The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2319

Mrs. Zoe washed her hands and wanted to go to the kitchen to cook.

She was happy today because Clayton was back. This family could finally be the same as before.

The two children went to take a bath. Clayton did not worry about them because they could take care of themselves, so he voluntarily went to the kitchen to help.

Seeing that his legs were injured, Mrs. Zoe smiled and asked him to go out.

“Sir, I’ll make whatever you want to eat. You should rest outside.”

Clayton smiled. His face was relaxed, and his voice was deep and pleasant.

“It’s okay. You can cook your meal and the children’s meal. I’ll cook mine and Nicole’s.”

Mrs. Zoe paused and immediately understood what he wanted to do.

“Okay. Mr. Sloan. When you weren’t around, something just seemed missing at home. Even though everyone acted the same as before, it felt different, especially Madam. She seldom even talked. We all thought you were dead, and we could all tell that she was very sad. But she never cried in front of the children, and she never told them that you met with an accident. Looking at it now, I guess you two really have a special connection. It was all just a false alarm, and you survived a catastrophe. You definitely will have good luck from now on!”

Mrs. Zoe’s words stunned Clayton. He felt like someone had punched him in the chest, and he had no choice but to accept it silently.

Everyone knew Nicole was having a hard time.

Only he was ignoring her pain.

How despicable!

After a long time, Clayton finally reacted.

“I hope so.”

His voice was deep and hoarse.

Mrs. Zoe made a healthy and delicious meal for the children.

Clayton and Nicole’s meal was simple. It was spinach and tuna pasta, which was Nicole’s favorite supper.

Nicole smelled the aroma of the food and woke up.

Although her whole body was sore and limp, she was starving.

She did not eat when she left the hospital in the morning or when she went to see Hamilton off at noon.

She had been starving all day!

When she opened her eyelids, the room was dark except for a wall lamp. She could also hear the deliberately lowered voices outside.

Nicole thought that she was dreaming.

What happened in the afternoon flooded into her mind, and it felt so unreal.

The soreness of her body reminded her that all of this was real.

Clayton came back and slept with her.

Nicole’s face turned red. She sat up and found that her body was clean. Her clothes had also been changed.

She felt shy before she suddenly realized something. She rolled up her sleeves and saw the random pink scars on her arm. The blush on her face disappeared completely.

Nicole was afraid that Clayton noticed her scars.

Did he find out?

The nightgown she was wearing was a long-sleeved silk nightgown with wide sleeves on the arms, like a robe.

Nicole instantly felt embarrassed and flustered.

Thus, she climbed down from the bed and walked over with bare feet to open the door. When she saw the light in the living room, she was startled for a moment.

Chatty was playing games with Fischer in the living room.

Mrs. Zoe was not there. Nicole smelled the aroma of the food and saw the tall and lean figure of her husband in the kitchen.

All of this felt surreal.

Seeing him come out with a plate in one hand and a cane in the other, Nicole felt her chest tighten. She was distressed.

This was not a dream.

Clayton came and did not leave.

The distance and rift between them seemed to disappear in an instant.

It seemed like they had returned to the way their lives were before the earthquake.

He was always with her.

When Clayton came out of the kitchen, he also saw her. He was a little stunned, then he flashed a gentle and bright smile.

“You’re awake?”

Under Nicole’s gaze, Clayton put the food on the dining table and limped over to her.
