My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442 

Xara hesitated briefly before elegantly taking a seat next to Esther. She placed a napkin on her lap. The dining room atmosphere turned strangely awkward. As a guest, Esther felt uncertain about alleviating the tension. 

At that moment, Sunshine approached, her hands and shoes clean. Without any assistance from servants, she skillfully climbed onto her chair. She then reached out her chubby little hand toward Jacob. 

“Jacob, smell my hand. Isn’t it fragrant?” 

Without a second thought, Jacob replied, “Yes, it is.” 

Seeing that everyone was present, Steffan folded the newspaper in his hand and uttered indifferently, “Serve the dishes.” 

“Yes,” the servants replied promptly, relaying the message to the kitchen through the 

intercom. 

In a matter of moments, uniformed servants brought an array of dishes to the dining room. The table was adorned with exotic delicacies from around the world, while child-friendly meals were placed near Sunshine and Felix. Their eyes widened excitedly as they observed the delicious spread, promptly grabbing their small spoons and forks. 

“Mommy, can we eat now?” Sunshine asked in her adorable voice. 

Steffan spoke gently toward Sunshine. “Yes, you can.” 

“Let’s eat, Uncle Sanderson.” Upon receiving Steffan’s consent, Sunshine and Felix eagerly began devouring the shrimps placed on the table. 

Every time Steffan saw Sunshine’s adorable behavior, he could not help but think how delightful it would be if Jacob had a cute sister like her. 

Sunshine picked up a shrimp with her small fork and placed it into Jacob’s bowl. “Here, Jacob, 

eat one.” 

Xara watched in surprise as Jacob ate the shrimp Sunshine had served him. She remembered that as a child, Jacob used to be a neat freak and would not eat food served by others. 

While the children ate happily, the adults ate in silence. 

The chefs in the kitchen were aware that Xara was there. They had prepared her favorite cheese -baked shrimp, but her taste had changed over the past five years, and she had lost interest in 

While picking up her food, Xara’s hand suddenly cramped, causing her to let out a sharp hiss. Esther noticed her discomfort and asked, “Xara, what’s wrong?” 

“I’m fine,” Xara responded curtly. 

While picking up her food, Xara’s hand suddenly cramped, causing her to emit a sharp hiss. Noticing her discomfort, Esther asked, “Xara, what’s wrong?” 

“I’m fine,” Xara replied. 

Thoughts of Steffan flooded her mind, the very cause of her cramp. Five years ago, he used to be like a machine, almost afraid to grant her a moment of solitude. However, now it seemed his interest in her had waned.
