Her Tears Are His Weakness novel Chapter 250

"You said you can cook," Leonardo said.

Samantha froze mid-bite. She silently cursed in her head. Her attention had been diverted, and she almost forgot about that.

She stubbornly retorted, "I never said I can cook. I just lied once, saying that lunch was made by me. And besides, I never actually told you that."

She doubled down.

Leonardo was silent for two seconds before nodding. "Right."

Just as she was about to relax, he spoke again. "The mistake was Simon's. He said you made the lunch, which made me misunderstand. I'll send him a message later telling him not to come tomorrow."

She was shocked as she never expected this to affect someone else. If Simon lost his job over this, she would feel so guilty she wouldn't be able to sleep.

She set down her cutlery and reached for Leonardo's hand, afraid he might actually send that message. "Please don't! It's not his fault!"

Leonardo looked at her.

She lowered her head and had no choice but to admit her mistake. "I know I was wrong. At the time, I just wanted to seem more sincere. That's why I said it. I'm sorry. You can punish me, or if it's really necessary, you can div—"

As Samantha was about to say the forbidden word, he interrupted her, "Alright. So what if you can't cook? It's not a crime. Just eat."

"Oh, okay."

Samantha was about to pick up her cutlery and eat, when Leonardo added, "So, the last time I tried making steak and messed up, it probably wasn't my cooking skills that were the problem, right?"

Samantha thought back to that disaster. Though it was still edible, it was clearly a mess.

"It was my fault!"

"Alright. Next time, I'll cook for you again."

"Okay."

Having confessed that she couldn't cook, she no longer felt pressured. The food tasted even better now.

Meanwhile, Leonardo sat beside her, frowning at his lunch box.
