Marriage Resumption (Valeria and Hackett)

Resumption 340

Chapter 340

The next day, early morning.

When Valeria opened her eyes, it was already past ten o'clock in the morning. She realized that she was alone in bed. Hackett had already disappeared somewhere. She slowly sat up, feeling like all the bones in her body were about to fall apart.

When she thought about last night, Valeria couldn't help but blush. This man was really ruthless. He nearly drained her.

Dragging her exhausted body out of bed, Valeria made her way to the bathroom. After getting ready, she put on one of Hackett's robes and headed downstairs.

The sound of the waves outside filled her ears, providing a comforting ambiance.

Valeria reached the ground floor but still didn't see Hackett. However, a pleasant aroma wafted from the kitchen.

Valeria, curious, made her way to the kitchen and found the tall figure of Hackett busy cooking something delicious.

This sight left Valeria mesmerized. The sunlight from the window cast a harmonious glow on Hackett's profile.

Lost in her thoughts for who knows how long, Valeria suddenly snapped back to reality. Hackett turned around, plated the dishes, and noticed Valeria's presence, raising an eyebrow, "Why are you standing there? Have you been awake for a while? How come you woke up and didn't tell me?"

Hearing it, Valeria finally came to her senses, "Yes, after I woke up, I realized there was no one in the room, so I went downstairs. What are you cooking?"

Valeria walked into the kitchen, and on the kitchen counter, she saw several dishes that Hackett had prepared. They looked and smelled delicious, making her mouth water.

"It's just the two of us. Why did you make so much food?"

"You exerted yourself quite a bit last night, and you need replenishment. Plus, you didn't have breakfast, so you must be hungry."

Hackett explained as he picked up two plates and headed toward the dining room. "Come help me carry the dishes. Don't expect a free meal."

Valeria silently lifted the pot of spare rib soup, couldn't resist taking a whiff. It smelled so good, and she was indeed starving.
