Master Odell’s Secret Ex-wife novel Chapter 2031

Chapter 2031

There was a still look in Roland's eyes as he looked at Isabel.

Isabel withdrew her hand and approached the sink. She turned on the faucet and doused her hand in cold water with her back facing Roland.

There was a mirror in front of the sink, so she caught a brief hint of Roland’s reflection in it.

While washing her hands, she subtly inspected his reflection in the mirror. She saw Roland staring at her from behind for several seconds before he went to pour the contents of the pot into a bowl. His movements were practiced and graceful.

Isabel snuck another look at his face.

He seemed very focused on his task and did not seem to be thinking about anything else. He probably did not think much of it when she grazed her fingers against his palms.

With that, she heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen.

Roland had already set the food on the table and had sat down. When he noticed Isabel stepping out of the kitchen, he asked in concern, "Is your hand okay?"

"Much better." Isabel waved her hands in front of him to show him. The smooth, pink tips of her fingers seem to glisten underneath the ceiling lights.

When Roland pursed his lips and gulped, the bulb in his throat moved up and down.

Isabel seemed to not have noticed anything as she sat down and started to eat.

Upon seeing this, Roland began to dig in as well.

After finishing the food, Isabel contentedly set aside her spoon and fork before turning to him "Roland, I might have to stay with you for a few more days."

Roland looked at her.

She clarified, "It's not that I want to overstay my welcome, but your mom went out of her way and bought me a ton of daily necessities. I'd feel bad if I didn't respond kindly to her gestures.

Besides, it would be a shame to say no to a chance to eat such delicacies every day. Furthermore, she was reluctant to move back to her place so long as Decker lived next door.

She looked at Roland with a sincere look in her eyes.

Roland looked at her calmly and merely grunted, "Hm."

Then, he continued eating. It seemed like he was hardly bothered by Isabel staying over for several days longer.
