Chapter 100 Simple Dishes Taste Like Heaven.

Joseph’s face sank. He stretched out his hand, revealing his prominent knuckles as he pointed at Chloe. “Go cook for me.”

Chloe had a stomach ache and did not want to cook, so she said, “Let’s order takeout.”

“Sure, you pay for it then. I want seafood from Floria,” Joseph said, looking at her fixedly as he saw through her intentions with a glance.

Floria was a famous seafood restaurant in Aesper. It carried a variety of fresh and cured seafood dishes, with oysters being its specialty. The prices were high, yet the portions were

small.

Chloe was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief, “How did you know I got paid today?”

“Really?” Joseph raised his eyebrows in surprise. “Then I should order more today.”

Chloe opened the takeout app and handed her phone to Joseph. “Order whatever you want.”

He casually ordered a few items. Chloe painfully paid for it and ordered a bowl of clam chowder as well. When the takeout arrived, Joseph realized that she had not ordered anything else for herself.

“Why are you so stingy with yourself?” he asked exasperatedly.

“Well, it’s because I like you. I’d rather eat plain food than see you suffer,” Chloe sarcastically retorted, but her voice was weak due to her stomach ache. Coupled with her innocent and harmless appearance, it aroused a protective instinct in those around her.

Joseph froze and his gaze grew deep. He was taken aback by the fact that she loved him so deeply that she would willingly go without food just to provide him with a satisfying meal. Even someone with a heart of stone would be touched by such affection.
