Chapter 183 An Outsider

• Nonetheless, Talia didn't proceed to call Owen because she didn't want to give him the satisfaction of making the first move to call him, knowing it was exactly what he was waiting for. As she continued to dwell on it, she grew so angry that she decided to just skip lunch. Therefore, when she arrived home at night, she complained about her hunger until Madam Nash served her some soup to help her until it was time for dinner. "Why are you starving? Didn't you take your lunch?"
• As Talia stuffily sipped her soup, she ambiguously replied with an affirmative hum while wondering what Owen was up to. Nonetheless, she was quickly discouraged by that because she didn't think she was able to see through her own father.
• In the meantime, Liquorice caught the aroma of the soup and started to rub Talia's feet with its body, somehow lifting her spirit a little. "Nope. This is not for you. Madam Nash is making some tasty meat for you, isn't she? So, why are you eyeing my soup now? You're going to get your food soon, so go and play somewhere else first."
