Chapter 1139
The fish stew looked murky and tasted fishy. It was also salty, spicy, and a little burned The weird combination of flavors made it almost inedible.
Leighton was in absolute shock when he took the first sip. He had never eaten something as disgusting as that before.
“Does it taste bad?” Estelle could not help but ask after she saw his reaction.
As a fan of Dusk Galaxy, Leighton vowed to defend his idol’s image until the end. So, he said, “No. It’s pretty tasty.”
“Then, why did you spit it out?”
“It was too hot,” Leighton stubbornly said.
Estelle did not bother to continue the conversation and said, “I’m gonna go wash up. Remember to go to bed after you finished your stew. We have work tomorrow.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
After Estelle left, Leighton stared at the pot of stew and thought, ‘Should I just throw it out? Stella did make it for me, but it’s literally so hard to swallow.’
Leighton frowned, as he thought about what he should do with the food. Then, he suddenly remembered Keegan’s idea of giving some to Trevor. He was not willing to do so earlier, but now it seemed like an excellent idea. ‘There’s no way I’m suffering alone,’ he thought as he quickly packed things up
and had someone send the stew over to Elegant Media.
Trevor was still working in the office at that time. Xavier signed the package and thought that it was from the Saun family. He put the stew in a bowl and sent it to Trevor’s office without question. That night, Trevor drove to Leighton’s residence and beat him up while the true culprit was safe at home.
Stella was washing up when Aldor called Keegan. Keegan then left the bedroom to answer the phone. Mr. Kane, I’ve checked the surveillance. A kid in the elevator pulled Ms. Jewell’s mask off, and two girls recognized her.”
“A kid?”
“Yes. The woman carrying the kid almost fell, and Ms. Jewell helped her. That was when the child yanked her mask off.”
“Have you tracked them down?”
