Chapter 528

“Eat some more, Nathan said gently as he placed a peeled shrimp on Zinnia’s plate.

Zinnia noticed Nathan’s plate was empty. He hadn’t eaten much, while she was the only one eating. “You should eat more, too, Nathan.”

Then Zinnia picked up a piece of lamb chops with her fork and placed it on Nathan’s plate. “Come on. Eat more of this,” she said. Looking at Nathan’s gaunt frame, she lowered her gaze.

Ever since Nathan’s health started deteriorating, his appetite had significantly decreased.

“Alright, I’ll eat more. You should eat more, too, Zinnia.” Nathan lowered his head, gazing at the meat on his plate. His eyes narrowed slightly as he picked it up with his fork and forced himself to take a bite.

Nathan picked up the glass of orange juice and took a small sip, trying to suppress the nausea rising in his throat. Then he asked gently, “What would you like for a Christmas gift this year?”

Zinnia shook her head. “I don’t want any Christmas gifts,” she replied. What she truly wished for was for Nathan to get well.

Zinnia used to look forward to Christmas, but not anymore. Now, its arrival only reminded her that Nathan’s time was running out.

Nathan said casually, “It’s Christmas Eve, Zinnia, Come on. Let’s have some holiday cheer! With all this tasty food, you can’t find a single dish that makes you happy? If that’s the case, then I guess all this food is pretty pointless, huh?”

“Seriously? They can’t even talk. How could they possibly cheer me up?” Zinnia chuckled at his playfully disappointed tone.

Just as they were chatting, there was a commotion outside the yard. “Hey, Nathan, are you and Zinnia home?” someone called from outside.

“Hey, Zee. Are you guys home?” Chandler asked.

“I’ll go check who’s at the door,” Zinnia said, rising to her feet and heading outside.

Nathan stood up as well, following closely behind her.

“Hey, Nathan, Zee, are you home?”

“How come Zee didn’t set off any fireworks this year? Did they leave again?”

“I don’t think so. I haven’t seen them go out. Maybe something happened to Nathan and Zee? Zee doesn’t seem her usual cheerful self.”
