When Adele woke up, she had a slight headache.
She cried last night and couldn't fall asleep. Later, she fell asleep in a daze. She didn't know what time it was when she fell asleep.
She lay on the bed for a while, and then propped herself up and looked at the small sofa opposite her. There was nothing on the sofa, and she thought he really didn't come in to sleep yesterday.
Looking at the empty sofa, she was relieved, but at the same time, she was a little unspeakably depressed.
After looking at it for a while, she looked away and smiled, cursing herself in heart.
She washed up slowly, and then heard the noise outside by the door. Then she opened the door and went out.
There was no one outside. She didn't know if Leola had gone to the market.
There were several bowls and plates on the table, which were filled with porridge and dishes.
Without thinking too much, Adele sat down and began to eat. She barely ate some at noon yesterday, but she didn't eat anything in the evening because she saw Issac in the restaurant. After such a long time, she was very hungry.
She had only eaten a small half of breakfast when she heard the sound of the door opening. It seemed that the sound came from Leola's room.
Didn't Leola go out?
She turned her head with confusion. Two seconds later, she saw Isaac walking out.
Adele was stunned and opened her eyes wide.
She checked the time when she got up. It was about nine o'clock. Why hadn't he gone to work? He didn't go to the bedroom yesterday. Did he sleep in the study again?
After hesitating for two seconds, she choose to remain silent, turned around and continued to eat.
Isaac stood beside the dining table and asked her softly, "Are you used to eating here?"
Adele did not say a word, only buried her head and ate.
Isaac sighed lightly, "Do you want something more food?"
"You..."
Adele raised her head, "Mr. Bai, do you know that you're very annoying? Don't you know that we should keep silent while eating? What's wrong? Do you think you can disturb others at will because you're not eating?"
Isaac didn't say anything. He just pulled a chair and sat down next to her.
"Mr. Bai, can I trouble you to sit in the living room? Can't you sit on the sofa?" She thought for a moment and said, "I can't eat with you by my side."
"Do you have to talk to me like this?"
"What do you expect?" Adele laughed, "Do you want me to beg you to sit here? Or... do you want to feed me?"
Isaac raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's not impossible."
Adele paused for a moment, "Forget it. Even if you want to, I'm not willing. Mr. Bai, this is your house. I may not be able to ask you to leave here, but please don't talk, okay? I don't want to ruin my appetite because of you. It's not easy for Leola to cook so much food."
"Mm." Isaac nodded, "It's not easy for Leola to cook. What about me? Why don't you think I'm tired?"
Adele curled her lips and looked at Isaac's smiling face. She said sarcastically, "Are you tired? What did you do? You want to say that you're tired because you have to care about the feelings of both me and Chloe? Mr. Bai, you should understand that I didn't beg you to come here, nor did I beg you to let me live here. Even if you think it's hard, you... deserve it!"
"Is this what you think?"
Adele sneered, "Of course. Should I say that you're so nice to me while crying?" Bah! Don't even think about it!
She wanted to vent her anger and express her dissatisfaction, but she regretted it as soon as she roared at him.
Isaac was stunned. His face darkened a little, and there seemed to be a little sadness in his eyes.
This scene was getting more and more awkward.
Adele moved her lips. She wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.
Ha-ha, what should she say? Should she say that she roared at him because she was too excited and it was not her original intention? Or should she tell him that she was regretful?
Since she couldn't say like this, she'd better not speak! But... why did she feel so uncomfortable? Especially after seeing his expression, she felt as if she had done something evil.
The sadness in Isaac's eyes slowly faded away. After a few seconds, he smiled at her gently as if he didn't hear anything. He was generous, helpless and doting, as if she was a child who was losing her temper.
He picked up the chopsticks and handed them to her, "Your stomach is not very healthy, and you got up late today. Eat it."
She did not move and stared at the pair of chopsticks in front of her, lost in thought.
"If you have no appetite when I sit here, I'll just leave. Hurry up and eat." He raised the chopsticks again. His voice was very tender, and there was no anger in his tone.
However, the more he acted like this, the more grieved she felt.
She felt a little doleful in heart and she wanted to cry. At this time, if he got mad at her, she might feel better.
She thought about their past. At that time, he would never lose his temper at her. He would not even say a single harsh word to her. Other than... be asked her to abort her child indifferently three years ago.
If it weren't for that incident, he... Even if she had not contacted him for such a long time, she would feel that they had never been separated. She would still be the girl who loved him so much and he would still be Issac, the warm and gentle man who attracted her so much.
"Aren't you going to eat it? Do you really want me to feed you?"
