Chapter 2439
Cole touched his nauseated and tumbling stomach. The stench of the septic tank seemed to linger on the tip of his nose. When he heard that it was time to eat, he felt nauseated and wanted to vomit again.
"Ugh... I'm not eating. I'm not eating." Cole held his stomach and waved his hands. "Don't ever mention anything about eating again."
Jay fiercely said to him, "Angeline worked so hard to cook a table of food for us. She'll be upset if you choose not to appreciate her cooking." Cole looked at Jay speechlessly. "I know you're a wifeloving maniac, but this is too much even for you."
Jay was unrelenting, so Cole could simply bite the bullet and head to the dining table.
When Cole saw the mushroom soup on the dining table, he suddenly thought of the septic tank again. Unable to hold himself back, he covered his mouth and hurried to the bathroom to vomit.
Angeline asked while wondering, "What happened to Cousin Cole?"
Jay resisted the nausea that was churning in his stomach and calmly explained, "Cousin Cole must've gotten his stomach messed up from traveling the world."
Shirley was in between laughter and tears.
Angeline said, "Then he should hurry up and see a doctor to get himself treated."
After Cole vomited, he heard Jay saying nonsense with a deadpan look on his face. He said weakly, "I truly admire you, Cousin. Don't you have OCD? Can you bear the stench of the septic tank?"
Jay made a gesture as he glared at Cole viciously." Don't mention things you shouldn't be mentioning."
From the few words they were exchanging, Angeline had already guessed the reason for their lack of appetite. She was very ashamed and blamed herself." It's my memory. I clearly set the ring into the necklace myself, but I forgot all about it. Am I having early menopause?"
"Lil Sis, you're not even 40 years old. Menopause is still early for you."
Angeline said, "It's two years away."
The look of sadness on Angeline's face made Jay feel bad. He took Angeline's hand and comforted her with kind words, saying, "It's all thanks to you that I found
something to do with Cole, Angeline. Otherwise, we would've been very bored. We almost couldn't find a path to live our lives."
Cole's handsome face twitched slightly. He looked like he was in pain and was also extremely speechless at Jay, the wife-loving maniac.
Jay rolled his eyes at him and changed the subject wisely.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"It's fine if you don't eat, Cousin. You should lose weight. After not seeing you for a while, you've gotten fat."
Cole touched his fairly well-defined chin, turned his head, and asked Sis Shirley, "Have I truly gotten fat, darling?"
Shirley, being an honest person, had no idea how to lie.
She glanced at Jay and said, "If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have noticed. After hearing Jay say that, I do think that your skin is slig
saggy compared to your cousin."
Cole stood up in shock. With the expression as if the world had ended, he said, "That's unreasonable. Jay is several years older than me."
Jay gave him a slap in the face before saying something sweet to coax him. "Why do you care about that face of yours? It's not like you can depend on it to make a living. In any case, no matter how much fatter you've gotten, Sis Shirley won't despise you for it."
Cole breathed a sigh of relief. "That's true. I have a wife and a son now, so it doesn't matter if I'm chubby."
However, Jay said, "Don't get too fat now, or else it'll affect my appetite when we eat together in the future." Cole was fuming...
"Alright. I'll work out when I get back."
The few of them were chatting happily when Shirley suddenly said, "By the way, why don't I see Zayne and Josie?"
Angeline replied, "Zayne and Josie experienced some things some time ago. They need some time to settle back down. I'm trying my best not to disturb them."
