Chapter 467 Masculine Presence

Nathaniel washed his hand with clean water, then rolled up his sleeves and began peeling the shrimp.

Christina watched as the food on her plate gradually increased. At first, she wasn’t bothered by it, but soon she couldn’t keep up with the speed at which he was peeling, and her plate quickly became filled with shrimp.

Once done peeling the shrimp, Nathaniel reached for the crabs, placing the large, meaty crab legs onto her plate.

Soon, Christina had a pile of food in front of her. She couldn’t help but complain, I can’t finish all this. You can stop peeling now.

It’s fine. My hands are already dirty anyway, so I’ll just peel some more.Nathaniel didn’t stop. Instead, he continued removing the crab shells and placed all the meat on her plate.

We can take the leftovers home if we can’t finish everything,Christina suggested, as wasting food wasn’t her habit.

He snickered. If you can’t finish it, you’ll have to foot the bill. I don’t take leftovers.”

Christina felt she wouldn’t be able to consume the other dishes after she finished the big plate of crab meat. After taking a few bites, she started tasting the other dishes.

Upon trying out all the food on the table, she noticed that after Nathaniel was done peeling the shrimp and washing his hands, he had been sitting there, watching her eat quietly without moving or talking.

Christina picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her mouth. Her cheeks, bulging on both sides, made her look like an adorable, innocent little bunny.

Nathaniel held a napkin and gently wiped the corner of her mouth. You’re a grownup, yet you eat like a child, getting food stains everywhere.”

His doting voice made him sound like an elder caring for someone younger. An unusual hint of warmth filled his eyes as he spoke.

Christina swallowed the delicious food in her mouth before asking him, Aren’t you going to eat? It’s wasteful to have so much food left.
