Chapter 560
Soon, Ms. Sally brought pecan pies to the dining table. "Mr. Lucero, pecan pies are ready, you can eat now."
Kenneth picked up his fork and took a bite of the pie. The taste of it was... really terrible.
Last time, Arabella made them with fresh shrimp, and they were bursting with a delicious and sweet taste. But these ies were hard to swallow.
Kenneth frowned and put down his fork in displeasure. "Take them away, I don't want to eat anymore."
Ms. Sally quietly watched him. Who was the one who initially thought that all pies tasted the same? Now he realized he was wrong.
At that moment, Mrs. Sharon in the living room chuckled. "Ms. Sally, you go about your business, don't mind him. I can see that tonight Bella won't be coming back, someone is restless."
Mrs. Sharon had been recovering well these past few days. Her appetite had slowly increased, and now she had good energy. She was sitting on the couch watching a TV drama.
Kenneth walked into the living room and sat next to his grandmother. "Grandma, why hasn't Arabella come back yet? She's the cook you hired, did she forget her responsibilities and put you aside?"
Mrs. Sharon quickly made a gesture to stop him. "Ken, Bella called me earlier and asked for the night off to celebrate with her classmates. I approved it. Don't try to sow discord here or try to take advantage of me. I won't fall for it."
"..." Kenneth looked at his grandmother and realized that ever since Arabella appeared, his grandmother was not as fond of him anymore!
"Ken, do you like Bella?" Mrs. Sharon asked with a smile.
Like...
The word made Kenneth's heart tighten. He had never thought about this question before. He had only known Arabella for a short while.
"No." Kenneth denied directly.
Mrs. Sharon looked at him and saw through his insincere denial. "I was just asking casually. Bella is such a good girl and there is no shortage of suitors around her. Ken, if you like Bella, you better make your move, or else someone will snatch her away soon."
