What the f*ck!
Harley couldnât help but curse silently.
This man chose his wife over his sense of humanity!
Pursing his lips, he looked at Eudora again, âEudora, Iâm not afraid of being tired, but you canât bear to see Thea and the child suffer, canât you?â
Eudora chuckled, âOf course not. Thea, letâs go in and have some tea! Iâve brought your favorite tea. Iâll make some for you.â
âSure!â Thea said with a smile.
Harley was baffled.
However, shortly after brewing the tea in the house, Thea came out with a cup of it.
Eudora understood and did not say a word. She just watched silently from the window as Thea handed the tea to Harley.
âHave some tea! Iâll help you sweep the leaves!â
Harley wasnât truly angry. In fact, though Amos had asked him to sweep the floor, Amos wasnât being idle either. He had been cleaning outside as well.
This was Amosâs private domain. It was because Amos treated him like a brother thus he asked him for help.
âItâs okay. I can handle such a small thing. Why would I ask you for a favor?â Harley sipped on the tea from Theaâs hand.
When no one noticed them, he secretly kissed Thea on the cheek and said, âSo sweet.â
Thea rolled her eyes at him, âNowâs not the time!â
Everyone came out to help them after having a cup of tea in the house. After busying themselves the whole afternoon, finally everywhere had become clean.
Christopher covered his stomach and shouted, âIâm starving to death. Whereâs the host? Isnât he going to prepare dinner?â
Eudora actually didnât know much about the current situation. As soon as she heard Harley talk about dinner, she realized that they did not bring anything with them.
âSince itâs still early, just wait for me. Iâll go down the mountain and buy some food back.â
Harley almost staggered to the floor, âIt had already taken us a few hours to get up here. If you go down to buy food now, weâd be starving to death by the time you come back!â
Amos gave a slight cough and said in displease, âThen, you stay in your hunger. The others will have the barbecue.â
Harley was befuddled.
As soon as Amos finished his words, he heard footsteps. Someone had brought food up to the top of the mountain.
It turned out that Amos had already prepared everything. He took the rest of the things and put them into the refrigerator. Those people had also already installed everything needed for a barbeque session.
Learning from his encounter with Amos just now, Harley knew that it did not matter who he offended, but he just could not offend Eudora. Not to mention, something bad would happen if Amos were to hear some gossip about Eudora.
Harley was regretting his words already, lamenting over the careless words he had said previously.
Thinking of this, he glanced and noticed that Eudora wanted to get some food for the barbeque, and immediately he rushed to help her.
âEudora! My dearest sister-in-law, Eudora, I shouldâve known that you would have already made preparations in advance. In my heart, youâre the most virtuous and generous person. The words I have spoken just now were on purpose because I wanted to accentuate your virtuousness!â
Eudora was perplexed.
His flattery was a little apparent.
Harley didnât stop at all. âEudora, youâre not only virtuous, but youâre a good cook too. Ever since I ate the dishes you made, I havenât stopped thinking about it. Itâs my brotherâs blessing to be able to marry you! Of course, my brother is not bad either. Both of you really are a perfect match and are meant to be!â
Thea covered her face, not bearing to listen anymore.
Amos finally let him go and said, âOkay, okay, letâs start the barbecue now!â
âHooray!â Harley immediately went to help out as soon as he got the approval. from Amos. Although Eudora was good at cooking, her barbecue skills were just as ordinary.
She had never barbecued before and had no experience of hanging out with her family outdoors since she was a child. She did not even have classmates nor acquaintances to begin with.
Later on, after marrying Felix, she enjoyed three meals a day. She had used the microwaveâs grilling mode, but it was completely different from the charcoal barbecue that they had that day.
After a while, Eudora took a burnt corn from the grill with an embarrassed look on her face.
âIs this edible?â she asked.
Harley looked up and said, âEudora, why are you holding charcoal in your hands?â
Eudora grew speechless.
âThis is cornâ¦â
Harley hurriedly suppressed his laughter. He could not laugh! Otherwise, he would be harassed by Amos again later.
However, he really couldnât hold it in. When Eudora turned her head, he immediately covered his mouth. The next second, Eudora turned back to look at him again and asked, âIs it that funny?â
Harley shook his head seriously, disagreeing with her question. But if a closer look would know that his eyes were turning red as he was holding in his laughter.
âDid I laugh? No, I didnât!â
âSure.â Eudora answered and put the corn down. The next second, they heard Christopher asked confusedly, âWhy is the charcoal here?â
Harley couldnât hold back his laughter anymore, and started to laugh boisterously.
Eudora was totally speechless.
When Amos came over, he saw Eudora standing there with a look of embarrassment on her face. He knew she had always been the best at cooking.
However, she suddenly felt conflicted that day.
âWhatâs wrong? You donât like the food here?â
Eudora shook her head and pointed at the black object on the table.
Amosâs first reaction was that it was a piece of charcoal. However, as soon as he looked up and saw Harleyâs eyes that were full of mirth, he understood the situation.
A second later, he came back to his senses and said, âWas it roasted by you? Iâll try it.â
Harley was bewildered.
âAmos could tell that it was food? Bullsh*t!â Harley thought.
Eudora hurriedly tried to grab it, âItâs burnt, you canât eat it!â
The next second, Amos had stuffed the corn into his mouth and took a bite, âItâs delicious.â
Harley was shocked.
âWouldnât your conscience hurt by telling lies?â Harley mused.
Christopher, on the other hand, looked at Amos with admiration and went into deep thought after.
âIt truly is tasty?â Eudora didnât dare to believe him.
âOf course, it tastes good. As long as itâs made by you, it tastes good.â
Eudora immediately became spirited, âThen, Iâll roast some more for you.â
Amos nodded and said, âOkay!â
After Eudora left, Christopher walked over and rubbed his arms awkwardly.
âI have to seek some advice from you.â
Amos raised his eyebrows and said, âGo ahead.â
âHow did you manage to coax Eudora?â Amos then followed Christopherâs line of sight and saw Thea and Tina with a scowl on their faces.
Each of them had a black object in front of them.
Harley, who had just laughed at Eudora, soon drooped his head down with a depressed look.
âYou want to know?â Amos pursed his lips.
âYes!â Christopher nodded. Harley also rushed over to ask for help, âAmos, quickly help me!â
Harley, Tina and Eudora were indeed sisters, even their barbeque skills were on the same level.
âEat it!â Amos said, âTell her that as long as itâs made by her, itâs the best!â
Christopher said reluctantly, âAll right!â Fortunately, Tina had roasted a green vegetable. Although it was as dry as hay, it was still bearable!
Harley silently took a look at the shark intestine in Theaâs hand and desperately held his churning stomach. He had eaten it once before and had almost thrown up.
He didnât know why Thea chose the shark intestine to be on the grill. It was too difficult, it really was too difficult for him to eat it!
