My Reincarnated Wife Is A Little Too Sweet novel Chapter 42

Today being a Saturday, Amanda slept until she woke up naturally. They were not filming on weekends so they can take time to relax.

A smell of a delicious aroma wafted in her nose jolting her awake. 

Her stomach grumbled on the smell of food coming from the kitchen.

She woke up and went directly to the kitchen without even washing her face.

In the kitchen, Evelyne was skillfully frying some eggs for breakfast. 

"Mom, you don't look like someone who has just undergone a heart surgery. You are so full of energy. You even woke up early to make breakfast." Amanda said as she approached the kitchen.

"I have been lying down for a long time I feel like if I lie down anymore some mould would grow on my body." Evelyne said.

"Today is a weekend. You should sleep some more. You have worked hard. You need to rest so you can replenish your energy. I don't want you to grow old fast."

"I'm fine mom. I was woken by the aroma of food. Yesterday I was too tired that I did not eat well." Amanda said.

"Okay. Go and wash up. I'm almost done here."

After washing up, Amanda went to the kitchen to have breakfast with her mother.

Her mom had made a lot of food. There were eggs, bacon, sandwich, pancakes, waffles... name them.

Amanda felt her taste buds salivating before she even started to eat.

"Mom why did you make so much food. We are only the two of us." Amanda asked, puzzled. Looking at how much food her mom had made, she did not know what to say.

She knew her mom loved cooking. Amanda always ate untill she can't anymore, because the moment you place that egg omelette in your mouth, you will not get enough of it.

"I was just cooking randomly. I did not know that it will be too much." Her mom said.

"And we are not alone. There are bodyguards outside. We will invite them in so that we can eat together." Evelyne said.

Amanda slapped herself on the forehead. "How can I forget about them. My mind is muddled upon seeing good food." Amanda chuckled and went to call the bodyguards.

The moment she opened the door, she bumped into a hard and steady chest.

Her nose crunched in pain as it was almost broken from the impact.

She looked up and came into contact with dark mysterious eyes. They were looking at her with a gentle light.

"Why are you so careless." Richard said, holding Amanda in his arms.

"I'm not careless. I didn't know that I will bump into you at the door."

"I was going to knock but the door was opened from inside so I did not have time to. Where were you going?" Richard asked.

"I was going to call Felix and Charles so we can have breakfast together." Amanda said as she struggled to get out of his arms.

Richard released her. This was a hospital and her mother's ward. He could not hold her even if he wanted to.

"Ooh. So I came at the right time." Richard said, a smile hanging on his lips.

"Yes. Mom woke up early and made a lot of food. We cannot eat it all just the two of us."

"Amanda what took you so long?" Evelyne asked as she walked towards the door. She had also been waiting for a while but had not seen her.

When  she reached the door, she saw Richard. She could not help but smile.

"Richard is here too. Come in. We are just in time to have breakfast."

Richard smiled as he nodded his head. "Thank you auntie. I just rushed here and had not had breakfast yet."

"Come in. I made a lot of food. Amanda move a side so that Richard can come in. Why did you keep him waiting at the door."

Amanda moved away, embarrassed. They had been talking so she did not remember to welcome him in.
