Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 600

Ivy dumped some food onto his plate and shot him a withering glare.

"Just eat. And after I leave tomorrow, make sure you actually clean up around here. Stop turning the apartment into a pigsty and relying on takeout."

Toby shut up and buried his face in his bowl, shoveling the food into his mouth.

By this time, Alaric had finally coaxed the baby to sleep. He gently laid her in the bassinet before joining them in the dining area.

Toby had already finished eating. He set his silverware down and immediately offered his seat to Alaric.

"All yours, Alaric. I'm done. I'm going to go work on my practice tests."

Alaric simply pulled out a chair and sat down.

Taking a bite, he couldn't help but remark, "It's been a long time since I've had your cooking. It's as delicious as ever."

Ivy looked at him. "Haven't you been falling behind on a lot of work lately?"

He hadn't left her side in an entire month.

He was the boss of a massive corporation. Being completely absent from the office for a month definitely had to be causing problems.

Was it really worth it for this man to neglect everything just to stay out here for his daughter?

Ivy couldn't comprehend what was going on in his head.

"That job is nothing compared to my daughter. As long as she needs me, I'd happily give up working forever just to be with her."

He wasn't exactly hurting for cash, anyway.

Worst-case scenario, he'd just sell the company.

Ivy rolled her eyes inwardly.

If he didn't work, what was he going to eat? How would he pay for anything?

She certainly didn't make enough money to support a pampered billionaire who was used to the finer things in life.

Setting her own silverware down, Ivy stood up.

"Just leave your plate here when you're done. I'll do the dishes later."

She walked over to the bassinet to sit with the baby.

Alaric naturally wasn't going to let Ivy do the dishes.

After finishing his meal, he gathered everything and took it to the sink himself.

Hearing a chaotic symphony of clanking and banging, Ivy quickly rushed into the kitchen to take over.

"Let me do it. If you don't know how, stop trying to act tough."

"Who says I don't know how? It's just washing dishes. I've got this."
