Jacob rinsed his mouth several times by the toilet bowl until the weird taste in his mouth was finally washed away.

When he returned to the dining table, he no longer had any appetite as he looked at the tasty dishes.

Angeline discarded the burnt prawns and felt bad upon seeing Jacob’s pale face. She served him another bowl of soup and said, “You just vomited all the food you ate. Have some soup to replenish your energy.”

As soon as the bowl was placed in front of him, Jacob retched and said with a troubled expression, “Angie, I don’t think I can eat anymore.”

Upon hearing that, Angeline quickly took the bowl away from him and remarked, “Then, you should go and rest on the couch.”

“Okay. Thank you, Angie,” he said apologetically. He didn’t want to disappoint Angeline, but he felt terrible at that moment and didn’t have the energy.

With that thought in mind, he turned around and shot daggers at Evander. I’m here suffering, yet he and Floretta are savoring the dishes. How outrageous!

The mere sight of Evander enjoying Angeline’s cooking caused fury to swell in Jacob’s heart, and he spun on his heels to leave the dining room. This is unbelievable! I will get my revenge sooner or later!

After dinner, Floretta insisted on helping Angeline to wash the dishes. Failing to dissuade the stubborn little girl, Angeline gave in upon seeing that Evander wasn’t against it. She brought Floretta to the kitchen and helped her roll up her sleeves before teaching her how to scrub the dishes step by step.

Floretta was a smart little girl, and she mastered the skills quickly.

It was already past ten at night when they finished cleaning up.

Considering that Jacob still had to work early the next morning, Angeline stepped out of the kitchen and offered, “Go on home. The next time you come, I’ll make some more delicacies to compensate you.”

Jacob’s mood was lifted when he heard Angeline’s words.
