Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 214

Everleigh was stunned for a long time. She mustered up some strength to put the thermos back on the table.

She stared at Theodore's hand for some time before coming back to her senses. She withdrew her hand with some restraint and changed the topic. "It's quite a lot. Can you finish it?"

"I can finish it."

After he said these simple words, the room became quiet again. Only the slight sound of slurping could be heard.

Theodore had always been slow when he ate, and he hardly said a word during meals.

"Is it good?" Everleigh looked at him and swallowed subconsciously.

She hadn't eaten yet.

Theodore nodded. "Not bad."

"You can't finish it, can you?"

"I can finish it."

Everleigh shut her mouth when she heard this. "If I had known this, I wouldn't have come in such a hurry. I should've had dinner at home. It's just a waste of time for me to come here and suffer from hunger," she thought.

Ten minutes later, Everleigh watched as Theodore finished all the food in the boxes. Not even a grain of rice was left. She twitched the corner of her mouth and felt exasperated.

"I haven't seen him with such a great appetite before," she thought.

After dinner, Theodore sat on the sofa to read a book. Everleigh was tidying up the table. After packing up the things, she planned on going downstairs to buy some food.

Seeing that Theodore was so engrossed in reading, she didn't want to disturb him. She took her phone and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Theodore's voice came from behind.

She turned around, "I have nothing to do. I'll go downstairs and have a walk. I won't disturb you from reading."

"You have nothing to do?" He raised his gaze from the book and looked at her. "Come here and peel some apples."

Everleigh wanted to slap herself in the face when she heard this. Why did she say that she had nothing to do? She should've just said that she wanted to buy some food.

Even though she was starving, when she looked at Theodore's thin shoulders and the doctor's advice of making him eat more fruits, she silently went over and began to peel the apples for him.

Peeling apples was both a technical and delicate job, and Everleigh was very new to house chores. She held the fruit knife for a long time and didn't know where to start.

A knock on the door came from outside, which was a great help to her. She put down the apple and the knife immediately and said, "I'll open the door."

She opened the door and saw a deliveryman standing outside with a huge box on his back.

"Hello, Mr. Godfrey?"

"Yes." Everleigh looked behind with hesitation.

"The meal you ordered is here. Where should I put it?"

"Meal?" Everleigh was stunned. Seeing the deliveryman still standing outside, she quickly leaned to one side. "Put it on the table."

"Yes."

After the deliveryman entered the room, he took out several plates of food from the huge box and filled the dining table with dishes.

BBQ ribs, salad, soup...

Everleigh stared blankly at him. She didn't know when Theodore had ordered the meal.

When she was in a daze, the deliveryman had already arranged all the dishes on the table and handed her the confirmation form. "Your meal is ready. Please sign here."

"Oh, thank you."

"You're welcome. I'll come and collect the plates later. Please enjoy your meal."
