Nicole prepared four dishes and two soups for lunch; all of which were her signature dishes.
Everything looked and smelled delicious.
Staring at the dishes on the table, Evan’s appetite was aroused.
Just as he was about to ask for the price, his phone rang.
He took a glance at the caller’s ID and answered immediately.
“Mr. Seet, I have traced down where your money went.”
“Which bastard did it?”
“I-It was…” John stammered.
“Say it!” Evan ordered him impatiently.
“Mr. Seet, I have sent the details to your WhatsApp. You’ll understand when you see it.”
Upon ending the call, he clicked on the WhatsApp icon. His expression darkened instantly as he read the documents John sent.
He then lifted his head and gawked at Nicole with his cold and sharp eyes.
Nicole’s mind was racing. What is happening to him? Does he not like the dishes?
Thinking that he would pay, Nicole had put in the effort to cook her signature dishes.
Kyle and Juan each held a spoon and scooped their favorite dishes onto their bowls.
Nina was more lady-like; she only took the two dishes in front of her.
On the other hand, Maya did not care about her image at all. Her bowl was full of different dishes as she gobbled up the food.
Nicole did not ask him what was wrong and started eating.
But she was still bothered. What is wrong with Evan?
“Daddy, why aren’t you eating?” Kyle asked curiously.
“That’s right. Daddy, Mommy’s cooking is excellent. You’ll definitely like the dishes at first bite.”
Juan was sniffing the aroma of the food like a dog.
Impatient, he replied, “I’m not hungry!”
His face turned grim.
Sensing his displeasure, Nicole urged the kids to eat.
She then sighed silently, It seems like my dishes are not of his liking.
