At the apartment.
Charlotte was craving shrimps, and Summer wanted t o head to the supermarket downstairs. When Mark, who was in the study, heard her, he switched off his computer and wanted to go along with her.
However, it was not safe to leave Charlotte alone at home. Thus, they all went to the supermarket together, just to get a kilogram of shrimps.
Charlotte sat on the trolley's seat; she spread out her arms and giggled just like a little chirping bird.
Mark was dressed in a V-neck sweater and grey casual trousers. They accentuated his tall figure. Paired with cotton slippers, he looked relaxed and casual.
Regardless of his outfit, it did not affect his good look and elegance in the slightest. He still invited a lot of attention; Summer, on the other hand, was busy shopping for food ingredients.
Summer paused when she passed by the lingerie section. Somehow due to pregnancy or other factors, her breasts had grown larger. Hence the bras that she had previously bought were no longer fit. They were uncomfortable to wear now because they were too
small and tight for her.
She browsed through the rack of bras with her fingers. She was selective that she would filter out those with thick foam, lighter colors, and designs that could make her look older than her age.
Mark, on the other hand, loafed around the lingerie section too. He moved around and sometimes browsed through the racks.
Finally, his eyes landed on a red, sheer nightgown, and he imagined how it would look on her.
Summer picked a black one with a plain design. After getting it checked, she brought it to the cashier. Just a s she was about to pay, a bright red and sexy lingerie was placed before her, and a familiar voice came. "
Add this to the bill..."
She could not help but twitch her brows. "Are you buying this for yourself?"
"No, it’s for you..." He raised a brow and even asked the cashier, "What's her size?"
At that moment, Summer blushed till her face was crimson. She raised her hand and secretly pinched him on his arm. "Put it back immediately, or else, you wear it yourself!" Comment by Chein Ling Foo: Original:
Besides, they were not the only customers; the queue had already become long, and many customers started to complain.
The cashier asked hurriedly, "Miss, do you still want this? If you do, please let me scan it."
Although it was not loud, it was enough to be heard by the few customers who were next in line. Faint laughter drifted into Summer's ears, making her feel even more embarrassed. She raised her brow and answered quickly to rid herself of the predicament," Yes!"
Mark snickered at her answer. Irritated, she secretly lifted her foot and stomped on his.
He snorted painfully. She picked up the bag from the cashier and left immediately, without waiting for him.
They walked side by side as they left the supermarket. Charlotte was still in Mark's arms, clinging to her newly bought puzzles, bricks, and other toys.
When Summer saw him staring at the bag she was holding, she snorted, "Are you going to stare until a hole burned through it? So what if I put it on, do you think you can have your way with me? What you're doing now is looking for trouble!"
