Bertha Swift met Mary Scott's shiny eyes, and was momentarily blushing from such straightforward and sincere praise.
Seeing Bertha Swift's face turning red, Mary Scott unconsciously swallowed, making her beauty even more captivating, wondering why Adam Piers broke off the engagement with Bertha Swift.
If she were a man, she wouldn't let go even if it meant pestering her to death!
"Ahem!" David Locke pretended to cough, breaking Mary Scott's infatuated daze.
Mary Scott unhappily turned her head and glared at David Locke.
David Locke opened his mouth feeling blocked and frustrated, "Eat while it's hot; it'll affect the taste if it gets cold."
Mary Scott snapped out of it, quickly urging Bertha Swift to eat.
Bertha Swift felt the focus in the room finally shift away from her, relaxed her mind, and stopped overthinking, joining Mary Scott and the others in enjoying the food.
