Chapter 201 Dinner With Miley
The table had been set with aromatic dishes by Gabrielle and Miley. The ambiance among the three of them was much quieter than when there were so many people at the table.
Miley sat on the main seat while Westley and Gabrielle sat opposite each other. They could both see each other as soon as they looked up.
As soon as Gabrielle settled in her seat, she looked up and saw Westley’s dark eyes. She lowered her eyes subconsciously and saw a pair of white hands with Band-Aids on the back. which looked somehow incompatible with his skin tone.
When she remembered that Westley was pecked by a hen while he helped her to pick up the eggs from the chicken house, she felt somty but also wanted to laugh at the same time.
“What’s so funny, that’s making you
laugh, Gabrielle?” Westley asked when he saw her shoulders heaving up and down slightly because she was laughing silently
‘How come she’s smiling so happily even while eating? Is it because the food is so delicious or what? Westley wondered.
“Actually, the scrambled eggs and green peppers are so delicious that’s why I am eating happily.” Immediately Gabrielle said this, she quickly picked up a large piece of fried egg with green pepper and put it into her mouth, Unknown to her, there were fewer eggs than green pepper on the chopstick, which made tears come out of her eyes as a result of the spice.
“Aha… This is so spicy…” Gabrielle muttered, but didn’t have time to spit it out as tears rolled down her cheeks. She took her cup but found that the water had been drunk up.
Westley quickly handed her his glass of water. “How could you be so stupid? You know that you can’t eat spicy food. Why then did you eat so much pepper?”
Gabrielle felt bitter in her heart, but didn’t know what to say.
It wasn’t her intention to eat so much pepper at once. She had picked up cags to eat, but she never expected that there would be so much pepper in the tres But right now, her mouth was burning so hot that she didn’t have the time to bunter words with her husband
It wasn’t until she had drunk the whole glass of water that she realized that the glass belonged to Westley.
For this reason, she burped subconsciously when she drank water out of the glass that he had drunk from.
As she looked at the cup, her eyes shifted to Westley,
“Do you dislike my glass?” Westley asked with a sneer. When Westley saw that she was looking uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, he thought that she was disgusted with the water glass because he had used it first.
“No, I don’t. I just want to say thank you for letting me use it,” Gabrielle said as she tried to wear a perfunctory smile.
“Hypocrite,” Westley said indifferently as he looked away from her. Although
her eyes were full of disgust, she still pretended as if she was thanking him.
He felt that as time went by. Gabrielle was becoming even better at pretending
“What? It’s just that Gabrielle liked the eggs you picked up at the expense of your life. That’s why she picked up so many eggs all at once. She didn‘t know that most of them were peppers, right?” Miley said with a smile as she spoke on Gabrielle’s behalf.
As Westley looked at his grandma, he was at a loss for words. He couldn’t help but wonder if the matter about being pecked by a hen would ever be forgotten.
He felt that he would be bullied mercilessly by Miley and Gabrielle tonight. He was Miley’s real grandson, but it was obvious that his grandma wasn’t on his side but on that of his wife.
“Westley, you should also try to eat more eggs, or else, your blood will bleed in vain.” Gabrielle wiped off the last drop of tear on her face and looked at Westley.
She thought she was so weak that she even cried in front of Westley because She ate peppers. She couldn’t help but
feel so embarrassed.
“Gabrielle, give more eges to Westley. He was injured while he was picking up the eges. He should eat more eggs.” Miley urged Gabrielle.
As Miley said this Gabrielle didn’t give too much thought to it. She followed Miley’s order and picked up some eggs for Westley with her chopsticks as she deliberately avoided the green pepper.
However, Westley, whose face was gloomy and dark, fixed his gaze on Gabrielle thereby making her tremble in lear.
