Chapter 600: Chapter 600: The Broken Bobby!
Enna Clark immediately raised both hands to surrender, “I’m going to see if there are any noodles in the kitchen, if not, I’ll call Customer Service to send some up.”
She went to look in the kitchen.
As she expected, the Presidential Suite’s kitchen refrigerator was full of high-end ingredients, but no noodles or tomatoes. There were eggs, but eggs alone couldn’t make Tomato and Egg Noodles.
She called Room Service using the hotel’s phone, and quickly, Customer Service sent up the noodles and tomatoes. They even kindly asked if she needed a chef to help out.
She could already tell that Bobby was in a mood tonight and probably wanted to eat the noodles she made herself. She didn’t ask the little guy, fearing that he would get more anxious, so she declined Customer Service’s kind offer and took the noodles and tomatoes back to the kitchen.
“Bobby, wait a minute, I’ll call you when it’s ready.”
Now only Bobby and Baron Lawrence were left in the living room.
They stared at each other.
Baron Lawrence expressionlessly picked him up and placed him next to the sofa, turned on the TV, and tuned in to Boonie Bears.
Briar and Bramble shouted on the TV.
Bobby still held a grudge about being left alone at the restaurant tonight. He didn’t even want to talk to the Dubious Man next door. For the first time watching Boonie Bears, he sat seriously and stared at the TV without turning his eyes away.
Baron Lawrence didn’t initiate conversation with him, but he also didn’t go back to his study. He sat down next to him, brows knitted as he accompanied him in watching Boonie Bears.
When Enna finished making the Tomato and Egg Noodles and came out, she saw the large and small sitting with serious faces watching Boonie Bears on the sofa. She couldn’t help but smile at the corners of her mouth, placed the bowl on the table, and called out, “Bobby, time to eat.”
“Oh.” Bobby was already engrossed in the show and reluctantly moved his eyes away, got up from the sofa, and headed for the dining room.
He didn’t need Enna’s help and climbed up the chair himself and picked up the chopsticks.
The noodles had just come out of the pot and were steaming hot.
Enna reminded him, “It’s too hot, eat slowly.”
“Mm-hmm… ”
He must have been really hungry, as he quickly finished a large bowl of noodles and patted his round belly contentedly. He said to Enna, “Woman, I want to sleep with you tonight.”
“No.”
Before Enna could answer, a powerful voice had already cut in. Who else could it be but Baron Lawrence?
Bobby had already made up his mind to sleep with his woman tonight. He pushed out his little belly, “I want to sleep together.”
His eyes shifted cunningly, and before Baron Lawrence could speak, he pre-empted, “How about this? I’ll give you a riddle. If you can answer it, I won’t sleep with Enna. If you can’t, I’ll sleep with Enna. How about that?”
The three words ‘how about that’ were like a provocation.
Baron Lawrence’s eyes narrowed, but before he could agree, Bobby had already started asking his question in a babyish voice, “One night, you’re walking alone and come across a single plank bridge. As you walk to the middle of the bridge, you find a wolf staring at you from the other side. You want to run back, but to your horror, a ghost is following you onto the bridge. At that moment, you pull the bow from behind you and are about to shoot when you remember you only have one arrow. So, do you shoot the wolf or the ghost?”
