The car came to one part of Huaihai Road, and the stalls were further ahead. Martin Weiss asked the driver to pull over, then he got out of the car alone. The driver said, “Mr. Weiss, I can recommend you some stalls if you want to have late-night supper here.”

“No thanks.”

Martin Weiss refused lightly. Then, he went straight ahead to the bustling place.

The food stalls looked crude to Martin Weiss. Usually, he would never come to a place like this. However, today… Finally, he caught sight of the thin figure.

Even amid the crowd, he could spot her in one glance… She was still as thin as usual. Dressed in old-fashioned brown. clothes and an apron, she looked quite different than when she was with him back then. Kyla Corbyn was cooking with her head down.

The heat from the wok surged toward her still somewhat beautiful face.

Her movements were so skillful that her slender arms could even toss the food out of the wok with a flip. cook for him but ended up making a mess he made egg fried rice and the two made do with it.

Back then, she had said with a smile, “Martin, just wait and see. I’ll cook up a feast for you every day! I’ll become a good. wife and make you fat!” After speaking, she suddenly burst out laughing.

“Why are you laughing?” he had asked, feeling puzzled.

She said, “I’m just wondering what you would look like if you’re fat. Haha, would the both of us become fat when I become a better cook?” Her cooking seemed to have gotten better now, but she was also thinner than ever.

Kyla Corbyn finished cooking the food and served it to the customer. Then, she sighed out of exhaustion and wiped away the sweat on her forehead. It could be seen that she was still faintly worried.

Although the troublemakers did not come yesterday, she was not sure if they would come today.

She thought of setting up her stall somewhere else, but there were many more people here, so she could earn a slight profit from doing her small business here.

She would earn a lot less if she moved somewhere else.

Her mother was old now and would often have some minor problems. Those medical bills might only cost a few hundred at a time, but it was not a small number if she added it to the money needed to raise Nelson.

She would need to earn more money because her expenses were only going to increase. Just then, a figure in a sharp suit caught her eye.

Another customer.

She looked up quickly, put on a smile, and said, “Sir, what do you…” She had only started speaking when the rest of the words were stuck in her throat. The smile on her face froze instantly as her face turned pale.

Martin Weiss looked at Kyla Corbyn lightly.

“I’ll have a serving of all the food you have.”

Kyla Corbyn only found that his voice felt… so close, yet so far away.

“A serving… of everything? That’s a lot, Mr. Weiss. You wouldn’t be able to finish it if you’re eating alone,” said Kyla Corbyn as she suppressed the shock in her heart

“You’ve set up a stall to make money while I’m here to buy some food. Whether I can finish it is none of your concern,” said Martin Weiss. Then, he walked over to one of the empty tables and sat down.

He was so out of place in all his glamor.

Kyla Corbyn did not expect Martin Weiss to come here and order food! ‘What does he want?” She cooked with her head down while her mind whirled with. thoughts. Plate after plate, she served the food to the small square table in front of him, and before long, plates of food had already filled up the small square table. Kyla Corbyn was glad her stall only had ten dishes in total, Otherwise, the small square table would not be able to accommodate all the food. Just as Kyla Corbyn was serving the last dish, Martin Weiss. suddenly said, “You’re a much better cook than before.”

Kyla Corbyn shivered a little.

“People change.”

If she stayed the same, maybe she would not be able to Now, she would apply a face cream that cost a few dollars when it was cold. Makeup… was almost a distant thing to her now. Before this when she wanted to learn how to cook, her hands. were covered with hot blisters. Even if the blisters had now. faded, there were some scars left, and her palms were full of calluses too. They were nothing like before. With that, Kyla Corbyn went on to serve the other customers. Martin Weiss looked at her busy figure, his eyes darkening. Even though the woman was tired, she still smiled at her customers. However… her smile seemed so humble and so different from the bright smile she used to have. Martin Weiss picked up his chopsticks to take the food in front of him and began to eat bite by bite.

He ate each mouthful slowly as if he was carefully tasting it. Kyla Corbyn tried her best to ignore Martin Weiss and just regarded him as an ordinary customer. However, as the day got later, the people on the road lessened and he seemed to stand out more.

He was still eating slowly in his seat.

He looked so elegant and gentle, forming a great contrast to his surroundings. Therefore, he caught a lot of pa**ersby’s attention. One of them was a woman wearing a revealing outfit. It was as if she had just come out of a nightclub.

She walked to Martin Weiss’s table, drew a chair, and sat down.

She said seductively, “Would you like me to join you, sir? I’ll do anything you want tonight.”

It was clear what she was implying. However, she was saying such words to Martin Weiss. How could a person like him take a fancy to a woman like her? Martin Weiss glanced coldly at her and only said, “Go away.”

He said it in a light tone, but it made the woman shudder as if she might never see the sun again if she stayed a second. longer! The woman fled the scene almost immediately. Kyla Corbyn saw this and smiled faintly. Martin Weiss had always been proud. How could he be so easily seduced? He was once drugged by a starlet who wanted to have one night of pa**ion with him, but he would rather endure the effect and leave than let her touch him. Of course, the starlet suffered a terrible end, and that night… Kyla Corbyn shook her head hard at the thought of that night.

‘Stop thinking about it. It’s only a nightmare!’

The only good thing Martin Weiss gave her was Nelson! However, after she pushed the memories away, she looked at him out of the corners of her eyes and saw his deep eyes looking at her. Kyla Corbyn stiffened immediately. For a moment, she seemed to have frozen, staring blankly at him as if she could not take her eyes off his face. His eyes were like a dense net that enveloped her. suddenly rang in her ears.

“Hey, boss lady. What is this… affectionate staring? Why don’t you stare into our eyes too…” The stench of alcohol immediately rushed into Kyla Corbyn’s. nose.

She turned her head and saw two drunks looking at her. maliciously, one of whom was about to touch her.

She quickly stepped aside, putting a distance between them.

She looked at them suspiciously. ‘These… are not the same. people who used to give me trouble. Did they… switch their people?

“Are they going to molest me today?”

“Hey, why did you dodge? You’re pretty.

Here, kiss me. I’ll pay you later and you can live a good life. You don’t have to… Burp… Set up your food stall anymore…” He burped and jumped at Kyla Corbyn as he spoke.

Kyla Corbyn dodged again.

“I’ll call the police if you do that again!” It was already two o’clock in the morning. The streets were deserted except for a few stall owners and a few pa**ersby who evidently did not want any trouble. They merely looked

“Sure… Call… the police. We’re not afraid of anyone…” He laughed and jumped at Kyla Corbyn again.

was about to dial the number when it was suddenly waved away by another man. The phone then dropped to the ground. The two drunks surrounded Kyla Corbyn, and she dodged in a panic. Suddenly, one of them wrapped his arms around her and his fat lips were about to kiss her face. Just then, a foot suddenly kicked the man who was going to kiss Kyla Corbyn. The man was kicked to the ground, but because his arms were still around Kyla Corbyn, she was about to fall with him too. An arm was suddenly wrapped around Kyla Corbyn’s waist. The next moment, she was caught in a wide embrace. A familiar scent immediately enveloped her! Kyla Corbyn stared blankly at Martin Weiss who was holding her.

‘Is he… helping me?’

She thought he would relish in her humiliation and that the more she suffered, the happier he would be. The other drunk man hit Martin Weiss. Martin Weiss pushed. Kyla Corbyn out of his arms. Then, he raised his hand and punched the man hard in his stomach. Of course, Kyla Corbyn knew Martin Weiss was a good fighter. When they were still dating, he would practice with professional fighters.

She had seen him in such circumstances. several times. Therefore, she was not worried that he could not beat the drunks.

‘I’m just surprised as to why… he’s helping me?”

Sure enough, the two drunks soon begged for mercy as they sobered up. The next moment, they fled the scene while staggering. Martin Weiss walked up to Kyla Corbyn.
