Chapter 664

Sophia served some lobster onto Natalie’s plate.

“Thank you, Aunt Sophia.You should eat too.”

Natalie dished out some food for Sophia as well and then glanced at Frank and Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was very quiet, and Frank hadn’t eaten much.He fastidiously removed the fish bones for Elizabeth and shelled the shrimp for Sophia.

Natalie was amazed by Frank’s thoughtfulness.

When she first met him, he had seemed cold and difficult to get along with.His love for Elizabeth revealed a much more gentle and generous side to him.

“Aunt Sophia, I have peeled some shrimp for you.”

Frank placed a plate of shrimp in front of Sophia, and then he went to the kitchen to get the vinegar.

“It tastes even better with vinegar.”

“You peel shrimp with your surgeon’s hands?”

Although Sophia teased him, her smile revealed how happy she really was.

“You must have been here a lot of times.You seem very familiar with where things are kept,” Natalie said, chuckling.

Frank blushed, and a haze of shyness softened his eyes.

He sat beside Elizabeth and said, “Not that many times actually.”

Elizabeth burst into laughter.

He resembled an awkward teenager.She pinched his red ear and looked at Natalie.

“We’ve been training him up.Let me tell you, Frank didn’t even know how to cut meat when he first came here.He doesn’t do housework at home.That first dinner here, my aunt had bought some pork back.She asked Frank to help her cut it into pieces, and he dropped the meat on the floor.His expression back then was hilarious.”

“I can help now.I’ve made a lot of progress,” Frank said, nudging her shoulder.

Chuckling, Elizabeth squeezed his cheek.

“We must be excellent teachers, because you are highly skilled now.” Sophia laughed.

“I can testify that it was Elizabeth who taught him.Before he met my niece, Frank could use a scalpel, but not a kitchen knife.I didn’t think he would become a skilled cook in this lifetime.”

The room filled with laughter.It felt good to Natalie to be around such simple joy.
