Chapter 51
Madam Langford tasted the chicken soup. Already, a deep frown graced her lips. “Why does this soup taste so nasty?”
Cindy was stunned upon hearing that remark. “T-That’s impossible…” “Did you add anything into the soup?!” Madam Langford started nitpicking at the soup. “You didn’t add any fragrant herbs at all! Did you boil the chicken once with hot water before serving it to me?”
Cindy couldn’t help but stammer. It was impossible for her to answer Madam Langford, as she wasn’t the one who made the soup. “I… I don’t know… I was just experimenting on the soup…”
“You were experimenting on it, yet you dared to serve it to me? What do you think I am? Your guinea pig?” Cindy’s response only succeeded in angering Madam Langford even more.
Cindy was so furious that her face turned a brilliant shade of red. She hated that five-star chef from the bottom of her heart. He screwed up the job, despite having received a hefty payment from her. Not only did she fail to catch any praise from Madam Langford for being a virtuous lady, but she also succeeded in angering the latter even more.
“I’ll throw it right away, Grandma Langford,” Cindy suggested immediately. Tina couldn’t help but interject. “Dumping it is such a waste! If Grandma doesn’t want to drink it, then I’ll have it. I didn’t eat much for breakfast, anyway.” “That’s right. Tina here doesn’t waste food at all,” Madam Langford commented before shooting Cindy a disapproving look. “If you’re bad at cooking, don’t go around wasting food.” Cindy had no choice but to place the thermos flask in front of Tina. “If that’s what you want, Miss Lynd, then you can have it.”
Tina grabbed the flask. Coincidentally, she was feeling quite hungry as well. However, the moment she smelled the chicken soup, she could feel her stomach turning upside down.
“Urk!” Unable to hold herself back, Tina started dry heaving on the spot. novelbin
Meanwhile, Cindy’s face darkened even more at the sight of Tina’s condition. “What exactly do you mean by this, Miss Lynd?!” she asked in irritation.
“I’m so sorry,” Tina apologized , looking slightly embarrassed. “M-My appetite hasn’t been well lately.”
The moment she finished her sentence, she started dry heaving again.
Having observed Tina’s condition, Madam Langford looked like she just realized something. She instantly grabbed the former’s hand and started pelting her with questions.
“Tina, when did your appetite start deteriorating?”
Tina took a moment to ponder over it. “I think it’s been a month. Maybe it’s because of the weather.”
“Have you always been feeling drowsy or dizzy? Has your lower back been sore all this time?” Madam Langford perked up when she heard Tina’s answer, and continued to ask her more questions.
Tina hesitated for a moment before nodding. “I think so.”. “What about your period? Has it arrived yet?”
Perhaps it was due to the fact that Tina had been working hard for her family since young, but her period cycle had always been unstable.
She was already used to the abnormal cycle. Madam Langford’s question served as a reminder for her as she tried her best to recall her last cycle.
“It’s not here yet, but I think it’ll be here soon,” she answered truthfully. “Oh my god,” Madam Langford whispered, staring at Tina’s stomach. She then exclaimed in surprise, “Tina, could you be pregnant?”
Tina was stunned.
“What? Pregnant?! That’s impossible!” Before Tina could realize what was going on, Cindy’s shrill voice knocked her out of her puzzled trance. Madam Langford was slightly annoyed by Cindy’s behavior. “Why are you screaming? Have you forgotten your manners?” she chided, livid.
Cindy covered her mouth immediately upon realizing that she had lost her control in front of Madam Langford. Then, she looked at Samuel and asked, “How can she be pregnant, Samuel?
You’ve been busy lately! It’s impossible for her to be pregnant!”
There was no way Cindy would believe that b*tch Tina would get impregnated by Samuel.
However, Samuel himself was unsure of what was happening.
After all, he and Tina had only done the deed once, even by accident. It happened about a month ago
