Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 173

“Delicious fried chicken! “

The fried chicken was served ten minutes later, and Nellie hopped around in glee. Neil was just as elated, but he still snuck an apprehensive glance at Luna. “ Mommy…“

“You can eat, “ said Luna with a small smile. She was already seated at the dining table.

“Here you go, Sirs. Have a taste of this mushroom soup,“ said Lily enthusiastically as she set down bowls of soup in front of everyone at the table. “Ms. Luna was afraid that fried chicken alone would be too heavy, so she made this mushroom soup herself! “

Adrian picked up a spoonful of soup and took a sip. “ Not bad.“

Joshua, however, sat in silence. He caught a glimpse of Luna, who had been trying to keep her right hand under the table and out of sight. “What’s wrong with your hand?“

Luna shot him an impassive glance. “Nothing. I ‘m just not hungry.“

“Not hungry, or did you injure yourself?“ Joshua’s dark eyes seemed to see right through her. “Lift your hand.“

Luna frowned. She did not want to do as he said, but everyone was staring at her at this point. She let out a sigh and reluctantly lifted her hand from under the table.

Her right hand was wrapped in a bandage.

Nellie was so shocked that she dropped her chicken drumstick. “What happened, Aunty?“

Neil immediately leaped off his seat, rushed to Luna’s side, and grabbed hold of her wrist. “Are you hurt?“

Seeing her children’s reactions, Luna felt a tingle of warmth in her heart. She shook her head in response. “I’m fine. A drop of hot oil accidentally splashed onto me, that’s all.“

“Accidentally? “ Joshua gave her a steely glance, then turned to glance at Lily. “It’s not the first time the both of you entered a kitchen. How can two handy cooks make a rookie mistake like this?“
