Chapter 146
Esther’s ravioli were super delicious, and Felix didn’t want to be a bad kid who wasted food. His little mouth was puffed up, giving him an adorable look. However, Bradley frowned and scolded him, reminding him not to eat things that were too hot.
ล
With a slightly swollen tongue, Felix explained, “I didn’t want to, but Mommy’s ravioli are too tempting. I couldn’t control myself…”
Bradley’s handsome face showed a hint of anger. “If you behave like this again, I won’t allow you to come to Primus Mansion.”
Esther fiercely defended Felix, saying, “Bradley, it’s my fault. I didn’t let the ravioli cool down to the right temperature before serving them. Felix is just a child. What does he know? You can’t treat our child like this as a father.”
“It’s not Mommy’s fault. I was just too impatient!” Felix interjected, afraid that Bradley would separate him from Esther.
Their similar expressions, filled with protectiveness and defense, unsettled Bradley. He quickly dismissed the ludicrous thought that crossed his mind, reminding himself that Esther and Liliane were half-sisters, so it was natural for Esther and Felix to resemble each other. 1
Once again, the truth slipped through Bradley’s fingers.
“Let’s eat,” Bradley said, his expression turning serious. “No more gobbling up your food. Pay attention to table manners,”
“I know!” grumbled Felix.
Esther picked up a steamed ravioli and placed it in Felix’s bowl. Felix sweetly thanked her, saying, “Thank you, Mommy.”
“Eat slowly. If you like it, I’ll make more for you in the future,” Esther said with a warm smile.
Felix ate the ravioli gracefully and cheerfully exclaimed, “I like anything as long as Mommy makes it!”
Bradley, accustomed to luxurious delicacies, recognized that Esther’s ravioli didn’t use any precious ingredients, but they were exceptionally delicious.
The seasoning was just right, the sauce was flavorful, and the ravioli skin was chewy. It was flawless.
Unconsciously, Bradley ate a lot and dropped his cutlery in panic when he realized he had exceeded his usual appetite. He looked at Felix, who had a round and satisfied belly with a happy and satisfied face.
“Mommy, it was so good!” Felix exclaimed.
As Melinda tidied up the dining table, she noticed Felix had eaten a bit too much and reminded Esther, Madam, you might need to help Mr. Felix digest, or else he might have indigestion tonight.”
“Felix, let’s go to the terrace and water the plants,” suggested Esther.
“Okay!” Felix eagerly agreed.
Hand in hand, Esther and Felix made their way to the terrace. It was adorned not only with flowers but also with various vegetables and fruits.
Esther took the hose and sprayed water on the plants, creating a mist that turned into a beautiful rainbow under the sunlight.
“Mommy, it’s a rainbow!” exclaimed Felix.
Esther asked, “Do you want to play?”
“Yes!” Felix replied eagerly.
