Never Tired of Mr. Leon's Love novel Chapter 142

Once they had introduced themselves, Lucy set aside the papers she was holding and gave Matthew a soft smile.

"Did you manage to grab something to eat on your way here?"

Matthew gazed at Lucy fondly. "Nope, I was waiting for you to finish work."

Lucy let out a sigh. "You have to eat well even when I'm not around. What if you upset your stomach?"

She was about to lead Matthew and Charlie to the company cafeteria for a quick bite when she turned to Charlie. "Mr. Jennings, any foods you don't eat? I can let the kitchen know. And what's your favorite food? I'll have them whip up a special plate for you."

Charlie, hearing this, had to hold back a laugh. She was being so thoughtful, but the way Matthew was showing off their love was worthy of an eye roll.

Matthew caught the look on Charlie's face and gave him a cool glance.

"Don't worry about it. No need to ask him what he wants."

What? Lucy looked at Matthew, her face a picture of confusion. She thought, 'He's your buddy, isn't he? Aren't you going to ask him what he'd like? Is this how guys are with each other?'

Matthew, not wanting to look bad in front of Lucy, took a moment to explain.

"This guy's a real picky eater. He won't touch onions, garlic, eggplants, or any meat that's too flavorful. But if you sneak some garlic paste into a dish, he's okay with it. He's got a whole list of food no-nos. He doesn't eat plenty of things."

Lucy was totally confused.

She had heard that rich kids could be fussy with food, but this was something else.

She took a deep breath and looked at Charlie.
