My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2030

“Sir… What are you doing here?” Alfius asked, curious.

“How are you? Are you cold?”

Alfius shook his head.

“I’m not cold. Why am I…”

Then, Alfius recalled what had happened at the swordsman association, and he could not stop the tears from flowing down his face.

“Sir, I…”

“That’s enough, young one. Come have something to eat since you’re awake now. I’ve made stewed meat with wild vegetables. Care to have a try?”

Alfius did not say anything. He was still in an extremely low mood.

Just then, the Great Swordsman brought in a large, steaming pot.

“Come, try some!”

He did not allow Alfius a chance to turn down the offer.

The Great Swordsman handed Alfius a bowl before taking the lid off the pot. Immediately, the fragrant smell of meat and vegetables wafted through the room. It was snowing lightly outside, and the smell made the room feel even cozier.

The Great Swordsman brought over a small table and placed a thick blanket over his lap before placing the stew on the table. He then began wolfing down.

When Alfius saw him tucking in, he also began eating the stew.

Once they finished eating, the burly man lay beside the fireplace and hummed an ancient-sounding melody.

Alfius thanked him after finishing the meal and then fell silent. He had no idea how to speak to this free-spirited man.

Then, the Great Swordsman began talking.

“Gosh, it’s already the new year, and it should be spring now. Why does it keep snowing? What do you think, Alfius?”
