Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 559

Chapter 559 Alexander Made Them

Sophia returned to the house. Alexander had begun cooking the garlic butter prawns, and the kitchen was filled with a tantalizing aroma. Drawn in by the alluring scent, Sophia found herself walking toward the kitchen doorway. She gazed at Alexander's figure from behind, thinking about the strange things in this world.

There was nothing Sophia could not do, except cooking.

On the other hand, Alexander could pick up any new skills easily.

I guess love is about complementing each other.

Seemingly sensing her gaze, Alexander turned around. “Did you get rid of her?”

Sophia nodded and walked over to him. “It smells good.”

Alexander's eyes flicked toward the prawns. “It's my first time trying this recipe, so it might turn out a little saltier.”

“That's fine.”

While observing the garlic butter prawns that Alexander had skillfully arranged on a plate, Sophia could not help but feel a subtle longing to try out the food.

Unlike Katherine, who had a deep passion for food, Sophia's interests in food were generally moderate. However, ever since she had been with Alexander, even a simple meal prepared by him had the power to ignite a sense of anticipation within her, making her eagerly look forward to the next dining experience.

It was strange, but perhaps the feeling was enhanced by the fact that she did not need to prepare her own meal.

Alexander had placed the prawns into smaller plates and placed them on the table. “Do you want to try them?”

Sophia blinked. “I'm going to take a photo of this for Katherine. She said she wanted to eat these but she can't.”

Alexander's gaze softened. “You're making life tough for Mr. Lewis.”

Katherine would end up pestering Joshua to make her the dish.

However, it was only the second day after Katherine had given birth. Garlic butter prawns were not something that could be in her diet yet.

Sophia raised a brow. “Well, that isn't my intention.”

Alexander knew that Sophia was not as dignified as she usually presented herself as. She had a cuter side known to few people.

That adorable side of her was what made her fall for her again and again.

When Sophia lifted her head to look at Alexander, their eyes met, and she froze.

The gaze he directed at her mirrored the intensity and desire he had displayed during their intimate moments the previous night.

Sophia blushed and cleared her throat. “Let me take a picture.”

She picked up her phone and took a few shots of the dish from several angles before sending them to Katherine.

While enjoying her lunch, Katherine noticed multiple photos incoming from Sophia. Assuming it was the usual exchange of the latest gossip, she tapped into the messages with curiosity. To her surprise, the images revealed the very garlic butter prawns she had been longing for over the past two weeks.

Katherine glanced at the photos sent by Sophia and then shifted her gaze to her own meal. Suddenly, her appetite vanished, and she found herself unable to continue eating.

Even though Joshua knew that she was only pretending to be mad, he was still afraid that she would cry for real. “Don't be sad. I'll make it for you too after this lying-in period.”

Joshua was known as the devil in the office, but at that moment, he was gently coaxing his wife. If the employees of Technology Innovations were to witness that side of him, they would be so stunned that their jaws would drop.

Katherine remained still. Joshua pursed his lips and called out, “Kath?”

Katherine continued to sulk until Lewinn abruptly started crying. She popped her head out of the blanket, reached out for the boy, and asked, “Is he hungry?”

Katherine was about to feed Lewinn, but when she looked at Joshua, she snapped, “I'm about to feed our son. Why are you still standing there?”

Joshua could only stare at Katherine for a while longer before turning to leave.

Even though Katherine seemed unbothered by many things, she could be very shy sometimes.

Lewinn's crying distracted Katherine from the garlic butter prawns incident. As Katherine had just begun producing breast milk that morning, she did not have much milk for the baby. Lewinn seemed unsatisfied with the quantity of milk he was receiving, and that made Katherine feel distressed. The nutritionist seized the opportunity to enlighten Katherine about how her diet could impact the baby. In the end, Katherine pursed her lips and let out a sigh. “Fine, I'll skip the garlic butter prawns, then.”

I'm so sad. It's tough to be a mother!

The events unfolding in Katherine's household remained unknown to Sophia. Alexander had finished cooking. Although he had never attempted two of the dishes before, his culinary skills proved exceptional. The final creations tasted just as delectable as dishes found in restaurants, particularly the garlic butter prawns.

Perhaps it had been a long time since Sophia had garlic butter prawns. She found the prawns delicious. In fact, she wished that the prawns were of a bigger portion.

Regrettably, Katherine can't try out the dish. If given the chance, I, as an old friend, would have gladly brought a small portion of the exquisite dish to her. Alas, there's nothing I can do about this. Katherine's on a strict diet.
