Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1166

When Corey noticed that Noah, Howard, and even Elliot were all eagerly helping their partners with shelling seafood, he quickly joined them as he did not want to be left out.

Except for Lionel, all the men at the table were dutifully serving their partners.

Jacintha pursed her lips and nudged Lionel with her elbow, silently urging him to be more proactive.

However, Lionel was oblivious, too engrossed in serving himself.

Jacintha secretly cursed at him for being unromantic.

Then, she softly reminded him, "Why don't you help me too?"

"You want to eat crab?"

Jacintha suppressed her irritation and nodded with a forced smile.

Lionel scanned the table full of seafood and skillfully dismantled a crab, taking out a succulent piece of crab roe.

He offered it to Jacintha, asking, "Would you like some?"

Jacintha was pleasantly surprised by his gesture and replied sweetly, "Thank you, Lionel!"

She licked her lips in anticipation, ready to devour the crab roe he offered.

However, just as she was about to bite into it, Lionel withdrew his hand and popped the delicacy into his own mouth.

He teased, "If you want some, you can do it yourself. These couples are feeding each other because they're married or engaged. We're not the same. No need to imitate them."

Jacintha's eyes welled up with tears. Not only did she miss out on the crab roe, but she also received a lecture.

She felt utterly aggrieved and argued, "How are we not the same? Everyone's having a good time, with everyone paired up. We can pretend to be a couple too!"

Lionel shook his head and replied, "We're not a couple. I'm just taking care of you. If you want, call me 'Dad', and then I'll peel shrimp for you, my daughter."
