Chapter 1153
After cleaning up, Justin was worried that she might overexert
herself, so he gently carried her to the dining room for dinner.
He had been busy all day, and his usually pristine white shirt now
gave off a warm scent mixed with his sweat.
To Bella’s surprise, she felt a little lightheaded. Instead of finding it
unpleasant, she nestled her nose against his chest, sniffing like an
eager kitten.
“What’s this? Are you trying to eat me?” Justin teased her with a smile
as his lips brushed her forehead.
“Even if I wanted to, wouldn’t you have to take a proper bath first?
You’re such a stinky man,” Bella said, blushing and turning away. “You
usually keep yourself quite clean. How come you didn’t bother to take
a shower this time?”
Justin simply replied. “I didn’t have the time. I’ll go wash up after we finish eating.”
Bella pursed her lips, feeling warm inside.
A spread of exquisite dishes filled the table, some of which were
prepared in advance by Wilma and only needed reheating, making the
preparation quick.
“Wow! Wilma, you’re amazing!” Bella sat at the dining table, clapping
like a happy schoolgirl.
“Madam, don’t flatter me. Your culinary skills surpass mine by far!
Several dishes here are your brother’s favorites, and you’re the one
who taught me how to make them. Have you forgotten?” Wilma
laughed genuinely.
“Is that so? I must have forgotten.” Bella laughed in response and
shifted her attention back to her meal, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Although Bella knew Wilma was complimenting her, such words
would inevitably dredge up some unpleasant memories between
them.
Justin understood the pain she had endured before, his eyes hinting
at bitterness as he gently wiped her lips with a napkin.
Just as he was about to speak, Bella quickly fed him a piece of
shrimp and said, “No need to apologize. Remember, we agreed not to dwell on the past.”
Justin relaxed his grip, forcing a smile as he chewed the meat.
Indeed, nothing tasted as good as the dishes prepared by his beloved
partner.
Just then, the sound of the door opening echoed from the foyer, and three robust men burst in, instantly bringing a festive atmosphere to
the villa, reminiscent of New Year’s celebrations.
“Wow, Bella, you’re so heartless. You’re eating all this food by
yourself. Isn’t this too much?!”
Axel exclaimed as he hurried over and took a piece of bread to eat
after not having eaten all day due to reviewing case files..
Ralph followed closely behind and quickly devoured a chicken
drumstick with the intensity of someone who had just completed a
marathon.
“I’ve been interrogating criminals all day. My mouth is as dry as a
desert. Chewing on some meat will help satisfy my thirst!”
The two privileged young masters of the Thompson family ate so
much that they could be mistaken for starving men who had been
stranded on an island, leaving Justin and lan speechless.
lan remarked. “They are like black holes, devouring everything.”
