Chapter 26 Tasty but Strange

Emyr frowned.

The dish had a delightful aroma, with a chewy yet crisp texture, but there was also an indescribable scent mixed in.

He pointed to the dish and asked Charmaine, “What is this?”

Charmaine blinked and replied evasively, “Do you find it tasty, Mr. Emyr?”

“It’s not bad, but the flavor is a bit strange.”

As he spoke, he took another bite. Alfred and the others opened their mouths to speak but dared not make a sound.

Charmaine saw him swallow and smiled brightly, nodding. “It’s supposed to taste strange. It’s pig intestines, after all. The smell might be because I didn’t clean them well enough.”

As soon as Charmaine finished speaking, Emyr’s expression darkened.

Before he could react, she turned and dashed away.

Alfred and the others hurried to Emyr’s side. “Mr. Emyr, please have some soup! Don’t get upset, don’t get upset.”

Already a distance away, Charmaine turned back to shout, “You never said you don’t eat offal! Just a friendly heads–up, but there are pig intestines in that soup too!”

Having just taken a sip of the soup, Emyr’s anger reached its peak, his handsome features twisting into a grimace as he roared, his voice reverberating throughout the entire villa, “Charmaine Nelson!”

The following morning, Charmaine quietly slipped out of Eastlake before Emyr woke up.
