Rosie glanced at the food on her plate, then at her favorite dishes on the table, Lucas, none of the food you gave me is what I like.”
Lucas poured her another glass of water, “Even if you don’t like it, you have to eat it. These dishes are good for your health”
Rosie had a serious illness when she was young, leaving her weak afterwards Since then, Lucas had been in charge of her diet, deciding what she ate. In order to take better care of her, Lucas even got an international nutritionist certificate
Rosie looked at the feast on the table, “There’s so much good food today, can’t you compromise a bit and let me eat some of my favorite dishes?”
Lucas firmly replied, “No!”
Rosie felt wronged by Lucas’s response and turned to Cornelia to complain, “Cornelia, your husband doesn’t restrict you like this, does he?”
Cornelia, although sitting at the dining table, was lost in her own thoughts and didn’t hear Rosie’s words.
Rosie nudged her lightly, “Cornelia, your husband just left and you’re already missing him?”
Cornelia snapped back to reality. “No, stop joking with me.”
Rosie asked again, “What’s your husband busy with that he had to leave you so soon?”
Cornelia explained, “He needs to go abroad to handle some important matters, so he has to rush over”
Rosie said, “Oh, I see. I was wondering why your husband, who loves you so much, would be willing to leave you. But aren’t you his assistant? Why didn’t you go abroad with him?”
Cornelia was not only Marcus‘ wife but also his assistant. Ever since she had been with Marcus, wherever Marcus went to work, he would take her with him. This was the first time since Cornelia became Marcus‘ assistant that he needed to go on a business trip without her.
Cornelia didn’t want to overthink it, but her mind was filled with various thoughts that made her feel upset.
Hannah, noticing Cornelia’s mood, said, “The flight from here to overseas is long and tiring. I guess Marcus probably didn’t want to tire Cornelia out, so he didn’t bring her along”
Rosie added, “That’s good. He’s not here, so you can enjoy yourself freely.”
Lucas quickly served Rosie some food, “Not everyone is like you, wishing their husband was away on business every day.”
Rosie replied, “I don’t wish for you to be on business every day. Only when you overly restrict my freedom, do I wish for you to be away.”
Cornelia watched their bickering and smiled without saying a word. novelbin
Steven also served Hannah some food, “Eat up, we need to go back to Harbor City after we finish. I have an important meeting tomorrow morning.”
Hannah said, “I have nothing to do right now. I want to stay in the Capital for a few more days before leaving.”
Steven put his arm around her waist, “You want to stay in the Capital? With whom? Cornelia or some other man?”
Hannah pushed his hand away, “Steven, are you out of your mind? You’ve arranged so many people around me, don’t you know whether I can meet other
men?”
Steven was slightly taken aback by Hannah’s outburst, then he pulled her back into his arms, “Honey, do you know who you’re talking to?”
“Cornelia, Rosie, I’m full. You guys continue.” Cornelia said. This time, Hannah wasn’t threatened by Steven. She simply put down her knife and fork and
left
Rosie asked, “What’s wrong with Hannah?”
Lucas served her some more food, “Just focus on your meal. President Dixon knows how to handle it.”
Rosie wanted to say something else, but seeing that Cornelia remained silent, she calmed down as well.
