Chapter 419 Where Is Your Sincerity
David and the Quirks were surprised at how horrible Cecilia was.
Stealing the fruits of someone else's labor was utterly despicable!
But how were they supposed to argue the point?

Alexander's eyes flickered slightly before he suddenly broke the tense atmosphere. "Medicinal meal? Was it for Uncle Eric's gastritis?"
Eric was in the throes of anger when he heard this. He paused, taken aback. He hadn't expected that Alexander, who didn't live with them, would know about his gastritis. This revelation surprised him once again. Others were also surprised as they looked at Alexander.
Eric nodded. "Indeed, the medicinal diet was excellent and highly effective. It not only cured my gastritis but also my wife's cold constitution and even Dylan's headaches. That's why I provided this young lady with accommodation as a token of gratitude."
"Dad, you're quite the joker. Can you really exchange sincerity for money?" Dylan immediately responded.
Alexander abruptly turned to Cecilia and asked, "Did you go through a lot of trouble to find the recipe for the medicinal diet?"
With tears welling in her eyes, Cecilia nodded, then shyly glanced at Alexander. After all, it was her first time seeing Alexander. She hadn't expected the family head, as described by Dylan, to be such a young and handsome man. His presence alone was enough to make her blush and feel a bit nervous.
Regrettably, such a man was already married, and to a wife who had such little regard for her image no less. The thought brought back the humiliation she had suffered that morning.
Immediately, Cecilia adopted an even more pitiful demeanor, instinctively aiming to draw the man's gaze and sympathy.
-1 just so happen to need it. Why don't you recite it now?" Alexander said.
Cecilia was stunned, rendered speechless in an instant.
With a nonchalant expression, Alexander remarked, "What's the matter? Can't recite it? Even if you can only recite a page or a part of one, it's better than nothing. Isn't it something you painstakingly collected?" Cecilia's face started to show signs of panic.
"Perhaps you could tell me which book you got it from or from which old traditional medicine practitioner you learned this?" Alexander continued his ruthless onslaught.
Upon hearing this, Isabella and the other Quirks understood Alexander's intentions.
Isabella leaned into Alexander's embrace, her heart brimming with excitement and her spirit exuberant with joy.

A smirk tugged at the corner of Alexander's mouth. Without much concern for appearances, he casually swept his wife into his arms.
As he held his wife close, it was as if he had drawn in a comforting aura, his tone becoming somewhat languid.
"What's the matter? Can't find the words? Seems like you didn't put that much effort into it, after all," Alexander said nonchalantly.
"No. I... I... Cecilia regained her composure, attempting to make an excuse.
"Can't even recall a single ingredient, huh? You have no memory of them at all? Seriously... Where's your. sincerity?" Isabella said, her voice laced with sarcasm.
Immediately. Dylan tugged at Cecilia, puzzled as to why she remained silent.
Hahaha, it's hilarious that Dylan seems clueless. I initially thought they were both in on it. It seems that in the early days, Dylan wasn't so confused and reckless. Could it be that he lost his mind when his sister turned into his lover? I wonder, will he still be so confident and self-assured after he learns the truth later?"
Meanwhile, Eric thought that perhaps Cecilia had simply chosen it randomly, without really putting any effort into remembering it. He dismissed it as fanciful rhetoric from the past. After all, he already knew that this girl had ulterior motives, so nothing else mattered anymore.
Just as he was about to end this topic, Janice suddenly started to slowly recite the names of medicinal herbs behind him.
Stunned, Eric turned to look at Janice.
With a blank expression, Janice recited the complete recipes for the three medicinal meals, as if they were. incredibly familiar to her.
The entire place fell silent.
Janice stared blankly at her own father.
Eric, always the astute one, seemed to have an inkling of what was happening. His voice almost trembled as he said, "Janice, how did you come to know this? Speak, I'm listening."
Perhaps Janice had also become aware of certain possibilities, which would explain why she had seemed so lost in thought earlier.
"I... I also collected medicinal recipes during that period, specifically these three. I had prepared them to give to you, but then... the next day, Cecilia gave you the same recipes, So, I didn't bring them out again. Janice's voice was somewhat shaky.
*D*mn, seriously? You could recite it by heart, but she couldn't and was clearly flustered. Doesn't that just prove it? She plagiarized your recipe and stole your work, didn't she?" Eula exclaimed in astonishment.
