Chapter 542 Beautiful Woman (Part One)
Daisy enjoyed her weekend a lot. She had tons of spare time, and she could finally spend more time
with her family members. She would always take some time and cook something delicious for her
beloved family. Her home-made food was both hearty and tasty, and today was no exception. As soon
as Edward stepped into the house, he smelled something amazing in the air. It boosted his appetite in
no time.
"Hey you, we were just about to call you! Where have you been? We were looking for your everywhere!
Come on then! Time for dinner! Where is Lukie?" Cynthia called out to Edward the moment she spotted
him. She smiled warmly at him as she earnestly pushed him towards the dining table.
"Maybe still outside, parking the car? He''ll be here in no time." Edward curled his lips. Lukie? What a
childish nickname his mother had used for Luke! Edward found it absurd to call a tall and handsome
young man like Luke such silly name! However, he did understand that his mother only used this name
to show how much she cared about Luke. So he didn''t really tell her how he felt. That would be cruel.
Instead, he onlyughed hard in his heart.
"Daddy, why were you out ying again?" Justin really loved to stick around Edward as his father was
seldom home. Recently Edward spent more time at home, therefore Justin took great advantage of the
situation and spent as much time as possible with his father. It was a rare treat for Justin to have
Edward''spanionship as usually he was always busy at work. Justin cherished every second spent
with his father.
Edwardughed and said, "I had some work to finish up. Nowe on, let''s wash our hands and get
some dinner." Edward bent down and cradled Justin in his strong arms. Thanks to all the rehab and
rest that he had, Edward was now fit enough to lift his son with little effort. The reason he recovered so
soon from his injury was because of the medicine Tom created himself, and used on Edward. The
meds had an immediate effect and worked like a charm. Edward took Tom''s effort for granted and did
not show much appreciation, which distressed Dr. Qin a little bit. However, such distress was easily
alleviated by a big fat check from Edward. Tom epted his due reward with the most splendid smile,
for who didn''t love money? It was obvious that his assets were not even one tenth of Edward''s!
"You guys need to hurry up! Otherwise we''ll eat everything before you get here!" Cynthia smiled at
them and lovingly shook her head. Then she turned around and went to help Daisy. She was always
amused at her son and grandson! As to her daughter-inw, she could not like her more. Daisy was
such a wonderful woman. She was able to manage the house well, cook delicious food and remain
presentable at all times. Compared to her own cooking skills, Daisy''s home-made dishes were truly
remarkable. Cynthia was ashamed to admit that her cooking was not at all up to par.
The ambience at the table was very cozy. Surrounded by his beloved family, Edward felt his heart
warming. He knew it was not only because of thepanionship of family members, but also because
the feeling they gave him was truly weing. He could not ask for a happier home. He had always
longed for such sentiment and hoped that it wouldst forever. Now he was living his dream and was
able to feel closeness and warmth with all his heart.
"Grandpa, don''t you think that mom''s cooking is amazing?" Justin kept babbling at the table. He
constantly pestered everyone about how good the dishes made by his mom tasted. Young and proud
as he was, he had to tell the whole world what an awesome mom he had. Even with his mouth full of
food, he kept boasting about his mother''s cooking skills.
"Justin..." Daisy sharply called out his name. Then she realised she was too loud at the table. She
curled her lips in subtle distress and quickly looked away. She felt embarrassed.
"Of course! It tastes really good. Much better than your grandma''s cooking." Jonathan took his
grandson''s question seriously. He was about to heap more food onto his te. However, on hearing
the question, he paused and answered Justin sincerely. It was the first time he said something bad
about his wife in front of others. It seemed to everyone that he really had a high opinion of Daisy''s
extraordinary cooking.
"Shut up! Let''s not talk about my cooking. I know I''m a bad cook, so you don''t have to keep harping on
it." Cynthiaughed and shrugged her shoulders. She was not bothered at all that her dear husband
joked about her cooking skills. She did not mind that he aired his opinion in public that Daisy''s cooking
was far better than hers. She knew she was not a gifted cook to start with. For something she was not
good at, she at least had the guts to admit it.
"Grandma, you can''t lose to my mom in cooking! You need topete with mom for the title of Best
Chef Ever! You should practice cooking. How about starting tomorrow?" Justin''s words caught
Edward''s attention immediately. He turned in his direction and stared at him with a strange look. What
was this kiddo on about? Was he this desperate for nice food? Didn''t he have the slightest idea that his
grandmother really sucked at cooking? The food she cooked was certainly not poisonous but it would

result in gastric distress for anyone eating it!
"Well, regarding this issue, I personally think that I should stay away from it!" Cynthia hesitated for a
second and said with a timid voice. She knew she was not a talented cook. Sometimes she found her
own cooking skills unbelievably awful. She had definitely tried hard and copied from others'' recipes
step by step, however, things always turned out disappointing. Her food literally tasted like poison.
Eventually Cynthia gave up and refused to give it another try.
"Mom, your decision is super wise and I support you one hundred percent!" Edward could not
encourage his mother''s further attempts on more food creation. Before Justin could say anything,
Edward jumped into the conversation and tabled the topic. He was afraid that if he didn''t speak out loud
first, Justin might even convince Cynthia into more daring endeavors. After all, he hated to be the
guinea pig for her creations!
"I agree with Edward fully." Jonathan nodded his head sternly to show his support as well. It was quite
rare for him to agree with his son. However, as he had been "poisoned" by his wife numerous times
before, he knew what was the right thing to say now to avoid future tragedy. Just like Edward, Jonathan
didn''t want to be the poor victim of some food poisoning crime.
"Was my cooking this scary? Howe both of you are acting like cowards?" Justin was confused at
their reaction. Their universal decision on forbidding grandma making more dishes made him wonder
whether he should insist on his original proposal. It seemed that he needed to give it a second thought.
As a kid who loved delicious food, nothing was more important to him than his own health. As long as
he had a healthy body, he was able to enjoy the pleasure of devouring gourmet delicacies.
"Just eat your food! Stop talking already!" Edward gave him a warning look and then quickly ced a
big chunk of meat onto his te to make sure he didn''t talk anymore and ruin their n. Justin with his
big mouth might cause them big troubleter on.
