Chapter 166

Kieran glanced back at Julie, figuring she had something important to say since she was holding onto him so intently. But to his surprise, before Julie could even open her mouth, a strange sound echoed from her stomach.

If he wasn’t mistaken, it was…

“Sorry, I didn’t eat anything at the party…” And to make things worse, she hadn’t eaten enough at lunch because Kieran had suddenly shown up in the cafeteria, so…

Her hunger was totally justified.

Seeing Julie’s innocent expression, Kieran couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless.

Getting up, Kieran started walking towards the villa without holding Julie’s hand. Whatever Julie had intended to say was forgotten. She stood there, staring blankly at the gravestone before finally shifting her gaze to Kieran’s retreating back.

He turned around and asked her, “Why, do you need me to carry you?”

Julie followed Kieran into the villa.

“Your rooms are ready” Helga said, looking at Julie and Kieran as they returned.

Kieran nodded, telling her, “You should get some sleep.”

Respectfully, Helga nodded at Julie and Kieran before heading to her own bedroom.

Just as Julie was about to check what food was available in the refrigerator, Kieran beat her to it. He glanced at the food inside and asked Julie, “What do you feel like eating?”

“I’ll make something myself,” Julie said, pointing to the beef and tomatoes in the fridge.

With practiced ease, Kieran took out the beef and tomatoes, then suggested, “How about spaghetti with tomato and beef sauce?”

While Kieran hadn’t burnt down the kitchen the last time, Julie still had her doubts about his cooking skills. Her expression was skeptical.

Under Julie’s doubtful gaze, Kieran placed the beef and tomatoes on the counter, “Let me try and see if I can make something you like.”

“I can take care of my own stomach, thank you very much.”

Standing so close to each other, Julie had to look up at the towering Kieran.

He looked down at the woman beside him, saying seriously, “I can definitely make spaghetti with tomato and beef sauce.”

“But…”

Before Julie could say anything else, Kieran suddenly pulled her into his arms, lifting her onto the counter. The sudden change took. Julie by surprise. Instinctively, she gripped his shoulders.

He had her sitting on the counter, his hands on either side of her, trapping her in his arms. Then he sighed dramatically, “Why do you only grow boobs and not height?”

Being so close, Kieran’s breath tickled Julie’s ear.
