The Second Life Of The Mercenary
Chapter 90 Sugar or chili powder

Different from her usual days, today Isabella serves herself. He had no idea where Aisnley, Taylor, and Selina had been.

"Sister," called Cony as she opened Isabella's room door, seeing the boy's smile made Isabella feel she was going to have a good day.

"What's the matter, Cony? Cony wants to eat cake? you can eat cake after breakfast. Understand right?" isabella walked over to Cony. But suddenly Cony came out and closed the door again, Isabella frowned to see it.

"Cony, what's wrong with you? why are you …."

"Surprise!" cony shouted cutting Isabella's words, the surprise was that Charlize was kneeling before the room door holding a large bouquet of flowers.

Isabella smiled she would not have guessed if this was how Charlize proved her love, "What is this?"

"Flower. Beautiful flowers for a beautiful woman, ah! no, not even this flower is ashamed of her beauty with you" Charlize teased.

"Where did you learn all those words? what's on the battlefield?" Isabella turned around to tease him.

"I learned sweet words from a love novel I bought at a bookstore last night. On the battlefield there are no women so where might I learn that from there."

"So if there's a woman on the battlefield you'll tease her with the same words?"

"Nope-no. I didn't know anything about sweet words before, because I just learned them last night."

"Basic suck. That's all you have to learn from books." Isabella snatched the bouquet from Charlize.

"I've taken the flowers. Now you come back," when Isabella did not look at Charlize.

"I came here because my mother invited you to our house, would you like to go together?" ask Charlize.

"alright. Come on!" answer Isabella.

"Cony go to Brother Vanessa's room. We'll eat together at lunch and then brother will buy you a lot of cake" said Isabella, as she nodded and ran straight to Vanessa's room.

When Isabella and Charlize's young carriage came out, Vanessa's carriage had just entered. No one knows where Vanessa came from.

After a long journey they finally arrived at Dara's residence, the servants welcomed the arrival of Isabella and Charlize.

"Mother, look who's coming." Charlize pulled Isabella gently closer to Dara who was sitting on her back to the entrance of the greenhouse.

"Are you angry that I didn't come to breakfast with you? but I'm calm because I and Isabella haven't had breakfast yet, we'll be taking it with mom" Charlize said.

Dara then turned to look at her son, "Good. Come here and eat the fruit, I was almost asleep just now because waiting for you lucky you brought my daughter-in-law here."

"I'm sorry, ma'am, maybe because Charlize stopped by to pick me up she's late. Something like this will never happen again" Isabella said.

"Mrs? I'm not your lady. Call me mother, come here and sit beside me. We'll eat fruit for breakfast." Dara invited Isabella to sit on the right and Charlize on the left.

"Eat only fruit? is that enough to keep hungry until lunchtime?" isabella's question made Dara and Charlize dumbfounded.

"What do you eat for breakfast?" tanya Dara looked at Isabella's body that was not thin and not fat.

"You eat a lot of it, too" seduced Dara.

"much? it was just a little. Before coming to Abraham's residence I ate 15 servings of food alone, it was still lacking because I was hungry very quickly" replied Isabella.

"You have to buy a lot of meat and rice later, remember your future wife likes to eat. I don't know where all the food she ate went" whispered Dara warning her son.

"Eat your fruit. After this we will eat another, for now we eat fruit first." Charlize gave Isabella the apple she had cut.

"Drink green tea, it's good for health." Dara pours the tea into Isabella's cup, "Charlize doesn't like this tea. But I love it, once if Regina came to visit she also likes this tea. You try to feel who knows you like."

Prangs!

Charlize drops her fork because Dara mentions another woman's name while with Isabella, even though Isabella looks ordinary. But Charlize does not know what Isabella thinks, she is afraid Isabella cancels their engagement.

"I don't like green tea." Isabella pushed the cup gently away from her, "I love jasmine tea with a little milk."

"Eh! the taste you like is the same as Charlize's father, he likes milk tea from jasmine tea. I remember the past." Dara's eyes so teary, for years he has not made milk tea in his residence.

"Let me make it for you. Wait a minute, yeah." Dara stood up from her chair, Isabella quickly blocked her hand.

"Let me just mother. Then maybe I let mom mem …."

"Sst." Dara covered Isabella's mouth with her index finger, "This is our family tradition, sit down obediently and wait for me to return."

When Dara goes to the kitchen Charlize takes over Dara's seat. He looked around and asked Isabella, "Why are you lying? at our show yesterday you had green tea, right?"

"Yes, I like all kinds of tea. But I like milk tea the most, a friend of mine used to make milk tea for me and it tasted really good. Unfortunately after he left I never again tasted milk tea with the same taste, so I decided to stop drinking milk tea," explained Isabella, her memory again returned to her previous life.

"Try the taste of mother-made milk tea, it tastes very delicious even I have made with the same recipe just it tastes different. My dad always said that if you pour a lot of love into making tea it tastes different."

"He also said the same thing," Isabella's inner.

Not long after Dara returned with the waiter who brought a tray containing poci and tea cups, Dara put the cup in front of Isabella and then she poured Dara's special milk tea. After that Dara sat back in place, Charlize had moved when she heard footsteps approaching the greenhouse.

"Slip!" dara's orders, Isabella hesitated for fear of being disappointed again with her taste. But he could not resist, this was a gift from Charlize's mother even he himself poured it.

Isabella tasted it a little, and when the milk tea touched her tongue Isabella again felt the taste of the tea she longed for, so happy Isabella to shed tears.

"Hiks .. Lucy, this is the same tea flavor as Lucy …." Isabella put the cup down, she could not drink it again if she drank it again then her tears would not be able to stop.

"What's wrong? does it feel that bad?" dara asked panicked, he was the first time anyone cried drinking milk tea made.

"What does it feel weird? did I put sugar or chili powder? akhs! I had made her cry the first day of her visit. He could have called off the engagement to Charlize," cried Dara inwardly, Charlize herself no less frantic with Dara.
