Cynthia knew what the owner meant and smiled faintly. “Well, I can eat two portions of this by myself.
The owner nodded and gestured toward the table and chairs beside him. “All right. Please wait for a moment.”
Cynthia led Liam to the chair.
The lights were dim, and the table was made of wood, which appeared old.
Fortunately, it wasn’t greasy, which made Liam less tense,
After sitting down, Cynthia rested her chin on her hands, feeling happy.
The owner was very efficient, and the crab cakes were promptly served.
Cynthia offered a bite to Liam. “Want to try?”
Liam saw the food, which was not related to crab at all, and frowned with disgust, refusing to eat it
“It’s really tasty. Take a bite. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it,” Cynthia said, leaning forward.
Liam tasted the food as she watched him expectantly.
The strong smell made him frown even more.
Cynthia had been observing Liam’s expression. Seeing that he really didn’t like it, she took a piece of paper and put it next to his mouth. “It seems you don’t really like it. Spit it out. We’ll go for something else later,”
After Liam spat out the crab cake, Cynthia casually discarded them into the trash can and proceeded to eat the one Liam had previously bitten.
Then, she hummed contentedly.
was surprised and smiled.
Cynthia didn’t mind and ate the crab cake he had taken a bite of Upon seeing that, Liam was su
They walked around the food market. Liam didn’t like the food here, so he mostly watched Cynthia eat.
She had hot dogs, a burger, cheese fries, and more.
Half an hour later, Cynthia was completely stuffed.
Her stomach couldn’t handle it, but her taste buds were still craving more.
Liam got worried that she would overeat, so he quickly pulled her away when she eagerly headed toward the next snack.
Back in the car, Cynthia touched her belly and felt a little disappointed. “I have one more to eat.”
“Eating too much will cause stomach discomfort Liam got into the car and put on Cynthia’s seat belt before putting on his own,
When he was about to start the car, he noticed Cynthia unfastening her seat belt beside him.
He immediately reached out to stop her.
Cynthia looked at the palm on her hand and explained, “I’m too full. I feel uncomfortable with my seat belt secured,”
“No,” Liam refused firmly, then caught sight of a pharmacy not far away.
He gently rubbed Cynthia’s head and said, “Wait for me here”
He then stepped out of the car.
A few minutes later, he returned with digestive tablets and a bottle of water.
Liam got into the car, opened the package of digestive tablets, unscrewed the bottle, and handed it to Cynthia. Take it, or you’ll feel uncomfortable when you sleep later.”
Liam’s thoughtfulness made Cynthia feel warm, so she kept her seat belt on and took the medicine without hesitation.
Seeing that she had taken it, Liam immediately drove back to the Sullivan residence.
While driving. Cynthia noticed a high–end restaurant. She realized that she had eaten alone, and Liam hadn’t eaten anything yet. Feeling sorry for him, she decided to stop and get some food for him.
Liam refused directly. “I’ve called Grandma to save some food for me.”
In that case, Cynthia didn’t insist.
When they arrived back at the Sullivan residence, mealtime had already passed. David and Jasmine had already finished their meal, and the servant served Liam his food.
David had just finished washing up when Cynthia went to his room. She carefully

“Grandpa David, can you feel anything” Cynthia asked gently.
David felt it carefully and replied, “I feel that the spot where you inserted the needle is warm”
Hearing this, Cynthia nodded. “That’s right.”
Afterward, Cynthia stood beside David and regularly inquired how he was feeling from time to time
Meanwhile, downstairs, Jasmine just returned from a walk, and a white golden retriever ran in as soon as she opened the door.
The dog ran around the living room and then ran directly to Liam and kept going around the dining table.
Liam abruptly stopped eating his expression turning cold. He asked sternly, “Grandma, where did you get this dog Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Although he didn’t have a profound mysophobia, he didn’t like to come into contact with dogs, especially with this one being so enthusiastic. Its mouth kept brushing against his trouser, leaving it covered in saliva.
Liam resisted the urge to kick it away.
Jasmine casually replied as she sat down at the dining table, “My friend is currently busy, so she’s asked me to look after her dog for a while. It’s more obedient than you, despite being just a dog.”
After that, Jasmine clapped her hands and gestured to the golden retriever, saying. “Rocky, come here.”
Rocky heard Susan’s voice and quickly ran to her, throwing itself on her leg.
Liam was unsure if the dog was in the midst of shedding its fur, but he noticed a few strands wafting through the air as it ran
Liam was speechless and frowned. “Grandma, you’re too old to take care of such a big pet. You should consider leaving it to a pet store to look after.”
Jasmine refused. “No, I can’t let it go. This dog is so cute.”
Then, Jasmine glared at Liam, clearly unsatisfied. “Besides, I’m old now and can only get a dog to ease my boredom. It would be great if you have a child

Jasmine had frequently brought up this topic with Liam in the past few years.
She had previously encouraged Liam to get married and have a child, and now that he was married, she started urging them to have a child,
Liam closed his eyes silently and pondered, ‘Why is she talking about this topic again!
“You’ve been married for so long and still don’t have a child. Do you have an issue?” Susan asked, noticing Liam’s silence and feeling a bit concerned.
Faced with Jasmine’s nonsensical behavior, Liam couldn’t do anything but wear a gloomy expression.
He could only reply helplessly, “Cynthia and I were just recently married. How can we possibly have a child so soon!”
Liam didn’t want to admit that they did
did not have any contraceptives. Jasmine was constantly anxious about it, and he feared she might act Impulsively.
It would be best to wait until Cynthia was actually pregnant before sharing the news to avoid potential disappointment for David and Jasmine.
Jasmine was surprised when she heard what Liam said. “It’s been nearly three months. That’s long enough. It only took me one month to conceive your father. Your mother conceived you as well in just one night.”
The more Jasmine spoke, the more she sensed that Liam was in poor health. “No, let’s go to an andrologist one of these days. If you feel embarrassed to have Cynthia accompany you, I’ll go with you instead.”
Liam felt that her words were becoming absurd, causing him to feel overwhelmed.
Hence, he stopped arguing with Jasmine and left quickly after eating
