Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 83

Samuel liked shrimp. Jessica said with a smile full of love, “Okay. Let’s get it.”

“I want it too.” Simona liked following suit. Whatever her brother wanted, she wanted it too, not caring whether she liked it or it. As long as her brother wanted it, she did too.

“Okey dokey. Let’s get it.” Jessica was used to Simona’s behavor like this.

Coral looked at Samuel and then looked at Simona who was talking. Her eyes opened wide. How could these two kids have such pretty faces? Their eyes were so bright, which almost looked the same as that of Matthew as a boy.

“As for shrimp, I know which stall sells the best shrimp.” Coral walked to them and looked at the two kids, “They are...”

Jessica didn’t feel strange about being accosted by others. Whenever she took the two kids outside before, people always stared at them for some time, or even came up and talked to them.

Jessica was quite used to this.

“My grandchildren.”

“They are adorable.” Coral couldn’t move her eyes away from these two kids. They were just so lovely.

Jessica smiled. That was true. These two kids were all that kept her living. To take care of them for her daughter was the task of her remaining life, which was also what made her the happiest person in the world.

“Hello, Madame.” Samuel had honey in his mouth.

“Hello to you too.” Coral reached her hand to fondle his head, “What’s your name?”

“I am Samuel Flores.”

“That’s a good name.” Coral thought in her mind that this child not only looked so adorable but also had a beautiful name.

“Madame, why don’t you ask me?” Simona was a bit unhappy. She looked at Coral, blinking her eyes.

Coral asked her brother and didn’t ask her. Was it because she wasn’t as pretty as her brother?

“It’s your turn now.” Coral said smiling. This kid was so adorable. She was so young and already she was jealous of her brother.

“What’s your name?” Coral smiled and asked her.

“I am Simona Flores. Me and my brother both inherited our mother’s surname.” Simona said in pleasure.

Coral froze. They all inherited their mother’s surname?

“You said you knew which stall had the freshest shrimp. Which one?” Jessica stopped Coral from asking more questions. Normally children inherited the surname of their father. So as soon as people heard that they inherited the surname of their mother, they would ask about their family.

Jessica didn’t like people asking and thinking about their family’s business.

“Oh.” Coral pointed to a place not far from them, “That one. Come on, I will lead you. I am a regular customer. They won’t overcharge me.”

Coral walked ahead of them and led them with enthusiasm.

Jessica pushed the trolley and followed her.

When they reached the stall, Coral greeted the storekeeper, “Today’s shrimp. Are they fresh?”

“Of course. Have a look.” The storekeeper used a net to get some shrimp out. Leaving water, the shrimp kept jumping and looked lively.

“You are a regular customer. This isn’t the first time that you buy my shrimp. You know whether it is fresh.” The storekeeper was talkative, “If you want to buy shrimp, I will charge you the least. How about 48 RMB per 500g? If it were other people, I won’t close a deal if the price is below 60 RMB per 500g.”

“I will have 1.15kg. then” Coral said with a crisp manner of speaking. The card that Matthew gave her had unlimited credit.

She had money.

Coral only bought shrimp from this storekeeper and knew that he wouldn’t cheat her.

“1.15kg should be... ”

“110.4.”

Before the storekeeper could get the answer from his calculator, Samuel had the answer already.

The storekeeper froze and pressed the “equal” button of the calculator, which showed the exact number that Samuel spoke before.

“How old are you, little boy? You are so smart.” The storekeeper smiled. This was the first time that he saw such a pretty and clever boy.

“I am five years old.” Samuel didn’t get proud because of the storekeeper’s praise for him. The mathematics in the question was too simple for him.

The storekeeper handed Coral the shrimp, “Is he your relative? Who has the blessing to give birth to such an excellent child?”

Coral got the shrimp. She wasn’t happy about what the storekeeper said. Because such an adorable kid wasn’t a relative of her.

Her face darkened and she handed him the money, “Here.”
