Chapter 262 Who Sent These to You?
Who the hell sent these to her for breakfast?
When Olivia brought North out from the room, George had already sat at the dining table after arranging everything.
“Morning, Mr. George!”
“Morning, North. Look at what your mother has bought for you!”
As soon as North saw what was on the table, his eyes immediately brightened. “Spicy lobster?”
He immediately climbed up the chair and took the chopsticks to take the lobsters. Then, he gave it to George. “This is for you, Mr. George!”
George was shocked upon seeing that. “This is for me?”
North’s face darkened. “To peel the shell off.”
George was half-exasperated and half-amused at the same time. “I was moved for nothing.”
She was speechless upon hearing that and wanted to take the gloves from him, saying, “Let me do it.”
He avoided her, saying, “It’s fine. You don’t peel as fast as I do.”
North chuckled as he patiently waited. When George handed him the shelled lobster, he thoughtfully placed it in the former’s bowl. “The first one is for Mr. George!”
A surprised George pushed the bowl to North. “Go ahead.”
North pretended to be mature, saying, “Why don’t you eat first? The first person to shell it should be the first one to eat it.”
Even though he had said so, he subconsciously swallowed.
George couldn’t help but smile as he quickened his pace and shelled another lobster for Olivia in no time.
However, North placed his share in her bowl.
She smiled reassuringly. “Baby, you should eat first.”
However, upon his insistence, she stopped resisting and ate it.
At that moment, George asked, “Who sent these to you for breakfast?”
Upon hearing that, she was shocked—the lobster meat that she had just eaten went down the wrong way in her throat. In that instant, the spice flooded her mouth as she could not stop coughing for the next three minutes.
Her reaction had immensely frightened him, so he quickly poured a glass of water for her. “Quickly drink this.”
After taking the glass of water from him and downing half of it, her coughs finally subsided.
She gently patted her chest that slightly ached from all the coughing as she looked at him with resentment. “Didn’t I say that I ordered takeout earlier? The delivery man sent it here!”
George eyed her coldly. “Tell me then—these dishes are obviously not from the same restaurant. How did you manage to put all of them into one bag?”
With that, North, who was eating the lobsters, raised his head as he nervously looked at Olivia.
Olivia felt her heart immediately sinking after hearing that. I’m doomed! I knew it! Based on George’s intelligence, he must have realized that something is off. What should I do?
She gulped and resignedly said, “Fine, I admit that it was sent by others, but that’s because I wanted to treat you well! You are well aware where my culinary skills lie, so I asked Katie to send this to me. She left it at the door earlier!”
North was speechless upon hearing that. What? Mommy doesn’t even need to prepare a draft to lie. I can tell that my daddy made this right after trying it!
George’s frown deepened. “Katie made this for you?”
She nodded. “Who else would it be if it’s not her? Would it be Nathan otherwise? Only Katie’s cooking is edible around here. Both Nathan and I are considered freeloaders here.”
Her explanation seemed to convince him as he eyed her disdainfully. “You still have the guts to say this? Kate and Nathan called to ask me out for a meal last night. It’s not that good to reject them anyway. Tell them that we’ll have a gathering tomorrow night.”
“Sure, I’ll give them a call later.”
Olivia’s heart had finally calmed down as she successfully hid the truth from George.
However, she could no longer hide her relationship with Eugene from Kate.
