Chapter 59

Naomi’s eyes widened in shock. Did she just

In that instant, Jack was transformed. It was as if she were looking at him through a filter. Somehow, he

looked extraordinarily handsome and charming!

Was it an illusion? Why was her heart beating so wildly?

“What’s wrong?”

Jack saw Naomi stiffen suddenly and wanted to approach her. Then, Naomi suddenly returned to her

senses and pushed his hand away.

“It’s nothing! Don’t touch my head so casually!”

Naomi’s voice was high-pitched with panic. She quickly looked away and made herself appear busy,

putting ingredients on the hotplate

Jack remained unbothered and retracted his hand. He rested his arm on the back of Naomi’s chair. He

touched his forehead with his other hand as he watched Naomi busy herself with the hotpot.

He could not understand his earlier actions. Why had he suddenly reached for her?

With her back facing Jack, Naomi took a few deep breaths. When she looked at him, his usual poker

face was back in place

It must have been an illusion! She was seeing things because she had not been sleeping well of late.

Convinced, Naomi turned her attention back to her food. She passed the cutlery to Jack and told him to

give it a try

“Try this! This is my special recipe. It’s super aromatic!”

“It’s just a slice of meat What’s there to brag about?”

Jack glanced sideways at the girl. He took the meat from her and tasted it. If Sean had been present he

would have been shocked by Jack’s actions. This neat-freak was actually eating using someone else’s

cutlery

* Hmph! You’ll know once you have tasted it!”

Naomi inched closer to observe Jack’s reaction to the food. “I swear you’ll love barbecue after trying this!

* she said with a face full of confidence

The warm light cast two shadows onto the wall. Their shadows’ heads were touching one another in

what appeared to be a moment of indescnbable intimacy

The man’s pained expression relaxed a little as he tasted the meat. Naomi noticed the subtle changes in

has expression at once!

“It’s tasty, isn’t ?” Naomi asked excitedly

She narrowed her eyes and observed him

“Mm it’s not bad

Jack’s lips twitched. He wanted to say something sarcastic but had quickly changed his mind. He

continued chewing on the meat and accepted the fact. It was tasty

“Seel II’s just as I told yout Anyone who has tried my special recipe will surely fall in love with barbecue

Naomi arrogantly arched her brows. She was very proud of her recipe.

Jack refused to let her win. He deliberately put down his cutlery and said indifferently, “It’s just some

meat.”

“You should try this!”

Naomi picked up her cutlery and up a slice of spicy beef. While Jack spoke, she took the chance stuffed

the meat into his mouth.

The way she forced the meat into his mouth brought back Jack’s long-standing memories. However,

before he could say anything, he was hit by the strong spices.

“Cough cough cough!!!”

Jack immediately coughed violently. It was so spicy that his entire face, from his neck to his ears, turned

a shade of red. Even his eyes were red.

“Woah… Are you alright? Hurry and cough it out!”

Naomi jumped in shock. She quickly reached for him in hopes of catching the offending piece of meat,

but he pushed her away and dashed to the toilet.

“Mister Daddy, is it an allergy? I study medicine. You can let me take a look!”

Naomi quickly followed him to the door.

Bam! He slammed the door so quickly that he almost hit her nose!

“-” Just as Naomi was about to explain herself, a special ringtone interrupted her.

“Attention, attention, special call!”

Jack’s phone on the table suddenly rang.

“Daddy, your phone is ringing.”

Naomi heard the word ‘special in the ringtone. She dared not leave the phone ringing and picked up the

phone. However, she accidentally pressed the answer button.

A pleasant feminine voice drifted through the speakers.

“Jacky, why are you only answering the phone now?”

Jacky?

Naomi pursed her lips upon hearing the girly voice addressing Jack so intimately. Her lips unconsciously

formed a sad frown.

“Jack, why aren’t you saying anything?” asked the girl after a period of long silence.

Naomi scratched her head awkwardly. She wanted to say something but she heard sounds coming from

the toilet

Jack came out of the toilet and happened to see Naomi with his phone. Not only did she have his phone

but she appeared to be in the middle of a call! Jack’s gloomy expression turned darker when he saw the

connected call.
