The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 92:

Alicia kept her face expressionless and got straight to the point. “Do you really think I’m the one who should be getting blamed in the kitchen right now?”

His abruptness caught Joshua off guard.

No retort occurred to him, because he knew things had changed between them and he no longer felt comfortable speaking harshly to her.

Georgia has been with my mother for years. She's practically part of the family, so she has her moments. You're younger, what's wrong with giving her a break?

Alice absentmindedly touched her wound, showing no reaction.

She remained silent.

Joshua sighed and led her into the living room, pulling out a band-aid to gently dress her wound.

“Before, when I brought you here, didn't you work non-stop from morning to night just to make a good impression? It's just one meal. How tiring can it be?”

Alicia pulled her hand away from his. “I never said I wouldn't cook.”

"You made the pot break on purpose. Isn't that your way of making a statement?"

Alice didn't know what to answer.

"It was Georgia who broke it," he finally said.

Joshua was convinced that he was just blaming someone else.

“But in the end, it's still your fault,” he replied. “You already have a special position here. I'm not around much. Can’t you tolerate a little more to make things easier for me?”

Alice didn't say anything else at that moment.

A moment ago she had been furious, but as Joshua continued with his absurd comments, a strange calm took hold of her.
