Chapter 62

Luther quietly stayed by his grandmother's side, holding her hand

tightly. They did not have much time left

together and the thought that his grandmother would leave him made

him feel more and more uncomfortable.

Joyce put on her apron, went into the kitchen, and began to prepare

her ingredients like a real chef.

After about an hour or so.

The meal was ready.

She set the table and placed all kinds of different dishes on it. Baked

silver cod with lemon juice and

cheese, thick-cut steak, mushroom soup with French cream, sweet and

sour pork, stir-fried asparagus, miso tofu,

and stone-pot bibimbap.

Just when Grandma woke up from her nap, Luther helped her to the

dining room, where she sat down at the

head of the table.

The appealing aroma of the meal hit everyone's nose and gave the

house a homey feeling.

Stephanie looked over the dishes on the table one by one and

complimented, "Joyce, did you make all this

yourself?"

Joyce sat down next to Stephanie, "Grandma, it's been so long since

I've been here. I haven't cooked a meal

for you yet, so I prepared something really special today.’ After that, she

gave Stephanie a piece of fish, "Try it."

Luther sat down opposite Joyce, his eyes flashing slightly, a little

surprised. Dishes from all around the

whole world. He tried some and it tasted just good.

Stephanie ate them one by one, and was full of praise, "Joyce, I can't

believe you're even such a good chef.

Where did you learn these?"

Joyce raised a smile, "When I was much younger, I did not how to

cook, and I could burn my pan with just

fried eggs and fried rice. Then I met a friend with a really picky appetite.

Just to take care of him, I had to learn to

cook dishes from various countries ... so it was really not like I wanted

to learn.’

She said as she cut a steak for Stephanie.

"Oh yeah, well, it's nice and good, and the steak is delicious. Medium

rare, crispy on the outside and tender

on the inside, very classy!" Stephanie couldn't stop talking with joy.

When Luther heard Joyce's words, he paused in his hand that was

holding the food and put it down stiffly.

“I'm full. You guys take your time.’

Luther gently wiped his lips with a wet wipe and stood up.

"Dont you want more? You are wasting such a delicious dish.”

Stephanie sighed, and then had a laugh with

Joyce.

A look of joy and happiness.

Only, such happiness could not last long.

A beautiful illusion that would eventually be shattered.

After dinner and a shower, Joyce sat down on the living room couch to

relax.

She looked at her phone for a while, looked at it, and found herself out

of place.

She seemed to be sick. Her head was foggy and she felt cold.

When Luther came downstairs, he saw her lying on the sofa, her eyes

slightly closed, her cheeks scarlet

and unnaturally red.

He approached her and reached out and touched her forehead.

It's hot!

"You've got a fever.’ He frowned and hurriedly dialed Jamie, the family

doctor, and asked Jamie to come

over immediately.

Then, he picked Joyce up from the couch and carried her to the master

bedroom.

“Let go, I can still walk on my own." Joyce felt herself burning up but

knew enough to keep her distance and

said in a daze.

"Shut up.’ Luther couldn't allow her to refuse.
