Chapter 732

“I want to savor some delicious food and take a break from work,” Marcus declared with conviction.

Millie overheard Marcus speaking to Derek.

“Please fill me in on my tasks for today. Once I’ve handled them, I’ll head home for a meal my wife has

prepared.”

Though taken aback, Millie found herself smiling.

“Well, I’ll hang up and let you get back to work now.”

After hanging up, she gathered her hair into a tie and moved the groceries to the kitchen.

Last night, Marcus had enthusiastically consumed three bowls of rice, savoring the delightful dishes

she’d prepared. She felt a sense of achievement when he relished her cooking.

Tonight, she planned a menu of beef brisket stew with potatoes, pork, spicy lobster, silvery pomfret fish,

soup, and vegetables.

After turing on the gas, she started to cook.

When Marcus arrived home, he was welcomed by the delicious scent of food. When he entered the

dining room, his eyes widened at the sumptuous spread on the table, and a genuine smile lit his face.

“Wash your hands, and let’s eat,” Millie said, setting the tableware and prompting him.

After washing his hands, Marcus took a seat. Millie waited for him before lifting her utensils.

As she reached for some food, she saw Marcus staring at her, his eyes glowing with appreciation.

Unsettled, she looked away.

“Don’t stare at me. Let’s eat,” Millie told him.

“Thank you for dinner,” Marcus replied, placing a piece of beef in Millie’s bowl.

As Millie savored the beef, he watched her with a focused gaze.

Though he had initially wanted to set a romantic red wine ambiance, he promptly dismissed the idea,

mindful of Millie’s special situation.

Millie’s culinary skills shone through in the succulent beef and the beautifully braised fish, balanced

with vegetables to offset any richness. All in all, it made for an impeccable dining experience.

Marcus finished his bowl of rice quickly.

“Hand me your bowl, and I’ll serve you some rice,” Millie offered.

Marcus passed the bowl to her, smiling at her as she refilled it.

“Here you go,” Millie said, returning the bowl. She noticed him smiling at her, making her feel self-

conscious. Thus, she adjusted her hair before continuing to eat.
