Loveless Marriage novel Chapter 90

As expected, just as she lay down, Christian pushed the door open. He walked to the bedside, then opened the lunchbox.

The fragrance of the dishes soon filled the air.

Quietly watching him patiently arranged everything for her, she suddenly recalled last time when he looked after her in hospital. At that time, they hadn't got divorced, and he also took care of her like this. But this time, however, still some difference from last time. 

"What are you doing? Aren't you starving?" Christian handed the fork to her, his gentle interrupting her thoughts.

"Oh, thanks." Isabella took the fork, looking at the dishes placed in front of her. There was a steak, a salad, and also a borsch.

She then raised her head and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Eat. I'll eat later." Christian smiled. He naturally reached out and pulled her hair from cheek behind her ears.

Isabella's ears grew hot, then she unnaturally lowered her head to eat. She tried to sound indifferent, "It's too much, and I can't feat them all. Let's eat together."

"Okay."

".."

Isabella hadn't expected that he would agree so straightforwardly. She was immediately choked, feeling that she was schemed by him again.

But she actually didn't have much appetite. The reason she asked him to buy food was to send him away for a while.

She was still not feeling very well. Looking at the steak, she even wanted to throw up, but she endured the urge. 

Christian sat on the side of the bed and ate with her. patiently without a sound. 

Isabella knew that he didn't like to talk in a meal. 

They sat very close to each other, and because of the quietness, they could even hear each other's breathing. Christian's smell mixed with the fragrance of dishes entered Isabella's nose, making her heart throb, as though she had returned to her previous married life.

Seeing that she was only eating the salad, Christian picked up a piece of steak and placed it into her plate, saying softly, "Have some meat."

Staring at steak for a few seconds, Isabella finally ate it mixed with some cabbage.

"Cough...”

Christian immediately put down his fork, patted her on the back, frowning, "Are you still a child?"

"Have some soup."

Isabella's pretty face turned blushed. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she coughed a bit as well. She then anxiously took the soup from his hands and had a big gulp.

Suddenly, her eyes suddenly opened wide, "What's the soup is it?"

"Borscht."

"…”

Feeling a sudden sick, Isabella's face changed. She suddenly pushed him away and rushed outside.

"…"

Christian nerves tensed up, with anxiety flashing across his face. He then quickly chased after her.
