That night was bound to be a sleepless night.
The sound of preparation of a feast came from downstairs from time to time. There were chefs and kitchen assistants, filling the house with footsteps and sounds of pots clanking.
Naomi was unable to sleep at all.
She stared dryly at the wall. After more than two hours, it was estimated that the feast was ready to be cooked as things had quieted down.
Naomi took advantage of the opportunity to close her eyes in a daze.
However, she should only take a nap for an hour at most before being woken up by a loud bang from outside.
âI said I donât want to eat! Get out, get out!â
It was a familiar voice from that annoying Culver who needed to be beaten up!
Naomi was really impressed that he did not want to eat the dishes on the dinner table.
Naomi covered her head with a pillow. She did not want to be bothered by it at first, but in the next second, she heard Loraineâs voice.
She was shouting, âYoung Master Culver!â
There was a little panic in her voice. Naomi subconsciously thought that Culver had hit someone, therefore she got up and went out.
What a joke! How dare he bully a woman in front of the righteous Naomi?
Was he looking for death?
Naomi dashed out in her pajamas. The corridor was in a complete mess.
All the precious dishes were scattered all over the floor.
They were all amazing delicacies from all kinds of places!
What a waste!
Naomiâs heart ached as she walked past the scattered dishes. She saw Culverâs weak face and Loraine shouting anxiously beside him.
âYoung Master Culver, you canât go on like this. Iâll call a doctor right now!â
When Naomi took a look, it seemed that something had really happened.
Was he really going to starve himself to death?
That was crazy!
âDonât!â Even during such a time, Culver was still being stubborn. He did not allow the doctor to take a look at him, nor did he want the other members of the Olsen family to find out either.
Naomi was exasperated. Looking at the situation, if she did not cook for him, he would starve himself to death. By then, wouldnât she become the public enemy of the Olsen family?
Naomi closed her eyes and said, âLoraine, donât worry. You should clean up this place first. Iâll cook a bowl of noodles for him. Heâll be fine after eating it!â
Loraineâs face was amused.
âMiss George, Young Master Culver has never liked noodles since he was a child.â
Naomiâs face was full of contempt as she said, âNoodles are the fastest dish to cook now. Do you want to watch him starve to death? Besides, the ingredients are all on the floor. Do you think thereâs anything else in the fridge?â
âWell⦠why donât I call the chef?â
Naomi looked at the mess on the floor and said, âYouâve already brought the greatest chef here. Who else can you look for?â
Loraine instantly became quiet.
She had no idea who else she could call for.
In the next second, she cried again, âItâs all because Iâm useless. If it werenât for my lack of abilities, Young Master Culver would not have ended up like this!â
Naomi was dumbfounded.
âForget it, itâs alright. Youâd better clean up. Iâll make something for him to eat.â
Loraine still did not believe her, but when she looked again, she found that Culver was not stopping Naomi. It was indeed strange. Therefore, she made sure that Culver was okay and began to clean up.
After a while, when she saw that Culverâs mood had improved a little, she opened her mouth and spoke carefully.
âYoung Master Culver, I know that this is all my fault. Iâm not good at cooking. Donât be angry. Iâll find someone to cook for you immediately. It will be the best this time!â
Culver frowned and said, âGo and prepare the cutlery for me.â
âAlright!â Loraine thought that Culver had agreed to allow her to look for a chef. She smiled happily and said, âIâll contact a chef immediately.â
âStop!â Culver held her back. âWho asked you to call for a chef? I want to go down and eat noodles.â
Loraine was surprised.
She suspected that she had heard him wrongly. Did Culver just say that he wanted to eat noodles?
â¦
In the kitchen, Naomi searched the refrigerator for a long time. Finally, she found some carrots, chicken and a package of noodles, which were caught between the gap of the refrigerator.
She had bought the noodles the night before but she had not gotten to use them.
After Naomi made a simple bowl of chicken soup noodles, she placed the bowl on the table.
Coincidentally, Culver had come down, therefore Naomi greeted him casually.
âThe food is ready. Hurry up and eat it! If not, you will starve to death!â
Loraineâs face was shocked. When had Culver ever been treated like that? Naomi could not just behave boldly and recklessly just because Culver liked her, right?
However, Culver did not get angry at all. Just as she thought about it, Culver had already walked over and picked up his cutlery.
Loraine glanced at the bowl of noodles, which only had a few carrots floating on top of the soup. There was some shredded chicken in it.
The color looked good, but it did not look appetizing at first glance.
Loraineâs heart ached again. Just as she was about to say that Culver would not eat them, the next second, she heard slurping sounds from Culver.
Loraine was confused.
Culver ate as quickly as a tornado. However, he was still able to retain a bit of elegance.
In just three minutes, the bowl of noodles had been emptied.
Loraine immediately took out a cup of mouthwash and a towel that she had prepared beforehand, saying, âYoung Master Culver, please rinse your mouth. Iâll help you clean up.â
Culver reached out and pushed her towel away. He then picked up the bowl of noodles in front of him and drank the soup.
Loraineâs eyes were about to pop out as she quickly said, âYoung Master Culver, thereâs too much starch in the soup. Itâs too fattening. Itâs not healthy!â
Naomi could not bear to listen any longer so she said to Loraine, âLoraine, donât worry about him. He has already missed three meals. How can there be any fats left in his body?â
Then, Loraine cried again.
âYoung Master Culver, you had to suffer so much!â
The next second, Culver opened his mouth happily.
âOne more bowl!â
Loraine was rendered speechless.
Naomi shook her head and said, âThereâs no more!â
Culver frowned again and said, âThis is my house. I canât even eat another bowl of noodles?â
âThereâs really none left. We donât have any more ingredients for it!â
Loraine hurriedly said, âIâll go out and buy them.â
She was anxious to please Culver.
Naomi looked at the clock and said, âItâs early in the morning. Where are you going to buy the ingredients? Besides, he has starved himself for almost the entire day, so itâs not good for him to eat too much.â
Loraine nodded immediately as she said in reply, âYes, Miss George is right. If you like to eat these noodles, Iâll make them for you tomorrow morning, Young Master Culver.â
Without saying a word, Culver got up and went upstairs.
Naomi rolled her eyes and said, âWhat a rude guy! He doesnât even have the courtesy to say thank you.â
âThank you, thank you.â The voice of Loraine came, âMiss George, I thank the heavens that you are here. I did not expect that Young Master Culverâs appetite to have changed. Iâll prepare more noodles in the future.â
Naomi yawned and said, âActually, I think you all spoil him too much. If heâs hungry, heâll eat, wonât he?â
âThereâs something you donât know!â Loraine sighed and said, âYoung Master Culver has had anorexia since he was a child. For a few years, he refused to eat anything, and he was as thin as a stick. Later, we thought of many ways then only did his condition become slightly better. Even so, there were still many things that he did not want to try!â
In disbelief, Naomi asked, âHe has anorexia? Are you sure ?â
She clearly saw that he could not stop eating at all.
âOf course Iâm not wrong. Young Master Culver is a child who has lived a hard life.â
Naomi was taken aback. She thought to herself, âIf he had a hard life, then there will be no one else in this world who has suffered.â
