Substitute Her to Love You novel Chapter 39

The next day, I woke up amid the aroma of the porridge.

Actually, I hadn't eaten anything for almost 24 hours. And I felt that my throat was dry and thirsty.

I looked at the surrounding layout, which indicated clearly that I was in a single man's house.

I already guessed where I was.

I wanted to get up. But I felt dizzy as soon as I got up!

So I fell back onto the bed again.

Right at this moment, the door of my room opened. And Seth stood at the door, holding a small plate with a bowl of porridge and a plate of side dishes on it.

Seeing me get up, he immediately put the things in his hand on the bedside table and held me, "You are suffering from a serious fever. Where are you going?"

Then he pressed me on the bed and handed me the porridge.

I wanted to take it over. But he stopped me, "The porridge is hot. I'll help you take it."

I was a little embarrassed, intending to finish the porridge quickly.

But the porridge was hot. I kept blowing it for a long time before I managed to take a sip of it.

Seeing me taking a sip of the porridge, Seth had a tense look in his eyes, "How's it? How's the taste?"

"Well, it tastes good."

I nodded.

With red dates in the porridge, there was a hint of sweetness in it.

My praise made Seth let out a sigh of relief. He said, "That's good. I used to cook by myself. This is the first time I've cooked for others. Originally, I'm afraid you won't be used to it."

I felt very guilty to accept Seth's kindness to me.

After all, he almost lost a great order because of me yesterday.

As I lowered my head and ate the porridge, wondering what to say, I heard Seth say, "We have quitted that project. So you don't have to worry about it. You can go back to your work with ease."

His words startled me. "What do you mean?"
