A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 700

Sherman could not bring herself to hear Kingsley coughing. She put down the water glass and looked at him."Is there where your kitchen is?"

Kingsley nodded but saw that she was already on her way to the open kitchen. As she walked, she said, "I felt sorry for what happened yesterday. To express my apology, I'll cook you something."

'Cook something?' Kingsley frowned. Although he did not like people touching the things in his villa at will, he did not say a word this time.

Apparently, his throat was severely inflamed. She opened the refrigerator and found some pears and mint leaves. They were ingredients of some sore throat remedy that was just right for him, and she had come across its recipe on the Internet two days ago.

Kingsley did not make a sound. Instead, his deep black eyes fell on her, looking at her dully. There were no changes in his emotion.

Sherman soaked the mint leaves in the water. She then washed the pears, peeled, cut them, and removed their cores and pedicles.

After she had done with the preparation, she could not remember the next steps. She had no recollection of the crucial steps, no matter how long she searched in her memories.

"Erm..." Sherman licked her lips as she was flustered. Her face slightly reddened. "Mr. Wright, could you turn on the notebook, please?"

It was really embarrassing! The most embarrassing part was she had to deal with it in someone else's house. It’s super awkward!

"Notebook?" Kingsley wondered what she meant.

"I came across about a remedy that can soothe sore throat on the Internet two days ago. I've done some preparation, but I've forgotten the next steps..."

After finishing her words, she wanted nothing more than to climb into a hole and hide forever!

Apparently, it was the first time that Kingsley had encountered such a situation. He was stunned for a few seconds, then got up and went to the study. When he came out again, he had a notebook in his hand and asked her, "What should I do?"
