Chapter 172

Aveline asked somewhat nervously, "Is it... not good?"

Russell looked at her and suddenly said, "Just one meal isn't enough."

"Huh?" Aveline was confused. "Then how many meals would be enough?" Russell laughed at her puzzled expression and held up three fingers.

Aveline laughed too. "Three meals? No problem. Just let me know when you're free, and I'll cook for you."

Her respectful and humble attitude made it clear she saw him as a friend. Russell felt a strange sense of familiarity with this dynamic and slowly lowered his hand. "We'll see when I'm in the mood." "Sure, no problem," Aveline agreed readily.

Cooking a few meals wasn't a big deal. She just wanted to repay this favor.

Despite feeling a bit uneasy, Russell had to admit Aveline's cooking was really good. It suited his taste perfectly. He ended up eating two extra servings!

Seeing the dishes nearly empty, Russell began doubting his own appetite.

Aveline came over to drink some water, glanced at the table, and asked, "Russ, was it enough?"

"Yes, it was," Russell replied, a bit speechless.

Aveline sighed in relief.
