Chapter 331 Still Had Things to Do Later

When Evelyn ran downstairs, Sadie happened to bring out the food. She cooked noodles, which looked

delicious.

Evelyn offered to help fetch the tableware from the kitchen, but Sadie quickly intervened. “Please don’t.

I’ll take care of these tasks, Ms. Shelton. You don’t have to do them,” she said, trying to dissuade her.

“It’s fine. I see you’re busy. I can take it by hand,” Evelyn insisted.

“No, that’s what I should do. How can I let you do it?” Sadie took the tableware from her and placed it in

order. “If Mr. Lloyd sees it later, he’ll worry about you.”

Feeling slightly embarrassed under Sadie’s teasing gaze, Evelyn raised her hand to run her fingers

through her hair. “It’s all right. I used to do all the household chores myself before. Sadie, you don’t

have to be too formal. We don’t emphasize the employer–employee relationship here. Your coming to

work here is a kind of fate,” she said.

When Huston came downstairs, he happened to hear what

so she would never make things difficult for others.

It was also because of this kindness that he was deeply attracted to her.

Huston changed into comfortable home clothes. Sadie pulled out a stool for him and said, “Mr. Lloyd,

dinner is ready!”

Compared to Evelyn, Huston was not as easy to get along with. He nodded slightly to indicate he heard

it.

The two of them sat down, and Huston didn’t have the habit of talking while eating. Evelyn, on the other

hand, almost devoured her food. During the meal, apart from the sound of utensils clinking, there was

hardly any other sound.

Perhaps it was too quiet, and Huston began to feel somewhat uncomfortable. He turned his head to

look at Evelyn, who was enjoying her meal with a content expression. His eyes were filled with

tenderness. “Is the food to your liking?” he asked.

“It suits my taste perfectly! These culinary skills are amazing, even better than my mom’s,” Evelyn

exclaimed. Although Lucy’s cooking was delicious, there was still some gap compared to Sadie’s.

Huston’s lips curled up. “It’s good that you like it.”

she reached over to take it and ladled some soup for him. “Have some. It’s good for your health,” she

said.

As she spoke, she also placed a few pieces of chicken into his

bowl. “Eat up,” she said.

Huston looked at the steaming chicken on his plate and

recalled the last time someone had served him chicken, which was when he was around six or seven

years old. At

that time, he was the only child in the family, and his parents‘ relationship hadn’t completely broken

down yet. They always gave him chicken drumsticks to eat during festivals and

special occasions. Unfortunately, everything changed, and he never experienced that feeling again.

Seeing him staring at the chicken with a vacant expression,

Evelyn was about to say something when she suddenly noticed a hint of sadness in his eyes. It made

her feel uneasy in an instant. Trying to lighten the mood, she jokingly said, “Are

you feeling touched? I usually don’t serve chicken drumsticks to others, but I’ll make an exception for

you since you’re a patient.”

Huston snapped out of his thoughts and took a bite of the chicken. The meat was tender, flavorful, and

not greasy. “Not

bad,” he remarked.

He rarely complimented anyone, so Evelyn quickly turned to

skills have earned his praise.”

“Really? I feel so honored!” Sadie exclaimed upon hearing that Huston enjoyed the food. She felt a

sense of accomplishment in her heart.

They ate the meal with great satisfaction. Evelyn hardly stopped eating, consuming almost half of the

four dishes. She also had a bowl of soup. She felt so full that she lay on the couch and didn’t want to

get up.

Huston took a cup of warm water from the kitchen and handed it to her. She quickly waved her hand

and said, “No, I can’t drink anymore.”

“Drink some. We have something to do later.” Huston insisted on her drinking and handed her a glass

of water.

Seeing that she couldn’t refuse, Evelyn took a perfunctory sip. The food she had just eaten was almost

stuck in her throat. “What else do you want to do later?”

It was almost eight o’clock. Were they going out?

When he met her blank gaze, his eyes seemed to contain

countless stars shining brightly. He stared at her without

saying a word, and the emotions in his eyes gradually became

fervent.
