Chapter 285: 285: Suddenly Fainting

It wasn’t until yesterday that she found out that her little brother had been taking the public bus every day to work at a takeaway restaurant.

After getting on a bus and arriving at the fifth station in about ten-plus minutes, Emily got off and followed the direction her little brother had pointed out, indeed seeing a takeaway restaurant.

As soon as she entered, she saw her brother Wallace’s busy figure.

At this moment, it seemed that her own life was even less ordinary and solid than her brother’s.

“Sister! You’re here!” Turning his head and seeing his sister at the front door, Wallace waved and smiled.

Emily walked into the restaurant, knowing full well that it was not good to disturb her brother too much while he was working. She found a seat and ordered a cup of fruit juice.

“What brings you here today?” Wallace walked over with a cup of fruit juice, feeling quite at ease working here. The boss lady was also very nice and took good care of him.

At these words, Emily smiled and glanced around the restaurant, “I had nothing to do today, so I came to have a look.”

“Waiter!” Before Wallace could say anything, someone shouted for a waiter. He had to turn around and walk over, “Sister, sit for a while.”

“Alright.”

Seeing her brother’s busy figure, Emily felt gratified.

Perhaps the restaurant’s business was just too good – half an hour passed and Wallace still had no time to pay attention to his older sister.

Finding a brief gap in his schedule, Wallace walked over, “Sister, you haven’t had dinner yet, right? Let me prepare a meal for you.”

Before Emily could respond, Wallace had already turned around and gone to the counter to order her a mushroom chicken steak rice.

“This is delicious, I recommend it!” With a bright smile, Wallace said he had been working here for a few days and naturally knew which set meal tasted good.

As the sky gradually darkened, Emily did start to feel hungry, especially with the aroma of the mushroom chicken. She couldn’t help but pick up a spoon to taste it.

“Delicious.” She looked up and smiled at Wallace.

“Then you eat first. Let me know if you need anything, I’ll get back to work!”

“Mhm!” Emily nodded, watching as Wallace turned around and began busying himself again.

She had wanted to chat with her brother for a while, but he seemed very busy, to the point where she had finished her chicken chop rice without him having a free moment.

She stood up and went to the counter, glanced at the price list, and pulled out a 100 USD banknote from her wallet, “Wallace.”

She looked at the busy Wallace and handed the money to him.

Seeing the red banknote handed over, Wallace paused, “What is it?”

Emily smiled, “For the meal.”

Now that she was almost completely reliant on Baron Stuart, she didn’t need to spend any money on food or lodging, whereas her brother had to fend for himself. So she had no reason to ask him to cover this little meal expense.

“Sister, have we become so estranged that you’re afraid I can’t afford a meal?” Wallace chuckled and asked.

Emily lowered her eyelids and stayed silent for a while before slowly saying, “No, it’s just that I have nowhere to spend money right now, so save the money you earn from working!”

As his older sister, there was no way she could take the money he worked hard for.

She stuffed the money into his hand, and then smiled brightly, “When you’re rich in the future, come and support me. I’ll go home first.”

Having said that, she turned around and left.

Watching his sister’s departing figure, Wallace fell into deep thought. Maybe he could save this money for the future.
