Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 76

Back at home, Lydia sprawled over the couch in a lifeless fashion, whereas Godfrey was staring at the TV gloomily. Two unfinished bowls of porridge and a plate of pickled vegetables sat on the table.

Yvonne's anger spiked when she took in the scene. Could they not take care of themselves without Samuel? Did they really want him to make their meals for the rest of their lives?

"Mom, don't tell me that you forgot how to cook after not going into the kitchen for a few years? Are you going to starve to death when Samuel doesn't fix your meals anymore?" Yvonne lamented as she cleared the table.
