Nathaniel was childish and petty.
“Mr. Roberts, it’s wrong to waste food. You will have no dinner tonight as punishment.”
Even after purging his stomach, Nathaniel continued retching.
He heard what Lucinda said but didn’t respond.
His mouth tasted sour, and his throat burned. He had no intention of eating again that day.
But Lucinda did.
By nine o’clock in the evening, she was hungry.
But she did not count on Nathaniel’s cooking skills.
Instead, she cooked noodles herself.
The pot on the stove was burnt. She found another in the cupboard.
She boiled the water and put in the noodles. She made it look easy.
Nathaniel watched her from the door.
Her unrushed concentration entranced him.
If he could turn back time and start again, would everything be different?
If he hadn’t agreed to divorce her, it might have been nice to live such a peaceful life…
He shook away these thoughts and smiled sardonically. If Lucinda knew what he was thinking, she would probably say, “Son of a bitch! You do not deserve me.”

He had signed an agreement with her, and now he was only her servant.
Lucinda prepared the spicy noodles while Nathaniel was lost in his thoughts.
There was only one helping. She didn’t even leave anything for him.
The pot was empty.
How heartless she was to deny him dinner.
Nathaniel felt uncomfortable watching Lucinda enjoy her food and was about to head to the second floor to find himself a bedroom.
“Stop!” Lucinda said.
“Stand here and watch me finish.”
