Chapter 690

Eve's odd behavior would throw the younger generation of the family into a state of chaos.

Therefore, instead of regarding Howard as a coward, Amelia felt that it would be more appropriate to describe him as sacrificing himself in exchange for the peace within his family.

Upon arriving at the supermarket, Amelia was responsible for pushing the shopping cart while Howard was lost staring at each of the signboard on top of him.

At the sight of this, Amelia smiled and said, "Dad, the fresh food department is on your left. Just follow me."

"Alright." Howard nodded in relief.

"Dad, is there anything that you are refrained from consuming?"

If it was in the past, Amelia could more or less tell his preference. However, since he had pledged himself to God, Amelia was not sure if his preference had changed.

Howard replied meaningfully, "The most important thing is your sincerity towards deities. It doesn't matter whether you've consumed meat or alcohol. Hence, I don't have anything in particular that I can't eat." "Well, then I'll get some beef and pork. Um... I think some chicken will be good..."

Seeing that Amelia was engaged in picking stuff over the freezer, Howard began feeling bored.

He habitually put his hand behind his back and followed Amelia at her back as if he was supervising her work.

Amelia had came to realize this in a short while. She thought that she might be able to make use of Howard's help as she asked, "Dad, can I trouble you by asking you for some help?"

"Go ahead!" Howard replied without hesitation.

"Can you go and pick some shallots and garlic for me? I will need them for dinner later. Oh yeah, don't forget to bring me ginger too!"

"Shallots, garlic and ginger." Howard murmured to himself before he turned around to leave.

"Eh, dad!" Seeing that Howard was lost in direction, Amelia quickly pulled his arm and said, "Wet market is on your right."

Howard sighed, "I had not been out for quite some time. It seems like my mind is functioning slow now."
