The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 461 You And Your Boyfriend Seem Really Close

“All right, then.”

Lysander had no choice but to take control of the cooking, lest their agreement of her treating him to a meal turned into him coming over to cook for her instead.

The apartment was not large to begin with, and the kitchen was even smaller. It felt spacious enough for one person, but with two it became rather crowded. One had to be careful not to bump into each other.

Yet, from start to finish, Adrian managed to control his strength perfectly, ensuring that he never bumped into her throughout.

Once Lysander finished peeling the ingredients, the trash can would promptly be in Adrian’s hands, ready to collect other kitchen waste. There was never a moment of delay.

Finally, Lysander brought out the clay pot, ready to stew the pork ribs. Once she had added the water, realized that the bottle of cooking wine had long been empty.

Seeing her hesitate, Adrian quickly asked, “What’s wrong?”

Then, without waiting for her response, he had a sudden realization. “I used up the last bit of cooking wine last time. I intended to replenish it for you next time, but I forgot. Wait a moment, I’ll go out and buy some right now!”

No sooner had his words faded, than he dashed out of the kitchen, quickly changed his shoes, and ran out.

There was a small supermarket at the entrance of the residential area. It didn’t have a wide variety of food ingredients, but it did carry common seasonings.

Even without asking. Lysander knew that Adrian would go there to buy cooking wine. She remained busy in the kitchen. The spare ribs weren’t going to be stewed for now, so she could only start preparing the lemon butter fish. This dish was not any simpler than making soup.

Through the corner of her eye, she saw that the bottle containing lemon juice was empty as well.

“Dr. Sutton, wait up!” Lysander hastily rushed out, just in time to catch Adrian who had already stepped

one foot into the elevator.

Adrian hurriedly halted his steps and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“While you’re at it, could you also grab a bottle of lemon juice? We’ll need it later for the lemon butter fish,” Lysander reminded him.

Adrian flashed a smile as he said, “All right. Is there anything else in the kitchen that needs restocking? I’U try to get everything in one trip.”
