Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 577

Stephen took a glance at the meal in front of him and commented, “Looks good but I’m not sure how it’ll taste.”

Serene’s huge eyes lit up as she said, “Hurry up and eat! I’ll have you know that I poured my heart and soul into making this meal and it isn’t anything to scoff at! If you can’t tell how much effort I’ve put into making this, then your tastebuds have some serious issues.”

Stephen chuckled and said, “Little brat, your lowly provocations are useless on me.”

He was such a weird and difficult old man!

Serene stared anxiously at the old man as he tasted some of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes. She asked, “So, what do you think?”

“Not bad but the tomatoes aren’t too fresh.”

Serene then said, “...Try this one then.”

Serene stared anxiously at the old man again and asked, “What do you think? Does it taste good?”

Stephen shook his head and said, “Not as good as the scrambled eggs with tomatoes.”

Serene reluctantly served him a bowl of soup and said, “Drink some soup to calm your nerves. How is that possible though? It tasted delicious when I tried some earlier.”

Stephen frowned after drinking a spoonful of soup.

Serene asked in a concerned tone, “What’s wrong? Does the soup taste bad too?”

“This soup…is still acceptable.”

Serene let out a sigh of relief and said, “Are you trying to scare me to death?”

Stephen chuckled as he thought about just how fun teasing this little brat was. So this was why his emotionally detached apprentice had developed feelings for her.

Stephen asked in a teasing tone, “You’re that worried? Are you really that desperate to know where Wilson is?”

“Of course!”

Serene puffed her little face up before speaking in a slightly depressed tone, “I’ve not seen him for close to a month now… Just what kind of a dumb organization are you guys operating anyway? Why is every single mission that long? You guys aren’t doing anything illegal or unspeakable now, right?”

Stephen rubbed his chin and casually exclaimed, “You know, not only do I know where Wilson is, but I can also send you to him. Do you want that?”

Serene’s dim eyes lit up the instant she heard him say that. She looked up immediately and exclaimed, “Of course I do! Old mister, do you wish to eat anything else? I’ll cook it for you immediately!”

Stephen smiled and stood up. He said, “I’m full.”

“Huh? You’re full? But…”

“Pack your things tonight. I’ll have someone send you to Wilson’s side tomorrow.”

Serene was stunned for a few seconds before she nearly screamed her lungs out from being overjoyed. She then exclaimed, “You can’t go back on your words now, old mister! You need to honor them, okay!”

“Oh please, I’m not as worried about getting fat like you women at my age now. I don’t really mind eating my words, you know.”
