Eating was definitely Silvia's forte. She had ordered two portions of beef stew, a plate of pasta, a portion of Bratwurst, and even a pork burger.
Although Jayden knew that Silvia was a big eater, he was still surprised. "Silvia, are you sure that you can finish all of these?!"
"Excuse me, could you please leave the menu here? I might be ordering more later. Thanks." After ordering the dishes, Silvia looked at Jayden who was sitting opposite her. "What's wrong? You're Young Master Kyle, aren't you? Do you think that I'll make you go broke for treating me to one meal?"
"I'm not afraid of that at all. I'm just worried that you'll get indigestion after finishing so much food." Jayden waved his hand and stopped the waiter. "Excuse me, could you please cancel the bratwurst and the burger for us? Thanks."
Silvia was so annoyed that she immediately stood up from her seat. She pointed her finger at Jayden and complained, "Jayden Elias Kyle, how could you?! You promised to treat me to a nice meal and would let me eat whatever I want, but what are you doing now? How could you just cancel the order? Why did you even agree to treat me to this meal if you are going to be so stingy?"
Jayden dismissed the waiter, and then settled Silvia down on her seat, "It's not that I'm not letting you eat, I just don't want you to get indigestion."
Silvia said angrily, "Jayden, do you think I'm stupid? Do you think that I can't tell if I've eaten too much? That's how much I could eat, you can't blame me for it."
Jayden advised, "Alright... Be a good girl, okay? If you're not full later, I'll ask Auntie Cherry to prepare some supper for you."
Silvia said angrily, "Why bother? Can't you just let me eat until I'm full now?"
Jayden said, "I've already made up my mind."
Once Jayden had made a decision, no matter how she complained, she still would not be able to change his mind. So, Silvia knew that it was better to just listen to him than wasting her time and energy to argue with him, "So I really can have supper tonight?"
Jayden said, "Of course you can. But on the condition that you have to be a good girl."
Silvia didn't know what to say.
She really wanted to kick him to the other side of the universe.
A stingy man like him would never be able to get himself a wife. It was really a great loss for her to marry him.
Jayden added, "Just listen to me, okay? It's for your own good!"
When she heard him talking to her in such a commanding tone, Silvia got angry and said, "You always want me to listen to you. If you want me to listen to you, then why can't you listen to me too? You are my man. Can't you just let me win once? Why do you have to go against me every single time and upset me?"
Jayden was determined to stop Silvia from eating so much, but when he heard her saying that he was her man, he had already lost.
He was so excited that he grabbed her hand. "Silvia, what did you just say? Say it again!"
Silvia was startled by his sudden action and wanted to retreat. However, he was holding on to her hand so firmly that she couldn't get away from him. "Did I say it wrongly though? You are my man. Can't you just let me win once?"
"Silly girl, everything would have been fine if you had said so from the beginning," Jayden smiled as he said. Then, he held her face in his palms and kissed her.
She was right. He was her man, and he should have let her win.
Jayden immediately waved his hand at the waiter and reordered the dishes that he canceled a while ago. On top of that, he had even ordered some desserts for her. He was determined to let her eat to her heart's content.
Silvia was dumbstruck as she looked at him behaving in such a strange manner.
What's wrong with this man? Was he alright?
Just as she was thinking about it, Jayden suddenly got close to her face. Silvia was so startled that she immediately leaned back. However, Jayden grabbed the back of her head and said, "Before we start eating, let me have a taste of the appetizer first."
