Chapter 541 Probably not be believed

Douglas' words made Martha's whole body freeze.

She was completely unsure whether the meaning of this sentence was what she thought.

For Martha, Douglas at this moment made her very at a loss. For a moment, she didn't even know whether she should be presumptuous and think in a bold direction. She wanted it, but didn't dare.

The spoon stirred the rice in the bowl into a mess. Martha took a deep breath, then raised her eyes again and looked at Douglas.

She said, "Mr. Torres, let's eat first. The food is getting cold."

Douglas saw her fleeing and didn't force her.

He picked up a piece of beef and tasted it. Sure enough, the dish was not only very good in appearance, but also tasted first-class.

Douglas said, "If I knew you had such a good cooking skill, I would have let you show it earlier."

Martha said, "Do you still feel that I came to you on purpose to compete with you?"

"I lost," Douglas said. "You hid deep enough to tell me now that you have the skills."

As Martha heard this, she became tensed instantly.

Looking at Douglas a little helplessly, she asked, "Mr. Torres, are you blaming me?"

It was wrong for Martha to conceal, whether it was concealing her identity or her cooking skills.

So, whether people said she was sensitive or hypocritical, she really thought a lot because of Douglas' words.

For a moment, there was some tension on her expression.

Douglas looked at her expression and sighed secretly in his heart.

After all, in the past seven years, she did suppress herself, so that she was so sensitive after being known by him. Douglas never wanted to hurt Martha, but in this situation, it seemed that no matter what he said or did, he was hurting her. This feeling was very bad. At least in Douglas' opinion, he didn't want to have so many scruples about talking with Martha.

Douglas said, "I don't mean anything else. Don't think too much about it."

Martha nodded and said, "I know."

Although that was what she said, who knew if she will think too much?

Douglas was very helpless, but in the end he couldn't bear to be tough on her.

He said, "Okay, if you don't eat anymore, it will really be cold, and your good cooking skills will be wasted."

Martha nodded, and didn't say anything else, but suppressed her emotions.

Neither of them said anything more, but focused on eating.

Douglas was very face-saving, and ate two-thirds of the ten dishes on the table.

Martha was really very happy that Douglas was satisfied with those dishes. In an instant, all her emotions were gone.

Now, she was only full of happiness and moved.

Douglas put down the fork, looked at an empty plate, and said, "How about it? Enough to support your cause."

"Thank you, Mr. Torres," said Martha, not hiding her happiness at all.

She stood up and said, "I'm going to tidy up. Mr. Torres, you can rest."

Douglas also stood up and said, "You have made so many dishes, but I have to ask you to tidy it up. Am I being too inconsiderate?" Martha was a little dazed, looked at Douglas, but was held by his hand. She walked to the living room, and pressed on the sofa. Douglas said, "Sit here and wait for me. When I get tidied up, let's go for a walk."

He really needed to move and digest properly.

His stretched stomach was already making him very uncomfortable.

If he didn't digest it, his stomach might explode.

Martha sat on the sofa obediently. In fact, she really wanted to help. However, Douglas asked her to sit, so she sat obediently.

Douglas rubbed Martha's head and went back to the dining room to clear the dishes.

Martha was fairly surprised to hear the sound of running water coming from the kitchen.

Although they had eaten at home before, it was just a matter of cooking a bowl of noodles, and the tableware was particularly easy to clean.

Today, there were ten dishes. Plus the cleaning of the bowls used by the two of them was a very consuming.

It was a very special thing for Martha that Douglas was willing to do this.

She had seen a lot of men who bossed her around and thought that these things were what women should do, and men just cared about nothing.

If it happened to that kind of people who was willing to do it and totally accept it, but, Martha believed that the vast majority of women were not willing to it.

Therefore, under such a premise, it was very precious to her that Douglas can do this.

Douglas was washing dishes in the kitchen, and wiped the very clean stove that Martha had cleaned up. Then he came out with the kitchen waste and said, "Let's go. Let's go for a walk." Martha stood up and followed Douglas without a moment's hesitation.

Douglas' mouth curled up as he watched her rush towards him.

He reached out and stopped in front of Martha.

This action made Martha startled, then looked at him suspiciously, and asked, "Do you want something?"

The door lock was fingerprinted, and there was no need for a key.

Douglas instantly became helpless that she didn't understand what he wanted to do.

He glanced at her, pulled her hand over, and said, "What do you think I want?"

Martha was speechless.

Her eyes fell unconsciously on the hands they were holding together, and Martha couldn't react for a while. What was going on?

What did it mean that they held hands like this?

Martha wanted to ask, but she couldn't ask anything.

Douglas knew she was struggling again.

Feeling a little helpless in his heart, Douglas still didn't say anything, but just led Martha out the door.

Martha curled her lips, happy that Douglas hadn't let go.

The two just went out together, and for a moment, Martha felt like they were a married couple.

At this moment, it was already very late.

After they went out, under the quiet night, there were only the two of them, as if they could hear each other's breathing clearly. Martha had been quietly looking at their long and short shadows, and she can't hide her happiness in her heart.

Douglas didn't speak either, but just led Martha forward like this.

Martha noticed that Douglas' pace today was very, very slow, as if he was matching her pace and taking into account her mood.

After being by Douglas' side for seven years, Martha knew very well that Douglas was not such a considerate person, and most of the time, he was very willful. His pace of walking was even faster than others can imagine.

Because of Douglas, Martha had developed good skills. No matter how fast she walked, her posture was very perfect, and people can't see any gaffes at all. Therefore, Douglas's slow pace at the moment, in Martha's view, was quite novel.

Martha looked up at Douglas. From her position, she could only see his side face, but even the side face had fascinated her very much.

Douglas could feel Martha's gaze, and he could also feel how hot her gaze was now, and how uncontrollably restrained she was.

Pursing his lips and smiling, Douglas said, "Looking at me like this, you won't be afraid to make me think you're in love with me?" Martha's footsteps stopped, and she panicked instantly.

She was about to refute, but she heard Douglas say, "Martha, don't lie. I know exactly what you are thinking."

What should she do? She was really panicked.

She was actually very embarrassed to let her admit her thoughts like this.

However, in this situation, even if she denied it, she probably won't be believed.
