Chapter 482
“It tastes the same but it doesn‘t taste as delicious as it did before. Could it be that your cooking skills got affected because of your injury?” Josiah added, “Edith, let the chef prepare our food the next time.”
Looking devastated, Meredith stared at him and asked, “Joe, do you not like my cooking anymore?”
He had been enjoying her cooking all these while and had praised her cooking too. But all he did was complain about her cooking today. “It could be that I‘m injured and I become a bit pickier with the food.” Josiah leaned into her and kissed Meredith on the forehead. “Sorry, I didn‘t mean to hurt you. Don‘t be mad, hmm?”
Even though she felt a bit wronged, Meredith responded, “I’m not mad, just a bit disappointed.”
“Don‘t be disappointed, Edith. It‘s my problem, not yours.” Since the kiss did not work on her, Josiah pulled her into his arms and said, “Once I recover and get better, my appetite will come back and I would certainly crave your cooking.”
Meredith nodded.
She hoped that it was really because he was sick and did not have much of an appetite.
Whilst Meredith was drowning in her sadness, Josiah was secretly tugging at the corners of his lips.
For the sake of stopping Meredith from cooking for him, Josiah could only come up with such a plan.
Right when he felt relieved, Josiah suddenly remembered what Meredith said to him the other day, ‘Don‘t lie to me, if not, I’ll cut ties with you.’
Josiah knew that he had lied to her again.
But quickly, he comforted himself that he was lying to her for her sake.
“Edith, let‘s continue eating.” Josiah patted her back.
“But the dishes don‘t taste good today. I‘ll have Lily make them for you again.”
