Standing Before Love (Myra and Sean) novel Chapter 691

Hearing that, Heather forced a smile. Of course, she wouldn’t buy Leon’s words—he must have been dawdling out there.

“This is too much! She wouldn’t be able to finish it.” Matthias was disturbed hearing Leon’s words. Since when is he so good at pleasing Heather?

Leon grinned. “It’s okay to waste. Just throw it away if you can’t finish it.”

Seeing Leon’s cheeky face, Matthias suspected Leon and Heather were keeping something from him as he felt the atmosphere between the two had changed.

Initially, Heather was feeling a little hungry, but she had instantly lost her appetite when she saw Leon bring in so much food.

“I’m already full just by seeing these,” Heather said in a disgusted manner.

Leon feigned a sad look. Any other girl would be touched but only Heather would take his kind intention for granted.

“Have some porridge.” Matthias took a bowl of porridge. Porridge would be more suitable for Heather because it was friendly to one’s stomach.

However, Heather shook her head. “I don’t want porridge. I want to have some meat,” she said in dissatisfaction. Did Matthias really think she wanted porridge after starving for so long?

“No can do. Have some porridge to warm up your stomach first.” Matthias put on a stern face at once. He knew he couldn’t be too kind to Heather—she didn’t even acknowledge herself as a patient.

“Leon, I’d like to have some meat.” Heather turned to look at Leon, thinking that she could only rely on Leon now since Matthias was being so unreasonable.

“I agree with Matthias, Heather. It’s better for you to have some porridge.” This time, Leon sided with Matthias firmly.

Matthias put on a victorious smile, which made Heather even more annoyed that she lost her appetite all the more.

“I have no appetite and don’t feel like eating anything.” At this moment, Heather was as stubborn as a kid and was difficult to deal with.

“You must eat some since there are still a few examinations you need to go for. You need the energy to walk around,” Matthias exhorted as he had already studied the examination schedule provided by the doctor.

“I can go for the examinations with an empty stomach. I shouldn’t eat too much now anyway,” Heather refuted.

“The examinations which require you to have an empty stomach have been completed yesterday. You should eat before you go for the examinations today.” Matthias was like a stern parent as he wouldn’t even give Heather any chance to bargain.

As such, Heather gave up on arguing with Matthias. Jerking her nose, she reluctantly took over the plain porridge from Matthias. Oh Leon, you indeed have good taste, buying plain porridge which has no taste at all.

On the other hand, the feeling of being a third-wheeler grew stronger as Leon watched the interaction between Heather and Matthias from the side. Heather’s proposal yesterday to marry him must be a joke!

Under Matthias’s stern gaze, Heather forced herself to eat the plain porridge which was tasteless. After finishing half of it, she put the bowl of porridge on the table and refused to eat anymore.

“Have some snacks.” Matthias had already prepared them for Heather in advance.

Although the porridge wasn’t filling, Heather had gobbled a bowl in one go, so she was feeling a little bloated and wasn’t interested in having snacks.

“I’m full.” Heather didn’t feel like eating anymore. Moreover, she had lost her appetite even more having two men staring at her without eating.

“Porridge is not filling. Have some more snacks,” Matthias cooed in a gentle tone as if he was placating a child.

“You guys can have it. I’m full,” Heather emphasized again. It was true that she didn’t have much appetite even though her stomach was growling before Leon brought the breakfast over.

Seeing Matthias persistently stand beside Heather with a determined look, Leon thought Matthias and Heather were indeed the same kind of people—both of them were equally stubborn.

If the two of them really get together, they might face lots of conflicts in the future. Leon’s thoughts ran wild. Seeing how persistent Matthias was, Heather didn’t want to go against Matthias, so she took over the snack from him.

Heather didn’t like how stubborn Matthias was. Nonetheless, she reckoned no one else would dare to be this stubborn when faced with her. To think about it, it was actually a good thing that Matthias was able to control her.

Meanwhile, Leon decided to stop being bothered about them and started lowering his head to eat his food. Matthias was actually impressed at Leon’s good appetite because the latter was having fried noodles early in the morning. What was even more surprising was that Leon had bought steak.

The steak was served together with the fried noodles. Matthias had never seen someone eat steak with fried noodles before. After all, he himself preferred to have a light breakfast instead.

The ward was so quiet that there was only the sound of chewing. Unlike Leon who was cramming down the food, Matthias ate elegantly while Heather ate reluctantly.

The atmosphere in the ward was filled with the aroma of food. The room became warmer compared to it being ice cold not long ago. The three of them savored their breakfast quietly. After slowly finishing a piece of snack, Heather put the snack box on the table beside her.
