The Unwanted Girl Is Their Princess novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156

“You brought me snacks!” Zinnia exclaimed. At the sight of the colorful packages, her head immediately dropped in delight. She set her doll side and reached into the bag to grab a pack of potato chips.

Eyes sparkling with joy, Zinnia gazed up at him. Yannis gently ruffled her hair, a smile playing on his lips as he teased, “If I didn’t give you any, wouldn’t you be mad at me?”

Yesterday, after she learned from Roderick that she had to limit her snacks, Yannis knew she’d be upset. That very night, he arranged for a special line to make all her favorite treats just for her.

Yannis had his nutritionists develop special snack recipes for Zinnia. No bad additives, only safe and clean ingredients. He didn’t trust store snacks, so he preferred to have them made just for her.

Zinnia blinked, refusing to admit it. “I’m not mad, just a little upset.”

“Alright, Zinnia isn’t mad,” Yannis smiled.

Yannis said, “I had these specially made for you at a factory, so you can enjoy them without worry. But remember, only one pack a day, okay? For now, there are just a few flavors, but I’ll get you more soon.”

“You’re the best,” Zinnia murmured sweetly, her face full of happiness, eyes sparkling

Yannis teased, “So that’s all it takes to get Zinnia’s favor? Just a few snacks? If someone else lures you away with treats someday, I will be heartbroken.

Yannis thought Zinnia was way too easy to please. He couldn’t help worrying that someone might lure her with treats.

“Zinnia, if there’s anything you like or want, just tell me. I will get it for you. But you can’t accept them from guys, okay?” Yannis bent down and gently pinched her cheek.

She had finally gained some weight after being looked after, but after the last few days, she got thin again. She still needed proper care.

Zinnia had already torn open the bag of chips and popped one into her mouth. “Why?” she asked.

Yannis teased playfully, “Because you are too cute. There are bad people out there who might try to take you away. If that happens, you won’t see me anymore, won’t get to eat my cooking, and they might even starve you!”

“But you’re a guy too,” Zinnia said. “I was lured here by your food. Doesn’t that make you a bad guy too?”

“That doesn’t count. I’m a good guy. You can always trust me,” Yannis said with a gentle smile, happy to see how quick–witted Zinnia was lately.

“Oh,” Zinnia said. He was so handsome that his words naturally made her trust him.

Her fingers itched to touch his eyes as Zinnia looked at him. “Does that mean I can’t accept from Jackson, Charlie, or Isaac either?” she asked.

Yannis smiled and said, “Of course you can accept from them. But don’t trust those boys at school too much, Zinnia.”

‘If I told Zinnia not to accept their gifts, they’d probably come after me with fists flying,’ Yannis thought.

“Okay,” Zinnia replied.

Yannis said, “Alright, Zinnia, rest for a bit. I’m going to make dinner now. And that’s your only snack for today.”

Zinnia looked at him with her big, bright eyes and said sweetly, “Can I have some meat?”

“Alright,” Yannis replied with a warm laugh,

After Yannis went to the kitchen, Zinnia felt better after eating her snacks. Even her stomach hurt less now. She slid off the couch and followed him into

the kitchen.

“Still worried i might trick you?” Yannis teased, a playful smile on his face as he turned around with the chopped chicken ready to wash, and saw her.

come in.

“No, I wasn’t,” Zinnia said, her eyes darting. She picked up a chip and offered it to him. “Here, try a chip.”

Zinnia held a chip between her fingers. Yannis saw her flustered face, then lowered his head and bit into the chip, his lips brushing her fingertips. She quickly pulled her hand back. ‘Why does my hand feel so hot all of a sudden?‘ she wondered.

Zinnia tried to change the subject and asked, “Did you make the soothing soup?”

“Not yet. I’ll make it soon,” Yannis said as he rinsed the chicken. Thinking about Zinnia’s great medical skills and the Moon Scar Cream, he looked at her curiously and asked, “Zinnia, who taught you medicine?”

Whoever could teach Zinnia to make Moon Scar Cream and heal her broken body must be someone special. Only the Moores knew the cream’s secret, but they had all died in that explosion seventeen years ago.

Yannis remembered his grandpa’s words. The massage technique Zinnia showed was similar to that of the Moores. A bold guess formed in his mind.

Popping another chip into her mouth, Zinnia said, “My master.”

“Zinnia, what’s your Master like? How old is he? Do you know his last name? Since he saved you, I should visit him.” As he spoke, Yannis peeled and diced

potatoes.

Zinnia’s voice softened, a bit sad in her eyes. “My master was really good to me. I don’t know how old he was, or what his last name was. You don’t have to thank him. He’s already gone.”

Her voice dropped, sad because she didn’t know anything.
