Listening to Raelle, Soren came to realize that she actually holds grudges. He never thought that Raelle would have a petty side but she did. Since he pointed out how her grandfather dictated her life, she actually remembered it and even used his own actions to remind him that his actions weren't any different from her grandfather's.

He decided not to continue this argument with her since there was no way, he'd win this battle of words. And he wasn't in the mood to lose right now. So, he silently just bore it for now.

"This meal is really delicious," stated Hyson. He had never been stingy with praises. Especially when it came to food, he'd be willing to wholeheartedly praise the chef to heaven as long as the food catered to his taste. And currently, he really enjoyed the food so he wasn't gonna be shy with his praises. "You have a real talent. I really respect that!"

Soren gave Hyson an amused look, "How is it a talent? I only made some simple homemade dishes. It's really easy and anyone can do it."

Hyson shook his index finger in a clear no-no manner saying, "No, no, no! Not everyone can make it. At least, I can't. And my overlord best friend can't either."

"Don't drag me into this," said Raelle.

Hyson disregarded her words and continued, "I really love the warmth of these homemade dishes. And someone like me who can't even boil water properly actually appreciates your talent a lot more."

Cloe chuckled at his words, "Maybe you should start learning how to cook then."

"Huh? Why?" asked Hyson in confusion.

"I heard people say if you can't cook, you can't marry a wife," said Cloe jokingly.

Hyson tilted his head to a side and shrugged his shoulders, "It's alright. If I can't marry a wife, I'll just bring in a husband."

Cloe almost spurted out the water in her mouth as she stared wide-eyed at Hyson's face who looked like he was being very serious about it. Soren on the side, covered his mouth to hide his laughter. Meanwhile, Hyson only paid attention to his best friend's reaction or more like her lack of reaction to his words.

"Wasn't I funny?" he questioned Raelle.

"I don't think so," responded Raelle.

Hyson tsked and patted her head as if consoling her as he said, "It's not your fault that your funny bone is missing."

Raelle followed his movements and patted his head saying, "It's also not your fault that you lost your brain."

Hyson rolled his eyes at her inwardly before telling Cloe, "If my good-for-nothing best friend can find a partner, certainly, I can do the same."

"Why are you dragging me in again?" asked Raelle. "Besides, I found my partner because my husband was looking for a wife, not a maid."

"Ohhh..." Hyson gave her an appreciating look before turning to Cloe, "See? That's what I wanted to hear. My Ellie always hit the mark." His smile turned sincere as he went on, "If and I mean if in the future I am looking for a partner, I certainly will make sure I can afford a cook. After all, I am fond of eating not of cooking."

"There is something seriously wrong with the way you both understand things," commented Cloe. "Also, are you sure Chief is a good-for-nothing? Aren't you afraid of heaven punishing you for lying to her face?"

"I'm not lying," retorted Hyson righteously. "She is a good-for-nothing. As for in what sense, I won't say it." Raelle didn't refute his words from the side tacitly agreeing with him. She basically had no living skills. If she was left alone, she'd probably die. Wasn't that the reason the people in her family paid extra attention to her needs?

Raelle held the collar of Hyson's shirt from the back and pulled him up saying, "We should leave now. Hyson needs to take his medicine and sleep early."

"Oh, yes. Hyson is still recuperating," said Soren. "I shouldn't too much of your time. We can gather again when you recover completely."

"Sure," agreed Hyson readily.

"You should inform me whatever you decide," Soren directed these words towards Raelle.

"Don't act like a broken record," responded Raelle.

Soren pursed his lips while Hyson laughed out softly while walking out with Raelle. Cloe was left staring at Soren's expression saying, "You should stop digging your own grave. Chief might really throw you to your death!" With that, she also picked up her handbag and left.

Sorren called out from behind, "At least, you take my side!"

Just as Raelle and Cloe's cars drove out one after another, a red car drove inside. As Sora stepped outside, she looked towards the cars leaving through the driveway. She frowned a little. She thought she saw Hyson in the car at the front but then she was thinking why he'd be here at her brother's place? It didn't really make sense.

.....

Time seemed to move at the pace of a tortoise. Or at least, that's what Shui Xian had been feeling lately. It had been about two weeks since he came here from home. It felt like just two weeks, but it seemed to be longer than that for Shui Xian who had been extremely frustrated lately. He had been away from his wife for so long and his work has yet not come to an end. What torture!

Taking a break, he had come to sit down on the grass field. Sighing, he kept pulling out the grass to show his inner feelings. He looked like a kid who was sulking and honestly speaking, he really was sulking.

He bent his arm behind his head and laid down on the green grass taking his arm as his pillow. He stretched out his other hand towards the sky as if to cover the sunlight falling on him. But suddenly, he opened his fingers allowing the sunlight to trickle through the sides of his fingers and fall on his face lazily.

He had so much on his mind right now. And yet, he kept getting distracted by the thought of his wife. He pulled out his phone and looked at the picture he had set as his lock screen. Looking at the side profile of that girl made his lips stretch in a smile.

How he wished to see that face right now. To touch that face and hug her.

When he noticed that this was the time for Raelle's lunch break, he hurriedly made a video call to her. The call was connected within seconds and his wife's face appeared before his eyes. He couldn't help smiling affectionately when he looked at her.

"Baby, whatcha doing?"

Raelle was setting the phone on the stand when she heard his voice and paused because of his 'Baby' and the way he said, 'whatcha doing?' However, choosing to completely overlook that 'Baby' she said, "I'm about to eat lunch. What are you doing?"

"I'm missing you," he said almost instantly without any hesitation. Seeing how Raelle only looked at him without saying anything, Shui Xian continued, "I'm not lying. These days, every single minute, I'm just missing you. It has gotten so bad that previously when I laid alone on my bed at night, I used to say, 'Hello, darkness! My old friend.' But now I say, 'Hello, darkness! Why are you back?'"

Raelle listened to him without disturbing him. She didn't mind him talking at all. In fact, she wanted him to continue talking more.

"So what can I do to make you feel better?" asked Raelle after thinking about it carefully.

"Mm..." Shui Xian tapped his chin thoughtfully. "How about singing me a song?"

"That I can't do" answered Raelle. "I can't sing."

"Just because you can't sing who said you shouldn't sing? No matter how bad your singing is, just sing it!"

"But I don't know any songs either," said Raelle truthfully. "Hyson says I don't have an ear for music because I don't like listening to music. Even if the music is playing around me, I have the talent to zone out of it."

"Wow! My wife's talents are remarkable!" commented Shui Xian.

"You can ask for anything else," suggested Raelle.

Shui Xian fell into thought. He seemed to be contemplating deeply.

"What is it that you want right now?" asked Raelle.

"Right now?"

Raelle nodded her head.

"Right now, I just want to hug you. Is it possible?"

Raelle was left blinking at him while he shook his head adding, "Forget it. I am just messing around. How about you tell me what you did today?"

"You really want to listen to the details of my morning schedule?" asked Raelle.

"I don't mind," answered Shui Xian. "As long as my wife is talking, I'll listen attentively. Even if she is cursing me."

"I don't curse," stated Raelle matter-of-factly.

Shui Xian burst out laughing and touched the screen as if he was caressing her face as he said, "I know that, my darling."
