Chapter 202 Do You Dislike Me?
The man’s words made Adele speechless.
She said that she wanted to call the police, which meant that she was just saying it. If she really let her do anything, she would not dare.
She broke away from the man and quickly walked to the back of the table. Her breathing was rapid and she stared at him with panic and vigilance. “You… Why are you looking for me?”
Didn’t he leave with Clara? Why did he suddenly come to find her? What exactly did he want?
Damon slightly raised his chin and leaned in front of the cabinet. His eyes were a bit lazy and casual as he looked at Adele from a distance.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Just now in the Ye family, Ye Fengpeng intentionally poured him wine. He drank some white and red wine, but now the wine strength came up again and again.
Glancing at the panicked Adele, he smiled and pulled his lips, “I came to find you. I have something to say.”
Looking at the man’s rare smiling expression, Adele felt a little surprised. Why did she feel that today Damon was so different in the peaceful days?
Even now, he was different from Damon when he was in the hospital in the morning. Was he drunk?
Just as Adele was about to speak, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Adele was stunned. He thought of Emily, who had just been pulled out, and hurriedly walked towards the door.
Seeing this, Damon reached out to block it, and his voice became a little deeper, “I’ll go,” he said.
As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the door.
Originally, he had specially instructed Ben to restrain Emily. He had something to say to Adele alone, but unexpectedly, in just two minutes, he returned.
“Kacha -”
The door was pushed open, and Damon stood at the door. His tall body almost blocked the entire door. When he saw the person outside, he was stunned for half a second.
It was the little brother who had just delivered takeout.
When the little brother saw Damon, he hesitated a little and said timidly, “Your… your takeout.”
Just now, he saw two men break into the room one by one, and the other pull people out. The two moved briskly, and he thought they were some lawless people.
He was so scared that he wanted to leave, but the takeout was not sent out. He dared not leave. He hesitated at the door for a long time before he dared to ring the doorbell again.
Damon’s eyes darkened. She glanced at him indifferently and reached out to take a large takeout box from his hand.
The door closed. Damon turned around expressionlessly and put the takeout box on the dining table.
Looking at the hot pot, Adele bit her lips. Her empty stomach felt a little uncomfortable.
She took a deep breath, looked up at Damon, and said word by word, “What’s the matter? Tell me quickly. I still have to wait for Emily to come back for dinner.”
She had been busy all morning, and then went to the hospital. Until now, she had not eaten. She had long been so hungry that her chest was stuck to her back. But now that Damon was here, if he did not leave, Emily would not be able to come back, and she had no way to eat.
As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach rang out twice in an untimely manner. It was not soft, and Damon, who stood on the other side, could hear it clearly.
The room suddenly quieted down. Adele was stunned, and her ears were a little red. She quickly opened her mouth to hide her embarrassment.
The man lowered his eyes and stared seriously at the takeout on the table. He paused and reached out his slender and beautiful hand to open the bag outside.
“What are you doing?” Adele was shocked and quickly asked.
It was the hot pot that she and Emily had chosen on the phone for a long time. The hotpot seasoning and boiled vegetables were separately packed. They only needed to set up a pot and they could start eating in three minutes.
“She won’t be coming back for a while. You should eat first.” Damon raised her eyebrows and calmly took out the boxes of ingredients.
Adele looked at the man’s smooth movements. Her jaw almost fell to the ground. He was clearly an intruder, but he was so calm that he seemed like a master. He even opened her and Emily’s take-out without hesitation!
She wanted to refuse, but when she smelled the aroma of the hotpot seasoning, she could not say a word.
On the table was the pot and induction cooker that Emily had prepared in advance. As soon as the switch was turned on, the seasoning was put in and water was added. Soon, the pot was boiling.
Looking at the steaming pot, Adele stood to the side, hesitating whether she should “betray” Emily to eat first. At this moment, Damon had already opened the boxes of ingredients and put them in.
Smelling the fragrance, her stomach began to cry out uncontrollably.
Damon casually rolled up her sleeves, looked up at the little woman who was staring at the hot pot hesitantly, and said lightly, “Come here.”
All the perseverance and entanglement were broken at this moment. After Adele repeated “sorry” to Emily three times in her heart, she still walked to the table and sat down.
If Emily came back and saw that she and Damon had eaten the hot pot together, he would not only blame her, right?
Thinking of this, Adele immediately felt a lot more at ease. She picked up her chopsticks and picked up the cooked food in the hot pot.
Damon raised his eyes and looked at the woman who had lowered her head. The corners of his lips unconsciously curved up.
For some reason, seeing her eat so well, he was actually a little hungry.
He did not eat much in the Ye Family just now. Instead, he was drunk by Ye Fengpeng. His stomach was empty and cold, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
Adele inadvertently looked up and saw that Damon was staring at the hot pot, but he had no intention of moving his chopsticks. From beginning to end, he just put the food in for her to eat. For a moment, she was a little embarrassed.
She hesitated for a moment and said, “Let’s eat a little together… I can’t finish it all by myself.”
After she finished speaking, she had an impulse to bite off her tongue. Logically speaking, she should have driven him out. Why did she invite him to eat hot pot with her?
When Damon heard this, he glanced at Adele. He hesitantly picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of seaweed knot.
In his impression, he had only eaten hotpot a few times. Compared to this kind of rich taste, he preferred light food.
He took a bite. The taste was not as hard to accept as he had imagined, but for him, this spiciness was really a little too much.
The tip of his tongue was hot and numb. Damon frowned slightly and looked up to see the little woman staring at him expectantly. “How is it? Is it very delicious?”
Enduring the spiciness, he said lightly, “It’s pretty good.”
As he spoke, he picked up the cup next to him and took a big gulp of water.
Before he could put the cup down, Adele’s expression had already changed. “That is… my cup of water!”
In an instant, the atmosphere sank a little. Damon lowered his eyes and glanced at the cup. Then, he put it down and said indifferently, “It’s fine. I don’t dislike you.”
The two of them had already done what they should and shouldn’t have done. They were just using the same cup. He wasn’t that unreasonable.
When Adele heard this, his face was about to turn green from anger.
What did he mean by not despising her? She even disliked him!
She clenched her chopsticks, but did not dare to have any objections in front of him, so she could only lower her head and eat.
Unknowingly, the three people’s hot pot had been killed by the two of them.
Adele put down her chopsticks in satisfaction. Looking at the empty take-out boxes beside her, she suddenly thought of how she would explain it if Emily came back later.
Could it be that she and Damon lived in harmony and had a hotpot together?
