Chapter 268 He Wants to Have Her

Jakson was very handsome. Especially when he restrained the hostility on his face, he stood out from the crowd.

Cynthia looked at him and was unimpressed. There were too many outstanding men around her. Alston’s face was impeccable. Lorenz was very handsome and noble. Lucien was bright and sunny. And Cain looked virile. She had seen a lot and formed an immunity to men’s faces.

“Is there anything else?” She looked calm, without a trace of shyness on her face.

Jakson was stunned for a moment. Then he gave a wry smile. People always said he had a good appearance. As long as he pulled off his straight face, girls would chase after him one after another. Now it seemed their opinion was not very accurate. At least Cynthia was unmoved!

“This medicine can’t be taken on an empty stomach. I haven’t eaten anything since this morning. I’m afraid it will lead to some adverse reactions!” He pointed to the medicine on the table and said in a low voice.

Cynthia nodded approvingly. She took out her mobile phone and said, “How about I order you a takeaway?”

Jakson looked at his bloody wound with a wry smile. Then he looked at her with a pitiful look. “No. I would have ordered it if I could. But I’m afraid the delivery man will be scared and call the police when he sees me like this.”

Cynthia was a little troubled. It was already eleven o’clock. If she didn’t go back, Greg and the others would worry about her.

“Please help me one more time. I remember I have some food in the refrigerator. Could you make a sandwich for me? Please! I will repay you when I recover.”

Jakson said in a pitiful tone. Cynthia let out a sign. “Alright!”

In fact, it wouldn’t take much time to make a sandwich.

Cynthia walked towards the kitchen. It was a large open room. The kitchen was designed in the style of a bar counter. All kitchen utensils were available, but they all looked brand new as if they had never been used.

Jakson said embarrassedly, “Although I can cook, I don’t have much time. So I barely use these after I bought them.”

Cynthia was not surprised. She knew he didn’t cook a lot by his appearance.

“Let me see what you have in the refrigerator. I hope you’re not picky about food.”

When she opened the refrigerator, it was empty as if it had been robbed. There were two eggs on the door and a handful of lettuce inside, which was a little wilted.

All of them could only make a sandwich.

With Jakson’s hint, Cynthia finally found several pieces of toast, two eggs, and a handful of wilted lettuce.

After thinking about it, she quickly heated up the toast and fried eggs in the pan.

In about ten minutes, a sandwich was ready.

She brought the sandwich to the table. As it was too hot, her fingertips were red. She stamped and pinched her ears, which made Jakson burst out laughing.

For many years, he had not smiled so happily. Since his mother died, no one had made him feel so warm.

“Here. Take it.” Cynthia hurried back to the kitchen again while saying this.

Jakson’s eyes were moistened by the sandwich in front of him. He couldn’t help but gulp down the sandwich. Although there were not many ingredients in it and it tasted very bland, the sense of hunger was quickly relieved.

He ate very quickly and finished it in a few minutes.

Then he leaned languidly on the sofa. His eyes were attracted by the woman being busy in the kitchen. This scene overlapped with his childhood memory.

He struggled to survive every day and seldom recalled the past. Looking back now, his previous memories were blurred. He only remembered when he was a child, his family was very poor. His mother was wearing apron and was busy around the kitchen all day long. He followed behind her and drooled over the prepared meals.

Since he became wealthy, many people scrambled to invite him for meals every day. He began to get tired of

those delicacies and didn’t have a good appetite no matter how delicious they were.
