Chapter 729
The Woman From Hell
She walked up behind Mason and asked with a smile," Why wasn't I invited to this meal, Mason?"
I strongly suspected that she had followed Mason.
How else would she know that we were eating here?
Mason asked mildly, "What are you doing here?"
Nadia giggled. "I was bored staying at home alone and you wouldn't answer my calls, so I asked
your assistant. He told me that you're having dinner here, that's why I came.â
"Take a seat," Mason said.
The waiter came in and added a set of plates and cutleries. Nadia picked up her cutleries and
looked at Munchkin. âI didn't look closely the last time we met, but now that I have the chance to
look closely, I realize that heâs really good-looking."
No one answered her, and awkwardness hung in the air.
Mason put food on Munchkinâs plate. He asked softly and warmly, "Do you like this dish,
Munchkin?"
Munchkin nodded. "Thank you, Mr. Mason."
Nadia frowned, looking slightly displeased. She put down her cutleries and said to Mason in a
spoiled
manner, "Mason, my arm hurts when I lift it these days. Can you grab me some food too?"
Mason looked indifferently at her and beckoned to the waiter.
The waiter came forward and asked him politely," What can I do for you, Sir?"
"Can you please put some food on her plate? Thank you."

I glanced at Nadia and saw her complexion pale. There was a hint of grievances in her eyes.
This restaurant had top-notch services, so putting dishes on customers' plates was not a big deal.
However, the awkwardness hanging in the air grew even more intense. Theo acted as though he
did not sense anything and went about doing his thing as usual. He had not spared Nadia a glance
from the moment she walked in.
"What are you thinking about?â Theo patted my hand." Aren't you hungry?"
I came back to my senses and continued eating.
Munchkin was now at the age where he was curious about everything. He also liked observing
others. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he suddenly said, " Mr. Mason, you don't like this
lady."
I nearly spat out the water in my mouth. This child was not afraid to speak up.
Nadia nearly jumped off her chair and lost it but she held herself back. She bit her lip hard, looking
tremendously humiliated.
"How could you tell?" Mason asked with a smile.
I was surprised by how he was still able to smile.
"If you liked this lady, then you'd definitely take care o f her. Like Theo, he cares about Mommy very
much. If Mommy doesn't take food for herself, Theo will take it for her."
Munchkin tapped his chin and pondered for a moment before continuing, "I read online that you can
tell if a person likes you or not by observing the details. The things I said just now are the details."
Phones would be off-limits from now on!
Theo smirked. "You're so smart, Munchkin."
"Are you sure this is being smart?â I glared at him. "He has clearly been exposed to something
bad."
Theo was stunned, then raised both hands to surrender.
I helplessly sighed and patted Munchkin's head. "Talk less, eat more."
Pregnant ladies had very unstable emotions. Although I did not like Nadia, I did not want to trigger
her emotions because it would spell trouble if she suddenly went berserk.
Munchkin did not say anything else after that and lowered his head to eat his food.
Mason's eyes remained glued to him, his gaze particularly serious. Unsure if he was doing it on
purpose or not, he said, "He resembles her character very much."
I knew who he was referring to.
Was he not putting a dagger through my heart by saying that now?
