Ice and Fire novel Chapter 655

Greg caressed Violet's hair softly and said in a doting tone,"Now you should take some sleep and I will go out to buy some food. I guess you haven't had breakfast."

"How did you know that?" asked Violet, blushing and feeling a little embarrassed.

"I know you well. You can keep yourself busy doing things for others and that has always been your true nature," said Greg. How couldn't he know her? She always thought of others and never even once thought about herself.

"Fine. But I am indeed famished now," Violet put a hand on her belly and then looked at Greg pitifully.

Looking at this delicate and touching girl, Greg always felt very protective. In a very tender voice, he whispered,"Okay, now do as I say. You go to sleep and I will go out to buy some food."

"I will. But what about your work? Won't that be affected?" Violet suddenly realized that Greg still had a lot of pending work to do.

" You tell me what is more important, you or my work?" retorted Greg angrily.

Violet pondered for a second and gave him a bright smile, then replied,"It seems that now I am more important."

"Then go to sleep right now and I am going out. Stay here quietly!" Greg ordered her.

"Yes, sir!" Violet answered back loudly.

One hour later, when Violet woke up and rubbed her sleepy eyes, she saw that Greg was already sitting on the bedside watching her intently.

"Oh, Greg, when did you come back?" Violet asked as she got up from her bed.

"I just came back for a minute," Greg replied softly. When he saw the tiredness on her face, he felt distressed. "Silly girl, why do you get up so early every morning? Don't tire yourself so much."

"It's okay for me! Really I am not tired!" Violet pretended to be strong and smiled at Greg coyly. She felt very warm and touched by his concern for her.

Greg fondled her cheek and softly kissed her on the forehead. He then gently said,"Now, let's go and eat something."

"Okay," replied Violet. Her heart was filled with happiness and joy.

Greg sat beside her watching as Violet ate the food that he had brought, feeling quite happy. He loved to see her smiling and her happiness was the biggest wish he had!

"Greg, but why don't you eat with me?" Violet suddenly realized that only she was eating and Greg was just looking at her. He had brought her a generous meal and she could hardly finish all that by herself.
