I Only Want You novel Chapter 339

Zena's hand which was holding the chopsticks paused, but in less than a second, her expression returned to normal. She put the food into Xavier's bowl and turned to Elizabeth with a smile, "Oh. Elizabeth, I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking."

Elizabeth smiled awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Zena. Your cooking skills are better than me."

At this time, Xavier said, "Pretty good."

He praised the cooking skills, but he didn't express it clearly.

But all the people present knew whose cooking skills he was referring to in an instant.

John and Lydia knew Xavier well. Although they were surprised to hear his words, they only thought that he was just being polite and didn't think too much. However, Zena pressed her lips and didn't say anything, while James frowned.

Elizabeth smiled awkwardly and thanked him. She only felt that the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange, so she didn't say anything else and ate silently.

James picked some dishes for Elizabeth and said, "Slow down."

Zena looked at them. After looking away, she glanced at Xavier next to her with the corner of her eye. She smiled and then continued to eat. The lively meal became silent because of this incident, and no one said anything during the meal. Although the atmosphere was not as good as just now, everyone ate more quickly.

After dinner, John suggested everyone to take a seat in the living room.

James wanted to refuse him, but Lydia said, "Just listen to your father. Xavier and you haven't been together for a long time. I asked Auntie Chang to warm the soup for you just now. Sit for a while and drink it before you leave."

Seeing Lydia's concerned look, James knew that she was worried about him and Elizabeth. Besides, it was still early, so he agreed.

Elizabeth sat for a while and went to the kitchen to cut fruits.

Auntie Chang was washing the bowls. When she saw Elizabeth doing what she should do, she said with a smile, "Young Madam, you have done all my work, and Master and Madam will fire me."

"Auntie Chang, don't joke with me!" Elizabeth said while washing fruits, "I sit over there and have nothing to do. In this way, I can help you and feel easy at the same time. It's so good."

"Actually, Miss Meng and Mr. Lu are easy to get along with. They are polite and easy-going."

"Yeah, I know." Auntie Chang stood for a while and said, "Young Madam, the soup I warmed for Young Master is on the stove, and the stewed pear for Mr. Lu is being cooked now. I'm going to water the garden now. Master told me to do that in the afternoon."

Elizabeth nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead. Auntie Chang, I'll help you watch it."

Not long after Auntie Chang went out, Elizabeth finished cutting the fruits. She looked at the exquisite fruits on the plate and smiled with satisfaction. When she was about to go out, a voice came from behind her—
