Chapter 624 Did She Miss Him?

The plate of fried eggs in front of Rose looked... reasonably okay.

"Hurry, sit down." Clover was eager and couldn't wait to receive praise from Rose.

He personally handed the fork to Rose and watched as she took a bite of the egg. "How is it? How is it?" he asked.

He felt that he had already used up ten percent of the skills he learned.

Who knew how many eggs he messed up during that hour in the kitchen? But this time, it was actually successful, and he could even earn Rose's praise... right?

But as soon as Rose took a bite, she heard a crunching sound.

The sound wasn't loud, but Clover was right next to Rose, so he heard it clearly.

Even Elijah, who was nearby, vaguely heard it.

The most unsettling thing that happened was when everything suddenly went quiet.

Rose felt a rush of panic and instinctively stopped moving her mouth. She thought that she had bitten down on a small stone, but how could there be a stone?

Rose thought about it—it had to be the eggshell.

Eating eggshells should be fine, right? They would get broken down by stomach acid anyway, and it was better than spitting it out and making Clover feel awkward!

Yes, she shouldn't embarrass him!

Rose wore a smile on her face that gradually looked more natural. She moved her mouth a bit, planning to keep chewing and intended to swallow, pretending that it tasted good.

But just as she was about to make a move, the two spoke in unison, "Spit it out!" How could they not understand what Rose was thinking?

She only acted like the eggshell didn't exist to avoid hurting Clover's feelings.

Rose froze for a moment, realizing she had been caught. After a brief hesitation, she spit out the eggshell. But really, there weren't going to be that many eggshells in a plate of fried eggs, right?

It was probably a coincidence that she tasted it with the very first bite.

After that, it definitely wouldn't happen again.

She took her second bite, this time chewing a little more than before. Rose earnestly savored the taste of the fried eggs and quickly thought of words of praise in her mind.

She didn't think she would hear that crunching sound again.

All actions came to a standstill once again.

Rose noticed out of the corner of her eye that Clover's smile had become rigid.
