Chapter 417 Fighting Over a Bowl of Noodles
Brian glanced at his bowl, which was more than half-filled with noodles. Then, he glanced at Silas’s bowl, which had a little less than half left. No matter how he looked at it, there was no way he could finish his food before Silas. Thus, he stood up and brought his bowl with him into the kitchen after brief consideration.

Silas immediately frowned in response. Picking up his bowl, he followed Brian into the kitchen. This was his battlefield. Therefore, he walked into the kitchen, picked up the lid of the pot, and covered the pot with it. At the same time, Brian reached his chopsticks into the pot. He wasn’t happy about being able to see the noodles but not being able to eat them. Thus, they were in a stalemate-one wanted to snatch and one wasn’t giving in. “What are you playing at? Have you finished your food?” “Why do you care? This isn’t enough for me to eat.” In the dining room, both mother and son widened their eyes in surprise. This display had left them speechless. Camila had wanted to stop them from squabbling. However, their fight had escalated instead. Why are two men in their thirties standing in the kitchen on the verge of exchanging blows over a bowl of noodles? Who would believe me if I told them about this? Where is the cold and ruthless president? Where is the warm and caring man? South had a worried look on his face too. “Mommy, you should make more next time.” Then, Camila answered tiredly, “Sure.” After that, he frowned. Glancing worriedly in the direction of the kitchen, he said, “Why don’t you go and stop them?”
She propped her face in her hands, looking dejected. “How do I stop them? Who am I supposed to give that bowl of noodles to?”
Mulling over it for a moment, he suggested, “Why don’t you give them half each?”
“Hmm, that’s a good idea,” Camila said as she stood up. When she arrived at the kitchen door, the two men suddenly became open to discussion. Silas said, “Do you want to go first?”
Then, Brian replied, “It’s okay, you first.”
Camila stared at them wordlessly. “I’ll serve you both.” Walking over, she took the lid off the pot and filled up their bowls. A small amount was leftover. Seeing that, she smiled gently. “Eat slowly. If it isn’t enough, there’s still some left.”
Upon hearing that, both Silas and Brian were rendered speechless. After dinner, Camila performed acupuncture on Brian as usual. This was the quietest hoth hrothers had been all night.
For that reason, Brian had the leisure of asking about the incident at the bar today. “Who came to pick a fight with you today?” The corners of her mouth twitched slightly. “Who told you that somebody came to pick a fight with me?” Suspicious, Brian asked, “Huh? Was that not the case?” She snorted. “Of course, not.” On the other hand, Silas asked, “Did you pick a fight with somebody?” Lifting her gaze, she met his gaze and nodded. “That’s right. I picked a fight with somebody. Do you still remember Melanie Hopper? She slandered Landon behind his back and said a lot of offensive things about him. Not only that, but she also claimed that she had the highest chance of seducing you. Anyway, I find her very irritating and slapped her more than 20 times in a fit of rage!” Silas smiled in response. “Serves her right.” Brian smiled too. “Joe called me and told me that it was you. Moreover, he ordered his men to suppress the news. Nobody will dare to post this up online nor make it viral.” Camila glanced at Brian in confusion. “Who is Joe?”
Then, Brian smiled warmly. “Do you remember hitching a ride on the overpass? I was there too.”
South immediately raised his hand and exclaimed, “I remember! I was there too.” Suddenly, Camila recalled the incident. “Yeah, I remember now. So, that man is Joe?” Brian affirmed, “The bar belongs to him. Coincidentally, he recognized you that night. After the incident, he gave me a call!” Following that call, she threw a tantrum, asking why he didn’t step up to help. As a result, Joe claimed that there was no need for him to help. Camila was one-sidedly exacting her revenge on the other party. Besides, there were security guards around
too!
However, Silas frowned. He was unaware of the incident they were talking about. This feeling of alienation and being excluded was making him very uncomfortable. “When did you hitch a ride in somebody’s car?” Camila looked at him and coyly replied, “Before I became your girlfriend.” Her reply left him speechless.
