Jay came here to cook?
He did not know how to cook and needed Bob and Cora's help for it?
Jay's behavior with the Levines had never changed indeed.
Just when Zoe was about to say something sarcastic, Bob walked over and said, "I'm teaching your husband how to cook."
"Huh?" Zoe was shocked.
"What's with that look on your face? You don't believe that I know how to cook?" Bob said on purpose.
"No," Zoe blurted. "I've tasted your food before."
The moment she said that, the atmosphere between them tensed up.
Bob had learned how to cook for her when they were dating each other.
Bob was naturally talented and everything he cooked tasted delicious, unlike her, who managed to screw up every dish she cooked.
"Didn't you whip up a meal for us the last time Zoe and I went to your house?" Jay cut in naturally.
His acting skills…
What a pity that Jay was not an actor.
"Yeah," Cora immediately chimed in.
Cameras were surrounding them and it was easy for people to realize something was wrong.
"The last time we celebrated my birthday, you cooked for us and invited Jay and Zoe to our house. Sam came too, did you forget?" Cora added more details to make it sound more believable.
"I almost forgot about it," Bob said jokingly. "I only had eyes for you on your birthday and just forgot about everyone else."
Cora smiled sweetly. "You're the best at teasing me and making me laugh."
"You're my girlfriend—of course I have to do that."
They started bickering playfully with each other, looking just like a loving couple.
Zoe heaved a sigh of relief.
They almost got busted.
Thankfully, everyone reacted quickly.
She had to be more careful moving forward.
"Zoe, come here and have a taste," Jay called out to her.
