Chapter 457 The Act of Spoon-Feeding
Sonia rolled her eyes at Charles. “Look, do whatever you want to, but you’ll have to wait a bit if you insist on having dinner here because the chowder is off-limits.”
He pouted like a child. “Fine, I guess I’ll let him have the chowder, seeing as he risked death to save you and all that.”
“That’s more like it,” she said with a grin. “Now, sit down while I whip up a couple of dishes. It’ll only take a moment.”
“Okay.” Charles nodded and headed for the couch.
Sonia, on the other hand, wore her apron once more and returned to the kitchen where she resumed her cooking.
True to her words, it didn’t take long for the dishes to be done. They pulled their own chairs at the dining table and got ready to dig in.
He had only just picked up his utensils when he suddenly asked, “By the way, baby, I saw the suitcase next to the coffee table. Are you going on a trip?”
“Not exactly. I’m making a trip to my grandfather’s country house,” she answered after swallowing a mouthful of food.
With a curious gaze, he probed, “Well, what are you going there for?”
“To help my grandfather look for his journal.”
“Oh, is that it? Then, maybe I should go back with you,” he offered after taking a spoonful of one of the dishes.
Sonia eyed him with suspicion. “You don’t have to tag along.”
“Of course I do. I can be your driver. The muscles on your back have yet to heal and driving on your own would be torture; you’ll only return feeling worse. I’m offering my companionship as a matter of precaution and it’d also ease my worries,” Charles explained cheerily.
As though she was reminded of her injuries, she reached to feel her back. A gentle prod was all it took to make a sharp ache flare up on her back. She knew that there was no way she could make a three-hour drive down to the countryside and back to the city again; sitting down for hours on end would make her back shrivel up in pain. Besides, her driver had taken the next day off in light of his daughter’s birthday.
Since things were already at this stage, Sonia was left with no choice but to look for a new driver for her trip. “In that case, you can come along. We leave at 9:00AM tomorrow,” she said as she took a sip of soup.
