want her grandpa to worry about her because he was quite old and busy with his work.

“Oh, he mentioned you. You haven’t seen him for days. He asked me what you were doing recently.” Owen was putting the dishes on the

desk.

She looked at him nervously. “What did you say?”

“I said that you just had a waist injury and couldn’t walk for a long time, so Dr. Sears ordered you to stay at home. I promised that you

would go to see him after a few days,” said Owen calmly. Although Owen didn’t tell Hailey’s grandfather the whole truth, she indeed had a

waist injury and got confined; therefore, what he said was not a lie. He took out his phone and suggested, “I think you had better give him

a phone call.”

Holding his phone, Hailey thought for a while and called her grandfather. She hadn’t given him a call days before because her voice was

so husky that he might sense something strange. The phone was connected soon and she said the same story to her grandfather as

Owen.

Jason grunted after hearing her explanation and asked her to be more careful. He wasn’t quite worried about her. When she mentioned the

confinement, he laughed instantly and said, “Ryan did a good job. You should be confined to learn a lesson.”

She was helpless and speechless by his reaction. After a while, she hung up the phone and gave it back to Owen. “Thanks,” she said

quietly.

“My pleasure.” Holding the phone, Owen could still sense the warmth from her hand so he grabbed it more tightly.

There were delicious dishes on the desk with a good smell, which aroused Hailey’s appetite. She began to eat with a fork in her hand. A

cook hired by the Moores always made tasty food and although Hailey didn’t eat much, she had more food than usual when she was in

the Moores. These days, she also ate many foods thanks to the cook..

Owen loved looking at her while she had her meals. In his eyes, she always behaved cutely.

Hailey chewed food slowly and elegantly in a civil manner and never had her mouth full of food. But she could finish her meal in a short

while. Besides, she didn’t want to control her diet so just in a few minutes, she ate half of the food with her lips a bit oily.

Owen just stared at her quietly and smiled.

Hailey looked up and noticed his gaze and smile. “Why are you looking at me?”

He answered, “Because you are pretty”

She was speechless. I know I am pretty. I don’t need you to tell me about that: “Hey. Look away. I can’t continue to eat if you keep staring

at me like this,” said she with dissatisfaction.

“Okay” He closed his eyes “I don’t look at you now.

Hailey now wondered if he was a fool. Then she lowered her head to focus on the delicious food.

Suddenly some noises from Owen’s stomach broke the silence in the room, which drew Hailey’s attention. She paused and looked up. Her

gaze moved from his stomach to his face. Owen didn’t expect that his stomach would make some noises so he looked a bit

embarrassed now.

“You haven’t had a meal, have you?” asked she in surprise.

He replied kind of stiffly, “No.” Then he added, “When I came back home from the museum, I thought that you might be hungry, so I

fetched the lunch box and rushed here without having any food. Just finish the dishes. I am not hungry actually. I can have my meal

later.”

She frowned. ‘But your stomach just made a loud noise. You must be hungry. She pulled open a drawer and took out a fork and a knife for

him. “Enjoy the food with me.”

Holding the fork, he was quite stunned as well as happy. He just looked at her with disbelief. He asked, “Are you sure?”

She didn’t want him to be so humble and careful as if he owed her a lot of things. So she said tonelessly, “I can’t have all of these. I am

quite full”

It was a rare chance for him to have a meal with her, so he didn’t refuse and put some meat on her plate. “You need to have more protein

to recover. You are so weak and slim now.”

She wasn’t used to his kindness. “Just have yours. I can eat by myself.”

Then the two of them enjoyed the food quietly without more talk. But this chance was so precious to Owen that he would remember it for the rest of his life. He tried to eat slowly so that the lunchtime between them would last longer. He also hoped that he could stay with her longer and longer. However,

it didn’t take them quite long to finish the meal. After drinking the last drop of soup, he felt somewhat pity. Hailey stared at him with confusion, wondering if he had been hungry for a long time. The boxes and the plates were all empty now and both of them didn’t waste any food. After cleaning up the desk, he took out a wooden box and gave it to her. “Take this. She took it over in a daze. “What’s it?”

Owen didn’t tell her directly. “Just open it.”

She opened it and found a small enamel bowl with beautiful colors. Her eyes lit up immediately with twinkles.
