Chapter 163


He gently nudged Allison towards the bathroom. "Come on, Allie, freshen up a bit first."

After getting ready, Allison settled at the dining table. Joshua had whipped up a delicious spread: scrambled eggs, salt and pepper pork ribs, spicy shrimp, and a hearty chicken soup—all of Allison's favorites. Her stomach was growling since she'd skipped breakfast, and the face wash had woken her up completely.

She eagerly picked up her fork and started digging in. Joshua sat across from her, watching with amusement and affection dancing in his eyes.

"Is it good?" he asked softly.

"Mmm, absolutely!" Allison nodded with enthusiasm. "Your cooking always hits the spot, Joshua."

"Make sure you eat, too," Allison said warmly. "I don't want you going hungry."

"Allie," Joshua's voice held a playful note.

"Yeah? What's going on?" she asked, staring at him curiously.

Joshua chuckled, a warmth in his gaze. "You already filled me up last night. Now it's my turn to make sure you're full."

"Oops—cough, cough..." Allison choked on her soup, coughing as her cheeks flushed bright red. "You..." she stammered, biting her lip in embarrassment. "Why would you say something like that!" Joshua laughed softly, full of affection. "Alright, alright, I'll drop it. Enjoy your meal."
