Chapter 171
Barbara watched Maxwell as he walked away, feeling utterly frustrated. She marle an effort to talk to him the whole time he was in the kitchen, yet he remained cold and indifferent. He could not even feign a smile. At the same time, ironically, Barbara's longing for Maxwell's love intensified. She could not wait for the day when he would shower her with endless attention. Mona would be driven crazy with jealousy at the sight of that. In the room, Maxwell first placed the noodles on the table. Then, he gently lifted Mona from the bed and carefully settled her onto the sofa.
His movements were incredibly gentle as if Mona were as fragileas glass, ready to break with even the slightest misstep. As soon as Maxwell entered the room, Mona caught the delicious aroma of the noodles. She had been starving. Seeing the glistening sunny side up in front of her, Mona picked up her fork and took a bite. The rich taste of the egg. combined with the savory broth, had her reaching for a second bite almost immediately.
She gave Maxwell a thumbs-up and praised, "This tastes amazing! Your cooking skills have improved again"
Maxwell's lips could not help but curve into a smile at Mona's praise. Sitting next to her, he said. "I'm glad you like it. Just let me know anytime you're craving something, I'll make it for you
"What if it's something you don't know how to make?" Mona asked playfully.
I don't know how, I'll just learn. I'm sure I can pick it up in no time. You just wait to enjoy the meal. Maxwell said confidently.
"That's so sweet of you. You should eat soon, ifthe noodles sit too long, they'll get soggy, Mona said, smiling.
Looking back on her life, she knew that the best decision she ever made was marrying Maxwell and becoming Mrs. Carter.
Later that night, Maxwell helped Mona to apply medicine again. With the experience from the first time, everything went more smoothly.
As Mona's injury was on her side, Maxwell could not hold her close while they slept like he usually did. He thus left a bit of space between them.
As Maxwell lay beside Mona, he felt a little unsettled not holding her. It felt almost like they were back in the early days of their engagement
Maxwell was not the only one feeling out of place. Mona felt odd sleeping alone without the usual source of warmth beside
