His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 70

She'd bought that brand once before, back when she and Jonathan had just gotten married.

But Jonathan hadn't taken a single sip, and after that, she never bought it again.

Niamh was pushing her cart down the grocery store aisle when she brushed past Jonathan and Marina.

"I can't even remember the last time you actually cooked for me," Marina teased, looping her arm through Jonathan's. "Tonight I'm going to eat to my heart's content."

Niamh stopped in her tracks.

Jonathan could cook?

She turned, watching their two figures disappear down the aisle—drawing closer to each other with every step.

So Jonathan could cook... and she'd never even known.

Niamh never would have imagined that after Marina was exposed for plagiarism, she'd end up rewarded—with a yacht trip, a promotion, a bonus, and Jonathan himself cooking her a homemade dinner.

Niamh had been planning to treat herself tonight, actually—after The Thomas Group had to recall their new product, which at least proved her innocence by implication, she'd thought she'd sauté an extra dish or two as a little celebration.

Slowly, she put the groceries back on the shelves, one by one, until all she bought in the end were two vegetable rolls for dinner.

Marina blinked, surprised. Jonathan caught himself.

For all three years of high school, he'd always called her "Rina." But just before graduation, Marina had suddenly asked him to stop and call her by her full name.

"Sorry, old habits," he said.
