Chapter 1519
Roxanne glanced at the children.
They instantly understood her intention and secretly glanced at the food Lucian had prepared.
“It's fine. I think you all did quite well. There's a well-balanced amount of vegetables and meat, especially the chicken salad. I've been craving something crisp and refreshing for days!”
With that, Roxanne picked up her fork to taste the chicken salad. She scrunched her eyebrows at the sourness.
Lucian noticed her response and tasted the chicken salad himself. He immediately frowned and said, “I put too much vinegar.”
As soon as he said that, he reached over again to start the engine.
Roxanne quickly stopped him by grabbing his arm. “No, it's fine. I've been wanting to eat something sour for the past few days. It tastes just right for me.”
She then put on an act and asked the children, “Did you guys make this? My babies are so precious. You could even guess my cravings.”
The children were amused by Roxanne and wanted to laugh but had to hold it in. “It was Daddy!”
Roxanne pretended to be surprised as she looked at Lucian.
Naturally, Lucian could tell that they were acting. Displeased, he said, “Didn't I tell you not to force yourself? If it's not good, then it's not good.”
Roxanne helplessly stopped her act and breathed, “Although it can't be considered delicious, it's not that bad either. Besides, it's the thought that counts. The food will taste delicious no matter what. If I was the one who made all this food and sent it to you personally, would you not have eaten it?”
Her words rendered him speechless.
Roxanne placed a fork in his hand before putting some food on the children's plates.
“Mm! Benny, the food you made is too salty!”
“Essie's food is too spicy!”
Benny and Estella ate a few mouthfuls of food and began complaining about each other. In the end, they came to a conclusion. “Archie's food is the best! Daddy's chicken salad too!”
