Chapter 48 You'll Get Yourself Killed

After telling her she could buy anything she wanted, Adrienne filled the entire cart with goodies even before they left the first aisle.

It was effortless to make a child happy. Their emotions come and go really quickly. Adrienne had soon forgotten that she did not want anything and was filled with excitement.

"Alastair, I want the one that tastes like wine!"

"Got it."

"Get another one."

"You shouldn't eat too much of that. Why don't you choose one from the cart to put back, then we can get another wine flavored one."

Alastair was obviously more strict with his younger sister than Everleigh was. He knew that his sister would gobble all the chocolates down in just one afternoon. Then, she would complain of a stomach ache. Facing all the colorful snacks in the cart, Adrienne could not choose, so she wrapped her arms around Everleigh's leg and pleaded, "Mommy!"

Everleigh said helplessly, "Alastair, let her get another one just this one time."

"No, we've gotten enough already. Let's go." Alastair pushed the cart that was only slightly shorter than him. He walked towards the end of the aisle without looking back.

When her son was that insistent, it was out of Everleigh's hands. Sometimes, even she was a bit intimidated.

Seeing the cart being pushed away, Adrienne pouted angrily and said, "Alastair is too overbearing! I don't like him anymore!"

"You can't talk about your brother like that. Let's go, Adrienne. We'll buy more once you've finished eating everything else."

"Hmph, I don't want to be with Alastair anymore."

As she said this, Adrienne turned around and walked in the opposite direction from Alastair.

Everleigh quickly followed behind her, saying, "You can't behave like
