Chapter 404

On the day of departure, at the crack of dawn, Keen’s car was already waiting outside the mansion.

For Sandra, it wasn’t too early.

She hadn’t slept all night.

As Keen made his way upstairs, she was sitting by the window in her usual spot, gazing out blankly.

Even though it was still pitch black outside, she stared into the darkness.

“Ms. Smith,” Keen called out from the doorway.

Sandra slowly turned around. Upon seeing him, she stood up instantly, “Is it time to leave?”

“No rush,” Keen replied, “I’ve brought you some breakfast. Have something to eat first.”

Upon hearing this, Sandra sat back down, “I don’t feel like eating. Just let me know when it’s time to leave. I’m all packed.”

“Ms. Smith,” Keen sighed, “You should consider the baby inside you, even if you don’t feel like eating.”

Sandra was quiet for a moment, then stood up once again and walked out of the roorn.

The dining table outside was indeed set up with several foods, among them, a plate of ravioli, which Sandra recognized instantly.

She sat down a bit bewildered. Keen immediately served her the ravioli.

Sandra took a bite and the familiar taste instantly filled her mouth.

She was momentarily lost in thought, eating silently.

“Try the beef pie, Keen suggested, “They’re quite good.”

Sandra obediently picked up a piece of beef pie. The moment it entered her mouth, her eyes welled up with tears.

The ravioli and beef pies from Spoon Symphony were her absolute favorites, a preference known by very few.

Considering that Spoon Symphony was not open at this hour, yet Keen managed to bring these hot dishes, it was clear he had gone to great lengths.
