Chapter 220 Not A Match At All

On Saturday morning, Lenora arrived at Galaxy Bay at half past nine to pick up Harrietta. They then spent some time strolling around the shopping mall.

As the agreed-upon time was approaching, the two were about to head to the restaurant when Lenora received a message from Connor: Ms. Wilkin, I came across a café on the way. What would you like to drink? Then, he sent a photo of the menu over.

Lenora opened the menu before leaning forward to ask, "Hattic, what would you like to drink?"

Harrietta glanced at the menu, her dark eyes flickering with mischief as she picked out the most expensive item. Biting her finger thoughtfully, she said, "Aunt Lenora, I want three cups one for me, one for Uncle Zachary, and one for Ms. Miranda." For a moment, Lenora was rendered speechless.

This young girl is always finding new ways to swindle money out of Connor.

"All right, three drinks it is." Lenora texted Connor their order, then sent him a digital payment.

Connor replied: Ms. Wilkin why did you transfer money to me again? I told you, it's my treat today!

That night when Lenora returned home, she promptly transferred the lunch money to Connor. After all, it was her and Harrietta who had eaten the food; it wouldn't be fair to let Connor foot the bill.

Originally, Connor had no intention of accepting it. However, after Lenora mentioned he could pay for their meal on Saturday, Connor accepted.

Lenora typed out a few words: Just accept it. You can pay for lunch, so this isn't necessary.

She thought for a moment, then deleted the last sentence of her message before sending: Just accept it. You only just started your internship and haven't received your salary yet. You could use the money. A few seconds later, Connor accepted the payment and sent back an emoji of a cat's face. I'll accept this then. Thank you, Ms. Wilkin.

Lenora: No problem. By the way, you don't mind if I bring Hattie along, do you?

It took Connor a minute to verbally voice how much he minded before he finally responded: I don't mind.

Lenora could almost picture the reluctant expression on Connor's face, which made her chuckle.

"Hmph." Harrietta pouted, turning her face away.

"What's wrong, my dear Hattie?" Lenora asked as she slipped her phone into her pocket.

"You were so engrossed chatting that you completely ignored me."

"I wasn't ignoring you."

"You won't even acknowledge me now. Who knows, you might not take me out next time. You might not even want to see me in the future," Harrietta said, a hint of resentment on her young face. With a laugh, Lenora couldn't help but say, "You're such a clever little devil!"
