Seeing the displeased look on Audrey's face, Eliza was fully satisfied. 'So, Audrey isn't as unaffected as she seems, she thought.

With a gentle smile, Eliza said sweetly, "I never knew Dominic could cook! I wonder if he's any good. Audrey, would you help me judge his cooking?" Eliza knew perfectly well that Dominic had never once cooked for Audrey. On the contrary, it was Audrey who had repeatedly prepared meals for him.

Asking Audrey to "judge the cooking" was just a way to rub it in.

Emily couldn't help but roll her eyes and muttered, "This Eliza really has no shame, snatching Audrey's fiancé and then showing off shamelessly. Who does she think she's fooling?"

Emily was about to step in, but Audrey spoke first, her tone indifferent. "Since it's for you, why don't you enjoy it on your own? I'll just grab something from the cafeteria."

With that, Audrey caught a glimpse of a small bear sticker on the lunchbox in Eliza's hands. And a mocking smile flickered on her face.

Eliza mistook her expression as feigned indifference and felt even more triumphant, ready to say more.
