Chapter 385 Mia’s Purpose
When they came downstairs, the dishes on the dining table, which should have been pleasing, were
scattered. It was obvious that they were leftovers.
The perpetrator was sitting behind the table, leisurely drinking the hot water in the cup.
Seeing her coming down, Mia said shamelessly, “Miss Shelton,
your parents are really good at cooking. This is one of the best
dishes I’ve ever eaten.”
Evelyn didn’t feel very honored to receive such an evaluation.
She hadn’t expected Mia to be so thick-skinned as to do such
an ill-bred thing. Evelyn curled her lips speechlessly and said,
“It’s good that you like it.”
Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that these
dishes were prepared for Huston. It wasn’t that the food was

Evelyn’s sincerity. Now that Mia had eaten it without saying a
word and had lost her appetite, everyone would be annoyed, including Huston.
Huston looked at the mess on the table and looked at the
woman sitting on the chair in surprise. Receiving his gaze, Mia
said pitifully, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t help but be greedy because it’s so delicious. When my parents were
still alive, they liked to cook for me. Now that I haven’t tasted it for so many years, it just so happens
that Miss Shelton wants to cook it and bring it here today. I’m really excited!”
Every time the atmosphere was subtle, Mia would always mention her parents. Every reason was very
delicate and convincing.
What Huston hated the most was how her parents had been when they were alive. Every time she
mentioned it, it would remind her of what had happened before, and the pain was unbearable.
Evelyn didn’t want to make things difficult for him, so she pushed the plate in front of him. “Eat more if
you like. There’s
still a lot.”
Mia seemed to have not expected her to suddenly say that. Mia was a little surprised, but after all, her
goal had been achieved. She felt comfortable and became happy on the
surface. “Huston, come and have a taste!”
When Huston looked at the dishes on the plate, he already felt that they were delicious.
In fact, he was a neat freak. Now that he had been picked out like this, he really had no appetite. But
when he thought that it
was Evelyn’s parents who made it, he picked up a knife and fork.
Evelyn blocked his hand and looked down at him. “I’ll ask Sadie to heat up some for you.”
As she spoke, she took away the plates on the table, went into the kitchen, and ordered Sadie to heat
up the dishes in the refrigerator.
It didn’t take long for it to heat up.

Sadie took it and put it away. In fact, one plate was enough for all the dishes, but they didn’t put them
together for fear that the awkward situation would happen again.
“Miss Shelton, don’t be angry. Just take it as a pity and give it to her!” Sadie whispered in her ear. In
fact, she was defending Evelyn against injustice. Miss Klein had gone too far. What she did just now
really scared others.
With a smile, Evelyn patted Sadie on the shoulder and
comforted her. “I’m fine.”
Out of the kitchen, Mia was still sitting in her chair, talking to
Huston Lincoln about the physical examination tomorrow.
When she saw Evelyn coming over, Mia’s eyes fell on the
dishes on the plate, and she didn’t say anything.
Looking at the steam rising from the plate, Huston felt a warmth in his heart. He picked up a piece and
put it in his mouth. The aroma was so fragrant that he couldn’t help chewing it a few more times.
He was used to the exquisite dishes outside, and he would miss the warm taste of home. However, he
was used to living alone, and no one had cooked for him for a long time.
