I Only Want You novel Chapter 299

James was still minding because of the attitude of Lydia just now. Now when he heard this, he also snorted and said, "I don't care!"

Humph! Even if the chairman came, it couldn't relieve his depression caused by Lydia's neglect.

Lydia pouted at James and then said to Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, Jimmy is getting more and more annoying! It's really hard for you to live together with him every day. Come on, come in, we'll have dinner soon."

Elizabeth looked at the dark-faced James, lowered her head and snickered. Then she looked up and said to Lydia, "Okay, mom."

James changed his shoes and said to Elizabeth discontentedly, "Honey, figure out who is you..."

Before he could finish his words, he heard a female voice from the kitchen—

"Is Jimmy back?"

The soft female voice made James stop changing his shoes to look at the kitchen incredulously.

At the door of the kitchen, the woman was wearing a white embroidered long skirt of the bohemian style with her chestnut-colored long curly hair down. At this time, she was wearing an apron and holding a plate of freshly fried vegetables in her hand.

"The dishes tonight are all made by Zena!" Lydia smiled and said, "I didn't know she could cook." James did not say anything. He just looked at the door of the kitchen with a gloomy look, and his thin lips unconsciously tightened.

"Jimmy!" Zena smiled and called James as a greeting. Then she put the dishes on the table and came to James. "You just came back at the right time. I just finished the dishes."

Elizabeth looked at Zena who was standing in front of James. She only felt that Zena was beautiful and elegant, but not so arrogant. Instead, she had a kind of close sister-to-be affinity.

Zena saw that James was still standing there, and even she said a lot of words, he didn't pay attention to her. She pursed her lips and tried to say, "Jimmy?"

James frowned. "You're back?" A few faint words, without any emotion.

"It's rare for Zena to come back. What's wrong with you?" Lydia complained to James, and then said with a smile, "Well, don't stand here. Let's go for dinner. I'm hungry."

Hearing this, Zena also smiled and reached out to pull James. "Yes, let's eat. You must be hungry."

As soon as Zena's hand touched James's arm, he suddenly raised his arm and broke away from her hand. At the same time, he took a step back, as if she was something dirty.

"Ah..." Zena did not expect James to react like this. She paused for a moment, raised her hand that had just reached out to pull James's to tidy her hair, and even her smile became somewhat unnatural. Elizabeth looked at Zena in confusion, and then looked at James. She didn't know why he suddenly became so rude. When she was about to speak, Lydia said, "Kid, what's wrong with you? Come on, let's have dinner."

Although she didn't know why James would be so strange today, Zena had made so many dishes at least. Moreover, Lydia and John had said that, so she could only try her best to persuade James.

She smiled and whispered to him, "Why don't we... eat here?" Looking at James's increasingly gloomy face, she felt even stress. "I... I'm hungry. I'm really hungry. I didn't eat much at noon today."

At last, they were sitting at a dinner table. Elizabeth received Lydia's praise for her. She smiled and went to see James. Seeing that he refused to eat, she thought for a while and picked up a piece of braised pork in his bowl.

Zena sat in front of James while next to Lydia. Seeing this scene, she was stunned. Then she looked at Lydia and asked, "Auntie, this is...?"

In fact, as early as the moment she saw James, she noticed the girl beside him. At that time, she did not take it seriously. Seeing that she was carrying things in her hand, she only thought that she was here to visit John and Lydia. Later, because of James's reaction, she did not ask. But now, seeing that she helped James with the food, and that James just agreed to stay because of her, Zena could not help asking.

Lydia was eating happily, so she didn't think that it was inappropriate for Zena to ask about Elizabeth at that time. She swallowed the food in her mouth. "Oh, you mean Elizabeth? Didn't Jimmy tell you?"

"No." Zena shook her head gently.

Lydia looked at James, who was sitting on the opposite side, staring at the bowl. "I thought that Jimmy had told you about it. Well, you're so busy all day, and he doesn't have much time... Hey, Elizabeth, the one beside me, you can call her Zena. She grew up with Jimmy and Isaac. She was talented at everything."

Elizabeth obediently called her "Zena". Lydia smiled and continued to introduce. "As for Elizabeth, she is..."
