Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 91

Chapter 091 Is He Like A Freebie?

Owen finally got to have the super delicious fish soup which was chunky and fragrant. Nodding with satisfaction, he felt his mouth was full of the wonderful taste and asked the person who served him the soup, “Is it cooked by your boss, Ms Newman in person? The soup was sent by Hailey‘s private

assistant, who was honest She replied, “Nope. I bought it from the restaurant downstairs.” Casting a

look at Owen, the girl added, “Ms. Newman said she is busy with her work and has no time for cooking

the fish soup” Heaving a sigh in his heart, Owen thought Hailey was being so cruel to him, and felt the

soup in his hand tasteless. He put down the bowl and wiped his mouth, ‘Is Ms Newman always that

busy?” “Yeah.” The girl answered, “Ms. Newman attended several meetings today, and has yet to have

lunch. And she is still in the office. I don‘t know when she‘ll get off work.” Owen frowned heavily

It was getting dark and Hailey had just finished a video meeting with saying goodbye She rubbed her

eyes wearily and closed her laptop. Chris, who was waiting beside Hailey, asked after closing his

computer, “Ms. Newman, shall I order some food for you?” “I‘m not hungry.” Pressing her stomach, Hailey

frowned, “I feel kinda heartburn in my stomach. Maybe I had too much coffee this afternoon. Feel free to order some food for yourself if you want.” She added as something came up with her, “Has Blair come back?” “Well, I‘ll go check it. She should come back.” Chris brought Sha to Hailey‘s office after a short while, “Ms. Newman.” “Yeah.” Hailey responded, “Have you sent the fish soup to him?” “Yes.” Sha described the whole process and said to Hailey, “Mr. Moore knew that you have yet to have lunch, so he‘s waiting for you outside. He‘d like to have dinner with you.” Hailey was stunned as if she had been struck by lightning. Well, she was sighing for having such a stupid private assistant. Owen found a random place in the office of the president. However, he didn‘t waste any time. Having some coffee, he replied some emails when he was waiting for Hailey with great patience. Hailey saw Owen in a light cyan casual outfit and a pair of white sneakers with a bandage on his forehead. Owen looked so dashing that even the bandage was like a hairband. There were bruises on his face, so he used several band–aids. He randomly pulled his black mask to his chin, but it didn‘t cover any of his killer charm. Hearing the footsteps, Owen looked up and cast a look at Hailey with his lips pursed, “Has the meeting been over?” The assistants of the President‘s Office had yet to get off work. They felt they were witnessing the

situation that a husband was waiting for his wife when seeing Owen and Hailey. Walking towards Owen,

Hailey asked in a cold voice three steps away from him, “You‘ve been discharged from hospital?” Owen

was asked to stay in hospital for further observation for a few days this morning. “Nope. I went out

secretly.” Owen‘s proud tone kinda surprised Hailey and it made her speechless. Squint at Jose beside Owen, Hailey said, “You didn‘t stop him?” Jose forced a smile, “I just can‘t.” What Jose said made sense.

He was merely an employee, so how could he go against his boss who was so stubborn to himself? Hailey waved her hand to the staff, meaning they could get off work. Casting a glance at Owen, she added, “Let‘s go.” “Where are we going?” Owen stood up and followed Hailey. Hailey answered, “You wanna have fish soup, don‘t you?”

Owen had never expected that Hailey would bring him to a grocery, or to be precise, a seafood market. It was the biggest seafood market in Poya and being so hustle and bustle even in the evening. Hailey

hadn‘t been here for quite long, but she was familiar with this place. She had changed into a pair of sneakers, and walked on the muddy path with a straight face. It was the first time that Owen had been in such a place. He frowned due to the fishlike smell. As for Hailey, she was so relaxed that she could even bargain with the fishmonger. She took the fishing net from the fishmonger and got a big milter in the

pond. “I‘ll buy it.” Owen had never seen Hailey like this, so he was so interested in it. After buying the fish,

Hailey led Owen to stroll the market. She bought ribs, beef and some vegetables, and asked Owen, Chris

and Jose to take them without any hesitation.

The three of them were like Hailey‘s hangers–on exclusively for taking food. Looking at the living fishes and crabs in his hands, Jose felt a bit frustrated as he had never done such a thing. However, he could say nothing as it was asked by Hailey. As for Owen, he didn‘t complain at all. Instead, he was so willing to follow Hailey and do whatever she asked. A middle–aged aunt sold the last bunch of spinach to Hailey before getting off and said in a pleasant tone, “Wow, you‘ve bought so many things. Are you gonna cook a big meal for your husband?” Hailey replied to the aunt indifferently, since she didn‘t wanna talk too much to a stranger. Standing beside Hailey, Owen was so pleased to hear Hailey say yes to the aunt with

a soft look after a stare at Hailey.

The experienced aunt had never seen such a perfect couple like Hailey and Owen, so she couldn‘t help

continuing the talk. She said in the dialect of Poya, “Girl, you‘re so lucky. The boy seems to be so into you. He‘s been staring at you as if his eyes are pinned on you.” Slightly pouting her lips, Hailey didn‘t reply to the aunt but thought she was so wrong in her heart. Owen smile, “I’m actually the lucky one who has such a good wife.” Hailey cast a glare at Owen to stop him. How could Owen be that thick–skinned? The aunt said with laughter, “Then you should always be nice to her, or else some other men would rob her

from you. There‘re so many extraordinary men in Poya. See. The two men behind you seem to be capable.” Jose and Chris were speechless. The two of them were just doing their jobs assistants. How could they become the rivals in love of Owen all of sudden? After purchasing all the food materials, Hailey went to the Nomad with Owen. Owen asked in surprise,

“You‘ll cook here?” Hailey answered indifferently, “There are not enough cookers and seasoning in the

hospital, but everything can be found here. Matthew also wants to have that soup, so I‘ll cook it here, once and for all.” Owen was wondering with a frown whether he was like a freebie.
