Chapter 26
Food shouldn’t be wasted. Kimberly promptly regretted eating too fast earlier.
Her checks puffed up as she watched them eat.
Inwardly, she thought, “It’s not my fault. It’s easy to get hungry as I’m pregnant with twins. Looks like they will be little gluttons in the future.”
She sat in her chair, salivating without getting to eat anything.
She mused, “I want to go to the restroom. It’s a perfect opportunity to get out and stroll around. Perhaps I’ll get to stuff in two pieces of pastries later.”
Thus, Kimberly told her friends about her intention. As Olivia wanted to keep her company, she made to get up.
Before Olivia could get to her feet, Kimberly placed both hands on her shoulder and pushed her back into her seat.
Kimberly said confidently, “Enjoy the delicious food. I might be pregnant, but I can walk. Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon.” With that said, she strode out.
Alas, Kimberly had always been bad with directions.
After walking for a while, she still couldn’t find the restroom.
She then spotted a server and hurried ahead to ask him where it was.
Finally, she arrived at the restroom successfully.
After relieving herself swiftly, she was about to head back when she realized something.
“S hit, I forgot to see which room we were in,” she thought. “Fortunately, I was smart enough to bring my phone out. Otherwise, I’d be doomed.”
She was about to give Vincent and the rest a call when someone called her name.
To her surprise, the person called her “Katherine” instead of “Kimberly.”
She was in Dellmoor, not Norham.
Astonished, she turned in the direction of the voice and spotted a gentleman.
It was none other than Jaxon Nightingale, the man who loved Olivia with a vengeance before breaking her heart into a million pieces.
When their gazes met, Jaxon could barely hide his surprise.

Chapter 26
A while ago, he found the figure familiar and was reminded of Katherine.
He had no idea it really was her.
He mused, “That means Olivia’s eating here, too.”
Previously, Katherine would’ve stiffened and been at a loss.
However, Kimberly greeted the man warmly, “It’s been a while, Jaxon.”
As expected, Jaxon took the chance to ask about Olivia. “I can’t believe I ran into you in Dellmoor. Is Olivia here for a meal, too?”
Kimberly wasn’t a fool, so there was no way she’d reveal anything about Olivia easily.
Back then, she saw how dejected Olivia was after their breakup.
She tamped back the urge to teach Jaxon a lesson for disappearing irresponsibly without leaving any message behind.
“No. I’m here with other friends,” Kimberly told him solemnly as her pretty amber glittered under the light.

“I don’t want my friends to wait. See you next time, Jaxon!” After saying that, she fled the scene. She refused to spend a minute more with someone she despised.
Recalling the decorations she walked past when she came out earlier, she traced her footsteps back and also called Vincent to make sure she was going in the correct direction.
Vincent wasn’t surprised, for she was known for being a klutz.
After finding their private room, Kimberly rushed inside and plopped down on her seat. She picked up her glass of orange juice and gulped it down.
Seeing that, Olivia asked, “Was there a wolf after you? Why were you running?”
“You’re right. That person is worse than a wolf, though.”
She leaned closer to Olivia and whispered in her ear, “I ran into Jaxon Nightingale earlier in the restaurant. I don’t think he knows about Christopher and me, though. They aren’t related in any way, so he won’t reveal my whereabouts, I guess.”
“What a small world. I can’t believe she bumped into that man here,” Olivia marveled.
Vincent was displeased to see them talking to each other secretly, for they had ignored him.
Chapter 26
“You can chat all you like back home. How could you ignore a hunk sitting here?” Vincent was always confident in his looks.
Kimberly immediately understood what he meant. “Yeah, you’re the hottest man in Dellmoor!”
If her other brothers heard this, they would definitely protest in their group chat.
After filling their tummies, they decided to go shopping.
This was their first shopping spree in Dellmoor.
First, they went to a shopping mall under Larson Corporation. Kimberly announced, “Pick anything you like. Everything’s on me today.”
After what happened during the site inspection at the amusement park this morning, Kimberly didn’t want to tire herself out this afternoon.
She told herself that the time spent observing the site didn’t matter.
Before their arrival, she gave Frederick a call to inform him that she would be arriving at the shopping mall under Larson Corporation soon so he could make the necessary arrangements.
The super VIP store immediately cleared the area after receiving the call from the CEO’s assistant, and the sales assistants arranged the display items hastily.
Frederick was waiting at the door when Kimberly and the other two arrived at the mall.
They were flanked by a bunch of people as they took the VIP elevator to their destination.
The super VIP store was divided into three sections – the men’s section, women’s section, and kid’s section.
They went on separate ways to get what they wanted.
