The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress

Chapter 586

Noticing the odd look on Citrine's face, Travis didn't even hesitate-he strolled over, grabbed a skewer from the plate, and popped it straight into his mouth. Instantly, his expression twisted in horror.

"What the... What is this monstrosity? This is disgusting!"

"Wade, did you seriously just dump every spice you could find into this?"

Wade nodded sheepishly.

"Ugh!" Travis couldn't stand it for another second. He rushed to the trash can and spat out the entire mouthful.

Was he some kind of masochist? Why did he have to be such a smartass and try Wade's cooking? If someone offered him this horror show again, you'd have to kill him first-he'd never touch it. Just remembering the taste made his stomach churn. For the next several days, he completely lost his appetite.

Then he glanced up and saw Citrine still chewing. His eyes went wide.

He blurted out, panicked, "Citrine, spit it out! That stuff's basically poison."

Wade's face fell. He hurried to grab a skewer himself and took a bite. Within a second, he was gagging and spitting it out too.
