Wrenna even got shocked by her own calmness at this moment.
She felt no single trace of anger or sorrow even when she was facing Stella's provocation. At that moment, she felt that she had evolved to a higher level.
With that, she felt somewhat amused.
It would be great if I were like this before.
Just then, she thought that she was naive and foolish before.
But as a matter of fact, she was still foolish now.
Wrenna let out a smile. When she got home in the evening, she was in such a good mood that she made dinner for herself.
But Damian did not come back as he was busy working.
After eating dinner, Wrenna started eating the fruits in a relaxed manner. Cora, who had just finished tidying the dining table, let out a smile. “Mrs. Quigley, I feel that you have not been so relaxed in a long while. It's been so long since you last cooked. It's a pity Mr. Quigley doesn't have the chance to taste your cooking.”
Wrenna responded with a smile, “Well. The food outside is also delicious. It's all the matter of fate, isn't it?”
“What?”
Is a simple dinner related to fate as well?
Cora shook her head while smiling, unable to comprehend Wrenna's words.
“By the way, Cora, please prepare some supper. Who knows, Damian would want to eat something when he's back. Don't forget the hangover remedy...”
“Haha. All right. You're so thoughtful. Mr. Quigley is lucky to have you. Or else he would be lonely.”
Wrenna smiled faintly. “He's still got you, hasn't he?”
“I'm not as attentive as you. You care for him in every detail.”
Seeing Wrenna did not respond, Cora continued to tease, “But you're busy recently. Mr. Quigley always sighs when he's having dinner. I bet he misses your cooking. Haha...”
Wrenna kept silent, recalling all the meals she had ever prepared for Damian. She was unable to count them all.
Taking out her phone, she started scrolling through the photos of food she posted on her social media account including all her cringy remarks. With that, Wrenna let out a smile.
How could I be so cringy before?
She was even tempted to delete all those messages.
But after hesitating for a while, she eventually signed out.
Standing up, she took the fruit plate to the study room and read her book.
As expected, Damian came back late. Cora immediately went to the door after she heard some noises.
“Mr. Quigley, are you back?”
Damian looked utterly exhausted. With that, Cora went right to the kitchen and brought out the supper and the hangover remedy.
“Mr. Quigley, Mrs. Quigley asked me to prepare these for you. Please have them before you go to rest.”
Damian's heart was filled with warmth instantly.
“Mrs. Quigley even prepared dinner herself tonight, but you missed the chance to taste them. Anyway, Mrs. Quigley isn't always so busy. Whenever you miss her cooking, you can tell her. You have a lifetime of the chance to eat her cooking. Haha...”
Upon hearing that, Damian's lips curled into a smile.
After eating supper, he went upstairs. By then, Wrenna was already asleep.
He took a shower in the guestroom and went back to their room. He noticed Wrenna's face was almost covered in the blanket, and he pulled the blanket slightly. Wrenna let out an unsatisfied groan, tossed around, and continued to sleep.
Damian chuckled while caressing her head gently. Then, he switched off the light and went to sleep.
When Wrenna woke up, Damian had just come back from jogging the following day.
He walked over to Wrenna and smiled. “I miss having your food.”
Huh?
Wrenna felt she could sense slight indignance in his tone.
“Oh... Why don't I prepare dinner again tonight?”
Damian nodded slightly and left.
With that, Wrenna got left in utter puzzlement.
Did he say that just for a meal?
Nonetheless, she figured since she had promised him, she would do just that.
Just then, she suddenly remembered that she had promised her dormmates to go to the music concert tonight.
It looks like I can't make it again.
Wrenna went to school after that. After the lessons ended, she apologized to her friends before leaving.
“I'm heading back to prepare dinner for Damian.”
“Wow!”
Dora showed a big reaction upon hearing that.
Wrenna furrowed her brows slightly. “Why?”
Dora let out a smile. “Nothing. I feel that you're still the old you. Hahaha. Go on and serve your Damian. We'll go to the concert ourselves. Who knows, we might run into some handsome guys...”
What? The old me?
Wrenna let out a laugh while shaking her head. “All right. I got to go.”
The moment she walked out of the dorm, she was still thinking.
Am I still the old me? I suppose not.
By the time Wrenna arrived at Jackdaws Mansion, Cora had already prepared the fresh ingredients for dinner.
