The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 2092

The undertone of humility in his voice was unmistakable. Didn’t he realize it himself?

Cicely turned her head away, her voice indifferent, “That depends on what you want to do.”

Seth gave a wry smile, “Alright, then you…”

“I’m going downstairs.” Cicely cut him off, having already taken the lead out of the room.

Seth followed her.

There was no one in the living room, empty as if she had just played out a scene in her mind alone.d2

Seth, oblivious, saw Cicely standing on the last step looking silently into the living room. He turned back to take her hand and led her to the couch, bending down to find the remote and turn on the TV. “Sit here; it’ll be ready soon.”

Cicely sat down obediently.

Half an hour later, dinner was served. The dishes on the table were unquestionably to her liking.

Cicely sat down, reflecting that every time they ate together, it seemed the meal catered mainly to her tastes. Aside from the vague awareness that his preferences were light, she had little recollection of his specific favorites.

Cicely calmly picked up her fork and took a bite from the closest dish, her face expressionless.

“How is it?”

“If I say it’s not good, would you stop eating?”

Seth paused, then took a bite himself. It tasted just fine.

“I’ll have this one. You eat whatever else you find palatable.”

Cicely frowned, watching as he swapped his plate with one from in front of her. For several minutes, Seth ate only that one dish.
