Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 623: Mother’s Cooking 

Helen’s POV: 

While my mother was taking a nap, I sat on the desk next to the bed and turned on my laptop to process some work documents.

After having a power nap, she woke up.I told her to sleep some more, but she just waved her hand in dismissal and said that she didn’t feel sleepy anymore.Thus, I conceded and took her to a nearby supermarket to shop.

The supermarket was quite close to my apartment.

My mother and I used to come here to shop whenever we needed something.

Unfortunately, she fell ill later on and had been confined in the hospital.

Since I was too busy to go shopping, I came here less and less as time passed by.

Along the way, I held my mother’s hand.

It felt so damn good to have her by my side again! It felt like I was filled with so much strength all over again.

We finished shopping quickly and went home.

As soon as we got home, my mother prepared dinner.I knew nothing about cooking, so I couldn’t do anything to help her.I just stood at the kitchen door, watching her get busy.

"Helen, you need to eat less junk food and take out food from now on.They’re not as healthy and sanitary as home cooked meals,"

Mom mumbled while she was handling ingredients.

"I’ll cook weekday meals for you every weekend from now on.You can heat them up after work.I’ll come here again next weekend to cook more delicious food for you, okay?"
