Chapter 941

When Anya arrived home, she had just wrapped up a set of Level 4 exam papers over at her boyfriend's place. Meanwhile, Mia hadn't even started on hers yet, so Anya thought she'd keep her aunt company and tackle another set with her.

Molly, in the late stages of pregnancy, had made her way back to her childhood home again. Now that her morning sickness had passed, she seemed to have an endless appetite. After dinner, she was already planning a 'little' midnight snack. "Hey, Mia, Naomi, Anya, how about we order some takeout? Fried chicken sounds good-what flavors do you all want?"

Naomi, watching the kids with a warm smile, opted out herself, "You all go ahead, I'm good."

Hansen piped up, "I'll take the sweet and spicy."

Mia, sitting cross-legged on the carpet, added, "I'll have honey mustard."

Settling down on the carpet, Anya put in her request, "Auntie, I want some popcorn chicken."

"Got it!" Molly said, practically ordering the whole menu. "What about drinks? I'm treating myself to a milk tea."

Mia spread out her papers and grabbed a pen, "Red bean milk tea with pearls for me."

Anya chimed in, "Auntie, I'll go for a fruit tea, less sugar, please."

Hansen was curious, "What's green milk tea like? I've never tried it. Get me one with extra ice."

Molly teased, "Old man, you think you can handle a cold drink this late?"

"Of course! I'm fit as a fiddle, stomach of steel. You youngsters can't compete."

Mia shot back, "As if you weren't the one who ended up in the hospital from eating ice cream."

Hansen fell silent at that.

Molly finally decided against ice, "I'll have ten lamb skewers."
