A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1424

Cherish ignored Carlos' attitude and called after him with a smile, "Then I'll prepare the dishes I made the day before yesterday."

Carlos stopped midway up the stairs. He grabbed onto the handrail hard enough for his knuckles to turn white. "Just give it a rest, Cherish," he said through clenched teeth.

He did not want Cherish running around the kitchen.

Cherish was stunned. She then asked, "Why? Don't you like my cooking?

But your appetite has been good lately."

She did not sound argumentative. She looked at him with inquisitive and sincere eyes.

Carlos blinked, keeping his face neutral despite feeling a little annoyed. "It doesn't matter whether I like your cooking or not. The point is that you don't have to try so hard."

"Well, I want to," Cherish snapped. She put her hands on her hips and added, "I came here to take care of you, and if taking care of you means doing some housework, then I'll do it. If you can eat the food prepared by the cooks, you can eat the food I prepared."

If Carlos dared to snap back at her, she would charge at him and break his leg.

At this point, she no longer cared if Carlos did not want her to try. She would take care of him because she loved him like a drunk loved wine.

A little startled by the change in Cherish's attitude, Carlos simply nodded and said, "Fine."

He then proceeded to his room without looking back.

As soon as Carlos disappeared to his room, tears welled up in Cherish's eyes. "That bastard! He can really make anyone feel bad without even trying!" she muttered.

She was so angry that she stomped all the way to the kitchen and prepared a nutritious soup to make him feel guilty.

Carlos was too focused on Cherish to notice his parents watching from a corner.

After listening to Carlos and Cherish's conversation, Leah and Chuck headed back to their room to discuss it.

Chuck and Leah had always liked Cherish for their future daughter-in-law. She was beautiful, sweet, diligent, and she really cared about Carlos.

Leah sighed and looked at Chuck, who was silent at the moment. She felt that Carlos was just like his father, often quiet and brooding.

"Any ideas?" Leah asked.

"None," Chuck immediately replied. "They should sort out their differences on their own. We can't do anything about it."

"What do you mean we can't do anything about it? With the way he's treating her, Cherish could walk away. Carlos can't miss out on that girl. She's perfect for him. I wonder what the hell is going on inside that boy's head," Leah snapped.

She stomped her feet in annoyance and disappointment. Suddenly, she looked back up at Chuck, which made him frown. "Why are you looking at me like that? I also want the two of them to end up together," he said.

"Then think of something to help them end up together!" Leah yelled. She was both angry and amused.

They knew that Carlos had been stubborn since he was a child. He never did things he did not want to do, and he was especially single-minded when it came to love. Perhaps he was still thinking about Nora.

Leah sighed. "I'm really curious about why he can't forget that girl."

"If you're so curious, then why don't you ask him in person?" Chuck replied.
