Chapter 832: Chapter 832

Initially, Arnold was reluctant to open the door. But the person outside was knocking persistently and

patiently, never stopping.

Annoyed, Arnold sprang up from the bed, walked to the door with an

angry expression, and yanked the door open. “What’s the matter? You’re so noisy!”

To his surprise, Asher stood at the door in a suit and leather shoes, greeting him with a gentle smile.

“Mr. Larson, did you sleep well last night?”

“It’s alright, just a little lonely. After all, there is no one to cuddle with in bed.” Arnold’s words were all

self-indulgent, venting his anger at being kidnapped.

“Can I come in?” Asher asked.

Arnold pursed his lips and stepped aside, allowing him to enter. They walked to the living room, just

outside the bedroom.

Arnold was already treating the place as his own home, sprawling on the sofa. His fair legs crossed

and rested on the coffee table.

He glanced toward Asher, who was sitting upright. “What’s so urgent that you’re here so early in the

morning, cousin?”

It was only then that he noticed that there was a medical kit on the coffee table.

“I noticed you were injured yesterday, so I brought you some

medicine.”

Arnold raised his eyebrows slyly and leaned closer to him. “Have you ever heard of the saying that

there’s no such thing as a free lunch?”

Asher, feeling the tension, met Arnold’s gaze. “What are you trying to

say?”

“Are you here on Bella’s orders to deliberately please me, or are you

really concerned about the injury on my foot?” Arnold asked. His

voice did not match his feminine appearance, but it still carried a

seductive charm.

“You are Bella’s guest and also Aunt Mila’s nephew. This is the least I should do.” Asher lowered his

eyelids again.

“Hah! You really are the CEO of a big corporation. You know all the right things to say.”

Just then, a knock interrupted the moment.

Bella’s sweet voice came from outside. “Ash? Are you inside? Is Dr. Larson awake? I’ve made lunch.”

“Yes,” Asher responded, smiling faintly. “Are you hungry? Bella is an excellent cook. But there aren’t

many people that she would

personally cook for. Shall we go and have a taste of Bella’s cooking?”

Initially, Arnold wanted to refuse, but the growl from his stomach betrayed him.

“Forget it! Since I’m here, I might as well eat my fill first. Anything else can come afterward.”
