Aurora Sterling found herself wanting to laugh as she listened to Ms. Sutton ramble on about how Dean's meat was so much better, how the meat from this place was terrible, and how she must have been scammed.
But just as a smile began to form on her lips, a piercing chill washed over her.
She turned to see Damien Valerius standing by the dining table, his hands in his pockets and a cold expression on his face.
She knew he must be angry again because she was eating so little and refusing to touch the meat.
"It's not my fault! You heard Ms. Sutton—the meat from this place isn't as good as Dean's. That's why I thought it tasted strange and didn't eat much!" Aurora Sterling quickly said, trying to smooth things over.
'Of course, she knew perfectly well that since she was pregnant, she had to force herself to eat for the baby's sake, even if she had no appetite. Otherwise, the baby could suffer from malnutrition.'
