Chapter 148 Emotional Entanglements

Fox started chopping onions, and tears began to flow uncontrollably from his eyes, making him feel helpless. Meanwhile, on the other side, Faye wasn't in a hurry to handle the ingredients. Instead, she was chatting with Jennifer. From time to time, their laughter could be heard, and it made Fox feel joyful. Soon, the onions were chopped, and Faye walked into the kitchen, ready to take charge. The kitchen was her battlefield. She ushered Fox out, telling him to go and accompany Jennifer. Reluctantly, Fox left the kitchen. Sitting in the living room, Fox found himself sitting close to Jennifer. He could feel the warmth of her leg against his. "Let me make you a 'Special Jennifer Drink,'" Fox suggested, feeling a bit awkward as he tried to find something to do. He wanted to make a special drink for Jennifer to make her happy. Jennifer pulled him back, making him stay seated, and leaned closer to him. She even reached out to wrap her arm around his, pressing herself against him.
