Chapter 201 Dinner With Miley

The table had been set with aromatic dishes by Gabrielle and Miley. The ambiance among the three of them was much quieter than when there were so many people at the table.

Miley sat on the main seat while Westley and Gabrielle sat opposite each other. They could both see each other as soon as they looked up.

As soon as Gabrielle settled in her seat, she looked up and saw Westley’s dark eyes. She lowered her eyes subconsciously and saw a pair of white hands with Band-Aids on the back. which looked somehow incompatible with his skin tone.

When she remembered that Westley was pecked by a hen while he helped her to pick up the eggs from the chicken house, she felt somty but also wanted to laugh at the same time.

“What’s so funny, that’s making you

laugh, Gabrielle?” Westley asked when he saw her shoulders heaving up and down slightly because she was laughing silently

‘How come she’s smiling so happily even while eating? Is it because the food is so delicious or what? Westley wondered.

“Actually, the scrambled eggs and green peppers are so delicious that’s why I am eating happily.” Immediately Gabrielle said this, she quickly picked up a large piece of fried egg with green pepper and put it into her mouth, Unknown to her, there were fewer eggs than green pepper on the chopstick, which made tears come out of her eyes as a result of the spice.

“Aha… This is so spicy…” Gabrielle muttered, but didn’t have time to spit it out as tears rolled down her cheeks. She took her cup but found that the water had been drunk up.

Westley quickly handed her his glass of water. “How could you be so stupid? You know that you can’t eat spicy food. Why then did you eat so much pepper?”

Gabrielle felt bitter in her heart, but didn’t know what to say.

It wasn’t her intention to eat so much pepper at once. She had picked up cags to eat, but she never expected that there would be so much pepper in the tres But right now, her mouth was burning so hot that she didn’t have the time to bunter words with her husband

It wasn’t until she had drunk the whole glass of water that she realized that the glass belonged to Westley.

For this reason, she burped subconsciously when she drank water out of the glass that he had drunk from.

As she looked at the cup, her eyes shifted to Westley,

“Do you dislike my glass?” Westley asked with a sneer. When Westley saw that she was looking uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, he thought that she was disgusted with the water glass because he had used it first.

“No, I don’t. I just want to say thank you for letting me use it,” Gabrielle said as she tried to wear a perfunctory smile.

“Hypocrite,” Westley said indifferently as he looked away from her. Although

her eyes were full of disgust, she still pretended as if she was thanking him.

He felt that as time went by. Gabrielle was becoming even better at pretending

“What? It’s just that Gabrielle liked the eggs you picked up at the expense of your life. That’s why she picked up so many eggs all at once. She didn‘t know that most of them were peppers, right?” Miley said with a smile as she spoke on Gabrielle’s behalf.

As Westley looked at his grandma, he was at a loss for words. He couldn’t help but wonder if the matter about being pecked by a hen would ever be forgotten.

He felt that he would be bullied mercilessly by Miley and Gabrielle tonight. He was Miley’s real grandson, but it was obvious that his grandma wasn’t on his side but on that of his wife.

“Westley, you should also try to eat more eggs, or else, your blood will bleed in vain.” Gabrielle wiped off the last drop of tear on her face and looked at Westley.

She thought she was so weak that she even cried in front of Westley because She ate peppers. She couldn’t help but

feel so embarrassed.

“Gabrielle, give more eges to Westley. He was injured while he was picking up the eges. He should eat more eggs.” Miley urged Gabrielle.

As Miley said this Gabrielle didn’t give too much thought to it. She followed Miley’s order and picked up some eggs for Westley with her chopsticks as she deliberately avoided the green pepper.

However, Westley, whose face was gloomy and dark, fixed his gaze on Gabrielle thereby making her tremble in lear.

 

“Well, it seems like you don’t like eggs. Do you like peppers, then?” Gabrielle Stared at him in confusion.

Miley smiled as she looked at Westley silently. She knew that her grandson was a neat freak Ever since he was a child. he didn’t like to share food with others, he didn’t eat what others had eaten from, and also didn’t like it when others picked up food with their chopsticks for him.

Which was why Miley came up with such a bad idea. She used Gabrielle as the bait to see how he was going to react.

Westley felt that his grandma was the one who tricked him the most in the whole world.

When Miley saw that his face had darkened, she became a little womed.

She knew her grandson very well, Miley knew that he wouldn’t leave after throwing away the bowls and chopsticks.

“Westley, if you don’t like it, you can give it to me and I’ll pick up more pepper for you. What do you think about that?” Gabrielle asked as she looked at him with a charming smile.

A second ago, Westley was ready to throw the bowls and chopsticks away. but when he saw his wife’s smiling face, it was as if his anger was extinguished in an instant.

“You are so stupid, Gabrielle. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? You like pepper, but I don’t like them. Don’t put pepper in my bowl.” Westley told her as he picked up a piece of egg and put it into his mouth.

As soon as Miley saw this, she was relieved at once. She was almost scared to death by her imperious grandson

some minutes ago.

She deliberately asked Gabrielle to pick up some eggs for him, If he had throwni the bowl and chopsticks in front of Gabrielle, Miley knew that her granddaughter-in-law would be traumatized for the rest of her life.

As luck would have it, Miley won the bet. She felt that Westley just ate the eggs because he didn’t want to hurt Gabrielle.

A mixed feeling rose in Gabrielle’s heart. ‘Is this how low Westley thinks of me? How can he say I am stupid?’ she thought to herself.

The word “stupid” made her feel very terrible.

But all the same, she was a little happy to see that he ate all the eggs she picked up for him.

“Let’s eat, Gabrielle. Leave this pompous man alone,” Miley said as she pushed some spareribs in front of Gabrielle, indirectly telling her to eat more.

“Don’t worry, Miley. I’ll help myself.” Gabrielle said. She felt uncomfortable with the way Miley was caring about

what she ate.

While she was very much younger, no one ever paid so much attention to her in the Jones family. They didn’t care if she ate or not, neither did they care about what she liked to eat at the table. She was always treated like a slave and not a daughter of the family.

But here, in the past two days, Gabrielle could always have her favorite meal, which was always enough for her.

“You’re too thin, Gabrielle. You need to eat more food. Westley. when you both go back to the city, make sure that you supervise what your wife eats every day. If she keeps being so thin without adding any flesh, her parents will think that we’re maltreating her,” Miley said as she looked at Westley. It was obvious that she was giving him a task to carry out.

“No, Miley. Gabrielle is not skinny. She has flesh all over her body.” Westley answered naturally. As soon as he ultered the words, he realized that what he had said was bullshit.

When Gabrielle heard this statement, her hand trembled so much that the ribs that she had just picked up fell back to the

plate with a loud bang.

“Why did Westley say such words in public? I am a thin and fleshy woman, but not everyone knows about it,’ she thought to herself.

“You have succeeded in scaring your wife, Westley. She should endeavor to cat more meat, even if she’s fleshy enough.” Miley said as she smiled knowingly.

At this point, Gabrielle didn’t say anything else. She took a big bite of the food on her plate and was about to run back to her room after eating.

“Miley, I’m full. I’m going back to my room to take a shower. Thank you for the delicious meal,” Gabrielle said quickly as she put down the bowl and chopsticks and ran upstairs as fast as a rabbit.

She looked so cute as she ran away.

Miley stopped being reserved and laughed uncontrollably. “Westley, have you discovered that your wife is a treasure? Doesn’t she look cute to you?” Miley asked her grandson with a trace of tears in her eyes.
