Departure with a Belly Chapter 590



Chapter 590 Would You Like a Taste

Why is Erik here? Summer’s eyes had been showing signs of impatience initially, but she stiffened when she realized the person outside the door was that man. I’m still in my teddy bear pajamas and haven’t washed my face. After a night of sleep, my face is undoubtedly oily. Shoot! Do I have eye boogers? At this thought, she reached up and touched the corner of her eyes. Phew! Thankfully, there aren’t any

Nonetheless, she felt uneasy about doing nothing and wondered if she should hurry upstairs, clean up, and get dressed before he entered the room. However, as she got to her feet, Jane returned to the room with Erik

Your boss is here, Summer.” 

Hello, everyone.The man’s cold voice echoed throughout the room

Everyone, including Zach, who had been invited over for matchmaking, stared at Erik with disbelief in their eyes from the moment he stepped into the room. After all, Erik was a handsome man who exuded such a powerful aura that his mere existence caused an invisible sense of intimidation to fill the entire living room

Who would be able to ignore such a man

When Summer’s eyes met Erik’s, she instinctively twirled her hair in embarrassment. Why is he here? Why doesn’t he notify me before he arrives? With these thoughts racing in her mind, she pursed her lips helplessly and returned to her seat

Then, he took the seat across from her. He had no choice since it was the only unoccupied seat in the room

On the other hand, she felt awkward realizing he was sitting directly across from her and wanted to bury her face in her knees. If I had known he was coming, I would have changed and cleaned up instead of showing up as I am now… 

You are Summer’s employer?While Summer was deep in thought, Zach, sitting beside her, broke the silence. and began talking to Erik

After hearing this, she glanced at Zach in surprise. Is this man trying to cozy up to Erik

While she was midcontemplation, he said, Hello, my name is Zach. I work at” 

He rattled off a long and complicated company name that she didn’t pay attention to or understand, but all she 

heard was a cold grunt of acknowledgment

At this moment, Summer couldn’t resist the urge to look up at Erik, and they unexpectedly locked gazes. She 

noticed a questioning look in his eyes as if he was wondering about her relationship with the man sitting next 

to her

Suddenly, Zach piped up, Oh, right. I haven’t even told you who I am. I’m here for my date with Summer…” 

She had not reacted to a single word he had said until now, but his words finally caused her to lift her head, revealing her fair face to those around her. Then, she stared at him in disbelief. Today is our first meeting. How can it be a date? He made it appear as though we were already dating

“A date?As he said this, Erik turned to stare directly into Summer’s face with a gaze as intense as a spotlight. When he saw that something was off about her eye and expression, he quickly realized what was going on. Hence, he asked, You just met today?” 

11:31 Mon, 24 Jul GOD 

白肉:83% ach nodded, somewhat embarrassed. Yes. We only met today, but I have fallen in love with her at first sight. It hink she’s an amazing and beautiful woman, so I’ve decided to date her.” 

ummer stared at him in utter disbelief. Ha! Is that something he can decide for himself? So, he decided,and ow I have to date him? How impressive he thinks he is! Unfortunately, she couldn’t voice this sentiment aloud ecause their elders were also present. If not for them and the group of relatives in the room, she might have >udly scoffed and rolled her eyes before admonishing him

You’ve decided?Erik’s gaze finally shifted from Summer’s face to look at Zach. You decided on your own?ach of his words had a seductive, alluring quality because of how slowly he had said them

tunned, Zach stared at him for a moment before nodding. Yes.” 

When Jane heard that, her face clearly twisted with displeasure. She had anticipated a good, trustworthy man, ut she hadn’t bargained for someone with his mindset to be introduced as her daughter’s potential match. He ust decided on his own. Does he believe himself to be an emperor from bygone dynasties? Is he under the mpression that the girl he has feelings for must become his wife

iuddenly, a strange tension pervaded the room as Summer’s relatives were also rendered speechless by Zach’s 

leclaration

Then, the youngest boy among them immediately turned to Zach and said, Hey, sir, if you like my sister, you 

hould be sincere when you ask her out on a date. You should also have asked her what she wanted. We have not even started the first step of courtship, yet you’ve just decided to date her. Have you ever asked her if she ikes you?” 

The boy was her cousin on the paternal side of the family, and because the older members of his family were absent, no one reprimanded him for what he had just said

His words seemed to have flipped a switch among the younger family members, as someone else chimed in, Don’t you think your declaration was disrespectful to her? Aunt Jenny, just where did you find this guy? He doesn’t look like he’ll be a good match.” 

On the other hand, Zach had not expected a simple statement from him would lead to attacks on his character. Furious, he shot to his feet and barked, Is this how the Jones Family treats their guests?Then, he turned to ook down at Summer and stated, I only like you because I saw that you’re pretty without makeup, Summer. I would never have liked you otherwise. Still, your relatives are a little too much. Don’t you think so?” 

After hearing this, she just stared at him in disbelief

Hey! What do you mean by saying you only like her because she’s pretty without makeup? Who do you think you are? You have pretty dreams for someone as ugly as you are. Do you think your looks are good enough for 

her?” 

You have gone too far! There is no way she could easily find a man to marry at her age anyway. If I had not overlooked her age, no man would be visiting.” 

The entire ruckus made Summer’s head pound. She glared at Zach, drew a deep breath, and then let loose with the rage building up inside her since she had been rudely woken up earlier that morning. Are you done yet? If yes, get out!Her explosive shout made everyone’s faces go pale

Zach had no idea she could react in such a manner, and he fumbled for words as he pointed at her in shock. Y- 

You harpy!” 

Ha!Summer grabbed the glass of water on the table and aimed it at him. I can be worse. Would you like a 

taste of it?” 

Fearing she might splash the water at him, he sprinted out of the house, cursing at her loudly

Meanwhile, Jenny watched the entire scene play out in awkward silence. Everything was going so well just a few minutes ago, so how did things end up like this? JustHow could that man’s character switch at the drop 

of a hat

Jenny, what kind of date did you set up for Summer? Can you find a better man next time?one of the relatives 

asked

Yeah! While Summer is getting on in years, she certainly doesn’t act her age. If there are no eligible men her 

age or older/we can consider younger men.” 

Summer, unable to stand being in the room for another second, promptly retreated to her room
