Chapter 17: First Met
Cara looked at everyone in turn with a wary expression. Objectively, the woman seems to be a good person. Her husband stood further away, his face ferocious. Gavin with long sideburns, after a moment of seriousness, smiled friendly at her. While Alden looked at Cara as if trying to unravel who she was. The truth is that his eyes can’t see anything, Alden is just trying to prove that his life is fine even without seeing the light. And looking ahead is a very normal reaction. But his cold appearance made Cara think of scary things.
All of them were very strange to Cara. In terms of level, both sides are like heaven and an abyss. Usually, people with money made her cautious. Because Cara knows that ten rich people out of nine despise the poor, inferior to them. She was also treated rudely and severely scorned when living with homeless old men. At that time, when people saw her naughty person, they criticized her cards badly. Being kicked out is a very common thing that Cara has encountered. I wonder what kind of person she has to deal with? Cara was a little nervous. After a few minutes of quiet exploration, Cara also gathered enough psychology to open her mouth.
“Hi, I’m Cara. Thank you for this sudden visit. May I ask who you are?”
“I am very pleased to meet a young and beautiful girl. Unfortunately, the meeting was such an unhappy situation. Luckily she is fine. My son is very sorry about the accident. We have reported to the authorities, to take appropriate handling measures.”
The mother replied, having a few words when talking about the accident. Hearing this, Cara immediately understood that this was the family of the driver of the car. The one who made her life difficult in the future.
Polite attitude, showing that this family has a very good culture. Cara felt much lighter.
“Yes, I see. Thanks for visiting.” Cara said slowly.
“Don’t say that, it’s our responsibility as well as our obligation.” The mother spoke again, while the men kept as quiet as possible. Kind of like this family where once the women speak up, the men just listen.
Cara struggled to smile, looking for a word to say. Suddenly I remembered my hungry stomach. She was a little shy, honestly admitting:
“I’m feeling very hungry right now. Do you mind if I have my breakfast?”
In fact, Cara was looking for an excuse to kick Alden’s family back, she just didn’t expect his mother to have prepared something for her soon. When Cara asked, she was afraid to not give it.
“Then eat this.” His mother said fervently, turning to motion to Gavin, who had a large box in his hand.
Understanding, Gavin walked over and placed the box on the table right in front of Cara. She was bewildered and did not understand anything until she saw his mother take out the items in the box one by one, and arrange them in front of her. Just looking at it, the eyes are already there, it must be delicious to eat. Cara unconsciously gulped covetously.
Seeing her reaction, the woman smiled in satisfaction. It’s not in vain that she has been busy preparing since early in the morning
“Come on, be natural, eat a lot.” His mother urged, handing her chopsticks.
She stared at his mother, tentatively, not daring to raise her hand to accept the chopsticks. The woman’s nod to her proved that the incident was real, not a dream. Cara snorted, slowly reaching out her hands to take the chopsticks from Alden’s mother. She was about to grab a piece of instant food to satisfy her mouth, but suddenly remembered something important, and had to ask the doctor’s permission for an hour.
“Is it okay for me to eat this?” Cara rolled her eyes, timidly consulting the doctor.
“Yes… No problem.”
Keva was about to object, but then she had to allow it, even if she banned her mother-in-law, it would also violate the rules. This is Helen’s family hospital again, do whatever they want. People have the right to change any rules if they want. Moreover, these items did not affect Cara’s large wound which needed to be cautious. Over and over, opposing is not advisable.
Gavin watched Cara intently, feeling amused. This young girl even before she began to eat was devouring food with her eyes. There was no pretense as if Cara had never eaten these foods. It’s also not unusual for Cara’s expression. In the past, she had to suffer from a full meal, sometimes without a stomach all day. It is not wrong to say that she has never eaten as well as today. Looking further, Gavin noticed that her face still had some bruises on it and that her eyes were a very special color, lavender. Gavin had never seen such beautiful eyes.
As for Alden, although he couldn’t see anything, he could feel the atmosphere. It wasn’t as unpleasant as he thought before coming here. He wanted to personally apologize to her. Gavin says he can act on his behalf, but Alden doesn’t want to, he needs to be responsible for what he did. Alden still couldn’t believe this girl who worked at a prestigious strip club was not a stripper. Cara studied at a good university, which means her job is pretty light. His family also verified the truth. Alden took a deep breath, putting his prejudices aside anyway. It’s not that because Cara works at a nightclub, her dignity is less important, or worthy of contempt. He knew it was difficult, but Alden still couldn’t do it. He still lost faith in others. Suddenly he had a thought, a profession like a dancer would be more suitable for his ex-wife. Emma looks great when flexing on the catwalk, in the form of clothes that are lacking in top and bottom. Just thinking about it made him feel sick.
Cara ate everything his mother served. She looked like a child at a birthday party. He found his way through Gavin’s guidance. Alden bowed before her.
“Madam, I am Alden Helen, who is responsible for your current condition. I am extremely sorry for what happened. I hope you forgive me even though I don’t deserve it.”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Cara focused on eating more than paying attention to the words of the young man, standing in front of her bed. With a slice of cake in hand, she said:
“Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re saying.” Her mouth was full of food, as she spoke it spattered a little. Cara couldn’t help but chuckle at her own crazy situation. she made a mess of her hometown, while the others watched in bewilderment at the next development.
Alden moved closer to her instinctively. Luckily he didn’t stumble.
“I’m sorry for the accident that caused you injury.” This time he pressed harder for her to hear. Don’t tell me your ears were affected by the impact so you can’t hear anything!
“Oh, you’re the one who hit me.” She pointed at him: “You owe me a new cell phone and a notebook. Just replace those two and it’s all over. .”
Everyone looked at her with confusion, is it serious that she only asked for two such simple things?
