Falling For My "Disabled" Wife novel Chapter 9

Sophie ate a few bites of the meal happily. However, she suddenly noticed that Willard was simply adding food to Roger's plate, and Roger was slowly savoring each bite. Roger seemed unaware of what he was eating.

Glancing around, Sophie understood that because the Nicholls family probably didn't engage in much conversation during meals, Willard had to refrain from asking too many questions.

Sophie didn't care about the family rule. Lowering her voice, she asked Roger, "There's quite a variety of food today. There's garlic butter cod, chicken soup, pork chops, and broccoli. Roger, what do you like?"

It was the first time Sophie called him by his name. Roger's hand froze for a moment, but then he smiled. "Broccoli and chicken soup."

The Nicholls family rule led Roger to become accustomed to being served by Willard. Roger rarely bothered about what food there was. If Willard picked something, Roger ate it. It was the first time someone at the dining table asked Roger what he liked.

Sophie replied, "Alright. I'll serve the soup, and Willard can help you with the broccoli."

Willard was still in a daze, not expecting Sophie to break the family rule. However, Willard had always wanted to know what Roger liked to eat, so Willard helped Roger with the broccoli. "Mr. Roger, this is broccoli."

"Okay. Thank you." Roger nodded.

Sophie brought a bowl of soup to Roger and continued, "There are also boiled peas and mashed potatoes. Would you like to try them too?"

"Sure." Roger agreed to Sophie's suggestions.

The two were engaged in a conversation, breaking the oppressive silence. Damian and Jasmine's expressions remained ominous throughout.

However, seeing Sophie taking care of Roger, Norman felt Sophie was considerate. "Sophie, you're so thoughtful. With you around, Roger will be well taken care of."

In the past, everyone followed the family rules. Over the years, no one had asked Roger what he liked to eat. Now, Sophie not only noticed but also helped Roger choose what to eat. It was a good thing.

"You flatter me, Mr. Norman. It's something I should do," Sophie replied with a smile.

Seeing this, Daisy couldn't help but feel moved. "From now on, you will be Roger's eyes."

The single sentence from Daisy made Sophie's heart tremble. It was then that Sophie realized how important she was to Roger. Curling her lips, Sophie nodded. "Yes. From today onwards, I will be his eyes." After all, Sophie had initially thought the same way. Roger had brought her out of the Bourn family, and she would remember the favor.

Seeing that Sophie truly felt that way, Daisy nodded approvingly.

During the meal, Sophie served Roger his food, poured water for him, and even handed him tissues. She was very thoughtful. Although Sophie's arrival disrupted the family rules of the Nicholls family, with Norman's approval, no one dared to say much. They could only eat in silence.

Soon, Norman finished his meal. Humphrey also stopped and said slowly, "Dad, your birthday party is in half a month. I've already booked a hotel, but we need your confirmation on the details."

Norman glanced at Humphrey and said, "No need. We held it every year. You can handle it yourself." The party was almost the same each year. Norman did not have much patience for it anymore.
