Chapter 620 So Sweet

Chapter 620 So Sweet

"The medicine smells so bad, it must be very bitter. Take it away. I don't want to eat bitter things."

Martha pinched her nose and took two steps back, standing behind her son.

Jimmy nodded seriously, "Daddy, I think Mommy is right, this medicine smells so bad that it must bereally bitter."

"Okay, you two can talk some more."

Stefan said before leaving the room with the medicine in hand.

It wasn't until the door was closed again that Martha and Jimmy looked at each other in dismay.

They were surprised that Stefan gave in so easily. x

After Jimmy regained his senses, he hesitated and looked at his mother.

"Mommy, although the medicine smells bad and might taste bitter, but as the old saying goes, goodmedicine tastes bitter, why don't you go and take some medicine?"

"No."

Martha resolutely rejected Jimmy's request, turned around and walked to the sofa to sit down.novelbin

"That medicine is so bitter, I don't want to take it."

In fact, she knew that Stefan would not just give up persuading her into drinking the medicine.

He would definitely be back.

Jimmy looked at his mommy hesitantly, thinking about how to persuade his mommy.

Martha glanced at Jimmy lightly, "Don't worry, your father won't give up so easily."

After a while, there was another knock on the door as expected.

Martha glanced sideways at her son, and that look clearly said, "I told you so".

Jimmy turned to look in the direction of the door, and a soft voice sounded in the room.

"Come in."

The door opened, but the person who came this time was not Stefan, but Bianca.

Jimmy looked at the direction of the door with eyes full of shock, and his voice was raised, "GrannyBianca."

"Hi," Bianca responded lovingly, then turned to look at Martha hesitantly, not knowing whether sheshould say it or not.

Seeing Bianca's troubled look, Martha asked puzzledly, "Bianca, what happened?"

"Oh, you'll find out when you go downstairs and have a look."

Bianca sighed, turned and walked downstairs.

Jimmy watched Granny Bianca's slowly disappearing figure, and frowned suspiciously.

"What happened, Mommy? Why did Granny Bianca ask us to go downstairs?"

Martha shook her head in doubt, "Let's go downstairs and have a look to see what happened."

"Good idea."

Jimmy nodded in agreement, walked to his mommy and took his mommy's hand before walkingdownstairs together.

When Martha and Jimmy stood in the living room, their eyes were full of shock.

At this point, the living room was filled with candies of different sizes and colors.

All the candies that were sold on the market were available here.

Martha turned her head in shock, looking at Stefan who was directing others to put down thecandies, "Stefan, what are you doing?"

He frowned slightly, and looked at her confidently.

"Didn't you say the medicine was too bitter?"

At this moment, Martha finally understood why Bianca had that expression just now.

Jimmy, who was standing next to her, widened his eyes in surprise, "Daddy bought these candiesfor Mommy?"

Stefan nodded slightly, with a smile on his lips, and looked fondly at Martha.

"Your mother told me that medicine is very bitter. Now that there are so many candies here, yourmother will not be afraid of taking bitter medicine."

Martha froze in place when she heard that.

She didn't want to take bitter medicine, but she didn't let Stefan buy so much candy.

Jimmy looked at the people who were still carrying candy into the hall, and felt the power of moneyfor the first time.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the door, interrupting the thoughts of Martha andJimmy.

"Mr. Harrison, the living room can't fit any more candy, where should we put the rest?"

Stefan frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about where to put other kinds of candy.

Martha snapped back to her senses, and hurriedly stopped Stefan from making the next move.

"Enough, Stefan, these candies are enough."

"OK, Mrs. Harrison," Stefan said jokingly, then he turned to look at his subordinates standing at thedoor.

"Take the rest away."

"Yes."

The subordinate standing at the door responded respectfully, turned and left the Doyle Manor.

Stefan walked towards Martha, stopping in front of the still dazed woman.

"There are so many candies here. It shouldn't be hard to take medicine now?"

"I..."

Martha opened her mouth to speak, but didn't know what to say.

Before she fully regained her presence of mind, Stefan reached out and pulled her to sit on the sofanext.

He took the medicine on the tea table, and began to feed Martha the medicine patiently.

When Martha took the first sip of the medicine, she frowned indiscernibly.

Soon, she finished taking the medicine.

Just as she was about to speak, someone stuffed an orange-flavored candy into her mouth.

The sweetness of the candy diffused in her mouth, making the bitterness in her mouth from takingthe medicine subside a bit.

Stefan looked at the dazed look of Martha, and stretched out his hand to stroke her hair in a goodmood.

"So cute!"

Martha snapped back to her senses, and glared at the man beside her.

She was just throwing a tantrum and didn't want to take the medicine.

Who would have thought that he would send so many candies just to make her take the medicine?

However, this feeling seemed to be quite good.

Her mouth curled into a chuckle, yet suddenly she put on a serious face again and looked atStefan..

"Mr. Harrison, you're really rich!"

"If I wasn't rich enough, how could I provide for you?"

Stefan replied with a smile, his eyes full of affection.

Jimmy, who was standing on the side, regained his senses.

Seeing his parents showing affection for each other in the living room, Jimmy felt he wasunnecessary here.

He reached out and took a candy, peeled off the candy wrapper, and threw it into his mouth.

Soon, the sweet taste spread in his mouth, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly.

"Come on, are you showing PDA?"

Stefan gave his son a glance. Without feeling embarrassed at all, he said calmly, "You have to getused to it, after all, this is just the beginning."

Martha blushed when she heard that.

The sweetness from candy couldn't compare to how much warmth filled up inside her heart rightnow.

In the kitchen.

After Bianca went upstairs and called Martha and Jimmy downstairs, she hid in the kitchen.

Maxwell, who were also standing in the kitchen, heard the conversation clearly.

There was a smile on the corner of Maxwell's mouth, and his deep voice echoed in the kitchen,"Stefan has done a great job."

Bianca smiled helplessly, and said with some melancholy, "I just don't know where to put all thesecandies. They can't be placed in the living room forever."

"It's okay to leave them there. It makes people feel good just by looking at them," Maxwell said witha smile, only feeling very content.

Bianca shook her head helplessly, then turned around and took out the washed dishes from thedishwasher to wipe them clean one by one.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Maxwell leaving the kitchen and heading towards the livingroom.

She thought it would be nice to be with him like that for the rest of her life.

After a while, Maxwell, who had just left, went back.

Bianca stopped what she was doing, and turned to look at Maxwell in doubt, "Are you back forsome water?"

With a smile on his lips, Maxwell shook his head slightly.

Just when Bianca was puzzled, he stretched out his clenched fist and spread his palm.

"This is for you," Maxwell said softly.

Bianca's eyes fell on the candy in Maxwell's palm, and she was slightly dazed.

She hadn't had candy for years.

Her eyes were red rimmed. She smiled and took the candy from Maxwell's hand, peeled its wrapperoff, and ate it.

So sweet.

In the evening, the Doyle family had a sumptuous dinner together.

Sitting in the living room, the whole family chatted for a long time before going back to their roomsto rest.

After taking a shower, Martha was lying on the bed reading a book. At this moment, the door thatwas closed was suddenly pushed open, and a small head poked in from the outside.

"Mommy."

Hearing her son's soft voice, Martha got up quickly, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Mommy's concerned eyes, Jimmy hurriedly pushed open the door and ran into the room,and immediately made the bed.

He buried his little head in Mommy's arms, and said softly, "Mommy, can Jimmy sleep with you atnight?"

Before Martha could answer, Stefan, who was wrapped in a towel, stood at the door of thebathroom and gave the answer sharply, "No."

Jimmy raised his eyes to look at his father, and then turned to look at Mummy with aggrievedexpression.

"Mommy, Daddy is so fierce!"
