Chapter 805 Shall I Feed You?
Chapter 805 Shall I Feed You?
The next morning, when Louis came downstairs, he immediately heard Vivian's happy voice.
"Mummy, do you think Daddy will like the cake I made?"
"He definitely will," Jane said with a smile as she wiped flour off Vivian's face.
Upon hearing this, Vivian's big eyes lit up and she happily exclaimed, "Then I'll have Daddy guess what kind of cake I made later!" "Okay," Jane replied with a smile as she continued to make sandwiches.
The mother and daughter had gone to the nearby supermarket early in the morning with the villa's housekeeper to buy ingredients.
Jane had cooked for Louis before and knew his taste preferences. She thought that since Louis had done so much for her without asking for anything in return, all she could do was something within her power.
She knew that Louis suffered from stomach problems, so she bought oatmeal to make for him every day and take care of his health. As for the cake that Vivian was making now, it was just a spur-of-the- moment idea from her daughter who wanted to give a gift to her daddy and show appreciation.
While Vivian and Jane were talking, Louis waited upstairs before coming down deliberately after some time passed. When he finally did come down stairs he seemed completely unaware of their conversation earlier and asked curiously, "What are you guys doing?"
Just as he finished speaking, Vivian suddenly appeared beside him, holding out a plate of cake and saying, "Daddy, this is my gift for you."
Louis looked surprised at Vivian, then pointed at himself questioningly, "A gift for me?"
Vivian nodded seriously, then smiled sweetly, saying, "Daddy, you've been taking care of me and Mommy during this time, so I specially made this cake as a thank-you present."
"Thank you, Vivian." Louis softened his heart, moved by Vivian's gesture, and reached out to pat her head gently.
Vivian giggled happily but then suddenly pointed at an animal on top of the cake, eagerly asking, "Daddy, is my creation cute?"
Louis carefully observed it before giving detailed comments on its appearance, "Well, Vivian is great. This lifelike little dog you made is so adorable. I thought it was a real puppy."
As soon as the man finished speaking, he saw the little girl standing in front of him with a slightly darkened face.
He furrowed his brows slightly and looked at Jane in confusion, only to see her trying hard to suppress a smile on her face.
Louis didn't get an answer from Jane, and finally his gaze fell back to Vivian, who was standing in front of him.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Vivian pouted and stared at Louis in discontent.
"Daddy, this is a teddy bear, not a dog!"
The man, upon hearing these words, immediately felt embarrassed and awkward. He awkwardly touched his nose and didn't know what to say for a moment.
After Vivian angrily uttered these words, she turned around and left the dining room.
Louis let out a helpless sigh and looked towards Jane for help.
"Jane, what should we do now?"
Jane shrugged with schadenfreude, "It's your own fault, so why are you asking me what to do?"
The man furrowed his eyebrows and unconsciously tightened the hand resting at his side.
The next moment, he suddenly took a step towards Jane, and held her waist tightly, bringing her close to him.
"Aren't you planning on helping me out?"
The man's deep and alluring voice made Jane's ears turn red.
Soon, blushes appeared on Jane's cheeks.
Seeing his beloved woman's flushed face, Louis curled his lips, bent down and kissed her on the lips.
"This is the price of your schadenfreude."
After saying these words, he turned around and left the dining room, leisurely walking in the direction where the little guy had just run away.
Later on, Vivian was appeased by Louis, but Jane didn't know exactly how he did it.
In the following days, the family of three lived in the villa, and Jane's daily life was peaceful and happy.
On that night, Louis was so busy dealing with some important events about the Z Country royal family that he didn't even have time to eat dinner.
After Jane found out, she let Vivian play by herself and then took the dinner to the study alone.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Louis, sitting at his desk, rubbed his temples with a headache when there was a knock on the door After collecting himself, he looked towards the door with impatience and said coldly, "Get lost." Jane was slightly stunned for a moment, then parted her lips and spoke, "It's me."
She could feel the person sitting in the study room clearly hesitating when he heard her voice.
The next second, the man's tone softened slightly as he spoke again, "Come in."
His deep voice carried some weariness and more helplessness.
Jane pursed her lips and pushed open the door to enter. Inside the study room, the man sat on a chair with his handsome face filled with exhaustion. His fingers were resting casually on the armrests of his chair as he silently looked at Jane standing at the doorway. His aura left Jane momentarily stunned.
Quickly regaining her senses, she walked straight into his room carrying dinner in hand.
"You haven't eaten dinner," she stated matter-of-factly.
"I'm not hungry," Louis replied in a low voice while standing by his desk.
Jane frowned unhappily upon hearing this response.
"You didn't eat lunch either," she pointed out.
How could someone not be hungry if they hadn't eaten lunch or dinner? Her eyes showed obvious concern for him.
Louis seemed to sense this concern too; any impatience that had been present earlier disappeared without a trace.
"Alright then, I'll eat," he said finally.
Jane looked much better upon hearing it.
She hadn't missed how tired Louis appeared, but to her, food is essential and one cannot function properly without it, so even if Louis was busy, there should be no excuse for skipping meals. After several moments of silence passed between them, Jane suddenly spoke up again, "Or do you want me to feed you?"
Upon hearing those words from Jane, Louis' narrow eyes darkened considerably as they shifted over towards where she stood before settling on her form completely. Her fatigue appeared delicate like snowflakes falling gently during winter nights; light yet transparent enough that one couldn't resist leaving their own mark upon it.
He hooked one corner of his mouth upwards while staring meaningfully at Jane who stood before him now.
These past few days she had been sleeping beside Vivian instead of him.
Since he didn't want to burden her mentally, he patiently waited until now when things seemed different... was this what she meant? That they could take another step closer together? Soon, Jane felt the aggressiveness in the man's eyes.
She took a step back in a fluster, and just as she was thinking about how to explain it to Louis, she found that the man's eyes were even deeper. Those blue eyes, like clear seawater, made her swoon.
In the next second, she was suddenly yanked by the man, and her whole body was suddenly tilted over Louis' long and sturdy legs.
Her one hand was quickly grabbed by the man, her other hand was free, but she was so panicked that she didn't know how to put her hand.
Louis exuded a chilly aura that caused Jane's heart to race involuntarily.
She pursed her lips and tried to use her hand to support herself to get up from Louis when the man suddenly leaned in.
"Didn't you mean that just now? What did you mean then?"
"I..."
