The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 369

Abraham said, “The doctor had said. You couldn’t afford to catch a cold now.”

Stella replied, “Got it.”

When she got out of the car, a cold breeze swept in. Stella instinctively hid in Abraham’s arms. The winter at Rivermount was sure cold.

Watching her instinctive move, a flicker of tenderness flashed in his eyes as he embraced her, guarded her, and walked inside.

As they walked, Stella said, “Abraham, I want to have some peach cobbler.

Abraham asked, “What’s that?” as he had never eaten it before.

Stella replied, “It’s a snack at Rivermount that is made of batter, biscuit, and fruit filling.

Abraham asked, “Is it sweet?”

Stella nodded and replied, “Yeah.”

Abraham continued to ask, “The one you’ve had in the afternoon?”

He remembered that she wasn’t particular about food, except that she always insisted on having broth.

Abraham thought, From spicy food to sweet food? That’s a huge shift in taste.

Stella said, “Yeah, I feel like eating suddenly.”

Abraham said, “Alright, I’ll have someone prepare it.”

Stella smiled.

They entered inside, and when they passed the kitchen area, a fragrant aroma filled the air. Stella covered her lips instinctively; her stomach was feeling unwell.

Seeing her holding her stomach, Abraham asked, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Stella asked, “What’s being prepared in the kitchen today? Why is the smell so intense?”
