Chapter 103

Barclay and Moira were left in the living room.

Moira felt guilty and avoided looking at Barclay. Before she could figure out how to explain everything, Barclay asked, “Are you friends with the housekeeper now?”

Moira replied, “No, we are not.”

Barclay did not reply to Moira. He sat down and gave Moira a meaningful look.

Moira quickly placed the plate of watermelon and grapes before Barclay, suggesting, “Have some watermelon. It’s so sweet”

Barclay chuckled when he observed Moira’s frantic attempts to please him with the watermelon slices. However, the next second, he returned to his usual icy look and said, “I don’t like sweet food.” He added inside, “Of course, except the sweet rabbit before me.”

Moira was shocked, thinking. ‘Should I change my wording and say the watermelon is only mediocre sweet?”

Moira took a bite of watermelon and suddenly found a blind spot. She asked, “Mr. Covington, I hope I’m not being too presumptuous, but can I ask you a question?”

Looking at Moira, Barclay raised an eyebrow to signal his permission.

Moira asked, “Why did you ask the housekeep to buy the sweet watermelon and grapes since you don’t like sweet food?”
