Everyone was speechless.
Lucas took in the strange scene with a slight headache. Realization finally dawned on him, especially after noticing a familiar fanatical look mixed with a hint of admiration in Sabrina's eyes when she gazed at Ashlyn. I suddenly understand everything. So... the so-called love rival has turned into Ashlyn's fangirl?
He could not help but set down his fork and massage his temples. My wife's charm is too overwhelming. What should I do? This is serious! She attracts both men and women. Regardless of gender, they all want to steal my wife. What am I to do?
Silas, Spencer, and the others were still in a state of confusion when they saw Sabrina bring out a plate of fried mushrooms, her face slightly flushed. She pushed it in front of Ashlyn, and her voice carried an inexplicable shyness as she said, “Ms. Berry, I made this myself. Would you like to try it?”
There was a thud as Silas fell out of his chair and onto the floor, his mouth agape in shock. It was such a hard fall that his whole body ached, making him grimace in pain.
“What the heck?”
“Are you possessed?”
“Ms. Gray, what's going on?”
Silas wore a horrified expression, looking as though he had seen a ghost. “Is what you've made edible? Could it be that you've intentionally poisoned it? Is that what awaits Ms. Berry in this dish?”
She shot him an annoyed glance, then glanced at her colleagues from Section Six, who were also staring at her in shock.
Stomping her foot in frustration, she said, “How could I possibly harm Ms. Berry? What are you talking about? I... I can cook. I may not be a master chef, but I certainly wouldn't poison anyone!”
As she spoke, she quickly speared a piece of fried mushroom with her fork and popped it into her mouth.
“If this is poisoned, I'll be the first one to die.”
However, Ashlyn interrupted her indignant outburst and said, “Let me have a taste.”
