PopularNovelChapter 255 Lucas never saw that look on Lydia's face before. It was overbearing, arrogant, and full of pride, just like a schemer who had pulled off a trick and couldn't help but secretly gloat.
'How could this expression possibly appear on Lydia?' Lucas thought. 'No, no way. I must have been mistaken. Lydia was the kindest person he had ever met. She always wore a friendly smile for everyone. She had even saved his life once.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBack then, everyone thought he was done for, but Lydia was the only one who insisted on finding him. She carried him all the way back by herself, her hands rubbed raw, and nearly got herself into trouble because of it. 'How could someone as good as Lydia ever make a face like that?' Lucas thought, still unable to believe it. Lucas shook his head and blinked, then looked at Lydia. She was walking arm in arm with Emma toward the dining table, her face glowing with warmth and a gentle smile. There was no sign at all of that smug look from earlier.
Lucas let out a sigh of relief. 'See? I was just seeing things,' he thought.
Maybe to make up for the guilt of his earlier misunderstanding, Lucas was attentive to Lydia at the dinner table. Lydia had no idea what had gotten into him, but it didn't stop her from feeling pleased. She glanced over at Emily's empty plate.
With a raise of her eyebrows and a tone of smugness, Lydia said, "Lucas, don't just keep serving me. Emily's been staring at my plate. Why don't you give her some, too?" Lucas glanced over at, Emily and noticed that her bowl had nothing but vegetables. He couldn't help but frown. "Didn't you use to hate eating vegetables?" Emily shrugged and said, "My tastes have changed." Lucas didn't like her attitude at all. It was as if the whole world owed her something.
Andrew cut in, "The food overseas is pretty bland. It's normal for her tastes to change. Just take care of Lydia. Emily's old enough. If she wants something, she knows how to use her fork." Andrew's words sounded like a reminder.
Lucas glanced at Charles, who was sitting there, and swallowed whatever he was about to say.
Emily ignored the silent exchange between the two brothers. She put svegetables on Charles's plate. "Charles, the doctor said you need to eat more greens. You can't be a picky eater." Her dislike for vegetables was just like Charles's. But her tastes had changed, while Charles still liked to cup with all sorts of tricks to avoid eating his greens, just like always.
Sure enough, as soon as he saw the pile of green veggies in his bowl, Charles looked so wronged. "I ate a huge plate of vegetables this morning. I've already had my quota for the day.” Emily, unfazed, put another piece on his plate. "You ate yesterday's veggies this morning. I already asked the hospital staff, so don't even think about trying to weasel out of it." Charles thought, 'Which little tattletale rattedout?'
Charles and Emily shared their usual warm moments together, as if the rest of the Bennett family didn't even ΕΠ exist. Emily had been ignoring the Bennett family from the moment she walked in, simply out of sheer annoyance. Charles, on 1/2 Chapter 255 the other hand, was doing it deliberately.
After all, they'd lived under the sroof for so many years.
years. But everm since Emily arrived, none of them had ΕΠ taken the initiative to greet her.
They were going on about how Emily could just help herself if she wanted something. But thing. But Lydia, sage as Emily, was getting all that special treatment, like she was skind of helpless princess.
