"It's so noisy."

Maddox complained. He turned around expressionlessly and reached out to cover his ear.

After Geoffrey left, the room finally became quiet.

Minerva was still cooking in the kitchen. He walked towards the door and looked at her.

The light in the kitchen was yellowish and she was wearing a light-colored apron. Her long hair was tied behind her head, and the light gave her a soft glow.

Looking at her, he had a thought in mind that two loving people should live like this.

He hadn't known her for a long time, not even more than half a month. He didn't know the woman in front of him at all, but his brain didn't seem to be able to control his body. He kept finding ways to be close to her.

What was going on with him?

Why?

While Maddox was lost in thoughts, Minerva seemed to have sensed something and turned her head to look at him.

"What are you doing standing there?" She asked curiously, "Do you want to help out?"

There was a hint of suspicion in her eyes, although it did not appear on her face.

His thin lips twitched, a strong sense of helplessness rose from the bottom of his heart.

He didn't know that one day, he would lack the confidence and ability to communicate with a woman.

"Forget it. Wait for me in the living room. It'll be done soon," she said. Then, she turned around and continued to cook.

He remained quiet.

That day's dinner was similar to the day before. She had cooked vegetables, meat, and soup. Ever since Minerva knew that she was pregnant, she never treated herself badly when it came to eating. She would only eat less when she was too tired to cook.

It was like a ritual. She would take her time in the supermarket, choosing and buying only the ingredients and vegetables she needed. Then, she would go home, take her time to cook her meals, and then eat alone.
