You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 504

"Lucille, forget it if you don't want..." Natasha felt extremely wronged.

"Since Natasha gave it to you, just take it." Marvin saw that Natasha was aggrieved, hence he spoke for her.

Lucille had no choice but to cover the box with the lid and kept it away.

"Lucille, it's really delicious."

Seeing Lucille had kept it, Natasha quickly brought out another similar cookie box. She took out two cookies, one for herself, and the other for Lucille.

Lucille was a little hesitant.

Marvin knew that there was an estrangement between the two of them. Therefore, he took the initiative, "Give me a piece too."

"Well, dad, you can eat Lucille's. Let her choose another piece." Natasha seemed to have known Lucille's thoughts.

Marvin took a bite of the butter cookie that he got from Lucille. He kept praising it after taking a bite.

Seeing Marvin's reaction, Lucille knew that she would put Marvin in a dilemma if she insisted to refuse. Thus, she had a taste of it. The cookie was indeed really tasty. It tasted better than all the cookies she had ever tried.

The cookie was so soft that it melted in her mouth directly.

"Does it taste good?" Natasha asked Lucille expectantly after she ate.

"Yeah." After eating the cookie, Lucille felt that she might be too suspicious of her earlier.

After that, Lucille left for her home. Although Marvin had asked her to stay, she insisted on going back home.

When Lucille reached home, the house was dark. The only source of light was from Abby's computer screen.

Lucille entered and turned on the lights. Then she put away everything she brought back and criticized Abby, "Don't you know it's bad for your eyes to work in a dark environment?"

"I'm too busy to be bothered about that." Abby was paying full attention at her computer screen. She did not even take a glance at Lucille when she replied.

Lucille was in a good mood, hence she took out a sketchbook to draw Abby's sloppy look.

While she was in the middle of her drawing, Abby was almost done with her work. She stood up and headed straight to the kitchen, "Let's have chicken and mushroom soup today."

Lucille was drawing. When she saw her standing up, she said, "I'll cook for you in a moment."

"That's not necessary. You are pregnant," Abby refused as she opened the kitchen cabinet. When she saw the box of butter cookies, she was overwhelmed with excitement, "Where did you get this? It's a Christmas limited edition. I didn't manage to get one earlier!"

"Really? It's from Natasha. Enjoy if you dare."

Lucille did not care about it. However, she felt that it was too strange for Natasha to give her a box of cookies for no reason.

"Why not? She can't put poison in the cookies anyway, can she?"

Abby murmured as she walked over with the box of cookies. She first took a piece from the top and fed Lucille a piece too.

Since Abby was feeding her, Lucille ate unwarily.

When she swallowed the entire cookie...

"D*mn! It's from Natasha, isn't it?"

Abby went ballistic all of a sudden!

"What's wrong?" Lucille looked up and saw that Abby threw all the cookies into the trash can. She was on alert instantly, "Did she really add poison into it?"

"It's even worse than adding poison!" Abby changed her clothes and hissed, "Your house is still at the same location?"

Lucille stood up and glanced at the trash can. The cookie box was at the top and the cookies were neatly placed inside the box. Only one tier of the cookies was emptied and there was a dead insect underneath...

That insect had a lot of legs, and it was long. Lucille tried to recall and finally remembered that it was a centipede!
