Daniel Marshall nodded, his deep eyes casually scan inside the small shop.
It’s quite crowded inside and the space is tight, but the atmosphere feels cozy.
Olivia Jenkins joked, “Don’t worry, nobody here should recognize you. This place truly captures the essence of ordinary life. When I was a student I used to come here often. This shop has been around for quite a while. The owner isn’t willing to abandon his neighbors, so he never moved. People living here are used to it. Can’t sleep or coming back from work, they stop by for a bowl of dessert soup.”
Daniel let out a self-deprecating laugh, “While some people envy me, there are times when I envy others as well.”
“It’s the same for everyone. People always want what they don’t have. Human desire is like a bottomless pit, never filled.”
Daniel pursed his sexy thin lips, looking at Olivia, his heart ached for her understanding.
The landlady brought the dessert soup. Olivia stirred her mango pomelo sago, “I don’t know if you’ll like it. If you can’t eat it, don’t force yourself, I can eat two bowls. Obviously, this humble shop can’t compare to luxury hotels, where food is visually pleasing. If you don’t eat, I’ll understand. You don’t need to make a special effort to please me.”
“I’m not fussy, I can eat anything.” Learning from Olivia, Daniel stirred his mango pomelo sago, then began to eat it.
Daniel looked up, his warm gaze meeting Olivia’s, “It’s really good! The flavor is quite unique!”
Olivia jested, “If your family knew I took you to this kind of place, they’d likely scoff.”
“We should live life the way we want to, not based on other people’s opinions. As long as we’re happy.” Daniel quickly finished his bowl, and ordered two more servings of mango pomelo sago.
A comforting smile spread across Olivia’s beautiful face.
She felt a little relieved, glad that in their marriage, Daniel could take charge and handle family matters.
If it weren’t for him supporting her, defending her, understanding the situation, everyone would give her a hard time, mistreat her, even the servants. Her family life would certainly be as unpleasant as eating a fly.
Putting everything else aside, Daniel wasn’t really that repulsive.
It was late, but her sister had come back home crying, her eyes swollen from tears. Both Sebastian Thompson and Orion Smith were deeply worried.
“Who dared to bully you, sis? I’m going to teach him a lesson!” Sebastian rose, ready to fight. Bella quickly persuaded him to sit down.
Reluctantly, Sebastian sat back down.
“Sebastian, don’t get angry, you need to take care of yourself. The grievances that I’ve endured are nothing. I will make sure they pay. For now, I will have to stay here and figure out how to deal with them.”
Orion looked shocked as he quietly asked, “Sis, did the Marshall family throw you out?”
Feeling shameful, Bella wouldn’t forget this for the rest of her life. Her ruthlessness, her hatred, were all exposed, “Yes, the Marshall Family is heartless, they wouldn’t bat an eye to hurt someone. I’ve come to despise that place deeply.”
“How could this happen?”
Orion couldn’t believe it. Sebastian, driven by indignation, rose again, “I will confront my brother-in-law. We can’t let them take advantage of you.”
Bella raised her voice to stop her brother, “Confronting your brother-in-law is pointless. It’s the patriarch who threw me out. Daniel and Olivia were accomplices. Matthew almost got thrown out with me too.”
“Bastards!” Swearing angrily, Sebastian smashed a teacup.
Bella was worried for her brother, calming him down, “Don’t get agitated, I will return to the Marshall family, I won’t let Daniel and Olivia feel smug. You need to stay healthy and stay out of trouble. The Thompson family can’t lose you..”
