Chapter 88
She didn't expect that her "mother-in-law" was also a foodie who had come to hunt for delicious food.
Her first impression of Cecilia was that she was beautiful and noble, so Natalie always felt a gaping distance between them. However, when she heard Cecilia's words, she instantly felt that Cecilia was very approachable. She was down-to-earth.
As foodies, they shared many common topics.
Natalie immediately began to hash over delicious food with Cecilia eagerly. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Of course, Natalie had never been to any good restaurants. The places she mentioned were generally simple street food.
"Mom, I'm telling you, the spicy hot plate sold on Cross Street is extremely delicious. First, they stir- fry vegetables and meat, and then they put them on the iron plate to mix with chili. The taste is out of this world."
While she was describing it, Natalie almost drooled.
She swallowed her saliva as she was swept over by embarrassment.
Cecilia smiled while looking at Natalie. "Do you want to eat that with me?"
Hearing this, Natalie jumped up in excitement.
Cecilia brought Natalie in her car, and they departed. When they arrived at the place, Natalie suddenly felt that something was off. She was too excited earlier on, so she never thought about this. She suddenly realized that Cecelia, who had a classy aura, looked out of place when standing next to this shabby little cart.
Would Cecilia dislike this place?
"Mom, why don't we go to another restaurant?" Natalie felt a little flustered.
"It's okay. Let's eat since we are here. Can you order for me? I don't know what's delicious here," Cecilia replied.
Natalie could only bite the bullet and ordered the food for them. It was nothing more than just telling the cart owner to fry the vegetables or meat, which were strung together with bamboo.
Natalie and the owner were old acquaintances. After all, Natalie was a regular customer.
Since the food here was easy on the pocketbook, Natalie would come here to eat every time she received her salary.
"Natalie, it seems like you've befriended an esteemed person." The owner of the stall whispered to Natalie while stealing glances at Cecilia with a nondescript expression.
He was able to recognize the car Cecilia was driving. It was a very fancy car!
"That's my mother- in- law," Natalie replied subconsciously.
The owner's mouth was hanging wide open and his face was full of disbelief.
Natalie suddenly wanted to kick herself. Well, even if she told the truth, no one would believe her.
"I lied," Natalie said again.
Only after hearing that, the owner was able to regain his composure.
He knew that Natalie must be lying. Although this little girl was pretty, from the frugal way she always ordered the cheapest food which was less than ten dollars every time she came here, how
could it be possible that she could marry into a wealthy family?
Of course, it was impossible!
The owner thought that Natalie must have become a nanny for that affluent person.
This time, Natalie was very generous. She had ordered many dishes, and they were all expensive.
The owner thought, "She's different now after becoming a nanny for a rich person, seeing that she is being so generous."
Soon, the owner completed her order. There was a small greasy table next to the little cart with a few plastic stools surrounding the table.
At first, Natalie was still very uneasy. However, Cecilia was very easy-going as she immediately sat on the plastic stool.
"Natalie, it's heavenly." Cecilia tasted it and found that it was indeed delicious.
Natalie immediately brightened up. Her "mother-in-law" was really easy-going. She was really down-to-earth!
Just as she was thinking about this, her phone suddenly rang. Natalie cast a glance at the screen of the phone and found that it was Tobias calling her.
Cecilia also peeked at Natalie's phone, and she could recognize Tobias's number.
She couldn't help but smile and said, "Natalie, it seems like the two of you are very close. Tobias is always swamped with work, yet he makes time to call you."
Natalie's face pinkened.
"Hello." Probably because of Cecilia's words just now, Natalie's voice sounded particularly shy.
"Why are you not at home?" Tobias asked in a low voice.
He just came back from the office. He knew that Natalie didn't need to go to school on weekends, so he suddenly had an idea and wanted to go home for lunch at noon.
However, he didn't expect that Natalie was not at home at this time.
In fact, even though Natalie was not at home, he could still have his lunch alone. It's just that he was suddenly not in the mood anymore.
"I'm with mom right now," Natalie replied.
Tobias' eyebrows twitched slightly. "My mother is back?"
Cecilia had returned out of the blue. She didn't inform anybody about her arrival at all.
"Yes, we're eating together," Natalie said.
"Where are you? I'll be there in a minute," Tobias Natalie told him the address, and sure enough, Tobias appeared almost instantly.
He was driving a cool Bugatti Veyron, which turned countless heads along the way. It finally stopped in front of a tiny stall.
Tobias was slightly bewildered when he got out of the car.
He saw his gracious and ethereal mother sitting with Natalie on a greasy dining table. In front of them were several plastic lunch boxes containing vegetables and meat strung with bamboo sticks, with a layer of oily chili sprinkled on the food.
Tobias' eyelids twitched.
If Natalie was the only one eating in front of that stall, he could understand that she would do that.
However, his mother was also sitting there with her, which made Tobias doubt his own eyes.
"Tobias, you're here. Come here." Cecilia greeted Tobias with a smile.
He couldn't deny that Cecilia was a born noble. Even in such a place, her aura was unrivaled.
Tobias walked over with mixed feelings.
Natalie quickly pulled out a plastic stool for Tobias. "Sit here."
Tobias looked down and noticed that there were some specks of oil stains on the plastic chair.
The corner of his mouth twitched. "I'll just stand here." "Mother, why are you here?" Tobias asked subconsciously.
"Natalie told me that the food here is delicious, so she brought me here to eat them," Cecilia answered.
Tobias subconsciously shifted his gaze at Natalie. Natalie was holding a bunch of fried sausages while smiling at him. "The food here is really delicious. Would you like to try it?"
Tobias saw that the sausages were deep-fried, so he really couldn't urge himself to eat them.
"You can have it," Tobias replied.
After Natalie finished the last few bits of food, the three of them returned to the car.
The owner of the stall stared at Natalie's back with envy as she left.
She was different after becoming a nanny in a wealthy family. Natalie, who used to look very poor, had a somewhat different aura to her now.
Natalie initially arrived in Cecilia's car, but Cecilia pushed her in the direction of Tobias' car. "Shouldn't the two of you sit in the same car together? Natalie, you shouldn't stick to me now."
Natalie had no choice but to get into Tobias' car.
"Where should we go now?" Tobias frowned slightly. "I have a two-hour break at noon. I only need to go back to my company in two hours."
