Chapter 2319 Double Standard

Mrs. Zoe washed her hands and wanted to go to the kitchen to cook.

She was happy today because Clayton was back. This family could finally be the same as before.

The two children went to take a bath. Clayton did not worry about them because they could take care of themselves, so he voluntarily went to the kitchen to help.

Seeing that his legs were injured, Mrs. Zoe smiled and asked him to go out.

"Sir, I’ll make whatever you want to eat. You should rest outside.”

Clayton smiled. His face was relaxed, and his voice was deep and pleasant.

"It's okay. You can cook your meal and the children’s meal. I'll cook mine and Nicole’s."

Mrs. Zoe paused and immediately understood what he wanted to do.

"Okay. Mr. Sloan. When you weren't around, something just seemed missing at home. Even though everyone acted the same as before, it felt different, especially Madam. She seldom even talked. We all thought you were dead, and we could all tell that she was very sad. But she never cried in front of the children, and she never told them that you met with an accident. Looking at it now, I guess you two really have a special connection. It was all just a false alarm, and you survived a catastrophe. You definitely will have good luck from now on!" 1

Mrs. Zoe's words stunned Clayton. He felt like someone had punched him in the chest, and he had no choice but to accept it silently.

Everyone knew Nicole was having a hard time.

Only he was ignoring her pain.

How despicable!

After a long time, Clayton finally reacted.

"I hope so."

His voice was deep and hoarse.

Mrs. Zoe made a healthy and delicious meal for the children.

Clayton and Nicole’s meal was simple. It was spinach and tuna pasta, which was Nicole's favorite supper.

Nicole smelled the aroma of the food and woke up.

Although her whole body was sore and limp, she was starving.
