Chapter 233

"So." Sophia glanced at his fridge, "Got anything to eat in there? I can whip something up for you."

"Fridge is bare." Brandon said, "There's a grocery store downstairs. I'll go with you."

Brandon had already bent over to pick up the keys from the table, "Let's roll."

Sophia hesitated, looking at him, "Last time I was sick in the hospital, I just lived off takeout."

So it was not like she was too precious to eat anything that wasn't freshly made.

Brandon gave her a look, "You never said you were against takeout."

Seeing that she wasn't keen on going, Brandon didn't push her.

"You hang tight here; I'll head down and buy some stuff," he said and turned to leave.

Sophia saw that both of his hands were injured, and in the end, she couldn't bear to let him, an injured man, go shopping and carry stuff.

"I should go; you just rest at home," she said, following him and reaching for the keys in his hand.

Brandon didn't hand them over, "Let's go together."

He had already pushed the door open. Sophia had no choice but to follow.

The supermarket was just downstairs. It wasn't big, but being in a high-end neighborhood, the selection was fresh and plentiful.

"What do you feel like eating?"

Surveying the array of ingredients, Brandon turned to ask Sophia.

"Don't worry about me; what do you want to eat?" Sophia replied, "I have to head back soon, got a project to rush tonight."

Brandon took a look at her, "Your boss is right here; no need to bust your gut."

Sophia pressed her lips, “I don't like to procrastinate."

Brandon nodded, acknowledging that was indeed Sophia's style. She always got things done today, never putting them off.
