Melody assumed that Lucas was about to put on another act in front of his relatives. However, every word and action of Lucas made her feel extremely frustrated, to the point that she could not even drink her tea.

"Thanks for your concern, Lucas, but I'm not in a hurry..." responded Sherman awkwardly.

"I'm just giving you a friendly reminder. Besides work, you should focus your attention on meaningful relationships so as not to worry your parents," Lucas added.

Lucas silently looked at the glass in his hand, his profile resembling a carefully sculpted statue-dangerous and secretive.

Sherman detected a hint of warning in his words, and his expression stiffened.

Meanwhile, Stella was on the verge of exploding. How could someone like Melody, who was as silent as a mute, be worthy of being Lucas' wife? What could she do when she could not even handle the most basic social interactions? Stella felt that if she were Lucas' wife, she would handle his relatives much more efficiently unlike the useless Melody.

The room was eerily quiet before the food arrived, like a state of deathly stillness. The four people at the table each were lost in their own thoughts.

Finally, the waiter cover to serve the food, breaking the silence.

"Hello! Your first dish is raw fish. Here are the Japanese horseradish and soy sauce. Please do pair the fish with those two as it enhances the taste of it." Melody looked at the plates of raw seafood and immediately lost her appetite. The only raw food she could tolerate was the occasional small piece of sushi. She could not eat it just like that.

Unexpectedly, the restaurant had a rule of serving raw dishes first before cooked ones; the freshwater eel rice she ordered would be served much later.

Stella enthusiastically placed the raw sea urchin in front of Lucas.

She then explained to Melody with a smile, "Lucas had fallen in love with the sea urchin here ever since we had it in this restaurant for the first time. The quality of the sea urchins here is amazing, and they cwith a special secret sauce. Give it a try. It's one of this restaurant's signature dishes." However, Lucas did not take the sea urchin Stella offered him. Instead, he signaled the waiter to bring the cooked dishes first.

Stella was taken aback and asked with ssurprise, "Lucas, didn't you say that those who eat cooked dishes first at a sushi restaurant don't understand Japanese food at all? What's the matter with you today?" Melody lost even more appetite as she observed Stella's act.

Lucas remained expressionless. "Things change, and so do people's preferences." Stella clenched her fist under the table while attempting to maintain a smiling face.

"Haha! I was just asking. You're right. It's normal for habits to change. But the sea urchin here is still fresh and sweet. It'll be a shnot to try it." While they were chatting, Melody picked up a shrimp. It would be rude of her not to at least eat something.

The raw shrimp did not have any unusual smell. Stella mentioned that the type Lucas used to love was not this one but a deep-sea variety, each one priced at over a few hundred dollars.

However, Melody found it somewhat difficult to accept eating raw shrimp. After scontemplation, she delicately pushed the shrimp to the side of her plate.

Lucas observed everything she did silently. A barely noticeable smile appeared at the corner of his lips Just as he was about to suggest not forcing herself to eat it if she did not like it, Sherman preempted him.

"Don't you like raw food? Your freshwater eel rice will be here soon.

How about smore tea?" Melody smiled and shook her head. "I just finished the coffee you brought, so I'm not hungry at all." Sherman grinned. "Good thing I brought you the coffee then. Melody, you really should thank me!" Melody smiled politely. "Thank you, Sher-" X Bang! Search the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
