Chapter 69
Zeph hurriedly followed Augustine, "Daddy, are we going shopping? I want to go.”
Zeph loved every kind of food in the shopping mall. Although most of the food was banned by his mother, he was still very excited by just having a look!
When they left, Zeph was holding his mommy's hand in one hand and his daddy's hand in the other. He was jumping out of the door excitedly. "Zeph, slow down.” After saying that, Vivianna tilted her head and saw that Augustine was looking at her with deep and charming gaze.
Vivianna's heart had been in turmoil since she arrived. At that moment, they looked into each other's eyes with an affection that they had never felt before.
Vivianna was the first to turn away in embarrassment. As for Augustine, a handsome smile appeared on his face which was very charming. In the mall.
Zeph was sitting on the trolley and gazing around with his huge round eyes. Augustine was pushing the trolley while Vivianna was picking fresh vegetables in the vegetable section. In the eyes of outsiders, they looked just like a family.
Augustine usually did a good job of keeping secrets, so he was not worried about being recognized in the crowd. However, many people were afraid of his innate aura even by just stealing glances at him. They were thinking that he must be a big shot.
Vivianna showed her virtuous side. She was more experienced in buying vegetables. After selecting the vegetables, they went to the meat area. She even bought the cooking materials for breakfast on the next day.
When she was checking out, Vivianna was ready to pay by her card as she was buying a lot. When she was searching for her card in the bag, a gleaming platinum card appeared in front of her.
"Use mine." It was a low and magnetic voice. Vivianna took a peek and pushed it away. At the same time, she pulled out her card and looked up at the man saying, "Use mine.”
Augustine frowned. Vivianna was still being courteous with him. At that time, the cashier had already scanned the bar codes and keyed in the prices. When Vivianna reached out her hand to hand over the card, Augustine took advantage of his
height and passed his card, "Use this." "Just use mine." Vivianna retorted
The cashier looked at the two cards and then looked at the man who handed out the platinum card. He was so noble that she couldn't help but take his card, "Let's take this gentleman's card."
Vivianna didn't dare to blame the cashier so she could only keep her card.
After swiping the card, Augustine had already took the groceries and pushed the trolley with Zeph in front to wait for her. The cashier handed the card to her and uttered, "Miss, your husband's card."
Vivianna's face burned. The cashier was mistaken Augustine as her husband? It was inconvenient for Vivianna to explain. She took the platinum card and walked toward Augustine. His ears were so sharp that he heard it. "Since it's your husband's card, you'd better keep it!" Augustine teased her.
Vivianna gritted her teeth and glared at him. “I don't want it." Then, as if the card would burn her hand, she wanted to return the card to him right away.
However, Augustine was wearing a shirt without a pocket. When Vivianna saw that he had taken it out from his trouser pocket, she put the card in it.
She put her little hand into the pocket and instinctively wanted to push the card in deeper so that it would not fall out. She tried her best to probe it deep into the pocket.
However, she accidentally touched something and she was so scared that she quickly withdrew her hand Augustine's handsome face tensed. He stared at her while gnashing his teeth and spoke, “Are you done touching?" Vivianna didn't expect that she would have touched Augustine's private part!
"You're quite bold. How dare you flirt publicly in the mall." Augustine didn't want to miss the opportunity to tease her.
Vivianna was going insane. She hastily switched her attention toward Zeph, she was afraid that Zeph would have heard it. Luckily Zeph was busy opening the can of milk. Obviously, he did not overhear her daddy and mommy's conversation.
"Mommy, open it for me." Zeph handed the bottle of milk to her. Vivianna took it. Normally, she couldn't open it with her fingers because her nails would hurt.
While she was thinking of a way, a big hand took it from her. Augustine opened it effortlessly and passed it to Zeph.
Vivianna was stunned for a few seconds. In the past four years, she had done everything by herself. If there was anything she couldn't do, she would find a way to solve it. But then, she realized that with a man by her side, things would get easier.
Like opening the can.
When she returned to her new house, it had everything. Vivianna bought a lot of sauce and put it in the refrigerator. She liked it when the refrigerator was stocked with food materials.
Vivianna didn't like to have rice for dinner so she started to prepare to cook noodles. That was her expertise. Zeph had loved it for four years. Augustine didn't have bad comment on her noodle too.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

About half an hour later, Vivianna brought out three bowls of delicious noodles. The smell of the noodles was amazing. It was sprinkled with spring onions and minced meat, looking photogenic.
"Go and wash your hands before you eat.” Vivianna
hollered.
Augustine and Zeph got up and went to the bathroom to wash their
hands together. They sat at the . table, re ing the whole city's view through. French windows. The «> crystal’chandelie was glimmering with’sparkles, which made the house look magnificent. Ehé fragrance of food in the air made the place feel more like home.
Augustine's eyes fell on the woman who had taken off the apran and sat down. A few wisps of hair fell behind her ears. She was wearing a beige T- shirt and a pair of skinny jeans. Her slim waist and long legs made him swallow his saliva
He forgot about everything on that night four years ago. After knowing that Vivianna was the one he had spent a night with, some details gradually became vivid
He remembered that night, she was the one who took the initiative. She let him go his way with her. That night, she bloomed like a rose. If... If she was also as desperate as she was now, that would be like a dream came true
"Today is our first day in our new house. We should celebrate with a bottle of wine.” Augustine curled his lips into a smile and there was a beam at the bottom of his eyes.
Wine could help with a lot of things.
"I don't drink."<[t's okay. We don't need to drinktoo much. Half of a glass will.géenough." After ~ Augustine had finished speaking,We took outa bottle of ancient redwine fronthe wine cabinet. He toak two higt+legged glasses and poured half aéup of red wine into each:
"Daddy, what about me?" "What do you want to drink?" "I want milk." Zeph remembered that he bought four bottles of milk. He felt that he could drink one more bottle of it.
"You can have it after you have finished your noodles. If you can't finish it, then forget about it." Vivianna made it clear to Zeph. She was worried that he would not finish his noodles when he had milk to drink.
"Oh! Okay!" Zeph pouted.
After Augustine sat down, he took the glass of red wine and raised it to her. “Cheers.”
