Chapter 533: A subject
Aphrodite woke up that morning, feeling extra better.
Actually, she wanted to leave Grey's house in the meantime because of a lot of things. It looked as though Grey was trying not to be concerned with Avery even though he was. And Avery saw nothing bad in it.
And the fact that Avery was in a critical condition made her feel bad. She needed Grey by her side.
She got dressed in black long trousers and a white chiffon top. She added a little powder to her face, and a little red lipstick before she walked out of the room.
Grey was in the kitchen as if she had already discussed the time she was leaving with him.
Though she said she was leaving the next morning, she never mentioned the time.
"Cooking?" Aphrodite muttered from behind, a wide smile on her face.
Grey laughed. "I decided to make something for you to eat. I figured out you came out later on for your cakes. Did you enjoy it?"
Aphrodite pursed her lips together as if thinking about the question. Her face was held in a straight face, yet so beautiful.
Grey regarded her for a moment and smiled with satisfaction. Novia was indeed the type of woman she wanted.
"Yes!" She said suddenly and the face broke into a nice smile. "You know you cook so well."
"Oh, seriously?" Grey laughed.
"Oh damn! You know you don't need me to acknowledge that. It's an open book!" She stressed out the words.
Grey turned to look at her. "How about waffles and pancakes?"
Aphrodite smiled softly. "Your combo is totally different but I have mine," she said seductively as she reached for his apron. "I could actually give you a special delicacy," she whispered as her hand finally pulled down the apron, and was already unbuttoning his shirt.
Grey grinned. "Fuck, Novia. I'm cooking and we are in the kitchen."
Aphrodite smiled and moved her mouth to his right ear. "What did they say about a meal better when served hot? It's actually going to taste better."
Grey smiled mischievously as he pulled Novia onto one of the cabinets." You do know that two can play the game, Novia?"
Aphrodite laughed. "I know you are crazy about me."
Grey laughed as well. "You know I am?"
They both burst into another round of laughter.
They kissed briefly.
"Damn, your lips taste like waffles," Aphrodite laughed.
Grey opened his mouth to say something but his phone rang, interrupting him.
Aphrodite pulled away reluctantly. "Damn, that ruined my mood already," she laughed and started walking away.
"Get ready to eat. The food is ready. I will just set everything."
"Alright, let me grab my bag," Aphrodite muttered as she finally walked out of the room.
Grey grabbed his phone and realised it was Linda. He hadn't even thought about her for so long.
The phone stopped ringing before he could pick it up. But it started ringing almost immediately.
Grey picked it up this time.
"Hello, Linda."
"Oh my!" Linda yelled with excitement. "I'm so happy you are back, Grey. You definitely don't know how happy we are to hear about this. I mean I and Emily," she explained.
Grey smiled. "I'm so sorry I didn't message or call you all this while.
Besides, I recently came back to Jacksonville and I haven't really settled down."
