Chapter 285 You Are A Mere Servant (2/2)

”Let's eat,” Amelia repeated with an awkward smile.

”Well, Amelia, it's not that I am picky, but this food is so bland.” Looking at the dishes on the table, Sasha shrugged and looked bored.

This surprised Amelia. And she asked, ”So...would you like the food to be a little more spicy?”

”Not really,” Sasha replied. ”In fact, I rather prefer bland food, but I really don't want to eat these dishes.” Sasha didn't give her answers much thought and just spoke what was on her mind.

”Hey, can you stop?” Lily had finally spoken up. ”Mrs. Amelia made the effort of making the food a little bland because something too sweet or spicy may be bad for your baby,” she said.

”Lily, stop talking,” Amelia interrupted her. ”Lucian and I also like spicy food. I'll cook something spicy next time.”

This upset Sasha.

”I didn't like it that flavorful as much before,” she confessed. ”But since I got pregnant, my appetite has changed.” Sasha said this with a hint of sadness, using her baby for sympathy.

Amelia smiled and left it at that, choosing not to reply.

Lily decided to follow suit and not dwell on it further as well.

The dinner ended in quiet and peaceful silence.

”Mrs. Amelia, please go and have rest. I'll wash the dishes.” After the meal, Lily cleaned the table quietly by herself.
