Chapter 138

Lily‘s heart skipped a beat. Jenny missed seeing them by a hair‘s breadth. Lily forced a smile, “Y–Yeah, sure!”

Looking at her stiff smile, Jenny stood in front of Lily and observed her. She pointed out,” You‘re acting strange!”

“Who‘s acting strange? You said you‘re almost back, so I came to welcome you. Since I’d have to open the door for you, I might as well check to see if you‘re here yet. My timing was perfect, right?” Lily babbled on to hide the fact that she was still nervous.

She took the bags from Jenny‘s hand and walked toward their room. “What did you get?”

“Those are mine!” Jenny insisted. “Aww, don‘t be like that!” She placed the food on the table and opened it to see what was inside.

There were sandwiches, noodles, as well as some kind of tacos. They smelled delicious, but they were food unfamiliar to Lily. Though Jenny said that she got nothing for Lily, the amount of food she bought was for two. Lily knew Jenny was just teasing her. “You said you weren‘t hungry! Are you regretting it now?” Jenny commented while trying to snatch the fork out of Lily‘s hand, but Lily was more agile. Lily ate and reminded Jenny, “Have you washed your hands? Hurry!” “Don‘t steal my food!” Jenny warned before she left to wash her hands.

Lily arranged the chairs and started opening the food containers, “Wow, what did you get? I’ve never even seen some of them before.”

“I‘m not sure either. The owner of the store I went to recommend them. Hey, I thought you weren‘t hungry?” Jenny said while swatting Lily‘s fork away.

“I‘m just trying to help. Since you‘ve bought so much food, I can‘t just turn your offer away, right?” Lily smiled brightly as she started helping Jenny put food on her plate.

“It‘s fine. I don‘t need any help!” Jenny snapped back jokingly. The two girls ate while enjoying each other‘s company. In the blink of an eye, half of the food on the table was finished.

Jenny rubbed her belly and cried, “No more, I‘ve had enough! If I eat anymore, I‘ll explode. I‘m going to shower. Could you please clean up?” “Sure, you go ahead,” Lily replied.

“Thanks!” Jenny nodded and walked toward the bathroom. However, after taking a few steps, she stopped and turned back to Lily, “Wait, something‘s not right...”

“What‘s wrong?” Lily looked at her unsuspectingly and blinked in confusion. “You said you were sleeping before I came back, right?” Jenny eyed her suspiciously. “Y-Yeah, and?” Lily answered nervously. Why was she bringing this up again? Lily thought they had moved on from it.

“If you were sleeping, why haven‘t you taken a shower or changed? Haven’t you been back for a while now?” Jenny questioned as she moved toward Lily, eyeing her up and down.

Lily unknowingly covered her chest as she cursed inside her head. She realized too late that she was still wearing her outfit from the event. It was all Alexander’s fault! He hugged her from the back when she entered the room, and they had been busy. How was she able to change or even take a shower!

“Hmm, I wonder... what were you doing before I came back? Were you secretly meeting someone, a secret lover, perhaps?” Jenny teased as she poked Lily gently. Although it was just a joke, Lily could not help but feel nervous, “What nonsense! I wish I had a secret lover! This is my first time here, and I don‘t even know anyone. I was just too tired and fell asleep on the sofa. Stop making up stories in your head!”
