Baron Lawrenceâs handsome face darkened. This woman was becoming bolder and bolder. Not only did she ignore his disapproval, she ignored him completely?
âIâll get you a glass of water. Have some food first, then rest a bit before taking your medicine.â
The words ânot hungryâ seemed to fall from her lips, but in the end she didnât say them.
With a gloomy face, he got up and walked over to the dining table, pulling out a chair to sit down.
As soon as he sat down, the scent of Tomato and Egg Noodles flowed into his nostrils with the rising steam, smoothing out the tension on his face considerably.
He picked up his chopsticks, pulled up a mouthful of noodles, and began to eatâ¦
It had been over a year since he last tasted these Tomato and Egg Noodles made by this woman. The flavor was just as he remembered.
His appetite suddenly returned, and his empty stomach grumbled with hunger. Ignoring the sound, he continued to eat with an aristocratic flair.
Enna Clark brought over a glass of honey water for him, only to find that he had already started eating. She frowned, âWhy have you started eating already? Didnât I tell you to rest a bit first? The noodles are too hot; itâs not good for your stomach to eat something so hot when you have stomach pain.â
Baron Lawrence, whoâd consumed almost half the bowl, gave her a side glance, âYou told me to rest before taking the medicine, not before eating the noodles.â
ââ¦â Enna was left speechless.
She did ask him to rest before taking his medicine, but that was because she thought he wouldnât start eating the noodles immediately. They were just cooked and still steaming hot. Who would have thought he would start eating right away?
But since he had already eaten more than half, Enna didnât dwell on it. She set the glass of water in front of him, âHave a sip of water before you continue eating.â
âLeave it there.â Right now, he didnât want to drink water; he just wanted to finish the Tomato and Egg Noodles she made!
Seeing him bury his head and start eating again, Enna guessed that he probably hadnât eaten all day. With a sigh, she didnât say anything more and pulled out a chair to sit across from him.
The bowl of Tomato and Egg Noodles was quickly finished.
The arrogant manâs face was clearly unsatisfied, but Enna pretended not to see it and pushed the glass of water in front of him again, âDrink some water.â
He had an upset stomach and couldnât eat anything too hot, spicy or greasy. Similarly, he shouldnât eat too much. So she made just a small bowl of noodles, estimating it would fill him up about seventy percent.
Baron Lawrence took the glass and took a sip of water.
The slightly sweet taste nuances dissolved the greasiness left by the scrambled eggs in his mouth. Only then did he realize he was drinking honey water, and the temperature was just right.
His mood improved a bit more, and in a blink, he forgot that Enna had just ignored him.
Seeing some color returning to his pale lips, Enna heaved a sigh of relief. After waiting for ten minutes, she handed him the stomach medicine and watched as he swallowed it.
Only then did she rub her temples, âIâm going to take a shower.â
Since the beginning, she hadnât taken a shower, and she now felt sticky all over, extremely uncomfortable.
Saying this, she got up and walked into the bathroom in the bedroom.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Half an hour later, she came out of the bathroom with her hair dry, only to find that the man who had taken the medicine was already in bed reading a book waiting for her. Seeing her come out, he authoritatively patted the spot next to him, calling her over like he was summoning a pet, âCome here.â
Enna remembered how he had been stubborn about his stomach pain earlier and didnât want to go over. She walked straight to the bed and lay down at the furthest corner from him.
As soon as she lay down, her waist was grabbed, and she was pulled over and held in his arms.
âBaron Lawrence, itâs hot!â She struggled a bit.
But he only held her tighter. Above her head, an amused male voice commanded, âSleep!â
