My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 864

After the two of them had a quarrel through the paper plane and small note, Sophia did not leave home for two days because she refused to meet Michael.

Whenever Michael had free time, he would sit under the balcony of her room and patiently wait for her. He would write notes on a small notebook, tear out the paper, and have Leapy send it up to her.

In contrast, the bunch of fat cats were absolutely useless. “It’s a waste of effort rearing all of you. All my efforts had gone down the drain! All you do is eat, and you even shed fur! You guys keep shedding fur!” Michael complained while pinching the fats on Chrysanthemum. He grabbed a handful of its fur and blew it away like dandelion seeds. “I will put you up for adoption in a few days.”

When Harry was walking his dog, he passed by and saw Michael sitting under Sophia’s balcony with the hope of meeting Sophia but to no avail. It was quite sad, but he could only blame himself for being too greedy. Cooper had acquiesced in him holding her hand, but he wished to take another step further by kissing her, which then caused all his earlier efforts to go in vain.

He basically dug his own grave! The kindergarten interview was real, but the questions were altered because he had someone to intervene with the interview through the kindergarten board meeting after he became the major shareholder. The reason he did all that was for the kiss at the final part of the interview! Serves him right!

Michael regretted plotting this as well. Regardless of how perfect his plan was, it unexpectedly completely crumbled with Carmen’s one sentence—‘Daddy is the kindergarten’s major hairholder’.

He petted the cat twice and growled, “All you do is eat. Look at yourself—do you know how fat you are right now?”

Hold on… Eat? An idea came to him in a flash of inspiration.

The weather was very cool in one fine evening after a downpour. Michael set up a barbeque pit at Cooper’s front yard, and the aroma of the food spread into Cooper’s house.

A soft mat was spread out on the lawn, and sitting on it was Carmen, who was drinking milk while talking to Michael. “Daddy, will Mommy really come out?”

Michael was busy grilling food with a chef when he replied, “She will come out. Your mommy used to love barbequing on the rooftop.”

Harry came with his wife as well. As it was a weekend, Nathan was back home, while Stanley, who had come to visit his cats and dogs, brought Sean along with him too. The few of them were having a great time at the barbeque party in front of Cooper’s house, making a lot of noise.

Sophia was reading documents in her study when she found out that Michael was having a barbeque party in front of their house. The fragrance was so strong that it seemed to be able to penetrate through walls—she could still smell the aroma everywhere even though she had shut all the doors and windows.

On top of that, the smell became more fragrant as time passed—so fragrant that it made her drool. I wonder what delicacies they are grilling…

She peeked at the security recordings and saw that all the cats and dogs in their neighborhood were there, watching them as they enjoyed their barbeque party. Even the two alpacas were there.

It smells wonderful… There is seafood, lamb and chicken wings. It’s so fragrant, and I think I can hear the sound of oil sizzling.

A couple of chefs were diligently grilling the food, while the few people took the food to the tables on the yard and enjoyed them with relish.

Leapy went over, took a piece of ham, and ate it in front of Sophia. It enjoyed the food very much, which caused Sophia to be unable to concentrate on reading her documents.

Stanley yelled at her from downstairs, “Sophia, come on down. We are having a barbecue! You used to love barbecue! Come down now. Your favorite chicken wings grilled with a secret recipe is ready. If you are not going to eat them, I’ll feed them all to Judge!”

As expected, Sophia was seen coming down in her pyjamas. She sat down and immediately started eating without greeting anyone.

Stanley admonished her. “Why are you so shy? It was only a kiss with my uncle! You used to kiss him in front of me every day. It made me cringe…”

Sophia continued eating with her head bowed without saying anything. Michael slowly nudged himself toward her with intention to please her. “Dear, here. Eat this. It’s your favorite.”

He had prepared her favorite food—she might not have her past memories, but her taste preference would never change.
