Chapter 1568

“Zachary, I’m back!” Sophia shouted as soon as she walked in through the door.

Both Jeremy and Bryan were watching the television in the living room. No one looked over at Sophia

when they heard her coming back.

“Okay,” said Jeremy lightly.

Sophia was used to his indifference. She walked to the sofa with the groceries she bought from the

supermarket.

“Zachary, look! I passed by the supermarket on my way back and bought a lot of fresh ingredients. I’m

going to make you some beef stew I just learned today!”

said Sophia while shaking the plastic bag in her hand.

Jeremy raised his eyes and looked at her passively. “You’ve been busy all day, so you don’t have to

cook today.”

Sophia shook her head and insisted, “I’m not tired! Zachary, I found that I actually like cooking. I get a

sense of achievement every time I see you and Benjamin eating the food I cooked.”

Jeremy said nothing. He was not going to offer up any more opinions if she insisted on cooking. He

would just let her do it. It did not really matter to him whether Sophia cooked or not since he did not

have any appetite anyway.

Bryan, on the other hand, muttered innocently, “We eat the food you cook, not because it’s yummy but

because we have no choice. If we don’t eat it, we’ll end up starving.”

Sophia’s face stiffened before she forced an awkward smile. “Benjamin, you shouldn’t speak so bluntly!

You won’t be able to get a wife when you grow up if you speak like this.”

“Of course I wouldn’t talk like that to my future wife. I’m not stupid!”

Sophia was speechless. ‘So he’s deliberately saying that to get me all riled up.

D*mn it! He’s definitely Corinne’s son, alright. Ooh, how I hate her with every fiber of my being.’ Sophia

walked over and picked him up by the ear. “How dare you talk to me like that? Where are your

manners? I slave over the stove to cook for you every day, yet you find the food disgusting? What have

I done to deserve such an ungrateful little boy like you?!” 1 “Let me go!” yelled Bryan in pain.

“I’ll let you go if you apologize to me now!”

Bryan endured the pain and glared at her stubbornly. “I’d rather get a spanking than to apologize to

you! Hmph!”

Sophia really wanted to spank him, but she did not want to do it in front of Jeremy. “Why you little brat!”

“What are you doing? Let him go this instant!” Jeremy suddenly shouted coldly.

Sophia was stunned for a moment. She then let go of Bryan and looked at Jeremy in shock. “Jeremy,

I’m just disciplining this child! You’ve also seen how he’s becoming ruder to me! He doesn’t treat me

with respect at all! And I’ll be d*mned if I’m going to let him continue to treat me like that.”

Jeremy pulled Bryan over to check his swollen ears. He then glared at Sophia angrily. “You shouldn’t

resort to violence when disciplining a kid! How can you be so cruel? He’s only three years old, for god’s

sake!”

“I didn’t use any force just now. I just wanted to scare him!” said Sophia innocently. “Zachary, you

shouldn’t believe everything this kid says. He’s just trying to make you take his side and drive a wedge

between us! I think we really need to discipline him, or he won’t even listen to you in the future!

Bryan nestled in Jeremy’s arms pitifully. “Who says I won’t listen to Daddy? I’ll do anything he says!”

Sophia looked at him. “Why don’t you listen to Mommy, then?”
