Curtis lifted his gaze from his phone screen, his lazy eyes sweeping over the trio. "Since when did I have so many wives?"

Leanne nearly choked on her drink.

"Is it only your wife who gets to enjoy your cooking?" Devin asked.

"What else?" Curtis replied with an air of 'my wife rules the world'.

Devin attempted to guilt-trip him with their lifelong brotherhood. "Come on, man. It's great you treat your wife right, but doesn't our years of friendship mean anything? Not even worth a plate of chicken noodle soup?"

Curtis coldly responded, "Talk to me about that after you cough up the investment of six hundred million dollars."

Devin immediately backed off. "Forget I said anything."

Joy cleared her throat, stepping into the fray. "And you haven't given me six hundred million, yet you've charmed my best friend. If I didn't give the green light, this wedding wouldn't have happened."

While pointing at Leanne's rosy, glowing cheeks, Joy added, "Look at this sweet face. Doesn't it deserve a plate of chicken noodle soup?"

"Sure does," Curtis replied indifferently, "She's already eating it."

Joy was left speechless.

After both got defeated in their arguments, Selina pondered before giving up. "Fine, if you're not eating, neither am I."

Leanne couldn't stop laughing at their pitiful expressions.
