“Okay, great,” Josh Batton said.
“Annabeth likes pork ribs, but I only have a small portion, so you’ll have to eat less,” Sharon Lindt said.
“Okay, I’ve got it,” he replied.
Annabeth Cates felt so happy being incredibly pampered by everyone around her.
Meanwhile, the female production crew members couldn’t help lamenting about their own lives.
They couldn’t believe what they were hearing.
They were also married women, but why was Annabeth’s mother-in-law so supportive but theirs weren’t?
After briefly chatting with his mother, Josh hung up the phone before standing up and gazing down at his wife.
“It will be lunchtime soon, so I should start preparing now.”
Annabeth gently patted the seat he had just vacated. “Hmm, there’s no rush. You can sit for a while longer.”
“No, the dishes you want to eat are a little more complicated and would require more preparation time. Pregnant women tend to get hungry easily,” he said.
"Need my help?” she asked.
“Sit here and relax. I didn’t marry you so you could help out in the kitchen.”
Annabeth didn’t know how to respond to that.
“Be a good girl and keep yourself entertained. I’ll go start cooking now. All you need to do as my wife is to sit still and look pretty. As for putting bread on the table and doing chores around the house, leave all of that to me.”
With that, Josh directly walked into the kitchen.
