Chapter 319
So, no matter what happened, I had to let it go for now.
Ellie was such a pure girl, but she was also sensitive. I couldn’t let my emotions affect her.
By the time Brandon and Ellie came back, I had already finished the mushroom soup and even stole some soup from Brandon’s bowl.
Since I was stealing food from Brandon, Ellie naturally assumed that Brandon and I hadn’t had a fight after all.
They both seemed a bit surprised by my actions, staring at me.
I put a spoonful of mushroom soup in my mouth. Then, I said with a slightly embarrassed tone, “I think I could have another bowl.”
“I’ll go make some more right now!” Ellie first looked surprised, then a little flustered.
“No need, let her finish mine,” Brandon said, offering me his bowl.
There was no way I could have another bowl. I winked at him and took a spoonful. “I’ll just have a couple more spoonfuls.”
“Then let’s share,” Brandon said as he took the spoon from my hand and drank the soup.
I was stunned, but Ellie burst into laughter. “Mae, the way you two are feeding each other is so sweet!”
That was when I realized Brandon had figured out my intention and was playing along with me.
Ellie was completely won over by our act, and her mood brightened again. Brandon and I kept up the charade, taking turns feeding each other until we finished the whole bowl of soup.
As Brandon washed the dishes, Ellie pulled me aside. “Mae, I’ve changed the bedsheets for you both, and your toiletries are ready. If you need anything else, just let me know.”
“Thank you, Ellie,” I said, grateful for her kindness and attentiveness. I could only express my thanks this
way.
