The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 2060

"Please have a seat."

Beatrice and Cedric sat on each end of the long table, while Lucas Melody sat on the side, facing Stella.

Only after Beatrice dug into her food did the rest of them begin to eat. Melody stood up to serve a bowl of chicken soup to the elderly lady.

"Grandma, please have more soup. I oversaw the cook making it. We took out all of the bones from the chicken and made sure the soup had thickened before taking it off the heat. I'm sure you'll love it!"

"Thank you, my sweet child. You should eat, too." Beatrice happily accepted the bowl, took a small sip of the soup, and nodded in satisfaction. "Mh, this soup is indeed delicious. It's full of the taste of the chicken. I love how it warms my stomach, making it feel better."

Melody nodded while effortlessly picking up the shrimp that Lucas peeled and placed in her bowl.

She liked eating shrimp but was not good at peeling them. She always ended up with greasy hands and could not even get to the shrimp meat. Lucas took over this task to play the role of a loving couple with her, and she was happy to enjoy this rare treatment.

"Chicken soup is good for your health. You should have a bowl of it yourself too later," Melody reminded Lucas with a tilt of her head.
