All Her Secrets

Initially, Catherine thought that Branden would be a terrible cook like Audrey. After all, considering the Duncans’ reputation, Branden probably didn’t even know the location of the kitchen of the Duncans’ since he was a child.

However, to Catherine’s surprise, not long after, a rich aroma wafted from the kitchen. It instantly aroused Catherine’s appetite.

She didn’t feel hungry before. Now, she caught a whiff of that aroma and immediately found herself struggling to suppress her hunger.

Though Catherine’s footsteps were barely audible, Branden still sensed them. He instinctively turned around and saw Catherine standing behind him.

Branden’s handsome face instantly softened, and his deep voice became more attractive as he asked, “What’s up?”

Catherine didn’t hesitate and bluntly stated her purpose. She said, “I’m hungry.”

He smiled and gently stared at Catherine with his dark eyes. “It’ll be ready in a moment. Go wait outside. It’s pretty smoky in here.”

Catherine considered offering to help, but now it seemed she wasn’t needed at all. Branden was true to his word. Catherine returned to her seat and messaged Ronin. She was preparing to play a game while waiting. Branden soon emerged with a plate of food.

“Come over and eat.”

Catherine approached the table with curiosity. There were meat and vegetarian dishes and a clear soup. The food emitted a rich aroma and looked very inviting.

Branden handed a fork to Catherine and raised an eyebrow in a gesture for her to dig in. Catherine didn’t hesitate and took a bite of the meat. The taste wasn’t mind -blowing, but it was definitely delicious.

It was a simple home-cooked meal that gave a warm feeling. After trying all the dishes, Catherine gave a high compliment. “Not bad.”

She then asked with curiosity, “Did you learn to cook?”
