Chapter 26

Bella’s POV:

“Why aren’t you eating?” Herbert asked me.

“Eat, eat,” I quickly nodded, took a bite of the vegetable with my chopsticks, and put it in my mouth. This vegetable is more delicious than the ones I ate before. I couldn’t help picking up another pair of chopsticks But… no matter how delicious it was, it was just vegetables.
