Chapter 149

Meanwhile, Edward, who was in the kitchen, remained clueless about his parents' plan. They were already on the move to end any potential threat to his relationship.

At that moment, he was preparing the last dish.

"Your dad looks pretty serious," Janice casually remarked.

Edward glanced at her. "He's a government official."

A government official?

Janice had heard of this before, but she never knew exactly what Robert did. Still, this wasn't something she could just outright ask, so she let the topic drop.

After washing her hands, she helped carry the finished dishes to the dining table. Each dish was an absolute feast for the senses. She hadn't expected the food to look this good. The only question left was... how did it taste?

"Mr. and Ms. Moore, it's time to eat," Janice called them over.

Just as she spoke, the doorbell rang.

Barbara got up to open the door, but Janice quickly stopped her. "I'll get it. You should sit down."

When she opened the door, she was met with Matilda, who had come bearing gifts.

As soon as they saw each other, Matilda beamed with delight and pulled Janice into a warm hug. "Hello, my sister-in-law."
