At the mention of her name, Levi's anger spiked. "Don’t mention that ungrateful brat."
"It looks like I have hit the nail on the head. You are flustered and embarrassed." Ronald chuckled. "Young Master Brown, don't tell me that you have fallen for her?"
If Levi wasn't keenly interested in Monique, he would not have held her in his arms the night before when she was unconscious for fear that she would catch a cold.
He noticed that Levi was exhausted and wanted to lend a hand, but Levi shot him a warning stare before shifting his gaze back to Monique again.
It seemed that Levi was staring at something precious to him when he looked at Monique.
At that instant, Ronald realised that Levi had fallen for Monique.
However, Levi didn’t seem to realize his feelings for Monique. He declared, "Ronald, mark my words. If I fall in love with Monique, I will experience erectile dysfunction for the rest of my life."
Ronald felt that he wasn't far from the tragedy. He teased, "Well, break a leg!"
Levi kicked him in the shins as he muttered through clenched teeth, "F*ck you!¹'
Lunch was quite sumptuous.
Well, it was seafood.
However, they had eaten similar food for days and were sick of it, especially for Monique who didn't really have an appetite.
Staring at the grilled fish and several large lobsters, Monique almost vomited. She did not even feel appetized at all.
Nevertheless, Monique felt that she should at least force herself to eat something. After all, Ronald and Levi worked hard to prepare the meal, and it seemed disrespectful to let their efforts go down the drain. Just as she was going to grab a grilled fish, Levi stood up abruptly and announced, "I'm sick of eating this kind of food every day. Ronald, come with me. Let's go and see if there are any other animals or wild plants that are edible on the island."
They were all sick of seafood, but since the meal has been prepared, they could always look for something new before the next meal. However, since Young Master Brown had already voiced his dissatisfaction, Ronald had no reason to refuse. "Monique, Cecil, you two wait here. We'll go and look for something else to satisfy our cravings."
Cecil was just about to take a bite of the lobster. She said in exasperation, "Both of you, these seafood are so fresh and free from pollution. Many people would die to get a chance to have such fresh seafood. Let's finish this meal and think of something else for the next meal."
Ronald nudged her and gave a curt intimation for her to keep quiet. Young Master Brown was fuming mad, it was best not to go against him.
Cecil was quite sharp and understood at once. She immediately said, "However, it’s a great idea and I'm touched beyond words. Thank you in advance!"
Upon hearing their suggestion, Monique was thrilled. This was exactly what she wanted. "Let me follow you. The more the merrier and the three of us will be able to catch more wild animals."
Levi glowered at her. "Who said you are allowed to follow us?"
