Chapter 358
"You're right."
"Let's get back to work!"
Minerva took Beanie to the fresh fruit and vegetables area. Beanie's figure was so small but heinsisted on pushing the shopping cart. He took the initiative to walk in front of Minerva and said,"Mommy, Auntie Vera is good at cooking fish. Let's buy a fish and put it in the refrigerator when weget back home, so that Auntie Vera can come back to cook it, okay?"
"Okay, let's go and have a look."
"Okay!"
The mother and son stood in front of the stall and looked for a long time. Finally, they chose a veryfresh and big fish. Then, they went on to choose some beef.
Although Beanie only had round cheeks and a slender figure, he was a little super foodie. He likedto ask Vera to cook delicious food for him and he got very excited when he went to the supermarket.
After only a while, Beanie had added a lot of things into the shopping cart.
When they were abroad, it was Vera who took Beanie to the supermarket most of the time, soMinerva rarely set foot there. Even if she joined them, she only bought the daily necessities, henceshe didn't know much about fresh meats and fishes.
As for Beanie, he could quickly differentiate the fresh ones among the rest. Then, he would putthem into the shopping cart after he was sure.
When they came out of the fresh fish and meat section, the shopping cart was already full.
"Dear, did you learn all these from Aunt Vera?"
Beanie nodded and said, "Yes, Mommy. In the past, when you were looking for inspiration, AuntieVera and I would go to the supermarket to shop. Auntie Vera would then teach me what to buy andwhat to not buy."
After that, Beanie raised his chin proudly, expecting to fetch a compliment from his mother.
Minerva patted his head and praised him without hesitation, "You're so good, Beanie. Do you wantto be a cook when you grow up?"
Hearing what he said, Beanie immediately shook his head and said, "No way!"
"Why though?"
"Auntie Vera said that I need to be a celebrity in the future with my pretty face or else it'd be awaste."
Minerva was speechless.
"What did this girl teach Beanie when I was not around?" Minerva thought.
She smiled faintly and asked slowly, "Do you want to be a celebrity"
Beanie shook his head around and said, "I don't want to." Minerva smiled even brighter. "Then whatdo you want to do?"
Beanie suddenly waved his fist in the air and said, "I will be a soldier in the future and serve thecountry!"
Upon hearing this, Minerva's steps suddenly stopped. He raised his head and asked, "What'swrong, Mommy?"
"Nothing." Minerva stopped and lowered her head to pinch his chubby cheeks. "That's a goodambition. As long as it's something that you like, I won't stop you."
"Thank you! I know that you will definitely support me!"
At first, Beanie grabbed Minerva's face then he kissed her cheek without hesitation. Minerva's smiledeepened. "You... Let's go. Let's go to the second floor and get some daily necessities."
"But this shopping cart may not be able to fit anymore. Let's go pay the bill first. Only then will we goto the second floor."
"Alright."
Hence, Minerva took Beanie to the cashier to pay the bill. After that, she put the things aside andboth of them went up to the second floor together.
After arriving at the second floor, Minerva happened to see some clothes there and found a veryunique design among them. She couldn't help but walk over to take a closer look.
Beanie looked around and suddenly said, "Mommy, wait here for a while. I'll go get a shopping cartagain." "Okay, be careful."
Perhaps because Beanie was very independent, Minerva was especially at ease with him. She thenlet him go as soon as he said he wanted to.
Beanie ran to get the shopping cart at a brisk pace.
"Maddox, help me get the one on the top and put it inside the cart." Abigail pointed at the cupplaced on the top of the shelf. It was at Maddox's height, so he only needs to stretch out his hand tobe able to take it down. Maddox then asked, "Are you done yet?"
Abigail looked at him and replied, "Why are you so impatient? Since you are already in San Novia,why don't we have lunch here at noon? I will be cooking. There is nothing to buy here anymore.Let's go back downstairs to have a look at the fresh meat and vegetables."
After saying that, as Abigail turned around and was ready to walk back downstairs, she saw a cuteboy with his back against her trying to push a shopping cart all by himself and he looked adorable.
At that moment, Abigail felt as if there was something holding her back when she almost wanted totake a step forward towards the little boy.
"The elevator to the first floor is here."
A cold voice came from behind, making Abigail come back to her senses. She turned back andanswered, "I know. I'll be right there."
When she turned around again, the cute boy who was pushing the shopping cart had disappeared.Hey, he was clearly still here just now, wasn't he?
Abigail couldn't help but take a few more steps to have a look, but she still didn't see the figure ofthat cute boy.
Maddox was probably getting impatient from waiting. He pushed the cart over and asked coldly,"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Abigail shook her head. "I just saw a child who was very cute. Even the back of his headmade him look cute. I didn't expect that he would disappear in such a short time."
Upon hearing this, Maddox couldn't help but frown. "If you like it, you can give birth to one too."
Abigail glared at him. "What are you talking about? Isn't that a joke if I gave birth to a child at myage?"
After that, Abigail turned and left. Maddox followed along with no expression on his face.
Abigail, who was in front of them, said coldly, "I think you should get a wife as soon as possible. It'sgood to have a baby, so that I can have fun with it too. Anyway, I'm not busy with my work so I canhelp you and your wife take care of your child."
Upon hearing the discussion about children, Maddox's face darkened.
He suddenly thought of the time when Kimberly begged him to keep the child five years ago.
If... if she did not leave at that time, that child would have been five years old by now.
Thinking of this, Maddox couldn't help but smile bitterly. Was he crazy? Why was he looking forwardto a child who did not belong to him? Maddox closed his eyes and pinched his throbbing temple.
"Don't mention these things in the future. It's annoying."
Abigail looked back and glared at him. "Do you think I want to mention it? You're already so old. Areyou planning to learn from me to die from loneliness? That can't be done. If you really die fromloneliness,
I will not know how to face your mother when I reach heaven in the future."
"Don't mention this anymore," Maddox muttered unhappily when he heard her mention about goingto heaven.
Abigail snorted, "You never let me mention anything at all and you have a lot of demands. Peoplelike you... really have nothing except for good looks and loads of money. No wonder you are stillsingle until now."
"Nothing except for good looks and loads of money?"novelbin
Maddox was speechless.
"Let's go. Let's go back downstairs to buy some fresh fruits and meat!"
