Love Is Fair by Kerri

Chapter 287 Humble and Affectionate Ex-Husband

When it was about noon, Hailey helped Owen sit up, set the small table, and served the dishes. Owen looked at the hearty meal and smiled. To her eyes, his smile was awkward and weird. She had opened his skull but had not done anything to his brain. Why did he keep smiling?

“What are you smiling about?”

Owen looked up at her. “Doesn’t this feel Déjà vu?”

Huh? Hailey was puzzled but soon realized what he was talking about. It was true. A few days ago, she was the patient, and he visited her with a lunchbox. Now it was the other way around.

The word “us” made Owen’s heart tremble. He stared at her unblinkingly. His dark, deep eyes were twinkling.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Is there rice on my face?” Hailey gave him no chance to hit on her. She handed the knife and fork to him before saying, “Dig in.”

“Oh,” Owen clutched the fork like an obedient kid and asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Yeah, go ahead with your dinner,” she replied.
