Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 1152

Noreen was speechless.

What on earth was he doing?!

Seth didn't rush. He kept peeling the shrimp and casually said, "I'm peeling these for you all."

He emphasized the word 'all'.

He was making it clear that he wasn't just catering to Noreen, but serving everyone at the table.

So, he systematically dropped a peeled shrimp onto Rosalind's plate, and then Evelyn's.

By the end of it, he had peeled the entire plate by himself.

The minor crisis was smoothly averted.

Noreen had no idea if Rosalind bought the excuse, but she did eat the shrimp Seth had peeled for her.

After dinner, Noreen volunteered to clear the table.

Evelyn tried to stop her, but it was no use.

Rosalind chimed in, "Evelyn, just let her do it. It's fine."

Noreen and Seth ended up clearing the dishes together.

In the kitchen, Seth took over washing them.

He wouldn't let Noreen lift a finger. Instead, he sliced up a plate of fruit and told her to stand by and eat while watching him work.

Noreen asked, "Did you really cook all of that?"

"Yeah."

"So you've been working all day?"

"Since this morning."

Noreen suddenly felt a twinge of guilt. "Let me wash these. You need to rest."

"Feeling bad for me?"

"Yeah," she nodded.

"Then kiss me, and I won't be tired anymore," he coaxed softly.

"Stop it." Noreen glanced nervously toward the door, terrified of being caught.

Seth leaned in slightly, his nose almost brushing hers. "They won't notice."

Noreen was skeptical, her heart hammering against her ribs.

"You sure?"
