Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 641

"Murray suddenly spoke up, his voice cutting through the silence like a knife. "She's like that, you know. The more pressure she's under, the calmer she gets." Grace couldn't help but smile, "When we toured earlier, I noticed the lab wasn't just all work; there was a lounge area and even a kitchen..."

Murray's eyebrows twitched, and he couldn't help but add, "Because Anne loves to cook, she's got a real knack for it. Whenever she tries something new at a restaurant, she'll spend days trying to recreate it at home. If the recipe she finds doesn't match up with what she tasted, she won't rest until she figures out the best version..."

"It sounds like you two had some incredible times..."

Murray, wrapped up in his recollections, continued, "She loves cleanliness, even insisting on keeping the slippers lined up perfectly. And me? I'm a bit of a mess, always doing things my own way, which led to many arguments. But she always found a way to make me admit I was wrong, whether through debate, acting cute, or just tackling me and shutting me up with a kiss..."
