Chapter 235 Basil's Favorite Food

When Emyr arrived, he caught Charmaine in the middle of watching him and Veronica from the window, her meal in front of her like she was casually observing a TV show.

Emyr sighed in frustration. "That bad?"

He clicked his tongue and said, "Roll down the window. The smell's unbearable."
