His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 143: Double-Edged Sword  

A second later, Axel, who didn't seem to have any plans on stopping his complaints about how Iven was a person who had never seen the world and knew only how to make a fuss all day long, finally shut his mouth when he tasted the stew.

Wide-eyed, Axel looked at the crowd with a face full of surprise and asked, "Oh my god! What kind of beef stew is this? Why is it so delicious? The seasoning is so fragrant, and the soup is just amazing!"

lven's lips were now red and swollen from the spiciness of the stew, yet he was still drinking the soup from the bowl.

One would see that he had no intention of stopping at all.

Luke snorted in disdain.He didn't need this man to praise him at all! The stew he made was his very own recipe, and Melody liked stew the most.

Back when he was still a servant in the Phillips Family, Luke had put his blood and soul into working with a master chef in Italy for more than a month so that he could get the secret recipe the master had for stew.

Luke even carefully improved the recipe according to Melody's taste so he could have today's results! The aroma of the stew wafted to the air.

The more Iven ate, the happier he became.

Even his opinion on Melody significantly improved.

"Melody, you said earlier that you'll treat us somewhere after we lost to you," lven said in between eating a spoonful of stew.

"If I had known earlier you'd treat us with this food; I wouldn't have made an effort and lost sooner.Then I would've eaten this stew earlier.It tastes heavenly!"

"I agree!" Axel chimed in.

To them, losing around two hundred thousand in poker was a small matter.

However, finding something delicious to eat was a challenge.

Especially ven.He loved stew the most.He even spent millions of dollars just to buy a restaurant that specialized in cooking stew.

He only bought it just so he could eat some of its stew.

Melody only watched the two men with a poker face.He noticed them speaking, although their mouths were full.

Luke listened in on the conversation from the side and frowned.

It was quite hard for Luke to accept that there were some things that he didn't know about Melody.
