My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1674
Night of Destiny
Chapter 1674 Arenât They All Takeout?
Lexieâs heart skipped a beat in response. As she felt that Julian Gilmore despised her, her face flushed.
Damn, it doesnât feel good!
At that, Julian entered the room. Although the table was spotless, the air in the room still made him
frownâan obvious aroma that came uniquely from grilling food over charcoal still filled the space.
âW-What brings you here?â Jessie couldnât help being conscience-stricken. Julian stared judgingly grim
at a certain someone for some time before finally asking, âWhy the silence?â
âIâve just eaten grilled skewers,â Jessie answered honestly in the end.
âAnd who gave you permission to eat that kind of thing?!â Julian condemned, startling Jessie. She
immediately stood straight and drooped her head like a misbehaved child. She didnât even know what
to do with her hands.
âYouâre not allowed to eat this sort of unhygienic food with zero nutrition again, and donât even think
about eating covertly!â Julian fumed, then suddenly turned to Lexie. âAnd you, donât get them for her!â
Also frightened, Lexie tucked her neck and vowed at once, âI will never do that again!â
At that, he turned his head toward Jessie and commanded, âGo and brush your teeth.â
Jessie blinked in response. The man didnât express any disdain or the sort, but she felt that she had
been scorned beyond redemption.
Julian, on the other hand, stormed off after that, probably unable to stand the stench of grilled skewers
in the space any longer.
When Jessie heard the door close, she came out, still brushing her teeth, and exchanged a glance with
Lexie, still feeling somewhat fearful. âGoodness me! Oh, my heart. Did you see Young Master Julianâs
face? That was freaking scary. He looked so pissed off that I thought he was going to mangle me!â
âYeah! Whatâs he so upset about?! Iâve only eaten skewers, havenât I?! Not even my mom and dad
would lecture me in such a way.â Jessie brushed her teeth in frustration.
âItâs a good sign, Jessie. The angrier Young Master Julian is, the more it means he cares about you.
Think about it. It isnât his body, so whatâs the point of him getting so upset? Itâs definitely because he
cares about you!â Oh, Lexie felt it very clearly just now.
Jessie blinked and retorted with an enigmatic emotion. âEverything is only in your head!â
âOne more thing. Youâre going to act alongside him. You guys have kissing scenes. He must hope
that⦠you donât eat anything with a strong smell. After all, you two willâ¦â At that, Lexie pursed her lips
at Jessie. âYou two are going to do this.â
Jessieâs face flushed crimson in response, and she brushed her teeth even harder.
By the time she came back out, Lexie had finished the remaining food. âYoung Master Julian is
concerned about you, not me. So, Iâm finishing it all!â she sniggered.
Alas, Jessie could only satisfy her craving by smelling the aroma in the air and watching Lexie eat. But
for some reason, she couldnât help wanting to chuckle at Julianâs grumpy face.
She realized Julian was no longer as gentle as he was back in Averna and instead was even more
temperamental and stern.
Though still feeling hungry, she was officially banned from eating the rest of her dinner, so Jessie could
only starve for the rest of the night. Then, just as she was deciding to make noodles, the doorbell rang.
She answered it this time around and found Julianâs assistant carrying a takeout bag. âThis is the
dinner Young Master Julian ordered for you, Miss Silverstein.â
Jessieâs inner self tumbled with joy at that. âPlease tell him I said thanks,â she said as she took the bag
from the assistant.
Lexie had coincidentally come out of the shower. âYouâve ordered another round of takeaway?â she
asked curiously when she saw Jessie carrying a takeout bag.
âItâs not me. Young Master Julian got it for me. Join me.â
âArenât they all takeout? Whatâs the difference?â Lexie mumbled as she sat down and watched Jessie
open the bag to reveal an exquisite set of containers. Even though they were plastic as well, they
looked premium. The bowl itself cost about fifty in the market.
âWoah! Fancy!â Lexie exclaimed. Even Jessie was stumped. She never expected Julian to order her
such a fine dinner.
