'What?' Chloe was puzzled. 'What's going on?' She couldn't believe her eyes. When she came to search the kitchen earlier, she had checked every nook and cranny but couldn't find anything. How come Nolan was now preparing food as if it had been there all along?
It didn't seem all possible. She was sure that she wasn't imagining things.
"Just a little scallion, no garlic, thanks," Chloe said as she sat at the table.
He cast a glance at Chloe and put the noodles in a bowl. There were also vegetables, egg and some scallions.
Just a little scallions, as per her request.
When he was finished, he brought the bowl to Chloe. "Try it."
She was starving so she took it from him immediately and started to eat.
"Ah, ah! Hot."
Chloe stuck out her tongue.
She blew some air on the noodles to cool them the continued to slurp down the noodles.
From the look on her face, Nolan could tell that she was enjoying it.
Luckily, her senses were still active and alert. She glanced at Nolan and mumbled, "Didn't you say that you were hungry and would like to eat something? Why did you cook just one bowl of noodles?"
In truth, he was not hungry at all. He just saw that Chloe was starving, but he knew that she wouldn't admit it. He just said that he was hungry to lure her to eat something.
As it turned out, he was right.
"I asked you if you were hungry, didn't I? But you said you weren't.. That's why I only made one bowl. That bowl of noodles you're now eating was really for me."
Chloe, who was eating, heard his words and felt guilty. She took a glance at Nolan and held the bowl of noodles tightly. Even though she was still hungry, of course she should give it back to him.
She knew how it felt to be hungry. It was terrible. So she hurried up eating a bit more noodles and sipped a couple mouthfuls of soup. Then, she gave the bowl back to Nolan. "Okay, I am full. You can have the rest."
Nolan looked at her and raised an eyebrow at her. "Are you sure you're full?"
Chloe blinked her eyes. 'What would happen if I say that I'm still hungry?' she thought.
However, when she remembere
he massage slowly turned into something else. Before Chloe could realize what was happening, she was pressed under his body.
The next morning, when she woke up, she found that the person beside her had left. Stretching out her hand, she felt that the covers were already cold.
Judging from this, Nolan had been gone for some time already. Chloe groggily got her phone to check the time. When she saw the screen, she jolted out of bed.
As soon as she did, however, she accidentally stretched some part of her body, causing pain to shoot up her spine. She made a small cry of pain with a twisted face. It was already over ten o'clock.
Chloe now strongly suspected that Nolan did what he did last night because he didn't want her to go to the company early this morning. What a scheming man!
Chloe got up in a hurry, cleaned herself up and went downstairs.
The servants had already placed the warm dishes on the table, as if they knew she would be getting up late.
"Good morning, Ms. Chloe."
"Hi."
Chloe nodded casually.
After taking a couple of quick bites, she stood up and got ready to leave.
However, the servant called out to her hesitantly. "Ms. Chloe... Mr. Cheng said that you would have to eat them all before you leave,"
the servant said, gingerly pointing at the glass of milk and the sandwich on the table.
Afraid that Chloe might get upset, he spoke with the utmost care.
