Chapter 50 He Has No Reaction to His Girlfriend
Without hesitation, Harvey Fieldmouse walked in with a gift in hand and said, “Miss Florrick, these are for your well-being, girls need to take care of themselves.”
Meredith was still wondering why Terrence Sterling had come for her when Harvey Fieldmouse took the opportunity to bring the gift inside.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“Mr. Fieldmouse, I can’t accept this,” Meredith said, “These are too expensive, please take them back.”
“These are skincare products for girls. Why would I take them back? You should use them,” Harvey Fieldmouse smiled, “No need to be polite with me. I’m just greasing the wheels here. You’re now on Terry’s radar, so I need to build a good relationship with you first.”
Meredith replied, “Mr. Fieldmouse, you’ve got it all wrong. I and Mr. Sterling…”
“Miss Florrick, I’ve known Terry for over twenty years. You think I don’t know what kind of person he is?” Harvey Fieldmouse chuckled, “Is he the type to care about his subordinates? I highly doubt it. I bet Terry definitely has feelings for you. You need to be careful, Miss Florrick.”
“It’s absolutely impossible,” Meredith said as she brought out noodles from the kitchen, placing them on the coffee table and starting to eat, “Mr. Sterling has a girlfriend. Mr. Fieldmouse, please don’t make such jokes in the future.”
“You mean that woman living in Thornfield Gardens?” Harvey Fieldmouse remarked dismissively, “It won’t be long before Terry kicks her to the curb.”
Meredith asked in astonishment, “Why?”
Is he so fickle?
Harvey Fieldmouse blurted out, “Terry can’t perform with her.”
Meredith couldn’t help but burst out laughing, spraying the noodles she had just eaten all over Harvey Fieldmouse’s face.
Harvey Fieldmouse: …
“I’m sorry, Mr. Fieldmouse, it wasn’t intentional,” Meredith apologized.
Who told him he could say anything?
Meredith quickly handed a tissue to Harvey Fieldmouse, saying, “Please wipe it off.”
Harvey Fieldmouse calmly took the tissue and wiped his face, unable to remove the soup stains from his clothes.
Meredith felt really sorry, “Mr. Fieldmouse, I’m truly sorry.”
Harvey Fieldmouse casually remarked, “Miss Florrick, mere apologies won’t cut it for the soiled clothes. You owe me a new outfit.”
“Fair enough,” Meredith asked, “How much?”
“Just accompany me to buy a new set later,” Harvey Fieldmouse was just teasing Meredith, finding an excuse to spend time with her.
Meredith hesitated for a moment and said, “Alright, I have to go out later too.”
“I’ll go wash up in the bathroom first,” Harvey Fieldmouse got up, looking around the house, “Where’s the bathroom?”
Meredith pointed in a direction.
Harvey Fieldmouse went straight to the bathroom to wash his face, taking the opportunity to observe the layout of the whole house and its belongings.
There was only one towel, a toothbrush, and a cup in the bathroom.
Clearly, it was a single person living here.
Previously, Terry had mentioned that Miss Florrick had a fiance, but it was clear that he was just trying to throw him off and keep him away from pursuing Miss Florrick.
This further confirmed Harvey Fieldmouse’s suspicion that Terrence Sterling was interested in Meredith.
Harvey Fieldmouse had no intention of pursuing Meredith. He was just intrigued by Terrence Sterling’s different attitude towards Meredith and wanted to stir things up while enjoying the show.
Terry kept insisting he had no interest in Meredith, but Harvey wanted to see Terry proven wrong. That scene would undoubtedly be satisfying.
After finishing her noodles and washing the dishes, Meredith poured Harvey Fieldmouse a glass of water, saying, “Mr. Fieldmouse, we’re out of tea. Have some water instead.”
Harvey Fieldmouse knowingly asked, “Miss Florrick, do you live alone?”
“Yes,” Meredith replied, “I used to share the lease with a friend, but she moved out last month. Now I live alone. Mr. Fieldmouse, wait a moment, let me change my shoes and we’ll go. Where do you want to buy clothes?”
“We’ll decide on the way,” Harvey Fieldmouse said.
Soon, Meredith was ready, and the two of them left together.
Harvey Fieldmouse was very humorous, always laughing and easy to get along with. Plus, she was in the wrong for spraying him with noodles, so she couldn’t refuse.
While driving, Meredith was still pondering Harvey Fieldmouse’s words. Did Terrence Sterling really come to see her? Did Terrence Sterling truly have no reaction to his girlfriend?
“Miss Florrick, this is the place,” Harvey Fieldmouse parked the car in front of a budget clothing store.
It was a store selling affordable clothes.
“Mr. Fieldmouse, are you sure about this?” Meredith thought someone like Harvey Fieldmouse wouldn’t wear clothes from a street store.
“As long as it’s something you choose, I’ll like it,” Harvey Fieldmouse smiled, “Let’s go, this is it.”
