Chapter 12

The lunch was sumptuous.

Penelope said she was on a diet, so she didn’t join the lunch.

Without her presence. Susan was in a good mood.

Ben sat beside Susan. Although he didn’t say anything, he ladled Susan a bowl of soup.

Looking at that, Charlie couldn’t help but smile.

For example, she didn’t even dare to look at the spinach salad for fear that he would serve it to her,

After a satisfying meal, Susan practically slumped on the chair.

Charlie found it amusing and laughed, saying, “It seems that this chef’s cooking is very much to
