Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 846

An empty laugh came out of his chest. He really had no idea how it felt to marry a rich woman who was financially independent. Did he appear as he married her to step up the social ladder? He was lucky that his original family was financially well then.

It took Lee more than one hour to arrive at Kevin's apartment. He rang the bell to inform Kevin of his arrival. He was undeniably shocked at the sight of his Major General when the door opened though. Their heroic team head was wearing an apron while holding a kitchen knife in his hand. He never saw such things happened in his Army house, thus he suddenly asked himself if it was already the end of the world! What was wrong with his Major General?

"Stop being idle. Come in. The dishes will be ready soon. Help me clean the house after you eat." Kevin walked quickly to the kitchen as soon as he let Lee in and finished his words. He did not have time to care about Lee's astonished expression. The dish on the stove was about to be over-cooked!

It was the first time for Lee to step into this house after Kevin got married. He was afraid that he might meet the hostess, so he was a little over-cautious as he looked around. He had never talked to Leena and had merely seen her from a long distance once.

"What are you waiting for? Go and get the bowls." He was still stagnant as Kevin took what he cooked from the stove. A slight frown formed on Kevin's face as he saw Lee was still in shock and did nothing.

"Major General, is your wife not home?" Lee finally found the strength to move and follow Kevin around the kitchen.

"No. She's in Paris. She has a dissertation to deal with. I wouldn't have called you here if she were home," Kevin replied. He did not need to take care of everything at home when Leena was around. She would usually arrange everything for their house on set. It was something he never got to think of until she was not home. Now he realized that it was not an easy job to run a family. It needed the devotion to make a home.

"Major General, is your wife still a student?"

Lee asked curiously. The idea that Leena wasn't home made him comfortable. It was not that he was afraid of Leena, it was just that he did not know how to get along with women from rich families. After all, he had the stereotype that most of them were quite arrogant and they would look down upon other people. He worried that he might offend her without even realizing it. He did not want to get too close to them.

"Yes. But she will graduate soon. You go and put the rice into the bowls. There is one more soup I'm cooking. We can start the meal as soon as it's done." Just like Daisy, Kevin was kind to his bodyguard. He never suppressed his men or looked down on them.

"Ok. Maybe I can cook the soup!" Lee usually cooked for Kevin whenever they were in the Army Base, thus, he knew his food preference very much.

"No need. It'll be done soon. Don't feel stressed and nervous here. Just be yourself. There's no difference between here and the army base." Kevin bought many vegetables earlier and stacked them in the fridge. He started cooking right after he was done cleaning their room. He had estimated the time that Lee would take to drive from the Army Base to his home. He knew beforehand that he would reach there around lunchtime.
