Chapter 2854: Chapter 44: Third Night’s Drinking Practice (6)

Ben Lucas entered the kitchen for a short while, then came out with a cold expression.

Harrison Lucas was well aware that the master was upset, but she didn’t dare bring it up, not even a bit.

In fact, for a first attempt at cooking, making such colorful and fragrant dishes was already incredibly commendable.

But her master always excelled at everything, and his proud ego probably had never suffered such a setback.

"..." Harrison clutched her stomach and anxiously looked at Ben Lucas, not daring to urge nor speak empty flattering words.

She was waiting for the master to get angry, or for him to say something to regain his momentum.

However, nothing happened—

Her master merely took another empty bowl, then scooped a bowl of porridge, placing it before her.

The bottom of the bowl clinked against the solid wood table, making a heavy sound.

Harrison: "..."

What to do, she was a bit panicked, was it too late to escape now?!

"Eat." The man’s voice pierced coldly, seeing Harrison frozen as if struck dumb, he added with a curt tone: "This is porridge, nothing added."

Upon hearing this, Harrison’s calves shook even more violently.

The master was surely angry, resentful, and blaming her.

It was all her fault, she had been too blunt earlier, completely disrespecting the master.

"Master, I didn’t..."

Before Harrison could finish her attempt to recover, the man’s long and elegant hand picked up the spoon that had been resting on the table and fed her a spoonful of porridge.

"Ah..."

Harrison reflexively opened her mouth and swallowed the porridge.

She was already starving, and in such a tense atmosphere, with the master suddenly offering a spoonful, she couldn’t think before obediently accepting it with her mouth.

Only after swallowing the spoonful of slightly cooled porridge did she suddenly realize—

Hadn’t she unwittingly let the master serve her?

Always accustomed to serving the master herself, never daring to let the master take care of her, Harrison was terrified.

But before she could find a way to remedy the situation, another spoonful of porridge was already poised at her lips.

Ben Lucas, at some point, had pulled out a chair and sat beside her.

The man supported his handsome, cold profile with his right hand on the table.

His left hand held the spoon, slightly impatient, hovering at her mouth.

"Eat quickly, then sleep." He ordered coldly, his tone filled with undisguised annoyance and disdain.

Harrison: "..."

Poor little Harrison was utterly stunned.

She stared at the master for a few seconds, and upon receiving his cold, warning glance, she quickly snapped and devoured the porridge brought to her lips.

She didn’t know what the master was thinking.

But at that moment, Harrison felt that this plain, tasteless porridge had become the warmest and most delicious food she had ever tasted in this world.

...

With the warm porridge in her stomach, the pain in Harrison’s long-empty stomach relieved.

"Phew...so delicious. So full..."

After finishing a bowl of porridge, Harrison contentedly rubbed her stomach and sighed.

Ben Lucas, who was responsible for feeding her, saw his previously dismissive subordinate obediently finishing a bowl of porridge, and unknowingly, some gloom disappeared from his expression.

Ben Lucas set down the spoon in his hand, stood up, and said coldly: "Wash the bowl before going upstairs to sleep."
