2024-09-12 22:54:31"What does it have to do with you?" Blake Morgan was the first to reply.
"Grandpa is right. What does it have to do with you?" Alice also replied in the group.
Seeing their responses, Mason Morgan was speechless and could only send a series of question marks in the group to express his astonishment.
"Dad, although you have the final say in Alice's matters, and I trust your judgment, I should at least know what kind of man my daughter is going to marry, right? I'll find time to go over and take a look after a while. There are too many things going on here in Metropolis City at the moment. @Blake Morgan," after a long time, Mason Morgan sent another lengthy message.
"Do as you wish. It's not like you can change anything anyway," Blake Morgan said rather domineeringly.
"Dad, you're overthinking. It's only just beginning now!" Alice was obviously a bit exasperated too.
After replying, Alice put down her phone.
"Why aren't you eating yet?" At this moment, Joseph also came out from the kitchen. He placed the last dish on the table.
"Ah? I was waiting for you! I thought about it and felt it wasn't quite right to start eating alone," Alice was slightly stunned, then answered.
"Try it. No need to be so formal," Joseph picked up a piece of cheese steak for Alice, making her feel a sense of bliss.
"Thank you," Alice expressed her gratitude, then took a bite.
However, after just one bite, her expression changed, and she instantly froze.
"Um, how is it? Not tasty?" Joseph noticed Alice's unusual expression and asked.
However, Alice didn't answer. Instead, she picked up two more pieces and started eating.
"If it's not tasty, don't force yourself. Try something else?" Joseph blinked and suggested.
"Joseph, what are you saying? What do you mean by not tasty? It's too delicious! How can it be so delicious? This is the most delicious cheese steak I've ever eaten. It's simply too good."
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to eat first. It's too delicious," Alice couldn't wait to start eating. She was already a bit hungry, and with such delicacies in front of her, she found it even harder to control herself.
"This is delicious!"
"Oh, this is delicious too."
"This one, this one, even more delicious."
"Wow, this is the most delicious. It's too good."
As she ate, Alice kept praising Joseph endlessly.
Hearing this, Joseph felt a bit unreal. Was it really that delicious?
"Isn't this just an ordinary home-cooked meal? Is it really that delicious?" Joseph smiled awkwardly. Was this girl just teasing him?
"Joseph, you're being too humble. Whew, even the top chefs in my family can't make dishes as delicious as yours."
"Joseph, be more confident. You're really amazing and awesome," Alice continued to praise him while not stopping her hands from eating.
Joseph smiled and started eating too.
Alice ate more dishes, while Joseph ate more rice. Since childhood, Joseph had always had a huge appetite.
After about an hour, Alice was finally full. Although Joseph had a large appetite, he was already full at this point.
"If it's not enough, I can make more for you," Joseph noticed Alice's lingering desire for more.
"Ah? No, no. I can't eat anymore. Really can't eat anymore," Alice quickly responded.
She seemed to have been eating a bit like a wolf just now, not very ladylike. Would Joseph dislike her?
Thinking about this, Alice felt a bit uneasy.
"That's good then," Joseph smiled.
"Joseph, I don't usually eat so unladylike. Do you prefer gentler girls?" Alice asked tentatively.
"You just need to be the way you like. It doesn't matter what kind of girls I like," Joseph chuckled.
"How can that be? That's too casual," Alice shook her head.
"Then let me put it another way. I like all your ways," Joseph said with a smile.
"Ah? Are you serious?" When Joseph said this, Alice's pretty face instantly turned red. She turned around and fled back to her room.
Joseph watched Alice's departing figure and just laughed. She was already eighteen years old, yet still like a child.
After Alice left, Joseph began to clean up.
Back in her room, it took a long time for Alice's burning heart to cool down.
"So, Joseph likes me too. Does that mean we have mutual feelings?" Alice lay on the bed, hugging her big plush doll, talking to herself.
Suddenly, she thought of something, grabbed her phone, dialed Blake Morgan's number, and called.
Before long, the call was answered.
"Hello, Alice. How is it going? Have you arranged everything?" Blake Morgan's voice came from the other end of the line.
"Of course. It's not a difficult task. I've settled Joseph in," Alice replied.
"So, what's the matter? Calling grandpa so late?" Blake Morgan asked again.
"There's nothing in particular. I just wanted to tell you that Joseph's cooking skills are really good, much better than those top chefs in our family," Alice couldn't stop praising Joseph's culinary skills.
"Hahaha... Is that so? Now I want to taste it even more."
"However, I can't fully trust your opinion on it being delicious because, in the eyes of someone you love, even their flaws are virtues," Blake Morgan couldn't help but tease.
"What do you mean by 'someone you love'? My relationship with Joseph is not certain yet!" Alice said this, but her heart was happy.
"I remember three years ago, when Joseph married into the Cooper family, someone in our family hid and cried for a day and night, with swollen eyes."
"She even said Joseph Wilson had promised to marry her and that Joseph wasn't a man of his word," Blake Morgan teased again.
"Grandpa, you... Always teasing people. I won't talk to you anymore," Alice's pretty face turned slightly red, unable to keep a straight face. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Blake Morgan, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Alice opened F******k and found that her update had exploded with 99 comments.
Moreover, when she opened it, she saw that all 99 comments on the update were from the food photos she had just posted, mostly from boys.
"Alice, who is this man? He's not your boyfriend, is he?"
"Alice, are you in a relationship? Which family's young master is this?"
"Joseph? Who is Joseph?"
"Fuck, if he becomes your boyfriend, I'll kill him..."
"Hehe... Don't let me see this guy in Nova City. Every time I see him, I'll beat him up twice..."
Alice read the comments for a while. They were all a mess.

“My name is Joseph. I’m Mason’s boyfriend. Hello—nice to meet you.”Joseph introduced himself.“Tharion, this is the man who saved our family,” Vincent Alvarez reminded him.“In our community, we have a custom: if someone saves a child’s life, the child recognizes that person as their godfather.”“Archie, come here! Why aren’t you kneeling to call him godfather?” Neil Alvarez dragged Archie over.Before Joseph could react, Archie dropped to his knees with a thud and knocked his forehead to the floor three times.“Godfather!”Archie called out obediently.Joseph was so startled by the scene that he immediately took two steps back.“Happy now? You’ve got yourself a son!” Mason Alvarez was laughing so hard she could barely breathe. With her professional training, she usually never laughed—unless she absolutely couldn’t help it.“No—that’s not… that doesn’t seem right.” Joseph was a bit dazed.The whole thing made Madeline Castillo burst out laughing in exasperation.“Neil Alvarez, you bi

“I don’t want to. I can’t take it. If you mess around again, I won’t be able to get out of bed.”“Besides, it’s early morning. Can you not?” Mason said as she scooted away from Joseph, wrapping the quilt tightly around herself like a cocoon.“Then behave,” Joseph said with a wicked grin.“Oh.” Mason looked up at him, wide-eyed and pitiful.“You iron brute—how are you not the least bit tired after going at it all night?” she asked, curiosity edging into her embarrassment.“Maybe my body’s a little different—constitution’s not like most people’s,” Joseph said.“I used to wonder what had the little minx so obsessed with you,” Mason murmured, cheeks coloring. “Now I finally get it.”“What is it you get?” Joseph asked.“You’ve got your…talents. You’ve got your capital.”“And the capital you’ve got—well, it can make a woman lose herself,” she said, flushing deeper.Joseph, despite himself, glanced down at a certain place. Was that the “talent” she meant? The way she said it definitely carri

“What do you think? I’m here to cuddle. I want to hold you while I sleep. I want to fall asleep breathing you in.”Mason pressed closer, looping her arms gently around Joseph’s neck. She nuzzled his jaw with her nose, planted a quick, impish kiss on his cheek, then nestled her face into the warm hollow of his neck.She was all languid kitten, the kind that made your hands itch to stroke.“Like this, how am I supposed to sleep?” Joseph said, half helpless.“I don’t care. This is how I want to be. Or better yet, let’s not sleep at all—let’s talk till dawn. Heh-heh!”She giggled, delighted with herself.“Do you think I’m terribly childish?” she asked suddenly.“Haven’t you always been… like that? Childish? Maybe not childish. Not exactly,” he said, idly twining her hair around his fingers.“I’m only like this with you. You’re the man I like—my first, and my last.”“I love you. So I want to show you every side of me.”Her voice was sweet as honey. She leaned in and brushed his cheek with

“We can’t run experiments outside, but back in the room we can.”“But didn’t we run an experiment last night?”“Now it’s time to discuss the results.”Mason Alvarez sat on the edge of the bed and patted the space beside her, signaling Joseph to come over.“Don’t beat around the bush. Just say it.”Joseph’s mind stuttered.“So—do you feel any stronger?”Mason snuck a glance at him, asking with a hint of shyness.At that, Joseph finally remembered something important—something he’d actually managed to forget.“Oh—that.”He tapped his forehead.“Well? Any more formidable than before?” Mason pressed.Joseph rolled up his sleeve and flexed. The veins stood out beneath his skin; even at a glance, the power coursing through him was palpable.Mason swallowed without meaning to, staring at his power-laden arm. The sheer strength of it unsettled her a little.“Feels like my strength jumped again,” Joseph said, certain after a moment of listening to his body’s thrum.“Are you sure?” Mason asked.

“Let’s talk inside,” Toby said, slipping past Pauline into the room.She followed him in.“Toby Dristan, I’ll forgive you this once—last time. If there’s a next time, we’re done.” Pauline’s brows knit, her tone imperious. “And just so you know, the line of men chasing me could stretch from the village gate to Nova City.”“Pauline, listen to me.” Toby lowered his head slightly and set a steady hand on her shoulder, as if gathering resolve.“What are you doing?” A bad feeling prickled through her.“Pauline, I think we need to reevaluate our relationship,” he said at last, calm and decided.“Reevaluate? What’s that supposed to mean?” Her frown deepened.“Exactly what it sounds like. As for the particulars—take them as you will,” he said lightly, with a small nod.“You’re breaking up with me?” Pauline stared at him, incredulous. The man who had always deferred to her, never once threatening to end things—he dared say it now?“If that’s how you understand it, I won’t disagree,” Toby replie

“They’ve gotten closer. The two of them are on the couch watching TV—Mason was feeding Joseph grapes,” Madeline said, pleased.“Looks like our strategy worked,” Stanley murmured after sneaking a glance outside. “They really did need a nudge from us.”“Right? I knew I wasn’t wrong,” Madeline said with a touch of pride.“If I hadn’t remembered the spare key, this might not have happened,” Stanley added.“That’s right. When husband and wife work in concert, there’s nothing we can’t do,” Madeline said with a giggle, and the two of them slapped palms, delighted with themselves.“Now no one can say our daughter can’t find a husband. Just look how outstanding our son-in-law is. Ugh, my ridiculous vanity,” Madeline sighed, smiling.“Exactly. Now when I play chess with the old fellows, I’ll have something to brag about,” Stanley said, happy enough that even washing dishes felt easier.“Mr. Wilson, I want grapes,” Mason said, parting her tempting lips.“Then eat them,” Joseph said, helpless.“Y
