“You want to eat?” “Absolutely! Lubba Pump has the best shrimp in town!” Without turning her head, Naomi quickly gave her honest opinion. Only after she finished talking, did she realize that it was Mister Daddy asking her. Then she remembered the experience of eating Creek’s Barbecue with him and withdrew her eyes mournfully. “Forget about it. Let’s go back.” That was her brain talking, and at the same time, her stomach was growling too.
Looking at how unhappy Naomi was, Jack frowned. ‘Just because I know what she likes and what food she likes to eat!’ Suddenly, his mind appeared to be thinking of what his cheapskate nephew said. Subsequently, he said, “Sean, let’s go there.” “What? You really want to eat it?” Naomi was so shocked by his decision that she widened her eyes.
A few minutes later, Jack was sitting together with Naomi on the dirty plastic chairs while wearing an expensive bespoke suit in the outdoor diner. There were cars passing by and people were wearing very casual and rugged clothes. Everything just emphasised how out of place Jack was.
“It’s too dirty here. Let’s just go back to the mansion.” Naomi looked at Jack worriedly. She felt Jack was like a prince who had become a civilian. This place did not suit him and it was not a place for him to be at.
“Nevermind.” With a stone-cold face, Jack started to pull some tissues out to wipe the table and cutlery.
‘He really dislikes this place but forced himself to stay.’ Naomi curled her lips into a smile and felt warm and touched. She knew Mister Daddy was accommodating her.
“Hello, what would you like to have today?” The boss came over with the menu.
Naomi looked at the menu with excitement. It had been a tiresome and intense day for her. She wanted nothing else than to enjoy her dinner and relax her soul.
“I’ll have the baked shrimp with cheese, grilled shrimp in sriracha hot sauce, deep-fried shrimp, and…” Naomi started to order the food she wanted to eat. Sean who was sitting at the next table immediately interrupted when he overheard the second dish Naomi ordered, “Miss Naomi, you can’t…”
“I can’t what?” Naomi looked at Sean curiously while Jack glared at Sean and was warning him not to continue talking.
“Er…nothing.” Thus, Sean did not dare to say what was in his mind. He just looked at Jack while feeling worried for him. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“Alright, that’ll be all!” Naomi told the boss.

Not long after, their food was served. “Mister Daddy, thank you for eating here with me. These are for you!” Naomi quickly passed the dishes and put some shrimp onto Jack’s plate. “This is their most popular dish, the grilled shrimp with sriracha hot sauce. Try it.” Her eyes were sparkling with joy as she could not wait to share her favorite food with Jack. He looked at the shrimp that was covered with sriracha hot sauce. His hesitation disappeared as soon as he saw the anticipation on Naomi’s face. 1
Following that, he picked up the shrimp and tasted it. “How is it? How is it?” Naomi asked excitingly. “Delicious.” Underneath the table, Jack was clenching his hand tightly into a fist while he answered Naomi’s question relaxingly. “Oh yes! Take more. Their baked shrimp with cheese is very nice too!” Naomi acted like a happy hamster and put more food onto Jack’s plate. He clenched his fist so tightly that the vein on his arm was becoming more and more tense, and yet he did not stop Naomi. In the end, he finished eating all of the shrimp Naomi gave him without a sweat. There were bound to be some events happening at Lubba Pump Shrimp, it could be a birthday celebration or a farewell party. While Naomi was feasting on the shrimp, she was also enjoying the live band in the diner. Suddenly, a man from the other table went up the stage and sang a love song, dedicating it to his girlfriend. Naomi was
one of the crowd cheering for the man. As he finished the song, the man gave his girlfriend a rose. Under the gaze of the audience, he hugged his girlfriend and kissed her. The live band continued to sing another love song dedicated to the lovely couple. The entire diner was soaking in a very happy and loving atmosphere. Naomi supported her chin with one hand and looked at the loving couple while feeling envious of them. “Wow…they are so sweet.” Jack looked at how envious Naomi was with his dark and deep pupils. Suddenly, he also walked up to the stage…
