Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1460

Seeing how easily she fell for it, the foul mood Joel Garner had sparked in Harold completely evaporated.

He raised an eyebrow, a faint, genuine smile touching his lips. "What do you want to eat? I'll cook."

Huh?

Lorelei was stunned. In all the time they'd been married, she had never known he could cook.

"You know how to cook?" she asked cautiously, blinking in surprise.

"I picked it up over the last couple of years."

"Oh." Lorelei didn't dare press further. "Could we do Garlic Butter Shrimp?"

"No seafood with that foot injury," Harold said strictly. "How about Braised Ribs?"

"That works."

An elite surgeon who likely insured his hands for millions was personally cooking for her. She was in no position to be picky.

Besides.

She wanted to indulge a little and enjoy whatever time they had left.

Two months would be over in the blink of an eye.

The groceries arrived quickly.

Harold changed into a comfortable light sweater and tied on an apron, looking every bit the perfect domestic husband.

His knife skills were surprisingly professional; he clearly spent a lot of time in the kitchen.

Did he learn to cook specifically for his old flame?

Lorelei's thoughts drifted back to the pretty girl she'd seen at the hospital earlier.

She really wanted to know what she looked like.

In less than two hours.

A full spread was on the table: Braised Ribs, Sautéed Pork with Mushrooms, Sautéed Broccoli, and Egg Drop Soup.

Every single dish was her absolute favorite.

But he had only asked her about the ribs.

What a crazy coincidence!

"Time to eat." Harold carried her to the table and thoughtfully scooped her a bowl of rice and a serving of soup.

"Oh."

Lorelei still wasn't used to this—just the two of them, sitting across from each other like this.
