My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1307

Stanley was demanding, whereas Maisie was adorable. They managed to get Sophia to instruct the kitchen to prepare a lot of delicious food to serve them.

During the meal, Stanley kept complaining, “Sophia, you won’t believe the quality of our family’s cook. Oh, my God! Her cooking skills… I am sure she used to cook at a high school canteen for the masses. Even her way of simply boiling a pot of water is dubious. You can’t even begin to imagine the type of life the three of us have to endure at home! It’s better to have instant noodles every meal! She is very old, and so I just can’t fire her. I’ve bought the all-inclusive insurance funds for her too, and I’m just waiting for her insurance to mature next year. With that, she’ll be able to retire and return to her hometown, while I will switch to a great cook immediately.”

Sophia listened attentively, but she noticed that he did not mention anything about that little girlfriend of his.

Nevertheless, Sean was around, and so she was embarrassed to ask further.

Sophia kept serving Maisie different dishes. On the other hand, Stanley was busy stuffing his face, but he did serve Sean some dishes too.

“Sean, eat more. We can’t even be sure when’s the next meal after this!”

Sophia scowled while thinking to herself. Stupid Fletcher. What is he talking about?

Stanley kept placing a variety of food on Sean’s plate. Being well-versed with Sean’s favorite dishes, he was precise in picking the dishes the latter loved.

With Stanley around, Sophia watched him as he snatched away the food. It inadvertently formed a sense of competition during the meal, causing Sophia to feel the pressure. She was afraid that she might lose out on the food she enjoyed. Therefore, she started snatching some dishes too, and without noticing it, she had gobbled down three bowls of rice.

Judge approached them too; it ate Sophia’s home-baked dog food underneath the table, wolfing down the food like a pig.

Tonight’s meal was exceptionally delicious, and so they polished everything off.

After dinner, they sat in the living room to watch ‘News Bulletin’. Stanley went down to the wine cellar for two bottles of red wine to pair with the stewed dishes he had brought along. He did that while chatting with Sophia about the latest gossip.

“My cybercafé has started its operation. Are you dropping by? Is your husband visiting? Will Nicole come along? In any case, Sarah and Mr. Harry are going, and so all of you have to come too! By the way, how’s the progress of getting your dad to officiate the opening ceremony of my cybercafé?”

Sophia wrapped her arms around Justin’s baby while mumbling to Stanley in acknowledgement.

They had opened the largest cybercafé in the world together, and it was a big deal in the world of e-sports. They had invited many famous e-sports players for the opening day, and they even went out of the way to invite Cooper to cut the ribbon during the opening ceremony.

After all, he was considered the Grandmaster in the gaming industry.

Soon, Stanley mentioned the gossip he had promised to share with Sophia. “Do you know Lucy? She’s from the Edwards Family. I’m sure you’ve heard that two months ago, she’s been exposed as a homosexual, and she’s been trying to create a fake marriage. Therefore, the Edwards relieved her of her administrative power of the family business…”

Sophia paid attention right away while straightening her back automatically. “What happened to her?” she asked.

Since Sophia had rescued Lucy secretly and allowed her to recuperate at home, Stanley had no idea about Lucy all along. Therefore, he was especially boastful when he bragged about this piece of gossip.

“Oh, my! She was chased out of the Edwards Family! After that, there has been no news of her for two months. Rumors have it that she must have left the Edwards Family for abroad, but last night… she showed up suddenly at the main entrance of the Edwards Residence. She kneeled down at the door to beg her father and family to forgive her. She was on her knees the whole of last night and today—in fact, she’s still kneeling there right now!”
