Blizzard, First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 382

“Your friend Evelyn and her husband will be here soon. We aren't in the same area, so I had to pull a few strings to clear their entry.”

“Well, thank you,” Isabel said, winking at him. “Make sure you eat plenty of dumplings tonight. I put something inside for good luck, to wish you peace and health forever.”

Julian chuckled. “You think that’s enough to pay me back?”

Isabel tapped her chest. “It’s the thought that counts.”

“There are plenty of good bars here at Halcyon Hills Residence.”

“Of course. Take your pick tonight.”

Julian raised an eyebrow. “Are you the one calling the shots now?”

“Drink as much as you want,” Isabel said.

After speaking, she went to get fruit to make tea and set out some nuts, telling them to help themselves.

“Don’t be shy. I’m just going to check on the kitchen, I’ll be out in a bit. Julian, you can play host for me.”

Julian waved his hand dismissively, picking up a teacup. “Go on, do your thing.”

Isabel headed to the kitchen, and Edmund immediately followed her.

Oliver, seeing this as a threat, quickly went over too.

“Mommy, I’ll help.”

“No need.” Isabel fed him a fried veggie bite.

Edmund let out an impressed “Wow.” “It’s as delicious as ever.”

Isabel poked his forehead. “Oh, stop it, you little charmer. Martha made these.”

Edmund smoothly changed his tune. “I know Martha, I’ve had her cooking before. But she said she learned from you, so the recipe was passed down. It’s all equally delicious.”

Martha smiled. “Such a sweet talker. Here, have one of these crispy snacks too.”

Edmund accepted the offering. “I’m so lucky.”

Martha said to Isabel, “This kid is something else. He’s so well-spoken and charming.”

Isabel was used to it.

Edmund was capable of developing pharmaceuticals; he didn't have the mind of an ordinary child.

That was why people were looking for him everywhere, hoping to study him.

“He’s spent too much time with Julian. He’s become a smooth-talker.”
