Chapter 362

“I got it.”

The call ended. Jefferson clenched his phone, sitting on the bed. Let me be selfish for this one time. I don’t want to let go of this happiness I fought so much to obtain.

After waking up, Rayna glanced at her phone. I can’t believe it’s almost noon. I must be a pig. Why am I such a sleepyhead?

Quickly washing up, she then went downstairs and smelled the fragrant scent of food. Jefferson was preparing lunch in the kitchen.

Rayna scratched her head and said awkwardly, “I don’t know how I managed to sleep till now. We agreed that I would cook today. Why didn’t you wake me up?”

“You rarely slept in. I couldn’t bear to disturb you,” Jefferson replied with a smile while wearing oven mitts, then placed the pot on the dining table. “I went to do the groceries just now and made venison soup.”

“The supermarket around here sells venison?” Rayna asked, surprised.

“No. I had to go to the market in the southern area to buy it.” Scooping a bowl of soup for her, Jefferson continued, “I heard venison soup is good for your health. This is my first time making this, so I don’t know how it tastes.”

“As long as you made it, it must be delicious. I know your cooking skills.” Rayna lifted her bowl and blew on the soup before taking a sip. Immediately, she gave Jefferson a thumbs up. “The soup is very nice!”

Jefferson’s eyes twinkled with joy.

As Rayna had a good appetite that day, she drank five bowls of venison soup and ate two servings of spaghetti. Worried that her stomach might burst from eating that much, Jefferson forcefully took away her cutleries.

After lunch, Rayna showed her phone to Jefferson excitedly. “I’m so lucky today! Robert sent me a message saying the medicine will be ready in a few days. This is so great!”

“Yes, I’m also looking forward to it.” Jefferson suppressed his disappointment and mustered a smile.

Rayna informed him she would be going to the hospital in the afternoon for a check–up, as she had a cold womb and her period would often come late.

However, this time, her period was late by too long. She had been working hard recently, so she was worried she would end up with a serious disorder.
