Chapter 172
“It’s done. I’ll get some for you. Wait for me in the living room. Matthew’s face, which had been tense all night, was obviously relieved.
“Okay,” Valerie responded.
She pulled the small blanket around her and went to the living room to get a spoon. Matthew came out with two bowls of soup.
Valerie handed him a spoon and he handed Valerie a bowl of soup. The two of them sat opposite each other.
“Aren’t you hungry? Try it. Matthew said.
Matthew’s voice was low as usual, but Valerie felt that what he said just now sounded a litle nervous
She didn’t expect him to be so nervous.
Valerie wanted to laugh but held it in
This was the first time someone took care of her so carefully when she was sick. Valerie was quite touched and was mentally prepared. No matter what the soup tasted like later, she would try her best to finish it.
However, she had to admit that the soup looked pretty good. The hot fragrance drilled into her nose. She was already extremely hungry, and now, her cravings were aroused,
However, when she thought about how he had mistaken the sugar for salt just now, she could not help but feel uneasy. Although she had quickly scooped out the sugar at that time, there should still be a lot of sugar molecules that had melted in the soup. With the salt and sugar together, she did not know what the final taste would be, so she could only carefully scoop up a spoonful and put it into her mouth.
However, to her surprise, her eyes lit up after she took a mouthful. She thought that the sweet and salty taste would be strange, but in fact, a little sweetness made the soup more delicious, which was quite surprising
She praised, “Mr. Grant, it’s delicious!”
Matthew had been paying close attention to her expression. When he heard her say that, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he still had that indifferent expression on his face. He scooped a mouthful and tasted it. He was sure that the taste was alright, but she was being too supportive. It wasn’t that delicious.
Although he thought so, he had to admit that his mood improved when he saw her smiling dimples.
Today was the first time he had cooked in his life. It was a little embarrassing to make a mess. Matthew secretly made a decision in his heart. If there was a chance in the future, he would definitely try to improve his cooking skills.
Although Valerie was extremely hungry, her appetite was not exuberant. She felt full after finishing a bowl of soup. Matthew took the initiative to take her bowl and cutlery and cleaned the table, preparing to send them into the dishwasher.
Valerie was a little embarrassed. “Mr. Grant, let me help you.”
As soon as the stood up, Matthew pressed her back down. He placed the small blanket on the sofa and draped it over her. Then, he got her a glass of water and stuffed it into her hand. He carried the bowl and cutlery into the kitchen.
Valerie knew that Matthew was a man of his word. She could only helplessly hold the small glass of water and cross her legs on her seat.
This was the first time she was so free.
Looking at Matthew’s busy back, Valerie could
not help but smile.
Matthew was still wearing his shirt and trousers. He had taken off his suit jacket, and his shirt sleeves were rolled up, revealing his strong and muscular arms. He should have been working our usually, and his muscles were very obvious.
However, in contrast to his masculinity, the apron around his waist was a little too cute. After all, when she bought the apron, she did not even connder that Matthew would use it, so the bought a cute light blue one with carrots and bunnies printed on it and a circle of lace around it. It was really incompatible with his temperament.
However, when Valerie saw the lace strap of the apron go around his waist, the suddenly felt quite tempted
Who wouldn’t be attracted by a tall and burly man doing housework in a lace apron!
