Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2023

Sean got even more curious. He continued to walk towards the place where people had come out, and he had to turn a corner again when he arrived at a junction. He then continued to walk further in after turning the corner. In the end, he found the porridge place.

It was true that good wine needs no bush. Sean sat down and ate a bowl, and it truly shocked him to his core. The Ford family had many maids. After Sean had come to Sebastian's house, although there were not many maids there, Aunt Lewis and Aunt Tianna were great cooks. However, Sean simply had never tasted such delicious porridge. He finished one serving, and then he got himself another. After he had finished, he gave it a thought and he just had to bring some back to his grandchildren.

However, he had no pot or food containers, so what should he do? He simply bought a large stainless steel container from the store next door. He asked the seller to rinse the container with boiling water and clean it for him. After that, he directly bought an entire container worth of porridge from the restaurant and went home.

Once he returned to Sebastian and Sabrina's house, he pushed the door open and called out to Aunt Lewis. ' Aunt Lewis, Aunt Lewis, you don't have to prepare the porridge anymore. I brought some home."

Aunt Lewis, who was about to start preparing the porridge, saw that Sean had carried a large container home and she also got very curious. However, since Master Ford said not to prepare the porridge, she just followed his orders. Half an hour later, Sebastian, Sabrina, and Aino got up to have breakfast, and all of them, especially Aino, was stunned after they had the first bite of the porridge.

Aino looked at Aunt Lewis with surprise. "Grandma Lewis, have your cooking skills improved again? I love you to the moon and back. I want to have your porridge every day from now on. Well, can I have another bowl, Grandma Lewis?"

Aino was very curious about why Aunt Lewis put the porridge in the container.

Aunt Lewis looked at Aino with embarrassment., "Well ... Aino, the porridge today is not...not prepared by me..."

Aunt Lewis glanced at Sean.

Aino was speechless. After she was stunned for a while, she asked Sean, "You're the one who prepared i t?" She was truly impressed by the old man.

Sean immediately smiled apologetically. "No...it was not prepared by me. I...I bought it. Is it...delicious?"

Aino nodded. "Yes, it's delicious."

She had to admit that the porridge that the old man had bought was indeed too delicious. It was

incomparably fresh, smooth, and thick. It was simply fantastic. That morning, Aino unprecedentedly said to Sean, "Thank you, old man."

Just a simple thank you was enough to melt Sean's heart. From then onwards, Sean would go and buy a large container full of porridge for the entire family every now and then. Also, he learned that the other dishes from the restaurant were incomparably tasty a s well. It was no wonder why the restaurant was thriving despite being located in such a remote place.

However, that particular day, Sean was actually feeling restless. He did not even sleep a wink the night before, and he could not sit in his rooftop garden. He had to get busy and do something. Therefore, Sean had carried his food container and lined up in front of the restaurant earlier in the morning. He had waited in line for about an hour before he was able to buy the porridge, side dishes, and also some other food. He then finally felt more at ease. However, Sean knew more than anybody else that something would happen that day.

While he slowly walked back home, tears were streaming down his face. Once he opened the door, Sean saw the entire family was standing at the door looking at him. Sebastian, in particular, was looking at Sean with a calm expression.

"What's wrong?" Sean asked.

"Dad, she...is dead," Sebastian said calmly.
