Chapter 594
“Haha!” The usually reserved Yasmin could not help but laugh, covering her mouth.
Ryan had gone to great lengths for Carrie, but his usual tactics for charming women seemed to be useless on her. He had to
come up with alternatives, which often yielded amusing results.
Carrie had no intention of boasting about being fed by Ryan. But she noticed that Ryan looked tired holding onto the bowl and
spoon. Thus, she quietly leaned forward, opened her mouth, and took a bite.
When he saw Carrie obediently eating the food, Ryan chuckled softly. His eyes narrowed with affection.
“Cough... Cough...” Carrie ate too fast and coughed a few times.
“Take it slow, Carrie. Even if you’re hungry, you should eat slowly.” Ryan reached out to pat Carrie’s back. From the corner of his

“I’m trying to quit smoking, so I’m limiting myself to only half a pack a
day.”
“Why? Are you starting to focus on your health now that you’re 30 years old? Then, you should probably swap out alcohol for
detox
juices.”
“It’s because of Bella.” Justin thought of his crush, his eyes filled with warm ripples. “She dislikes it when I smoke. I know quitting
is hard, but I want to give it a try.”
“Tsk tsk... Back then, Bella disliked Rosalind, too. Why didn’t you kick
Rosalind out?” Ryan found his friend’s attempt to quit smoking for a woman particularly cheesy and could not help but tease him.
