Chapter 859: Chapter 858: Very Tempted (4)

His gaze held a deeper meaning, and for a moment, Bella couldn’t comprehend why it was because of her.

But facing such a gaze, her ears felt a bit hot, and she quickly looked away, focusing on her meal.

Sharon noticed the interaction between the two, smiled slightly, and placed some food in Damian’s bowl, saying, "Damian, drinking on an empty stomach can harm your gut. Eat something."

"Thank you." Damian ate the dishes placed by the two, and then added a piece of sweet and sour pork rib to Bella’s bowl, "Don’t just eat vegetables, have some meat too."

"Oh." Bella bit into the rib, saying, "I also want that pork trotter."

Damian reached over and placed the corner of the pork trotter into her bowl, casually asking, "Do you want some fish?"

"I don’t feel like picking out the bones." Bella focused on her meal.

Damian picked up some fish and put it in his own bowl, removing the bones before placing the fish meat in her bowl, "You can eat it now."

"Oh."

"Hehe." Sharon chuckled warmly before saying, "Damian, don’t spoil her like this." Though she said this, seeing Damian catering to Bella made her happy.

Ethan, sitting beside them, was already used to the way the two ate, just focused on his own food and not speaking. Even while eating, his back was upright and proper, a posture uncannily similar to Damian’s.

Actually, deep down Ethan admired Damian, so even if he was upset for making his sister sad before, he subconsciously learned from his every move.

"Ethan, you should try this pork trotter too, it’s especially soft since godmother used a pressure cooker." Bella placed the trotter meat into Ethan’s bowl, saying, "Is school getting intense recently? Can you keep up with the courses here?"

"Mm, I can." Ethan replied, "The current courses are ones my former tutor taught before."

"What about violin? You’re about to enter middle school soon, and there’ll be performances. Won’t it be too exhausting? How about we pause the violin for now?" Bella interacted with Ethan and Talia in a way where they discussed together, seeking each other’s opinions before making decisions, never deciding unilaterally for them.

"No need." Ethan said, "I want to apply to a music academy in the future, and additionally study economics."

So, does this mean planning to be both a musician and dive into business? Won’t Ethan be pushing himself too hard?

Bella thought for a moment, "Alright, you have a plan, so I won’t interfere. But Ethan, relax when you need to, don’t push yourself too hard. You’re already excellent."

Ethan finally showed a smile on his cool face, "Sis, I know, don’t worry."

"You, I wish I could worry about you, but you need to give me reasons to worry first." Bella added more food to his plate, "Eat more, don’t stay up late doing homework. Such beautiful eyes—how bad it would be to need glasses if they get nearsighted."

"Alright, I’ll pay attention." Ethan nodded seriously.

Sharon interjected, "Bella, don’t just talk about Ethan, what about yourself? You’ve been working non-stop since getting back, don’t push yourself too hard."

Bella touched her nose, "Don’t worry, godmother. I’ve discussed it with Ms. Young, we’ll focus on quantity for the first two years, then shift to quality, only doing one or two productions a year, it won’t be exhausting."

"A single production can take six months, two productions mean a year, and you call that not exhausting?" Damian glanced at her askance.
