Early the next morning, everyone took the bus provided by the crew to a nearby orchard.
It was just the season for grapes, cantaloupes, figs, and other fruits to ripen. One could smell the sweet fragrance drifting out from inside even when standing at the entrance.
After the four groups used their travel funds to buy tickets, each grabbed a small basket and headed into the orchard.
“This bunch of grapes looks good, Jessi. Let me get it for you.” Brian, being tall, always spotted the best fruits hanging up high right away.
“Mhm, hurry.” Jessica nodded repeatedly, swallowing hard. They smelled so good. She thought she could easily fill up on fruit there.
With that, Brian picked the grapes as fast as he could and dropped them into the little basket Jessica was holding.
Jessica found a rock to sit on and started eating right away.
Brian wandered around within 30 feet of her, picking all sorts of top fruits for her.
“So sweet,” Jessica said,pletely won over by the grapes‘ fresh sweetness. After finishing one bunch, she looked up at Brian at once.
Brian didn’t let her down, quickly bringing over two more bunches. Jessica dug in without hesitation.
Once they had enough grapes, they moved on to the cantaloupe field. Jessica picked one herself and asked Brian to cut it open.
Brian borrowed a fruit knife from the orchard owner, sliced up the cantaloupe quickly, and handed a slice to Jessica.
Jessica kept eating happily.
The live stream viewers, who’d been gushing over their sweetness, couldn’t sit still when they saw this. They flooded the chat withments.

[Right, pregnant women need to watch their sugar. Ms. Grant already had too
much today. She really can’t have more.]
[Mr. Atkinson, quick, stop her.]
[@Official ount, hurry and remind Ms. Grant.]
[Hurry! This isn’t a joke. Pregnant women really need to control their sugar intake. Otherwise, something bad could happen.]
[Why no reply yet? I’m getting so anxious.]
The assistant monitoring the live stream chat saw this and reported it to Raymond right away.
Raymond was startled. He quickly found an excuse to gather the groups and showed them the live streamments.
Jessica had just moved on to the figs, eating them happily, when Raymond suddenly reminded her to check thements.
She looked up and was taken aback by all the messages saying pregnant women need to watch their sugar intake. “Uh, well…”
“It’s fine. It’s just this once. Nothing will happen,” Brian said. He rarely saw her with such a big appetite and naturally didn’t want to hold her back.
He thought, ‘After all, the point ofing out to have fun is to enjoy ourselves, right? If Jessi can’t even let loose once for the sake of the babies, that will be way too unfair to her.‘
“I think so too.” Jessica was happy with Brian’s response, though she did cut back a bit on eating.
Raymond quickly spoke up. “Lunchtime is almost here. The crew has a big lunch ready for everyone. Don’t fill up on fruit now.”
“Don’t worry, we won’t. I’ve saved room for the big meal,” Lillian joked with a chuckle, lightening the mood.

Vanessa nodded along. “Raymond, don’t worry. We won’t let you save any money.”
She turned to Jessica. “Ms. Grant, you agree with me, don’t you?”
As she got closer, a strong smell of rosemary hit Jessica’s nose, making her feel a little queasy.
Jessica stepped back quietly, putting some distance between them. “Absolutely. I’m gonna walk around a bit to digest.”
Vanessa’s perfume was way too strong. She couldn’t take it.
