The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 782

He then smoothly took my hand, pulled me into a chair by the desk, and held a piece of fish to my lips with his fork. "Try it. It's boneless."

"I don't..." I wanted to say I didn't want it.

But the moment I opened my mouth, he slipped the piece of fish inside.

Spit it out? ...I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Food cost money, after all. And honestly... Ferris's fish was actually quite delicious.

The meat was tender and practically melted down my throat.

I decided to let that one bite slide, but I refused to eat anymore.

I spoke up again: "I'm not hungry. I don't want..."

Before I could finish the sentence, Ferris silenced me once more.

He slipped a spoonful of shrimp bisque into my mouth, looking at me with those smiling, seductive eyes. "Is it good, Moon?"

It tasted terrible!

I strongly suspected he was doing this on purpose!

Deliberately shutting me up so I couldn't complain!

But I couldn't bring myself to say it tasted terrible, because the bisque was genuinely amazing. More importantly, my appetite had fully woken up. Even if I wanted to push the food away now, I couldn't.

I wanted to eat.

I snatched the spoon right out of Ferris's hand and began eating the soup. I ushered Amber to sit down with me. "Amber, I can't finish this all. Help me out."

Amber didn't hold back. As she ate, she gushed, "I'm really living the high life thanks to you, Selena. Director Sterling isn't just a master with a scalpel, he's a wizard in the kitchen. How is every single dish so delicious? I'm going to pass out from how good this is."

It really wasn't that dramatic. Amber ate her own boyfriend's cooking every single day, and she loved sharing Marcus's affectionate meals with me. I had tasted them, and Marcus's culinary skills were definitely superior to Ferris's.
