The Lost Heiress 196

Chapter 196 Unexpected Plus–Ones

“No need to fuss; I ordered a meal from the restaurant, and they’ll deliver it soon.”

He didn’t fancy cooking for Mateo, and the thought of Sierra doing it hadn’t even crossed his mind. He rarely had a proper meal himself. Why should I prepare for Mateo!
