Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 10 Samuel’s Test

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Annalise was startled and instantly regained her senses.

“Here. Take a look at the menu, and let’s order the dishes together. You can make the arrangements! Julian said.

“It’s okay, you can do it… Um, okay, I’ll join you!” Initially, Annalise was going to let Julian handle it on his own

However, Julian shot her a glance, indicating that they still needed to act like a loving couple in front of the Barton family.

Annalise understood his meaning right away.

When Julian leaned over to her with the menu in his hands, she nestled into the man’s arms.

She was intentionally trying to annoy the Barton family and also Samuel.

“How about this? What do you think?” She pointed to a dish, then asked Julian with a smile while lifting her head to look at him.

“Okay,” Julian responded gently.

“Eh? What does this word mean?” Annalise asked.

“It’s tilapia. It’s a kind of fish.” The smile at the corner of Julian’s mouth widened, and his eyes were filled with affection.

Samuel’s face became even more sullen.

During dinner, Samuel wouldn’t stop finding fault with Annalise.

It’s the best season to have pumpkins right now. Don’t consume them after autumn, though. Pumpkins are cooling foods, so you might catch a cold if you consume them during cold weather. Oh, please have some chicken, too. Among all kinds of meat, chicken contains the most nutrients that can easily be absorbed by the human body. That is also the reason why postpartum women primarily consume chicken to nourish their bodies after giving birth.
