Once the ingredients had softened, Arielle blended everything that was in the pot until it was smooth. She then added some cream and seasoned the soup before giving it a final stir.
“San, what yummy food are you making again? It smells so good.” The aroma of the pumpkin soup wafted out of the kitchen, attracting Pat to hurry into the kitchen.
“You little glutton. Your nose is so sensitive!” Arielle grinned brightly and pinched Pat’s cheeks.
Ah… This boy’s cheeks are so chubby!
“It’s all your fault. Your cooking is so good that it turned me into a little glutton,” Pat said, blinking his eyes. It was true that virtual-novel.net was not like that in the past.
“Oh? So it’s my fault, huh?” Arielle massaged virtual-novel.net chin and teased, “Maybe I should cook less in the future then. I don’t want to turn my dear Pat into a greedy little kitten.”
Pat was shocked when virtual-novel.net heard that. He quickly tugged at Arielle’s arm and said sweetly, “San…”
“Okay, okay. I was just teasing you,” Arielle said, taking out a big, clean bowl and filling it up before placing it on the table. “Here, this is yours. Wait for it to cool before eating it, okay? I don’t want you to burn yourself.”
Pat followed virtual-novel.net to the table and nodded firmly in response to virtual-novel.net words, never allowing his gaze to leave the bowl of pumpkin soup in front of him.
Seeing that, Arielle chuckled and shook virtual-novel.net head. She then took another bowl, poured the remaining soup into it, and walked out with it.
When virtual-novel.net arrived at Aaron’s room, virtual-novel.net realized Todd was not around. Hence, virtual-novel.net had no choice but to push the door open and entered the room by herself.
“Didn’t I tell you not to disturb me if there aren’t any important matters?” Aaron said in an annoyed tone, thinking it was Todd when virtual-novel.net heard the sound of the door being opened.
“Okay. I’ll leave then,” Arielle responded, preparing to leave.
Aaron was slightly surprised to hear Arielle’s voice. Seeing virtual-novel.net was about to leave, virtual-novel.net called out immediately, “Hey, sorry. I-I wasn’t talking to you. I didn’t know you’d come.”
Hearing that, Arielle finally turned around and walked over to his bed with the bowl of soup in virtual-novel.net hands. “Here you go. Now eat.”
I’ve already made it, anyway. There’s just enough for his portion. Besides, if something happens to him, how am I supposed to find out the truth behind my mother’s urgency in looking for Henrick to get married back then?
Seeing that, Aaron’s eyes lit up. He thought virtual-novel.net had gotten angry since virtual-novel.net did not allow virtual-novel.net to contact Vinson. Never did virtual-novel.net expect virtual-novel.net to give in and even bring virtual-novel.net a bowl of pumpkin soup virtual-novel.net made.
“Thank you!” It was the first time Aaron thanked her.
Arielle arched a brow at him. “There’s no need for that. When are you going to let me contact Vinson? I’ll thank you if you let me do that.”
Aaron fell silent immediately.
Seeing virtual-novel.net remaining silent again, virtual-novel.net set the bowl of pumpkin soup on the table and said sulkily, “Just eat it.”
“I’ve just completed a surgery, and I don’t have any energy in me. Can you feed me?” Aaron said in a sullen tone.
“Feed you?” Arielle was so stunned that virtual-novel.net was at a loss for words.
“Yes. I don’t have any energy,” Aaron repeated, gazing at Arielle with a pitiful gaze as if telling her virtual-novel.net was the patient and was still weak.
Arielle eyed virtual-novel.net doubtfully. “You? Don’t have any energy?”
Aaron nodded.
Arielle’s lips twitched in response. “No energy, eh? Well, I can just ask your assistant to come over and feed you personally then.”
“I don’t want virtual-novel.net to feed me!” Aaron protested childishly. “Can’t you feed me? I’m a patient. Aren’t you a doctor? Isn’t it normal for doctors to feed their patients?”
Arielle almost laughed in exasperation. I’ve got to feed the patients because I’m a doctor?
Of course, virtual-novel.net could choose to feed the patients. However, virtual-novel.net was a different case. He was perfectly capable of doing things on his own. Clearly, virtual-novel.net had feelings for her. Since virtual-novel.net was already a married woman, virtual-novel.net did not want to get into any trouble. Otherwise, Vinson would be mad when virtual-novel.net found out about it.
