29 Awful

Faced with Samantha's extreme cold, Finley had no choice but to raise the air conditioning temperature. However, Samantha remained incredibly cold, and when Finley touched her body for the second time, it felt like touching an ice block-extremely cold. "How could this be?" Finley contemplated calling the family doctor, but before he could do that, Samantha grabbed his arm, saying, "Finley, I'm so cold... So cold."

Alas, due to the air conditioning, Finley felt uncomfortably hot.

One should note that it was summertime, and the air conditioning was blowing warm air. He was already sweating, yet Samantha remained icy cold. Unable to find a solution, Finley went to the bed, took off his clothes, and pulled Samantha into his arms. Feeling Finley's warmth, she reached out and hugged him tightly.

Daphne nodded and brought breakfast to the table.

Samantha approached the dining table and was stunned by the spread of highly nutritious food. When did the breakfast at Dean Residence become so health-giving?

Perplexed, Samantha sat down and watched as Fanley approached. She quickly grabbed a bowl and served him a portion of the tonic soup. "Darling, this soup is definitely health-giving. You should drink up." 22:31/ Sun, Sep 29Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Finley lowered his eyes and took a sip of the chicken soup, only to put the spoon down with displeasure. "What's wrong, darling?" she asked with a frown.

"Awful."

"How can that be?" Samantha, without any aversion, grabbed Finley's bowl, took a sip from it, and said, "Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your taste buds, darling? This is delicious!"

"If it's so good, why did you only take one sip?" Finley's tone remained disdainful. Samantha. paused, then, in front of Finley, drank the entire bowl of tonic soup. "See, I finished it. The soup is really not bad at all, so..."
