Joseph did not bother explaining that there was no cook in the first place.

After some brief contemplation, he went upstairs to grab a bank card. Then, he handed it to Chloe. “This is my supplementary card. You can use it for household expenses or if you want to buy clothes or something.”

Chloe was about to say that groceries would not cost much, but she suddenly remembered that she was currently unemployed, and not wishing to appear stubborn, she accepted the card.

Moreover, the produce at the local market is freshly picked from the farm, making it healthier and more affordable.”
