Chapter 111 The missing dresses 4 (1/2)

Jeremy chose quite a far restaurant for their lunch. Despite the grumble from both the women, he was firm with his decision. They had to follow him, by the way, so they had to accept his choice.

He parked the car and helped Ryn getting out of the car. The lightbulb was left to take care of herself. He placed a hand onto Ryn's back, urging her to walk quicker.

Mika pursed her lips, sulking. What was the point of her being here if her evil brother treating her like air? Even Ryn was helpless against that stupid man! ”Stupid Jeremy.”

Jeremy almost said a table for two when he was asked. He glanced at the sulking Mika and told the waiter they were three people. He still refused to 'release' Ryn, preferring to hold onto her hand. It was not a tight grip but just enough that she was unable to break free from him.

The waiter led them to the secluded table. Jeremy pulled a chair for Ryn but ignored Mika... again. Mika stomped her feet on the floor a few times, demanding him to treat her the same as Ryn's.

The waiter's eyes kept looking at the trio, speechless. These three looked like they were from upper families based on their clothing (Ryn borrowed Mika's clothes) but the behaviour from one of them (Mika) did not convey an upper-class vibe. She looked more like a spoiled childish little girl.

Not wanting for Mika to make a scene, Ryn stood up and pulled a chair for her best friend. She patted Mika's hand to calm her down and at the same time warning her not to act so childish in the public.

Mika calmed down almost immediately. However, she did stick her tongue out at Jeremy and smiled innocently at Ryn.

Ryn could only shake her head in bemused. Mika was being a usual playful Mika while Jeremy was just being his silly self.

They ordered what they wanted. Ryn ordered more than usual. She was so starving, she felt like she lost a kilogram since the breakfast they had this morning. The waiter almost stumbled bringing all the food. He even had to ask another waiter to help him bringing all the food. It was a lot, actually more like for five people instead of three people.

He excused himself and left them having their lunch without interruption.

Ryn took a sip of her hot chocolate drink before pushed it to Mika to taste. Without wasting any second, Mika took the mug and tasted the creamy drink.

”So creamy,” Mika scrunched her face. No wonder Ryn wanted her to taste.

Ryn looked at the hot lemon drink Mika chose. She would not say anything.  She would not.

”Well, at least mine taste better than yours.  Why do you keep dieting?”

”I am not like you,” Mika groaned. She seriously envied Ryn who could eat whatever she wanted, unlike her.

”Thanks to my parents.”

Mika stuck out her tongue childishly.

Jeremy laughed seeing their banter. Then, he noticed the look from other customers and shushed them. It was his turn to receive the stick out tongue from both the women.

”Okay,  okay. Enjoy your food,” he told them.
