Chapter 1011
"Really?"
"Well, since Mr. Gordon's taken his medicine, he won't be throwing up. We wouldn't want that, now would we?"
Sophie nodded approvingly, "That's good to hear."
"Anything else, Ms. Sophie?"
"...No, nothing else."
"Alright then..."
"Have you guys had dinner yet?"
Sophie's sudden question caught Rick off guard.
How did we jump to dinner plans all of a sudden?
"...Not yet."
"Great! None of us have eaten either. I'll invite Mr. Gordon to join us in the dining room for dinner shortly!"
"That's..."
"I'll cook myself!"
Sophie blurted out before thinking.
After all, an apology should show genuine effort. And Jenna had mentioned earlier that day that for someone like Gordon, who is tough on the inside but appears soft on the outside, persistence is key. "Ms. Sophie, there's really no need to trouble yourself..."
"It's no trouble at all. We haven't eaten either."
As she spoke, Sophie hurried downstairs. Adler and Jenna, who had just returned from a lavish candlelit dinner and were stuffed, were pulled to sit down in the living room.
Jenna and Adler were puzzled.
"What's going on? Isn't your engagement party later? Is this an early celebration?" Adler asked, confused.
"Pretty much! I'm about to make dinner, let's eat together in a bit!"
"But we just ate," Jenna said, puzzled.
"One more meal won't hurt! I'll go cook, wait for me!"
With that, Sophie dashed into the kitchen.
Adler was stunned. He turned to Jenna, "What's gotten into Sophie? It's already 8 PM. By the time she finishes cooking, will it still be dinner?" én.swnovels.net
"I'm not sure... Maybe she wants to make amends."
Jenna thought making amends seemed more practical.
In the kitchen, Sophie was bustling around, while Rick wheeled Gordon downstairs.
Everyone gathered around the table in the living room.
"Quite the crowd tonight," Gordon said indifferently, but his eyes were on Sophie in the kitchen.
"Mrs. Costello invited me to dinner. Didn't expect it to be homemade."
"Ha... Haha..." Jenna forced a laugh, hoping Sophie would finish cooking soon.
She didn't want to sit at the same table with a stone-faced Gordon!
Time ticked by and Colby walked in, having been busy with wedding preparations and returning late.From NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing it was already 10 PM, with
Jenna, Adler, and Gordon seated at the dining table while Sophie was still in the kitchen, Colby frowned and asked, "Are you guys bullying my wife?"
Hearing this, Adler and Jenna shook their heads vigorously.
How could they dare!
At that moment, Sophie emerged
from the kitchen with two dishes et
Seeing Colby had returned, she said, "Youre back, go wash your hands and let's eat."
Colby had actually eaten already.
Coincidentally, today was the wedding menu tasting.
But seeing the dishes Sophie had prepared, Colby just smiled and said, "Perfect, I haven't had dinner yet."
Hearing Colby lie so smoothly, Adler was about to call him out.
But the next second, Colby shot him a warning glance.
