Chapter 884 Making a Firm Decision

Chapter 884 Making a Firm Decision

A subtle, almost impossible expression briefly disrupted Marcus‘ normally blank, halNifeless face.

He mentally replayed the image.

Ms. Tibarn chews it first and then feeds it to us? Even if it’s Ms. Tibarn… it’s still already–chewed food.

Marcus pressed his lips into a thin line and, inch by inch, quietly slid his bowl away from her.

“No… no, it’s fine.”

His voice came out rough and dry, his gaze drifting aside. “I’m not that exhausted. Just a little sore. I can handle it myself”

Without waiting, he quickly picked up a piece of greens, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed with exaggerated enthusiasm, as though it were the most delicious thing he had ever eaten.

Alaric’s hand stopped mid–motion, a flicker of something unreadable passing through his eyes.

He turned toward Emma and spoke carefully, choosing his words with precision.

“From a medical perspective, exchanging saliva can deepen a certain level of bond between partners. However…”

He paused briefly, noticing Emma’s expression remained unchanged, then continued.

“From a sanitary standpoint, the bacterial exposure becomes too complex. It may even lead to unnecessary cross–contamination.

“I’ll take care of it myself. This level of risk isn’t worth it.”

Malrik immediately set his bowl down and waved both hands in protest. “No need, Emma. I was just messing around.

“I’m perfectly capable. There’s no way I can’t even feed myself.

“I’ll eat on my own. Seriously, I’m fine.”

Seeing all three of them hurriedly reclaim their bowls and scramble for excuses, Emma’s lips curved into a smile that cared no

warmth at all.

“Haha.”

Corvin, however, completely failed to notice her displeasure.

Watching Marcus and the others retreat, be pursed his lips and seriously mulled over Emma’s suggestion.

His eyes lingered on her faint smule, and his throat moved slightly.

If Emma feeds me, the might actually not be so bad. But..

With a slightly pained expression, Corvin finally spoke. “Limma, I’m okay with mouth to mouth feeling, but as you leave out the chewing part first?”

Smack!

Before Corvin could even finish speaking, Emma’s fork struck his forehead squarely and without warning, then clattered to the ground with a sharp clang

The impact was sharp and forceful producing a crisp, ringing sound.

“Ouch!”

Corvin grabbed his head, tears welling as he looked at her in disbelief.

“You’ve got some real guts to even say that.”

Emma shot him a sharp glare. “Do you even hear yourself right now?”

Seeing Corvin get hit, the others immediately lowered their heads and focused intently on their meals, not daring to breathe too loudly.

“Emma… you hit me?”

Rubbing his forehead, Corvin looked wounded.

“I wasn’t the only one thinking about it.”

He pointed accusingly at Marcus and Malrik. “They said similar things too.”

Emma has changed. She’s being unfair. She only hits me, not the others.

“They’re not getting away with it either.”

Emma lifted her hand and delivered a quick smack to Marcus, Marik, and Alaric in turn.

“All of you, behave yourselves when you’re eating.

“If anyone dares to start a fight during mealtime again, you’ll be sleeping outside the castle for a whole month.”

She only had two hands, while there were simply too many of them.

The mere thought of serving each person one by one was already enough to make her wrist ache.

Eating under these conditions felt almost impossible for her.

With her warning still hanging in the air, no one dared to act up again.

The dining hall finally fell into a cautious silence.

Jim ate with almost no presence at all.

After dinner, Silas and the others cleared the table.

Emma returned to her room and placed a video call to Ana.

Aria had only just returned the day before.

she wanted to meet Emma outside.

With Gaellard and Andre no longer stationed outside the castle, Emma also felt like going out for a walk.

They quickly arranged the time and meeting place.

The moment she ended the call and turned around, she caught sight of a tall figure stepping out from the shadow beside her bed.

Jim had appeared without a sound, like a ghost materializing in the dark.

Even though Emma was already used to his sudden entrances, her heart still gave a small jolt.

“Jim? Why are you here?”

She pressed a hand to her chest to steady herself, then looked at him in confusion.

At this hour, everyone else should still be downstairs or resting in their own rooms.

Jim stood there quietly. The black–violet outfit he had changed into caught the dim light, giving his cold presence a deeper, more restrained intensity, something almost dangerously alluring.

At her question, his fingers tightened slightly at his side, though his expression remained perfectly composed.

Jim replied, “I have something important to do.”

Emma blinked and stepped closer. “What could possibly be so urgent?

“Can’t it wait until tomorrow?”

Jim’s eyes lowered briefly to her pale neck, and his throat moved faintly as he exhaled slowly, as if making a firm decision.

Then he finally spoke, “I’m here to form a bond with you.”

Emma was at a loss for words.

She froze for a moment, genuinely wondering if she had misheard him.

Almost instinctively, she glanced toward the window.

Outside, night had already settled in—but dinner had only just ended not long ago.
