Ernest probably cbecause he wanted to eat pasta.
She couldn't panic. She had to remain calm before she had a clear understanding of the situation.
Vera talked herself into calming down. Soon, she was able to take a deep breath and walk downstairs.
As she went downstairs, she tried her best to pretend to be calm. When she saw Ernest, she greeted him as usual and then went into the kitchen.
After entering the kitchen, Vera cooked the pasta and recalled how Ernest looked at her just now. There didn't seem to be anything strange in his gaze and expressions. He probably didn't know it was her, right? That was fortunate. If he knew, who knows what he would say to Quill.
It was still unknown whether she was pregnant; that was why she had to take a test first. It would be awkward if it was a false alarm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTherefore, before she could confirm it, Vera decided that she would be the only one who knew about this. She can't be as rash as she was that day the next tshe went to the drug store.
Ernest was in the private room upstairs, looking at the bag next to him with a half-smile.
He knew that Quill had fallen in love, but he didn't expect their relationship to progress so quickly. Ernest wondered how his best friend, who had always been steady, would be like when he lost control. Also, what kind of expression would he have if he knew that he was going to be a father? If possible, Ernest really wanted to take this bag of pregnancy test kits to Quill and tease him and see the change in his expressions. He found it amusing just thinking about it.
However, it would mean that he would have to take them away from Vera. He thought it was better to keep it a secret for her sake first.
Vera went into the private room with pasta in hand. She coughed to cover up her guilt and placed the pasta in front of Ernest.
"Ernest." Ernest took a glance at her and noticed her gaze was evasive. Obviously, she didn't dare to face him.
Was he so scary? She had already acknowledged him as her older brother, but she didn't dare to look him in the eye now? "Mm, take a seat," Ernest said.
Vera sat down in front of Ernest. Perhaps it was because she felt guilty, so her breathing was very light as if she wanted to lower her presence.
On the other hand, Ernest calmly picked up his fork and ate slowly in front of Vera. Vera normally chatted with him, but at this moment, she had nothing to say. "What's wrong?" Ernest suddenly looked up at her.
"Huh?" Vera looked into his eyes, frightened. "Ernest, what's wrong?" "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?" Ernest looked at her amusedly. "You're really quiet today. You don't want to talk to me?" "No, that's not it." Vera denied as she waved her hand, "I was just thinking about something just now. It's not that I don't want to talk to you." "Oh?" Ernest raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you thinking about? I'd like to hear about it?" "That's not a good idea. You're eating right now. I'm going to bother you." Vera replied.
"I'm bored now anyway, so you can say whatever you want." After that, Ernest lowered his head and continued to eat the pasta. However, Vera was in a total dilemma. "I'm just thinking if I should recruit one more employee for the restaurant." Recruit one more employee? "Why? Are you understaffed now? Are you going to step back?" Ernest asked.
Was she trying to pave the way for the restaurant if she got pregnant? Hearing if she was going to step back, the hair on the back of Vera's neck stood up. She becvigilant and said, "No, no. I just... think my parents are a little busy, so I think recruiting one more employee might be good." "You're right; your parents aren't young anymore. They shouldn't be so busy. It'd be good to get more help. Do you have any candidates? Do you need my help?" Ernest asked. "No, this isn't urgent. I'll take my tand recruit the right person," Vera said.
"That's good." The two of them were silent for a while. Vera felt that she could no longer stay here, so she found an excuse to leave.
"Ernest, it's a bit busy downstairs. I won't keep you company any longer, alright?" "Mm, I saw it when I cin. Your business is doing very well. Get busy then." "I'm sorry, Ernest. I'll accompany you next tAfter that, Vera quickly stood up and wanted to run away. However, just as she turned around and took two steps, Ernest suddenly called to her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Vera." "What?" Vera turned around and looked at Ernest quizzically.
"I forgot to give you your things." Ernest smiled as he placed the bag on the table. At first, Vera was still a little confused. "My things?" "Yes, yours." Vera walked over and picked up the bag, confused. She didn't think too much of it, so she opened the bag in front of Ernest. As a result, Vera's face immediately changed when she saw what was inside.
"Th-This..." What?!
Vera widened her eyes in disbelief.
The things in the bag were the pregnancy test kits she wanted to buy at the drug store. Why would Π. Ernest bring these things to her? Could it be that... he had already recognized her when he was in the drug store? "What's wrong?" Ernest found her shocked expression amusing. "Are they not yours?"
When Vera cto her senses, she shes subconsciously let go of the bag. Her lips twitched, and she smiledo m awkwardly 'Ernest, are you kidding? How can these... things belong to me?" "They're not yours? But these were the things you took when you were in the drug store." Ernest said.
Hearing that, Vera could no longer smile. She scrutinized Ernest and saw that he was all smiling. He was obviously teasing her! Thinking of this, Vera questioned him, annoyed. "Ernest, you already knew it was me, didn't you?!" Ernest smiled and said nothing.
Judging from his reaction, Vera felt that she had guessed correctly. He'd recognized her, so he'd bought these things and went to her restaurant to give them to her. "Ernest, how can you do this? You!" Seeing that she was about to lose
her temper, Emest quickly said, "Alright, I'm sorry. I went there to buy something and accidentally bumped into you saw that you left sNO things behind, so I delivered them to you didn't have any other intentions." "If you didn't have any other intentions, why didn't you say anything when you came? Why did you wait until now?" Vera asked. Ernest said helplessly, "I just want to tease you. I didn't expect you to be angry. Alright, don't be angry, Vera. I have delivered these to you and have paid forthem." It would have been fine if he didn't mention this. But after he did, Vera beceven more ashamed.
