Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0533

Just as I was about to tum Nicholas down, the waiter knocked and brought in the dishes I ordered.

I frowned. "Did you bring the wrong dishes? This isn't what I ordered."

I was starving and had ordered butter-poached lobster tails, seared scallops, sous vide short ribs, and king crab legs with herb garlic butter. I had also ordered lobster bisque for both Douglas and me.

But what was in front of us was a spread of plain foods that I never ordered.

The room grew tense. The waiter, looking flustered, kept rechecking the menu. "No, madam, this is correct..."

"I changed your order," Nicholas cut in, his voice restrained. "The doctor said you just woke up. Your first meal shouldn't be so heavy."

I turned and looked at him intently. Had he come all this way just to monitor what I ate?

"Well, Mr. Hawk is being thoughtful. He is doing this for your health. Please, do try them," Douglas chimed in, eager to smooth things over.
