Chapter 30 Do You Dislike Me?

Jodie couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable as she watched Zac proudly displaying his pierogi. It perplexed her why he could be so sharp–tongued with her yet so openly flirtatious with Simone. The more she dwelled on it, the more indignant she became.

While she may

ay not have many culinary skills, she did know how to make dumplings. So, she turned to Aaron and Leon and asked, “Would you like some egg and chive dumplings?” Their supplies were depleted of meat, leaving only eggs and chives.

Aaron eagerly replied, “Of course! I love egg and chive dumplings.”

Leon nodded. “Sounds good!”

Jodie obediently said, I’ll go make them for you.”

Aaron put his arm around Jodie’s shoulder. “My little sister is so capable.”

In a habitual gesture, she nuzzled her head against Aaron’s. “Aaron, just wait for the delicious food.”

Observing their intimate behavior, Keira couldn’t help but roll her eyes, sensing that their relationship resembled that of a romantic couple rather than mere siblings. This made her question, “Are they really just siblings?”

Once Aaron and Jodie finished their affectionate display, they noticed Leyla standing behind them. Typically, Jodic might not have acknowledged her. Jodie wanted to appear friendly and caring since they were about to go live. With a warm smile, Jodie asked, “Leyla, are you going to eat too?”

Leyla mustered a smile. “Sure.” Although she wanted to express her dislike for chives due to their lingering aftertaste, she couldn’t refuse the offer, especially when both Aaron and Jodie were about to eat. She was concerned about potential criticism if she declined.

Jodie, demonstrating her care and culinary skills, headed to the kitchen to prepare the dumplings. She kneaded the dough, prepared the filling, and wrapped the dumplings herself. Since she wanted to showcase her skills, she didn’t let the other three help..

Surprisingly, they didn’t offer to help either.

As the mouthwatering aroma of the soup wafted from the courtyard and Zac’s group relished their pierogi and soup, the other people’s hunger was stimulated.

Leon and Aaron couldn’t help but feel a bit disgruntled.
