Chapter 32: Dinner

Killian's POV

I twirled the pasta with my fork with a bored expression on my face. I had no appetite to eat, but my mother forced me to join her for dinner.

I thought she had something important to say to me, but I was surprised when I saw that Giselle would be joining us for dinner.

My Beta had mentioned to me before that my mother and Giselle are getting along pretty well.

I also noticed that the two of them have been spending so much time together in the last week. I just pretended that I hadn't noticed this and busied myself for work.

There are a lot of things I had to handle anyway so I got no time to spare for other matters.

"Killian, you've gotten so thin. What happened?" Mother sounded so alarmed as she looked at my face. "Giselle, why are you not taking care of my son?"

I was about to tell her that I was fine. I have just become busy lately, but I was stopped short when she suddenly asked Giselle a weird question.

Take care of me? Why is it Giselle's job to take care of me?

Giselle softly smiled and dabbed a napkin on her mouth as she slowly faced my mother. "I'm sorry Mother, I've been doing everything I can to support him. Killian, are you not eating the meals that I have sent for you?" Giselle questioned me. I was tongue-tied as my eyes darted back and forth between my mother and Giselle. "What is going on here?"
