Chapter 85 Cohabitation Begins
—
Haley was completely unaware, she was busy in the bedroom. Her injuries were not fully healed yet, and her hands were not very convenient, so she worked slowly.
Then, Conte saw that she hadn’t come down yet, worried that the fish soup was cold, so she took the initiative to come up.
“Miss Jones, have you finished? The fish soup is getting cold, do you need help?”
“Ah? No, Conte, I’ll be fine, I’ll go down immediately.”
Haley was flattered. She packed as soon as possible and went down with Conte.
This maid was unexpected to Haley. Lisa, the former maid, had a bad attitude. From the first time Lisa saw her, she seemed to be evil and disliked her. It makes Haley angry.
Fortunately, Conte is much better.
Haley followed Conte downstairs, directly to the restaurant.
“Miss Jones, drink it slowly. I’m going to work. Roy said he wants to eat dumplings at night, and I have to make them for him.”
“Dumplings?”
Haley asked subconsciously.
She still had guilt about Roy. Although they recognized each other now, she always focused on everything about him subconsciously.
Conte nodded and said, “Yes, I didn’t know he liked to eat it. I didn’t learn it before I came here. I am not sure if he likes it or not.”
“Ah? I can go with you because I can do this.”
Haley’s eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at the maid eagerly. She hoped that she could give her a chance to do it for children.
She knew how to make dumplings, and Ian and Lily loved to eat. She made dumplings not long ago.
Conte was really happy and said, “Really? That’s great, but your hands aren’t very convenient…”
“It’s okay, you knead the dough, and I wrap it up.”
Haley hurriedly said it was okay. Heard that, Conte took her into the kitchen.
So this afternoon, Haley stayed in the kitchen and made dumplings with this maid after cleaning up the room. She was busy until the sun went down before she finished making dumplings.
“Finished. Are you okay, Miss Jones?”
“It’s alright.”
Haley waved her hand quickly, indicating that she was fine, and then went to wash her hands.
Conte was happy, holding these dumplings, and said, “I have to call Jason and tell him to come back early to taste the dumplings we made.”
The words fell, and Haley’s hands froze.
Jason?
Did she call him to come back?
For no reason, there was a burst of tension in her heart, and she didn’t even speak as freely as before.
“Miss Jones? What do you think?”
“Ah? Well… well, but, he shouldn’t like these things.” Haley replied absently, trying to find an excuse to dispel her thoughts.
But the maid was very stubborn, saying that Jason was not a picky eater, and then went to call.
Was Jason not a picky eater?
A little doubt flashed in Haley’s eyes because she remembered very clearly that this man used to pick, and she knew what he liked to eat or disliked.
Really?
He was a very picky eater.
In the end, Haley could only let her go and quickly cleaned up. She brought a few dumplings that were already cooked and went upstairs.
“Roy, I made the dumplings, come out and try it.”
The original intention of making dumplings was that Roy wanted to eat them. So, she took them directly to Roy’s room, intending to let him taste them first.
However, when she opened the door…
“Ian? Lily? Why are you all here?!”
“…”
Several little guys who were gathering their heads together and didn’t know what to plot immediately got up from the ground and looked at Haley nervously.
Why did Haley come up suddenly?
Wasn’t she making dumplings?!All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Lily felt panicked and stood bewildered.
Fortunately, there was Ian at this time. After a brief panic, he calmed down immediately, and then rushed toward Haley, “Mummy, we are playing, Roy is good!”
“Yeah, Ian is not bad either. You’re all my little babies, and none of you are bad.”
Haley didn’t know the little guy’s hidden thoughts. Hearing him say that his brother was good, she immediately rubbed his head and told him that he was also the best.
When Ian heard this, he looked happy.
Since the little guys were all there, Haley put the dumplings on the small table for everyone to eat together.
“Mommy, Mommy, Lily wants to eat, my belly is hungry.”
“Mommy, I want to eat. Do you take corn and pork stuffed dumplings?”
Because Lily and Ian often ate dumplings made by Haley, they always let Haley pick the one they liked the most.
Haley agreed.
She put one into the mouths of the two little guys and glanced at Roy who was still standing properly.
“Roy, why didn’t you come here? Don’t you want to eat dumplings? Come here. I made these today. You can try them.”
“…”
Roy hesitated.
In fact, he had never eaten dumplings. His health was not good, daddy never let him eat such greasy food. Repulse Bay rarely cooked Chinese food. Most of the time, it was Western food.
Roy took two steps forward, his beautiful eyes looking at the thing in Haley’s hand for a while. When he saw his brother and sister both eating with relish, he nodded.
Haley saw it, smiled, and put a dumpling into his small mouth.
“Is it tasty?”
“Um…”
This time, Roy nodded his head willingness. His eyes were bright, just like born stars.
He wanted to eat, didn’t he?
