Chapter 274 Kidney Supplementation
At noon, they indulged in a feast of the whole lamb, showcasing 108 different ways of preparing it.
From the lamb’s head to its hooves, every part was transformed into several dishes. It included a succulent whole roasted lamb, both lavish and delicious.
Everyone praised Charles‘ thoughtful arrangements.
charles was in a good mood. “Winter calls for lamb, the ultimate comfort food. By the way, we have natural hot spring pool here in the villa. Since there’s nothing scheduled for the afternoon, the ladies can relax and soak in the hot springs. It’s perfect for winter.”
Someone teased, “This arrangement is just too perfect. No wonder everyone says Charles is a friend to women.”
Everyone raised their glasses in a toast to Charles, the atmosphere was jovial and harmonious
William took a sip of wine, then leaned in toward Emelie “This afternoon, you can join them for the hot springs. We have some matters to discuss.”
Emelie understood immediately.
Of course, she thought to herself, why would William waste two days coming here for leisure without any purpose? Even if he truly wanted a vacation, he would spend it with his genuine friends like Jayden and Ellas. This meeting with Charles and Bryan must be business–related,
She nodded. “Alright.”
William’s gaze shifted to the soup in her bowl, and he raised an eyebrow. “Is it delicious? I see you’ve filled your bowl for the second time.”
Emelle delta pang of embarrassment at being called out for eating too much.
She cleared her throat. She quietly recommended, “It’s quite tasty. Mr. Middleton, you should try it. I’m not sure which part of the lamb it is though?”
The soup contained ingredients like white radish, tomatoes, and fresh coriander cilantro besides the lamb of unknown origin. Ginger and pepper were added for warmth.
Emelie tried to identify the pieces of meat in the soup when William suddenly said, “It’s lamb tail”
Emelle misheard it as a similar–sounding word and choked, caught off guard. “What?“”
“Lamb tail,” William said deliberately. There was a mischievous glint in his eyes. “It’s good for your kidney and vitality. Men are too embarrassed to eat it. You’re the only woman at the table, and you’re slurping it up without end, one bowl after another.”
Lamb tails were good for the kidneys.
Emelie suddenly had a strange feeling about the previously enjoyable soup, making it difficult to swallow now.
She glanced nervously at the others at the table, relieved to find that no one was paying attention to her. Then, she hesitated and looked at William.
She actually wanted to ask if she could call a maid to pour it out for her. However, William seemed to misunderstand her hesitant look and smirked lightly. “You served yourself, and you should finish your food. I don’t need this stuff.”
Emelle didn’t want him to eat it for her. What kind of relationship did they have that would make her think of letting him eat her “leftovers“? William’s tendency to think in that direction was quite abstract
After finishing the meal, Emelie went back to her room for anap. She had been on guard last night. She was afraid that Willaim might suddenly barge in, so she hadn’t slept deeply Combined with the natural drowsiness of winter and the satisfaction of a full stomach, she just wanted to snuggle under the covers.
She knew William wouldn’t return to the room in the afternoon, so she slept soundly. She woke up at 4:30 pm.
She remembered the natural hot spring that Charles mentioned at the lunch table. Since she had nothing else to do, she asked a maid to take her there. The entire hot spring area was quite large, with several pools of different sizes and effects.
There were pools for warming the womb, detoxifying, and rejuvenating the skin.
When Emelle arrived, most of the pools were already occupied. The women seemed to know each other, chatting in groups of two or three.
No one greeted Emelie and she didn’t know any of them, so she found a small pool with no one in it. She sat on the edge and soaked her legs.
She took out her phone to send a message to Eliana, asking about her mother’s condition Eliana replied with a voice message.
She sounded cheerful as she said, “Mom can speak now. She even told me that she wanted chicken soup. I told her that I’ll cook it for her when she’s able to eat, and she asked for there to be more pepper in her soup.”
Emelie chuckled. “Mom has always loved pepper.”
“Yeah, the doctor said that Mom’s condition is all normal. She can be transferred to a regular ward tomorrow,”
Emelie kicked her legs in the hot spring pool she felt happy about her mother’s recovery. But when she remembered the contract that Willum had given her, her smile gradually
faded.
She couldn’t send the contract to Ashley, as she couldn’t sign it. But William wanted her to sign it tonight..
She looked down at the surface of the pool, lost in thought
Suddenly, there was a ripple in the pool someone had entered the water from the other side.
Emelle instinctively looked u
