Then, Jay took the ingredients and walked over to the charcoal grill. He elegantly sat on the spare stool next to it and started focusing on grilling.
On the other side, Josephine was holding onto the barbecue materials and looked like a diligent wife. Then, she said to Zayne, “Zayne, you’re weak right now, so go and get some rest. I’ll call you over when it’s ready.”
Zayne hugged Josephine and kissed her on the forehead. “I truly am the luckiest guy for marrying you, Josie.”
Josephine smiled more beautifully than a blooming flower.
Zayne swaggered to the side to rest. He did not forget to boast about his position in the family hierarchy to Angeline. “Look at your brother here, Angeline. There are certain skills in training your wife. Don’t you think I’m amazing?”
Then, he glanced at Jay and proudly said, “Isn’t Master Ares a prince who has the whole world in his palm? He still ended up having to serve the Severe family’s littlest snotface.”
Angeline glared at Zayne and inquired, “You’re a big boy now. Why are you sitting and resting at the side? Aren’t you embarrassed to let Josie take care of your needs?”
Zayne looked at Angeline somewhat speechlessly. “I haven’t even commented on anything about you, yet you’ve attacked me? The males work outside, and the females work inside. As Madam Ares, you’re asking your man to handle such boring, uninteresting tasks? Look at all those young girls and look at the words written all over their faces.”
Angeline looked at the colorfully dressed girls whose eyes were full of pity and sympathy. They were all looking at Jay.
“What’s written on their faces?” Angeline asked indignantly.
“They’re saying, ‘Master Jay is such an excellent man. If you don’t know how to appreciate him, then let us do it for you’.”
Angeline proceeded to kick Zayne’s buttocks. “You’re asking for it.”
After the violent outburst, she thought that his words somewhat made sense after carefully thinking it through.
Hence, she walked over to Jay with a gloomy face. Jay saw Angeline’s sunken expression and his handsome face instantly darkened. He asked in anger, “Did Zayne bully you?”
Judy was stunned as she muttered, “Well, she’s not the one I’m giving it to.”
“I don’t eat such food, sorry,” Jay said unceremoniously.
Judy stood there awkwardly, her face turning green and red alternatively.
Cole showed up out of nowhere, grabbed the barbecued food off Judy’s plate, and gobbled on it.
Then, he commented in a gentlemanly manner, “Your grilled pork patties are delicious, Judy. It’s his loss if he doesn’t have a bite.”
How dare he say it was Jaybie’s loss?
Angeline glanced at Cole provocatively and walked toward the feast spread out on the table. She selected the most delicate cut of meat and coated it with light seasoning before returning to the charcoal grill. Then, she went into her serious mode.
