Chapter 155

Then he went back to the kitchen, rolled up his sleeves, and started washing the vegetables.

The kitchen in this tiny apartment was really small, which was a bit crowded with two people in it.

After Eileen finished chopping the vegetables, she turned to get a plate and bumped into Egbert.

Their arms were pressing against each other.

Egbert turned to look at her.

Eileen pointed and said, “Hand me that plate.”

Egbert handed her the plate.

After a while, Eileen came back over.

Seeing that Egbert had his hands full, she reached over him to grab a fork from the other side.

Egbert’s large frame made it difficult for her to move.

Eileen had to lean over and stretch her arm, pressing against Egbert’s body, just to reach the fork.

Egbert straightened up a bit at that moment, and Eileen instinctively stepped aside to avoid him.

Egbert gently supported her slim waist with one hand, and handed her the fork with the other.

Eileen glanced at his palm on her waist and immediately said, “Don’t touch me! Your hand is wet, making my clothes wet too!”

Egbert chuckled, and then he placed the fork in her hand.

Eileen took the fork, turned around, and stirred the vegetables in the plate.

Then Egbert took out an egg.

There was a loud “crack”.

Eileen turned her head just in time to see Egbert crack the egg too hard, causing the shell to fall into the egg mixture.

Eileen and Egbert went silent.

Eileen was a bit annoyed, “Didn’t you say you knew how to cook?”

Egbert calmly turned around, intending to dump the egg mixture, while explaining, “I accidentally did that.”
