Chapter 232 The Person Supporting His Wife in the Background


"Cormac, did you make all this?" Aurora asked, eyes full of admiration.

Cormac wanted to say yes, but he couldn't.

"No, I bought it all," he admitted, knowing he couldn't cook.

"You bought it?" Aurora looked worried. "How much did all this meat cost? It must've been expensive. I don't need much to be full. This is too wasteful."

"You're still growing. Eating isn't a waste."

Aurora shook her head. "But you work so hard, and making money isn't easy. You shouldn't spend like this."

Cormac gently patted her head. "Don't worry, Aurora. I sold that watch and got some money. We're good for the next few months. You can have meat at every meal."

Aurora's eyes widened in shock. "Was your watch made of gold? How could it get so much meat? My dad's watch was twenty dollars and couldn't even get a few pounds of meat."

Her words made Cormac feel both helpless and heartbroken. "Just think of it as gold. Eat up."

"Okay." Aurora quickly washed her hands and sat down to eat, savoring every bite. She didn't forget to offer some to Cormac. "Cormac, try it too."

"Alright."

Seeing Aurora eat so happily, Cormac had mixed feelings.

"I'm so full. Thank you, Cormac." After eating, Aurora patted her belly. "If my dad could see how well I'm living now, he'd be very happy. He always said there are good people in the world. Cormac, you're one of them." Cormac forced a smile.

After the meal, Aurora started cleaning up. "You go do your homework. I'll clean up," Cormac said.

"No need, Cormac. You work hard and need to rest when you get home. I'm not tired from school. I can do this." Aurora took the dishes to the kitchen to wash.

She wiped the table, swept, and mopped the floor. After finishing all the chores, Aurora said, "Cormac, you go take a shower and rest. I'll do my homework." Aurora did everything so skillfully that Cormac couldn't imagine how young she must have been when she started doing these tasks.

Given the small space, the bathroom was quite compact. Cormac quickly showered and then knocked on Aurora's bedroom door.
