Luna immediately turned around.
Behind her, Joshua stood at the kitchen door, smiling at herina blue apron that had flour stains on it.
Luna froze for a moment, staring at him in sheer disbelief.
Joshua had always been cold and aloof, and she had never seen him look as homely as this, with an
apron draped over his crisp white shirt.
Besides...
If she remembered correctly, he had never stepped foot ina kitchen in his life.
More than a year ago, when Nellie first returned to his side, Nellie had recorded a video of him
attempting to make her a meal in Blue Bay Villa.
Today, this man was standing before her eyes in an apron as though he had been cooking.
Joshua curled his lips into a smile as though he could see right through Luna's surprise.
There was not a hint of embarrassment or humiliation in his dark eyes at all, and instead, he appeared
calm and even a little proud.
"Neil's cooking has been improving so much lately that both Nellie and Nigel are utterly impressed.
"Since my son is such a talented cook, I figured that if I really put my heart into learning, I might be half
as good as him."
Then, he turned to stare at Luna, his smiling eyes etched with tenderness.
"Therefore, I thought that if I could learn to be a good chef like Neil, I might be able to bribe Ms.Luna
into loving me more."
Luna could not help bursting into laughter upon hearing this.
Clutching her stomach in fits of laughter, Luna finally turned to stare at Joshua.
"Have you ever considered the possibility that Neil had inherited his talent in cooking from me?"
Even though Joshua had never cooked for her before, judging from the meal he had made for Nellie
more than a year ago, Luna was fairly confident that Joshua's strength was not in cooking.
"What if he inherited it from me?"
Joshua was not willing to go down without a fight.
"I made you some cookies and tea.Would you like to try it?"
Luna pursed her lips but could not hide her smile anymore.
"Alright then.I'll give it a try."
Then, she strode into the kitchen.
Upon entering the kitchen, she realized that there was a plate of neatly stacked cookies in the shape of
little bunnies on the countertop.
Next to the cookies was a cup of steaming hot tea.
Even though she had not tasted them yet, Luna could not help finding these tidbits extremely pleasing
to the eye.She turned to glance at Joshua in shock.
"Did you make these?"
"Right as rain."
Joshua puffed his chest out in pride.
Luna furrowed her eyebrows gingerly picked up a cookie.It was surprisingly tasty and not overly sweet
as she had expected.
There was a hint of milkiness to the biscuits, which made it all the more tantalizing.She took a sip of the
tea; it was just as pleasant.
Seeing the surprised look on Luna's face, Joshua crossed his arms at his chest and leaned against the
doorframe, a triumphant smile on his lips.
"How is it? Was I right when I said that Neil could've inherited his talent in cooking from me?"
Luna pursed her lips and turned to scrutinize his face.She did not feel like complimenting him and
stroking his ego even more, but at the same time, she could not find it in herself to lie to him.
At this moment, Nigel strode into the kitchen and brought the cookies out to the dining room.
"Aunt Gwen, Uncle Luke, come try my Daddy's cooking!"
Gwen and Luke first froze in shock, then Gwen quickly popped a piece of cookies into her mouth.
"This is amazing! I never thought that besides being a good businessman, Mr.Lynch would be such an
exceptional cook, too!"
Upon hearing this, Luke furrowed his brows and picked up another cookie.
"She's right.This is quite delicious, I must say."
Luna finally found it in her to admit the truth.
