Chapter 696
Olivia withdrew her hand. "Clean up the kitchen then.1
Then, remembering something else, she turned around and asked, "How's Sam?"
"I can bring him to see you later, but I haven't found his parents."
Olivia rolled her eyes at him. "You're useless."
John stood in the kitchen, looking blankly at her back. He had mixed feelings.
'Did she just call me useless?
'She used to idolize me. Then she hates me to the bone...
'But neither worship nor hate had made me feel worse than this ignorance and contempt.
'Did Zac change her?'
Olivia was going to help Ian clean up when she saw him come down from the second floor and handed her a piece of paper.
"I wrote what I want to eat on it. Don't force yourself if you don't want to cook."
Olivia took it, glanced at it, and could not help smiling.
The boy had indeed grown up. He was a lot more attentive now.
He had written more than 20 dishes. Almost all of them were complicated dishes. Besides that, there were dishes from all over the world. He was deliberately giving her a hard time.
"Are you sure that's all you want? Is that all?"
"We’ll talk more about it if you can make these."
"Okay, sure. But you have to finish all of them once I make them."
Ian paused. "All... All of them?"
"How wasteful would that be?"
"But there are 20 or 30 complicated dishes here. Most of them are meat dishes and so on. I'm not a big eater..."
Olivia looked at her brother and did not back down. "I'm willing to cook so much. Isn't it out of line if you didn’t finish it? I saw that you usually eat takeout food. Consider today as giving you some nutrition."
