Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 110

The taste had a strangely familiar feeling.

t was as if she had tasted it somewhere before.

Eliza felt something was off and took another sip.

he wasn’t a professional food critic, so her taste buds didn’t reach the level of an expert, nor could she categorize flavors.

The second sip gave her that subtle sense of familiarity, but it quickly faded away.

Maybe all ginseng soups tasted alike, she thought.

he put down the bowl of ginseng chicken soup and said, “It’s fine.”

Only then did Calvin turn around and head to the kitchen.

Jancy also took a sip and said, “It’s a little sweet, did Calvin add sugar?”

This child, he knows his dad has to watch his sugar intake, yet he still adds sugar?”

liza casually reminded Mr. Young, “Uncle Young, you should drink less.”

The meal was quite abundant, and according to Nancy, four of the dishes were made by Calvin.

Coincidentally, those four dishes were all Eliza’s favorites.

f it weren’t for knowing how deeply Calvin cared for Medea, Eliza might have thought something was off.

What surprised Eliza was that Calvin’s cooking was decent, though the flavors were generally on the sweeter side.

ortunately, Nancy had made a few dishes herself, so there was enough variety for Mr. Young to enjoy.

While they were still eating, Calvin’s phone rang.

liza, sitting next to him, immediately saw the name on the screen.

Calvin stood up and went outside to take the call, staying for quite a while,

diza continued eating without paying much attention.

Nancy, however, grumbled, “Calvin, really. What phone call is so important that he’s been gone for so long? He hasn’t even eaten! This weather, the food’s getting cold fast!”

Was Medea’s call not important?

Calvin was indeed gone for a while, and by the time he returned, they had almost finished eating.

“Why didn’t you at least put on a jacket before going out to take the call? What if you catch a cold?”

“It’s fine.”

Eliza thought it wasn’t an issue.

After all, if you cared about someone, even a simple drink could make it feel worthwhile.

Eliza hadn’t planned to stay long, and she was thinking about how to excuse herself when Calvin came in with his jacket, saying, “I have to go handle

omething, Dad, happy birthday.”

You’re leaving already?” Nancy asked, clearly reluctant.

Ir. Young didn’t show any change in expression; whether Calvin stayed or left didn’t seem to matter to him.

He asked. “Are you sure you want to see her?”

…Of course.”

‘Alright, I’ll take you, but no matter what happens, hold it together.”

He meant it. Calvin led Medea back to Mr. Young’s house.

Nancy, thinking Eliza had left something behind, came to open the door with a smile. “Eliza, did you forget something?”

When she opened the door and saw Calvin, she paused for a moment. “Calvin, why are you back? Didn’t Eliza come with you?”

Medea peered out from behind Calvin. “Hi, Nancy.”
