Chapter 123
The current Bradley had no idea that Felix had already told him the truth so early on and that he
missed the chance to confront it.
Peeling garlic required technique, but fortunately, Felix was gifted and could remember
anything after seeing it once. He earnestly battled with the garlic Esther had entrusted to him, peeling it
until it was clean and beautiful.
“Mommy, I’ve peeled the garlic!” Felix held the peeled garlic in the kitchen and waited for Esther’s
praise.
Esther looked at the well-peeled garlic and leaned down to plant a kiss on Felix’s little face. ” You’re
amazing!”
Felix was elated by Esther’s praise and instantly asked, “Mommy, is there anything else I can do?”

Felix patted his chest and assured her. “Mommy, leave it to me!”
Felix went to seek assistance with the scallions while Esther continued to work methodically in the
kitchen. She peeled and diced the tomatoes, beat the eggs, cooked them in a pan until fluffy, added the
diced tomatoes, sautéing them until the tomato juice blended with the eggs, and finished with a pinch of
salt for seasoning.
The broccoli was cut into small pieces, soaked in lightly salted water for a few minutes, boiled in hot
water until cooked, and then mixed with minced garlic, salt, and sesame oil.

The celery was cut into uniform strips, and stir-fried with marinated beef. The resulting beef dish

peppers.
As for the blanched shrimps, it was a simple dish, but Esther added her own touch to it.
“Mommy, Mommy, here are the scallions!” Felix came holding the scallions, and Esther reached out to
embrace him, having him wash the scallions under the faucet. She then taught Felix how to chop the
scallions.
“Mommy, how do we use these scallions?”
“Sprinkle some on the tomato and scrambled eggs.”
“Okay!” Felix imitated Esther’s technique-he sprinkled a handful of chopped scallions onto the tomato
and scrambled eggs.
“Is it done?” asked Felix.
Esther replied, “Yes, our Felix’s fantastic. He can help Mommy with tasks now.”

“Then, little man, go tell Daddy to wash his hands and come eat.”
“Okay!” Felix ran to Bradley’s side like a whirlwind. “Daddy, wash your hands, and let’s eat!”
Bradley glanced at the time. It had been less than an hour, and Esther had already prepared the meal?
Esther placed the four dishes and one bowl of soup she had cooked on the marble table. The
mushroom and potato soup was still steaming, so she intentionally placed a basin of ice cubes under
the soup bowl to cool it down.
“Wow… Mommy is amazing!” Felix climbed onto his chair using his little arms and legs without needing
Bradley’s help.
“Time’s a bit tight today, but I’ll cook delicious food for you in the future.”
Felix exclaimed excitedly, “Mommy, I’ll help you!”
“Okay.
