Marrying The Supposed Gold Digger (Valerie) novel Chapter 517

The cupcakes were ready too. Valerie took them out, filled the piping bag with cream, and decorated them.

Valerie had some baking experience, so she pretended to be like a teacher and taught Matthew how to decorate the cupcake step by step. With his imposing height of nearly two meters, wearing an apron, he carefully tried to pipe flowers onto the cupcake which made the scene oddly amusing.

It was surprising that Matthew picked it up quickly, and the flowers he piped were quite presentable.

"Is it really your first time doing it?" Valerie questioned.

Matthew glanced at Valerie and said resignedly, "Who else do you think can make me do such things besides you?"

Matthew spoke as if it was an obvious fact which made Valerie feel both amused and annoyed. Valerie cut some fruits into cube shapes, and once Matthew was almost done with the piping decorations on the cupcakes, she carefully placed the fruits on top of them.

Valerie had been busy recently and Matthew did not have much free time either. Moments, when they could interact so quietly, were rare, but both of them could not help but get lost in this calm and serene atmosphere, wishing they could live such peaceful days forever.

Matthew stretched out his hand and grabbed a strawberry. "It tastes good."

Valerie could not help but nudged Matthew. "It's not done yet, you can't sneak a taste. We're going to show it to Olivia later!"

Matthew's tone was unusually tinged with a hint of playful resentment. "Sometimes I feel like you care more about Grandma than me."

Ignoring Matthew, Valerie baked some cookies, and after finishing up, she took Matthew straight to the Andersons' house.

The box in Valerie's hands attracted Olivia's attention.

"Val, what's this?" asked Olivia.

"These are some snacks I made, cookies and cupcakes, with no sugar added," replied Valerie.

Matthew reminded, "I helped her make them."

Olivia looked at Matthew with suspicion. "You made the snacks with her? Matthew, since when did you know how to bake?"

Matthew answered indifferently but with a tinge of pride shown on his face, "I was the one who piped the flowers."

Olivia understood. 'That meant everything else except for the piping decorations was done by Valerie!'

Upon hearing Matthew's words, Olivia immediately grabbed Valerie's hand. "Val, my dear, don't tire yourself out like this. No need to bring gifts when you visit me! Since Matthew knows how to do it too, let him do it next time!"

Matthew was stunned.

Only a few days had passed since they last met, but Olivia's complexion had improved a lot. Valerie smiled and said, "There's no sincerity if I just buy them. Grandma, mine are truly sugar-free and good for elderly health. I don't mind the effort as long as you enjoy them. Besides, Matthew will help out if I get too tired."

Olivia could not help but smile when she heard that, thinking to herself that even the independent Matthew finally had someone who could keep him in check.
