Snare of Love novel Chapter 788

When Armand came in after finishing cooking, he saw Theresa teasing the fishes as soon as he opened the door. He noticed her smile, which he hadn’t seen for a long time.

He wondered when he had seen her smiling last time.

It seemed to be centuries ago.

He wasn’t willing to break the rare silence, so he leaned against the door and watched her silently.

After a while, when Theresa saw him, he strode over.

Theresa asked, “How did you find this place?”

Armand answered, “There are a lot of house hunting apps nowadays. As long as I’m willing to pay, I can find a good apartment.”

Theresa understood. Although this was a small apartment, not as big as his house, it was quieter. She also felt quite cozy when staying here. When she was home, she even had to be careful when speaking, afraid of pissing Elizabeth.

If she continued to stay home, Theresa was afraid that she would be suffered from depression soon.

She stood up from the hanging chair. Since she was sitting there for a long time, her right leg went numb. She almost lost her balance and fell on the floor. Armand acted quickly and held her.

Theresa looked up, only to find that he was looking at her. He whispered, “Are you alright?”

She shook her head and said, “I’m fine. My leg went numb after I’ve sat for so long.”

Armand lifted her and carried her in his arms. Theresa struggled. He held her more tightly. “Stay still. Let me hold you for a while. It’s been a long time.”

He looked down at her and continued, “You’ve lost so much weight.”

Theresa gently curled up her lips into a smile. “Am I thin?”

“Of course.”

Armand put her on the chair next to the table, on which there were three light dishes - stir-fried green vegetable, stewed eggs and tofu with shrimps, and the seaweed soup.

Theresa looked at the dishes on the table in disbelief. “Did you cook them all?”

Armand said, “I didn’t lie to you. I’ll cook for you every day from now on. How can I deceive you?”

Picking up a spoon, he got some tofu and put it in her bowl. He said, “I used to cook for myself before. Later, I stopped.”

He was the only man who could cook among Boyce, Matthew, and himself.

Theresa picked up the spoon and tasted the tofu. It wasn’t as delicious as the dishes cooked by the chefs in the restaurants.

However, for her, she could only eat such light dishes right now. In the past month, her mouth was fulfilled with bitterness.

Armand said, “Let’s go out after lunch.”

Theresa asked, “Where are we going?”

“To my law firm,” Armand answered. “In the past few weeks, you were always at home or in the hospital. It’s time to meet others. Just take it as a relaxing method.”

Theresa thought for a moment. Even if she wouldn’t go out with him, she would stay home sleeping. She’d rather go out for some fresh air. Hence, she agreed and said, “Okay.”

After lunch, Armand did the dishes. Then he found her an outfit.

Theresa said, “I like what I’m wearing now.”

She checked on her clothes and found it was all right.

Armand took a new dress out of the cabinet and asked her to put it on.

He wanted her to be delighted in this way.

Theresa took the dress over and said, “Will I be delighted after putting on a new dress?”
