A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 3097

Free? I never said anything about letting them have free food, though?

Lucius raised his head and looked towards Gabriella. He did not quite get her intentions. Gabriella, on the other hand, merely gestured for him to keep quiet.

"Free? Was this a surprise for us?"

"Yeah, Lucius! That's awesome!"

A few kids cheered excitedly, and the topic at hand immediately shifted.

At that moment, the only thing Lucius could do was smile, awkward as it may be, and keep quiet. Lo and behold, Joan saw everything that went down from the kitchen and felt really bad.

The free meal was a non-factor as the more important thing was that Lucius' pride was being stepped on.

When the kids finished the meal, it was already dark outside. So, after sending his classmates off, Lucius immediately ran into the kitchen and locked his gaze onto his mother. He felt extremely uneasy.

"Umm... What happened today, was my fault." He lowered his head.

What is he talking about? Joan was unconcerned as she had experienced these sorts of things several times by then. Hence, she was only worried about her son at that time.

"Lucius, do you feel indignant?" Joan crouched down and caressed the boy's head.

Indignant? Why? As long as everyone in the family is safe and happy. I couldn't care less about all that!

With that in mind, Lucius shook his head.

At the front, Gabriella was busy cleaning up the tables. She had zero intention of telling Joan what just happened. She knew that some things were better left unspoken, even though Joan already found out.

"Gabriella, thank you for helping Lucius out today," Joan said cautiously.

And Gabriella immediately put down her tools, raised her head, and smiled.
