Requiem of a Broken Heart

Chapter 378:

“Yvonne, I swear your cooking just keeps getting better.” Rachel’s voice was full of admiration as she savored another bite.

Jeffrey piped up cheerfully, “Yeah, Yvonne! Your food is amazing! I ate so much at lunch!”

Yvonne’s eyes twinkled with mischief as she teased, “So, Jeffrey, whose cooking do you like more—mine or your sister’s?”

“They’re different,” he tilted his head thoughtfully.

“Oh? How so?” Yvonne pressed with curiosity.

“When you cook for me, I feel really happy… but mostly grateful. But when my sister cooks, it makes me sad because I see how hard she works, and I don’t want her to be tired.”

Jeffrey’s words melted both Yvonne’s and Rachel’s hearts.

Rachel immediately took his hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

“Jeffrey, I love cooking for you. It doesn’t make me tired at all.” Her voice was warm, filled with sincerity. “I don’t need anything in return—just having you here with me is enough.”
