Chapter 471 - It Turned Out...

"So you made me this porridge out of guilt?"

As if crushed by a lump of ice on top of his head, Oscar was stunned to hear the answer that came out of Lisa's lips. Now the pain was replaced by annoyance, or rather, disappointment.

"Is that all? Nothing else? Just because you feel guilty?" Oscar asked once more.

"Of course, why would I do all this for you if it's not because I feel guilty?"

Dani, who was lying and sleeping with his back against them, almost laughed out loud from having the secondhand embarrassment. He couldn't imagine the look on Oscar's face now. Did the man have a confused look on his face? Or angry? Ah, or is it as flat as always?

After Lisa's rude reply, no more sound could be heard in Oscar's room. The man only glanced at her for a moment then blew over his chicken porridge. Even though his heart was broken into pieces, he still tried to enjoy Lisa's cooking.

But Oscar allowed himself to be happy for a while and assumed that Lisa was actually worried about him. The chicken porridge made by the woman was one of the concrete proofs. If Lisa wasn't worried about him, why would that woman get up early to make him porridge?

What if he didn't protect Lisa at that time? And that his arm wasn't stabbed by the knife in Surya's hand? The woman must be in the office by now and not making him porridge! If this is the way, Oscar prefers to be stabbed often to get more attention from Lisa.

Maybe he's overdoing it. Oscar didn't want to be stabbed again by a knife or other sharp object. It was enough for him to feel his body being sewn up once.

"Are you smiling to yourself? My food isn't good, is it?" Lisa asked suddenly.

From the moment the woman saw Oscar, she couldn't stop smiling to herself. She became more curious and speculated that the taste of the chicken porridge she made was bland. What a fool! The woman didn't taste the porridge before she gave it to him!

Oscar turned his head, "Huh? No. I've just remembered a funny incident."

Hearing his answer even more made Lisa feel something was wrong. That guy must be laughing at the taste of her chicken porridge!

"Oscar, have you forgotten? I've known you long enough to know that you're lying." Lisa huffed in annoyance. "Just tell me that my cooking isn't good!"

"Gosh Lisa, I really wasn't laughing at you! I remember a funny incident a few years ago when William was learning to walk." Oscar replied nervously. To be honest, he was so busy with his work that he didn't watch his son step foot for the first time. 

They were too eager to throw accusations and lies to the point that they forgot about Dani's presence. Their bickering stopped for a moment when their ears heard the sound of movement on the bed.

Dani is not a stupid man who doesn't pay attention to his surroundings. The man felt like a mosquito coil between the ex-husband and wife. Finally, Dani got off the bed and walked over to them with limp footsteps.

"You can talk a little longer here because I want to go home for a while. I still have to get some clean clothes for myself and Mr Oscar too."

"Hey, Danny. Aren't you going to sleep?" Lisa asked stupidly. So stupid that she didn't know the real reason why Oscar's personal assistant didn't want to take a nap in the patient's room.

"Ah yes, before I could fall asleep, I remembered something. That's why I decided to go home for a while and get some clean clothes for myself tonight." Dani replied carelessly.

Actually, some clean clothes had been provided in the small closet. And he was one hundred percent sure that Oscar already knew about it.

Oscar actually replied to Lisa's words. The man cleared his throat and again blew the surface of the chicken porridge. "Hurry up and go. You don't have to hurry back here, it's fine."

"Okay, sir." Danny replied with a chuckle. 

"Dani, don't go yet!" Suddenly, Lisa's voice came from behind when Dani wanted to open the door. The man turned around and saw her taking the container that she had placed on the table. "You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Here, you can eat my porridge before going home!"

Since then, Dani's stomach has been shaking violently. The smell of the porridge, which was still warm and definitely delicious, was able to almost make his saliva drip out. But how could he eat Oscar's chicken porridge? He'd be dead just by his boss' deadly glare!

"Oh haha, don't bother. I can eat out anyway!"

Dani still wants to live a little longer. And if his life was short, he would like to die in any way as long as it wasn't in Oscar's hands!

That man could tear him apart if he wanted! Dani wouldn't risk his life over a damn chicken porridge!

Especially knowing that the man with clear blue eyes still has feelings for Lisa. Dani can't imagine what will happen if he is desperate enough to accept Lisa's offer!

Without waiting for a reply from Lisa, Dani turned around and rushed out of the patient's room. His stomach could not be compromised anymore. Maybe the man should stop at the cafeteria for breakfast before going home.

Not long after Dani left Oscar's room, the atmosphere became quiet and awkward. The only sounds that could be heard were the chirping of birds outside the window, the sound of footsteps outside the room, and that of a spoon hitting the bottom of a plate.

Watching Oscar devour her homemade chicken porridge made Lisa sure that the food tasted delicious. Honestly, this was the first time she tried to make chicken porridge. And luckily, the taste of the food did not disappoint.

Whether Oscar was blinded by love or else, what was clear was that the man thought Lisa's chicken porridge was much tastier than the one made by a local seller who usually strolled by his house!

After taking the plate from Oscar's hands, Lisa smiled faintly. "How does it feel? Isn't it nice?"

"Lisa, I can swear that your chicken porridge tastes so much better than any other porridge I've ever eaten! Even a five-star restaurant can't match the taste of your cooking!"
