Hilla stared at Bruce blankly, whose expression was grave. When Hilla realized that Bruce had no intention of making fun of her, she whispered, "I was the one who was injured. Why are you so worried?"
Bruce was in a good mood and he was healthy. There was nothing to worry about!
Bruce pursed his lips and said softly, "I was worried!"
"What?"
Hilla felt strange. She thought that her ears were humming due to the smoke.
Bruce coldly glanced at her and said, "I am very happy that you cooked for , but I was worried that you got hurt. If you can’t cook, don’t force yourself. Anyway, I didn’t marry you to let you cook for ."
Bruce’s words were so touching, and Hilla felt warm and delighted when she heard the first few sentences.
But when Hilla heard the last sentence, she suddenly beca angry and rolled her eyes at Bruce. "You marry not to cook for you but to look after you. Don’t forget that your mother asked to take good care of you every day when I first entered your family."
"Wash your face, feed you, sleep with you, read the news and tell stories to you. What’s worse is that I have to wipe your body every day for hygiene!"
Hilla was resentful. She was only twenty years old, the second daughter of the Holt family. She had never served any man like this.
Bruce glanced at her and suddenly smiled. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "That’s it? You have seen my whole body. I’m not embarrassed."
"What did I do? I didn’t see your body and I wasn’t embarrassed. You are so shaless."
After scolding Bruce, Hilla pulled out her hand and ran back to her room.
Halle walked out helplessly. She glanced at Bruce and frowned, "Hilla broke the pot. It belongs to the owner. I’m afraid I need you to drive to town to buy another one."
On Christmas Eve, it was hard to buy a pot. If all the shops were closed, they would have to go to other people’s houses to beg for food.
People in the village used pot for cooking, which was different from the small pan people used in the city. Cooking with the pot was not easy, but it made the food delicious.
Halle was anxious. She thought that she would have to hire soone to cook for her when her belly got bigger. Otherwise, Hilla might starve them to death.
Bruce nodded. He gave Halle her jacket and went to get the car key.
The two of them sat in the car. Halle suddenly thought of sothing and laughed. "If Hilla knew that your car’s fuel tank was full and you lied to her last night, she would be angry with you again."
Bruce turned the car around and drove it out of the village, just in ti to et Lilian who had just returned.
Knowing Halle and Bruce were going to buy a pot. Lilian smiled and asked them to bring her one. Lilian said that it was ti to change to a new pot. It was inconvenient for her to carry a pot back from a faraway town.
Halle nodded with a smile. Lilian looked at the car that was far away and pinched her lips with a smile. "What a lucky couple. So enviable."
Lilian was only thirty years old, but the won in the village got married early. Her two children were in primary school now.
Lilian was so envious of Halle. Although she was a few years older than Halle, in her eyes, the two sisters of the Holt family were like fairies that walked out of the painting.
"Auntie, what are you doing here?"
Roger saw Lilian standing still at the entrance of the village. He followed her gaze and looked over, "Is that Hilla’s car?"
n were all fond of cars. Although Roger had only seen the car once, he recognized at a glance that it was a Maybach worth hundreds of thousands. Not to ntion their village, there was probably not even one in their small county.
Lilian ca to her senses and glanced at Roger in surprise. "You know Hilla!"
Indeed, the two sisters of the Holt family were so pretty. Moreover, there was no such surna in their village. Maybe on the first day the two sisters ca, all the young n in the village ca to see them.
She also knew that many of the young n secretly took photos of the two sisters and sent the photos to the Line chat box of the village.
Roger smiled embarrassedly. "I just knew her."
You were so enthusiastic about a person you just t. Today was Christmas Eve. Do you want to spend the Christmas in their house?
Lilian had been there before. She knew exactly what Roger was trying to do.
Lilian knew what this little boy was thinking about. She said, "You go to college in River City, right? How long is the holiday?"
Roger said, "Ten days. Auntie, did Hilla just go out?" Roger was here for Hilla, so he kept asking about her.
Lilian smiled and said, "It was her sister and brother-in-law who went out just now. Hilla is feeding dogs in the yard."
"Halle is married?"
Roger looked surprised because they all felt that it was a blessing for their village for such a young and beautiful pair of sisters to co to their village, and they never thought that Halle was married.
Lilian saw Roger being so surprised and could not help but tease him, "Why are you so surprised about that? Do you like Halle instead of Hilla?"
"Of course I like Hilla!"
After Roger said that, he imdiately realized that Lilian was teasing him. He instantly blushed and said shyly, "Auntie, don’t make fun of . It’s a cousin of mine from the nearby town who has seen Halle and he likes her a lot."
"You two are interesting. One likes Halle and the other likes Hilla. Are you trying to keep the two sisters to yourselves? Tell your cousin not to think about it. Halle’s husband is very handso, and the car is also his. He is obviously from a rich family. That is why he can let the two sisters open a factory here."
"Okay!"
Roger responded. Anyway, Hilla wasn’t married, so he didn’t care much. Only that her brother-in-law was so outstanding, if he wanted to pursue Hilla and marry her in the future, is his family good enough?
Although he was a public official in the village, Hilla’s brother-in-law was wealthy!
"If you like Hilla, do you want to help you bring it up? Such a beautiful girl, not only in our village, I’m afraid there are many people out there who like her. If you don’t make a move early, I’m afraid others will snatch the chance."
When Roger heard this, he trembled and said nervously, "I just knew her. We are not familiar with each other."
That was easy. Then Lilian took Roger to Hilla’s house.
As soon as they reached the door, Roger was so scared that he broke free of Lilian’s hand and ran away without looking back!
Hilla heard the noise and saw Lilian. Hilla smiled and said, "Lilian, do you want to co inside?"
Lilian smiled and pointed to the shadow not far away. "Roger wanted to co over to help you, but he was so shy that he ran away."
"Don’t say that I didn’t help you. You are so useless at pursuing girls!" Lilian thought.
...
Hilla wanted to make a bigger kennel for Cookie and Candy and she needed so bricks.
When she heard that Roger was going to help her, she smiled and said, "Alright, I have his phone number and I can call him back."
Lilian was surprised. She raised her eyebrows and saw Hilla take out her mobile phone to text Roger. She wondered since when they were so close. Roger said that he had just known Hilla. But now he had Hilla’s phone number.
The youngsters were no longer as reserved as they were years ago. The youngsters always beca friends very fast.
Lilian smiled. "I’m still busy. I need to go back ho now."
Hilla smiled and nodded. Roger ca over quickly after she sent a ssage to him.
"What are you going to do, Hilla?"
Hilla pointed at the kennel and said, "Cookie and Candy are too fat. This kennel is a little small for them. I want to build a bigger one, but I don’t have bricks at ho. Do you know where I can find so bricks? I want to buy dozens of them."
Roger smiled. "Yes, I do. Wait for for a while. I’ll go get so for you."
"Do you need to go with you?"
According to Hilla’s requirents, Cookie and Candy would have the most luxurious villa in this village.
Although Hilla didn’t realize it, Roger felt that Hilla was a gentle and kind girl for she liked her dogs so much.
Hilla was not only kind but also very beautiful. Roger felt that when he looked at Hilla, Hilla’s whole body was shining.
"No, you don’t have to co with . I’ll be back soon. Wait for !" After Roger said that, he ran off in a hurry.
Hilla held her chin and looked at the two dogs that were gnawing on the bones. Their clean and shiny fur had already been covered in mud.
"Where did Bruce and Halle go? Why haven’t they co back yet? Didn’t he co to take back to the Anderson’s? Why didn’t he co to apologize to ?"
"Candy, do you think Bruce really felt sorry and he ca to apologize to ?"
She pointed at Cookie at her feet. "Bruce didn’t want to make up with his ex-girlfriend, right?"
"I saw them hugging each other. What were they doing?"
"It is said that n are unreliable. I can’t go back with him so easily this ti."
"Yes, I won’t go back!"
When Bruce and Halle ca back from the town in the afternoon, it was almost dark.
When they ca back, it was at dusk, and it was Christmas Eve today. So, many people had already set off fireworks one after another.
"Hilla liked setting off fireworks the most when she was young. But later, it was not allowed in the city for years. She must be very happy to see these fireworks today."
Halle didn’t know that Bruce would actually notice her sister’s hobbies.
Although they went to buy a pot today, Bruce bought everything that Hilla liked.
She really didn’t expect that the president of a big company would actually try to learn how to use PayPal. He let his assistant teach him how to use PayPal online.
As soon as they returned ho, they heard Hilla laughing happily.
"Roger, you are really good at it. This kennel is much better than the one I built before."
Moreover, Roger had even gotten a bag of cent to build her kennel.
Roger smiled shyly. "I saw the workers build houses in the village when I was a child. The cent of the kennel was not dry. It will be more solid after several days."
"Okay, you did such a good job. The kennel is much better than the last one." "You are so smart. You drew a picture on the wall. It was really beautiful." Roger blushed. When he saw Hilla drawing, he even felt his heart stop beating.
The girl in front of him was as beautiful as a fairy. He didn’t dare to approach her, but his heart yearned for her.
He could only look at Hilla and smile.
"Halle, you’re back!"
Hilla’s eyes lit up when she saw Bruce, but she was still mad at him. She just ran to Halle and held her hand. "Look, Roger and I just built a house for Cookie and Candy. Is it beautiful?"
This kennel was very big. Hilla had drawn a small rabbit and sunflowers on it. It looked like a painting during the day, but at night, it looked even more lively.
She had such a wonderful idea and painted the kennel so beautifully.
Halle smiled and nodded. "This kennel is very beautiful and the painting is also beautiful. Your cooperation is so amazing."
After Halle said that, she turned to look at Bruce. Sure enough, Bruce’s looked very unhappy.
Hilla and Roger were both very happy to be praised. Hilla only focused on her dogs and showed them their new ho.
Halle knew Roger. "You are Mr. Emt’s son, right? Are you studying in River City?"
Roger replied politely, "Yes, nice to et you."
Then he looked at Bruce and felt that he was unfriendly. He was surprised and said carefully, "Nice to et you. Are you Halle’s husband?"
Halle was also shocked by his words, but she did not explain. Instead, she smiled and said, "Hilla is also studying in River City, but you may not be in the sa university."
When Roger heard that Hilla was also studying in River City, he was surprised. But when he was about to ask her, Halle said, "Today is Christmas Eve. I’m afraid that your family is waiting for you at ho. Thank you for helping Hilla today."
Only then did Roger realize that it was already late. If he didn’t go back now, his parents would be worried about him. He walked out the door and looked at Hilla. "I’ll go ho now, Hilla. If you need any help, just call ."
Hilla was busy showing her dogs their new ho and didn’t hear Roger’s words. She just said, "Sure!"
Halle looked at Bruce and said, "I’ll go cook now. You and Hilla can unload the things from the car."
She had better leave their problems to their own.
When Hilla heard that they had bought many things, she walked to Bruce excitedly and smiled. "What did you buy? By the way, why did Roger ask if you are Halle’s husband?"
Although she was far away, she still heard what they were talking about. She was sensitive to these words now.
Bruce looked at Hilla and said, "Because I am old!"
This was a reasonable explanation. Hilla nodded and ran to the car happily to see what Bruce had bought for her.
Bruce walked to the newly built kennel quietly and raised his eyebrows. He suddenly kicked it.
Looking at the large footprint of a male shoe on the head of the rabbit, Bruce furrowed his brows, "The kennel hasn’t collapsed, and there’s evidence on it."
