The Woman From Hell

Chapter 438

I went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes. When I turned around and saw Matthew’s gloomy face right behind me, it gave me a scare. The dish in my hands nearly slipped and fell.

Seeing that he had given me a scare, he apologized softly. "I'm sorry."

I tried to smile but the corners of my lips only twitched. "You can just wait for me at the dining table."

He nodded and walked toward the table.

I served the dishes onto the dining table and sat across from him. Then, I handed him a pair of chopsticks. "Help yourself."

Matthew stopped eating after a few bites. I understood that he did not have much of an appetite now, so I refrained from commenting on it.
