A Matter of Wife and Love by Mila

Leo reached out and took the bowl.

What happened? Amelie looked at him in surprise. Is he going to throw the soup away? Even if he dislikes me, there’s no need to show it to my face, is there?

She was lost in thought, but next, she saw him taking the bowl and lowering his head to drink the soup.

H-He’s actually drinking the soup I made?

To Amelie, this was a rare occurrence. It was too strange.

“It’s delicious.”

It wasn’t until Giada came over that Amelie came back to her senses. Seeing Giada praising her and smiling at her, she also smiled. “You can have more if you like.”

“Oh, no, I need to lose weight,” Giada refused, twisting her slender waist. All this while, her eyes were hooked on Leo, who was drinking the soup not far away.

Leo had not noticed Giada’s gaze. All his attention was focused on the soup in front of him.

The milky white fish soup was silky smooth and refreshing, with a hint of sweetness in the tenderness, and not all fishy.

Without oil, salt, or seasonings, it not only didn’t affect the taste but also retained the original and authentic fragrance.

Didn’t know Amelie’s cooking skills is this good.

“You are a talented person.” Fiona walked over and hugged Amelie’s shoulder. “Unlike me, I can only sing a few songs and act in a TV drama. I can’t do anything else.”

Her admiration for Amelie in her beautiful eyes came from the heart.

Amelie smiled bashfully. “Actually, I was like you before. My father highly pampered me, and I couldn’t even fry an egg, let alone make fish soup. If it weren’t for—”

She stopped herself in mid-sentence.

Fiona looked at her strangely, not knowing why she had stopped talking.

Meanwhile, Leo slowly pursed his lips and put his attention on the ladies. After listening to their chit-chat, he could guess that Amelie learned cooking after marrying into the Alston Family.

Initially, he detested her, so he never paid attention to her preferences and talents. In his memory, she spent most of her time in the kitchen.
