Chapter 141
“What? Charlie is going to live in the Woods family permanently?”
Downstairs, a few War Machine’s were sitting on the couch, gaming and chatting casually. When Gabriel beard that Charlie was staying with Nina, he couldn’t hade his envy and sust. That’s prat. I wish I could stay with you guys too.”
Henry, who usually couldn’t sit still for more than five minutes, was now sitting like a well–behaved child next to Gabriel, peeling fruits and nuts for him. When he heard Gabriel’s comment, he immediately broke into a goofy grin and said, “Gabriel, as long as you want, you can stay at the Woods Emily for as long as you like
“Really” Gabriel’s eyes ht up at the offer:
Henry nodded enthusiastically ans
“It’s fine” Gabriel nodded.
or spoke, he fed Gabriel a grape on a toothpick, grinning, Gabriel, is the grape sweet?”
Charbe, who was watching, felt his eyelid twatch.
Gabriel was a man’s man, and to have another man looking at him with such adoring eyes and feeding him fruit. It gave him goosebumps. If (Gabriel keps this up, he might start questioning his own sexual orientation.
“Huh?” Sensing Charlie’s gare. Gabriel tumed his head and, with a calm, expressionless face, stared back at him, “Charlie, what are you looking at me like that for?
Charbe raised an eyebrow at Gabriel, who was comfortably being waited on by Henry. He smirked and said, “Gabriel, dont; you have hands? You need someone to feed you fruit!”
He had never seen Gabnel act like this beforc
Gabriel pointed to Nina, who was intently playing her ganse but still managing to tilt her head to eat the snacks Humphrey fed her. With a deadpan expression, he said. “I could feed myself, but seeing Nina like that, I thought it was kind of amusing. Don’t you think?”
The War Machines had endured brutal training and experiments for most of their lives, suffering hardships most people couldn’t even imagine. After being freed from those tests, they were thrust into dangerous missions in lursh environments that only they could survive.
But just because they could endure it didn’t mean they enjoyed it. They had no choice, from the moment they were created, they were assigned
these missions
So, for the first time, to experience a life where everything was handed to them, where food was served, was strangely corrupting
Nina was one of them, and Gabriel, so much like Nina, had quickly fallen into the same pattern.
Gabriel didn’t care whether the person feeding him was a man or a woman–he just needed someone to serve him…
And Henry was all too happy to do so, doing it with a smile. Gabriel, naturally, had no reason to refuse.
Hana, munching away like a duck beard Charlie and Gabriel talking about her. She paused for a second, then immediately defended herself. “So what I don’t have hands right now, so what’s wrong with letting Humphrey feed me? Humphrey doesn’t mind. Right, Humphrey?”
Humphrey, grinning replied. “Yeah, Nina, take your time. I’m happy to help with feeding.”
Gabari, seeing this, decided to follow suit. He turned to Henry and asked, “Henry, you’re happy to do this, right?
Hrury, in his love–struck daze, nodded like an idiot, saying, “Of course, as long as Gabriel is happy, I’m happy. I’m just sitting around at home anyway. You guys have fun, Fen happy to do whatever
“Seer Gabriel shrugged at Charlar, then thought of something. “Charlie, are you jealous? Because no one is feeding you? There’s still an idle person
Gabriel’s poor shifted to Garg, who was doing nothing but stubbornly staying in the living room, refusing to leave.
“Yes,” Nina claimed in The great idea. Greg, you should feed Charlie.
Before Nina could foods Charlie and Gerg spoke in union, “No”
Nina, surprised by their firm rejection, pouted. Then, she turned to Gorg with a mock–serious expression and said, “Greg, you really don’t understanel hospitalay, do your Henry is ferding Gabriel fruit, and you can’t even feed Charlie? If Old Man finds out, he’ll say you have no

Greg looked at Nina, then at Henry with a sneer. He thought, ‘Is Henry being polite? This is clearly about him being infatuated with Gabriel!
If someone else tried to make him stand there like a servant, he’d rip them apart.
But Nina heme as clueless av CYCE, wouldn’t understand that. Greg simply crossed his arms and said bluntly, “I don’t have a habit of feeding men, but if Humprey steps aside, I can reluctantly feed you
Humphrey stared blankly at him and thought, Greg, don’t think I don’t know what you are thinking
You just want to feed Ninal
“You?” Nina looked Greg up and down with arvexpression of mild disgust. “Forget it. I don’t want you feeding me
“Why?” Greg’s eyes nearly popped out, gritting his teeth. “Is Humprey feeding you any better? You think if I feed you, you’ll be poisoned?”
Exactly. Nina nodded seriously, staring at Greg with no mercy. I’m really afraid you’ll poison me.”
Greg was speechless. “Damn. If I don’t poison this girl one day, I’ll owe her an apology!
Humphrey couldn’t help but laugh when he saw how furious Greg was, and turned to Nina, saying, “Nina, even though Greg’s got a big mouth. I don’t think he’d actually poison you”
ly, I know Greg wouldn’t poison me. I was just teasing him. Watching
“Really“” Nina turned back to Humphrey, blinking her eyes, and said. “Actually, I him get so worked up makes me so happy”
Humphrey was speechless and thought, You might as well not to explain.
Greg ground his teeth, glaring at Nina with fury. “Nina, you better watch out.”
Nina glanced at him and retorted. “Watch out for what? As if you could ever beat me
Greg ch
chuckded through his teeth. So just because you think you’re stronger, you get to do whatever you want,
huht
ng really does give you a free pass. Like right now–you’re so pissed you
Nina, bring completely straightforward, nodded and said, “Yep, being strong can’t even do anything about it”
was pure mockery.
Greg’s teeth ground together as he forced the words out, one by one, clearly on the edge of losing it “Ninal”
But the more Greg fumed, the more Nina la
laughed. She fell back on the sofa, clutching her stomach, unable to stop giggling.
Waching Greg practically explode with anger was just too amusing
Charlie and Gabriel exchanged glances when they saw Nina laughing so joyfully. They couldn’t help but notice how genuinely happy she seemed in the Woodi family.
At least now, it seemed like Nina wouldn’t be under constant surveillance from the higher–ups.
