He drove from the First Ring Road to the Second Ring Road, and from the Second Ring Road to the Third Ring Road, ...
However, he just didnāt drive the car back to the Land Family home.
He spent the entire afternoon driving aimlessly, with her image popping into his mind from time to time, like a vicious cycle.
Feeling a bit annoyed, he pulled over to the roadside and lit a cigarette.
Sophie Smith glanced at the time; it was already past ten in the evening, yet Asher Land still hadnāt come home. It seemed he was angry with her too. Since they were both irritated with each other, why continue this mutual torment? Was there any point?
She lay in bed, tossing and turning, but she just couldnāt fall asleep.
She felt a bit hungry, so she pulled off the covers and got out of bed to see if there was anything to eat in the kitchen, as she hadnāt eaten much all day.
As she went downstairs, she ran into Nanny Garcia, who was about to rest.
"Miss Smith, itās so late; is there anything you need?" Nanny Garcia asked.
"Oh, nothing, nothing," Sophie said, brushing past Nanny Garcia as she walked toward the kitchen.
Nanny Garcia was a bit surprised; why was Sophie heading to the kitchen so late? She didnāt think much of it and followed Sophie to the kitchen.
In the large kitchen, Sophie searched around but couldnāt find any ready-to-eat food.
"Miss Smith, are you, are you hungry?"
"A little bit," she admitted truthfully.
"How about I make you something to eat? Itās so late; the chef has already gone to rest, but Iām afraid my cooking may not match the chefās skills..."
"Oh, no need to trouble yourself, Nanny Garcia. Itās so late; you should go rest too." She didnāt want to bother Nanny Garcia, so she walked straight out of the kitchen. Going hungry for one night wouldnāt kill her.
As Sophie left, Nanny Garcia suddenly remembered something and quickly took out her phone.
Didnāt the young master say to inform him if Miss Smith needed anything? And now, Miss Smith was hungry...
But if the young master was busy with something else, it might be inappropriate to call him just for Miss Smithās hunger.
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to make the call.
Asher Land was resting in his car when he heard the phone ring. He quickly picked it up, and seeing it was a call from Nanny Garcia, he immediately felt a rush of anxiety.
"What happened? Is there something wrong with her?" he asked, his tone slightly anxious.
"Oh, young master, thereās no need to worry. Miss Smith is fine, itās just..."
"Just what?"
"Itās just that sheās a bit hungry, but the chef has already gone off duty, and Iām afraid what I can make wonāt suit Miss Smithās taste..." Nanny Garcia explained honestly.
Without saying a word, Asher Land hung up the phone and drove directly to a high-end restaurant.
He placed the packed food in the car, glanced at the time ā was it already so late? Would she be asleep when he returned? The thought of her possibly going to bed hungry made him feel a bit distressed.
He floored the gas pedal, and the car sped away.
For the first time, Sophie Smith experienced how painful hunger could be,
Her stomach growled continuously; luckily, Asher Land wasnāt there, or sheād be so embarrassed. But thinking carefully, wouldnāt it be nice if he was there? He wouldnāt let her go hungry.
He was most sensitive about others saying that he couldnāt even feed a woman...
"Sophie, stop thinking about it." She pulled the covers over her head, trying to hide her flustered emotions. Why was she thinking about him? Werenāt they in a cold war right now?
