chapter 10 Steak and Roujiamo

Seeing that Maxwell looked like he was about to get angry, all the rich and young people did not dare to speak. A good man never suffered any immediate loss! They didn’t have the same experience as this kind of country bumpkin! Avery put her hands on her hips. "I really don't deserve it for Abigail! She got entangled with an uneducated country bumpkin like you! Humph! Let's go!" After saying that, she, Jaxon, and the others left angrily. The original intention was to let Maxwell recognize the gap between reality and create opportunities for Jaxon and Abigail, but in the end, it was embarrassing! … "Hey..." Abigail sighed. "Maxwell, you shouldn't be like that." "What? Do you think I'm selfish too? Do you think I should take action earlier?" "That's not true. I think what you said just now is too disrespectful to Avery and the others." Maxwell smiled. This girl was okay, she was not stupid. "Face is given by others, face is lost by oneself, they disgrace themselves, what can I do?" Abigail said dissatisfied, "Avery is my friend after all! You are embarrassing me like this! Don't you consider my face?" Maxwell laughed. "It's true that I was negligent. My wife's face must be considered. I won't do it again!" "Don't call me wife!" "Okay, wife!" "Boring!" Abigail regained her cold expression and walked straight to the parking lot. Maxwell suddenly felt that Abigail was a little cute. He laughed and followed her. "It's getting late. Let's go eat first. I'm very tired from fighting. I'm starved to death." Abigail didn't answer but still drove to a nearby restaurant. After entering the restaurant door, Maxwell looked around and marveled, "This is the legendary Western restaurant. It's quite expensive, right?" Abigail frowned, what a country bumpkin! "This is a high-end place, pay attention to the image, and don't look around!" "Don't look at other people's tables! It's so rude!" "Oh! There are so many things!" Maxwell frowned and said, "Why don't we leave? I think the ramen stall I just passed by is quite good. Let's go eat ramen and ask for a double portion of the meat slices!" Abigail ignored him with a cold face. Would the dignified eldest daughter of the Jerome family go to a roadside ramen stall to eat noodles? This was not the way to embarrass someone! When ordering, Abigail simply ordered without asking Maxwell. She just ordered a double portion of steak for him. When the main course was served, Abigail was about to teach Maxwell how to use tableware, but she saw him holding a fork in his left hand and a knife in his right hand as he seemed to be cutting steak. "Have you ever eaten Western food?" Abigail couldn't help but ask. "I haven't eaten it. But everyone else handles the utensils this way." Abigail breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Maxwell would use a fork to pick up a whole piece of steak and stuff it into his mouth. It would be too ugly. There was really nothing to talk about with Maxwell, so Abigail focused all her energy on the meal and ate in silence. Halfway through eating, she raised her head and froze. Maxwell actually cut the steak into small pieces and sandwiched it between two pieces of bread. It was delicious. Abigail's mind was buzzing. This was steak! Not bun! This country bumpkin was so embarrassing! Maxwell seemed not to notice the strange looks around him. He ate up the bread in a few mouthfuls and smiled at Abigail. "Bread and beef, isn't that what a hamburger looks like?" Abigail took a deep breath. She shouldn't have brought him here! She should just buy two hamburgers and throw them to him! "You'd better stop eating like this!" Abigail said coldly to Maxwell, then lowered her head and continued to eat. She just wanted to finish eating and leave quickly and didn't want to show up here. However, contrary to expectations, as soon as she finished her steak, a man wearing a brand-name suit came to the dining table. "Abigail! I sent you so many messages, but you didn't reply to any of them. Isn't that too disrespectful to me?" "Levi Carlyle?" Abigail frowned slightly. Levi was the only son of the Carlyle family in Delington. The two met at a cocktail party last year. During this year, Levi had been chasing Abigail, but Abigail had no interest in him and was even a little disgusted. Meeting him now, Abigail felt so unlucky! Levi smiled slightly. "My family owns a lot of shares in this restaurant, and I happened to come over today to take a look. I didn't expect you to be here. It seems that we are quite destined!" "I don't think so!" Abigail replied coldly. If she had known that the Carlyle family owned this restaurant, she would not have come! "Abigail, don't always treat me like this. You and I are well-matched, so you must give me a chance to date." Maxwell put down the bread in his hand and coughed lightly. "Who are you?" "Eat your food! Don't interrupt! Be careful of losing your job!" Levi continued without even looking at Maxwell, "Abigail, how can you let a driver sit with you to eat? This driver is so ignorant. It’s better to change the rules.” "He's not the driver!" "I am her husband!" Maxwell said solemnly. "What?" Levi's face was shocked but soon turned into sarcasm. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could you be Abigail's husband? You are a rustic..." "He's right!" Abigail said without any tone, "We have already received the certificate, so you don't have to worry too much!" "You're kidding!" Levi didn't believe it at all. "This country bumpkin looks like he's from the countryside! How can he be worthy of you?" "Abigail likes my style!" Maxwell said sarcastically, "Anyway, at least I am a healthy person. Unlike you, a terminally ill guy shouldn't worry about getting a wife!" Levi looked angry, "Who is terminally ill?" "Of course it's you!" Maxwell pointed at Levi. "Now, your gums bleed every morning, you have severe oral ulcers, your hands and feet are cold in the afternoon, and you have trouble sleeping at night. You are awakened by the slightest sound, and you often feel so weak all over, and you're so tired from going up to the second floor! Go and get checked quickly, there’s a big problem with your immune system, you must have a malignant tumor!” "Ah?" Levi's face was pale. The symptoms mentioned by Maxwell were completely consistent. For a moment, he was frightened by the word "malignant tumor". Maxwell ignored Lev and looked at Abigail, "Are we leaving?" "Let's go!" … When they arrived at the parking lot, Abigail asked, "Why did Levi have such a big reaction?" "It's okay to be scared. People are almost like that when they find out they have a terminal illness." "Didn't you scare him?" "Of course not! I know medical skills, and I can tell at a glance." "Medical skills?" Abigail still couldn't believe it. "In our village, whether it's people or animals, I can cure the disease with medicine." Maxwell lazily leaned on the seat and yawned. "I have discovered in the past two days that there are not many people in your city who are not sick!" "Fortunately, you don't have any serious health problems." "But your best friend, let her go to the hospital for a checkup!" Abigail frowned slightly. "Avery? What is she checking?" Maxwell pointed to his chest. "Breast! Her problem is not hyperplasia anymore, it has developed into a cyst. If the hospital can't cure it, ask her to find me for treatment." "How do you treat it?" Maxwell shook his hands and said, "Massage." Abigail's face sank. This country bumpkin actually had an idea for Avery! Yes! He was just a scumbag who went to the bar to find an affair! In an instant, the little positive opinion Abigail had towards Maxwell disappeared.
