Maddox looked at the red pot in front of him. It seemed that everything in the pot was stained red. Before he could react, Vera had added extra chili. Then, she said with a smile, "We are having spicy sausage and kale soup. It has to be extra spicy, or else, what's the point?"

After that, she flashed a wide smile at Kimberly. She looked very innocent, nobody had the heart to blame her for anything.

Kimberly stole a glance at Maddox. When she saw no expression on his handsome face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the situation changed completely after Maddox ate a piece of spicy sausage. His fork stopped in mid-air. It looked like there was smoke coming out of his ears.

It was so spicy, Vera kept blowing air from her mouth. However, she loved the taste.

Kimberly didn't dare to start eating and quietly observed Maddox. When she saw what was happening, she suddenly realized something. "You can't take spicy food, can you?" Maddox furrowed his brows slightly. He did not answer her, but his expression gave him away.

Something came to Kimberly's mind. She got up and asked the waiter for a glass of ice water for Maddox. "If you can't eat it, spit it out quickly and take a sip of ice water."

Maddox was brought up to be well-mannered. He had never spat out food in public. However, at this moment, Kimberly was asking him to do just that. He frowned and did not move.

"Hurry up and spit it out." Kimberly placed her hand on his lips. Maddox looked a little reluctant. In the end, Sam handed him a tissue. Maddox spat the bite of sausage out and chugged down the glass of ice water.

His face was bright red. Vera was engrossed in the spicy food and only just realized what had happened. She was afraid to continue eating and looked on in a panic.

"I'm sorry, Young Master Yardley. If I knew you couldn't eat spicy food, I wouldn't have ordered them to be extra spicy."

he wasn't looking well, so she quickly gathered their things and said, "Vera, don't be nervous. Stay here and eat first. I'll send him home, then I'll come back and accompany you."
