Caroline immediately turned to look at Blake, her face reddening with embarrassment. “What do you mean? Please, don’t say things like that.”

Stella, who had been eating quickly, paused to chew her food before responding, “You’re such a great cook. Your meals aren’t just pretty to look at–they taste amazing too. I’ve always wished for a sister–in–law who could cook, so why don’t you just become mine?”

Caroline expected Blake to stop Stella, but he was too busy enjoying his food, taking his time with every bite, clearly uninterested in getting involved.

Caroline took it upon herself to reply. “You’re rushing things, aren’t you? Your brother’s good–looking and successful, so there’s no way he won’t find a girlfriend. Don’t worry–if your brother’s interested, you’ll get a sister–in–law soon.”

Blake’s eyebrows twitched, but he remained silent, continuing to eat as though nothing had happened.

Stella, however, was determined to continue. “My brother is quiet and a little odd. He’s never had a girlfriend–he doesn’t even have any female friends! If don’t nag him, he’ll end up alone forever.”

Caroline had noticed Blake’s reserved nature during the time they spent together. But she thought it wasn’t a big deal.

He’s attractive, after all, so there’s no way he can’t find someone.

Stella is probably exaggerating.

Caroline didn’t take her words too seriously, thinking she was just joking.

With a smile, she picked up her fork, place a piece of rib to Stella’s bowl, and hoped that the food would stop her from talking.

“This one’s really good. You should try it.”

To Caroline’s surprise, Stella wasn’t ready to back down. “Last time, you said you didn’t like anyone- maybe you should consider my brother.”

Then, turning to Blake, she asked, “Hey, aren’t you going to say anything?”

She kept giving him teasing looks, raising her eyebrows and encouraging him to speak up.

Blake, still not looking up, picked up a piece of greens and placed it into her bowl. “Eat your food.”

His response left Stella speechless, causing her to roll her eyes dramatically.

Forget it, I’m done with him, she thought bitterly.

Good luck getting a wife! When Caroline finally finds someone she likes, let’s see if he regrets it then.

Finally, the subject was dropped, and the three of them resumed their meal, each lost in their own thoughts. The mood at the table felt awkward, almost uncomfortable.

After they finished eating, Stella and Blake left soon after. Caroline headed back to the Somertons.

When she entered the house, the family was already sitting around the dinner table.

Miguel looked at her, his expression a bit stern. “Where have you been? I called for you to come back for dinner. Why didn’t you answer?”

Liam had mentioned seeing Caroline deliver takeout that day, so Miguel suspected she had been out working, but he wanted to hear it from her directly.

Caroline bent down to change he responding casually, “I was working. Didn’t hear the phone.”

Once she had changed, she walked straight toward her room.

The past few days had been exhausting, preparing meals for so many people.

She was looking forward to a hot shower and getting some early rest.

But before she could get too far, Miguel’s voice rang out from behind her.

“Aren’t you going to eat? What are you planning to do?”

Caroline, not bothering to stop or turn around, continued her walk. “I already ate outside.”

This new job wasn’t so bad.
