Chapter 129

Noelle woke up around noon the next day. Her eyes fluttered open with a sudden movement, as if she’d been recharged, and she was a far cry from the weak and feverish state she’d been in the day before.

“Nick“” She sat up in bed and looked around the room, searching for Nicolas, but he wasn’t there. The room was empty–just her.

“Nick” She hopped out of bed, barefoot, and rushed toward the door, ready to find him.

As soon as she stepped into the hallway, a wave of delicious smell hit her. It was intoxicating.

Her nose twitched, and her stomach growled loudly, demanding to be fed. She followed the scent, racing downstairs, where she sported Nicolas- tall handsome, and holding a bowl of portilge–heading toward the stairs.

When he saw her, a smile spread across his haisdsome Lace. “Elly babe, what are you doing running around like this?

“I couldn’t find you, so I came looking!” Noelle chirped, bouncing over to him. Her eyes locked onto the bowl in his hands. “Nick, what’s that! It smells amazing!”

Nicolas chuckled, teasing her. “Guess I’ll have to make sure you’re well–fed, or else all the furniture in the house will disappear.”

Noelle giggled, reaching out to grab the porridge from his hands. “Let’s eat!”

She started toward the dining table, but after a few steps, Nicolas called her back. “Hold up”

“Huh?” Noelle turned, blinking at him. “What’s wrong“”

Nicolas’s brows furrowed as he walked over, his gaze dropping to her bare feet. “Why aren’t you wearing shoes?”

Noelle looked down and then realized, eyes wide. “Oh! I forgot!”

Nick sighed, his expression softening, though a flicker of frustration lingered. This little scanerbrain he thought, shaking his head with a mixture of exasperation and affection

Without saying another word, he swept her up into his arms, his voice gentle but firm. “Even though it’s summer, the floor can be cold. No more running around barefoot, got i

The sight of her sweet, innocent face made Nick’s heart soften. His chest tightched with affection, and it felt li his hear, over and over.

Snapping out of his daze, Nicolas carried her to the dining room.

Noelle, needing to replenish her energy after her injury, devoured the entire poi of porridge. When she finished, she leaned back in her chair, parting her slightly rounded belly, “Nick, your cooking is amazing. This porridge is almost as goost as mine!”

“Really” Nick raised an eyebrow, amused. “You’re complimenting me and sneaking in a self–praise at the same time?”

Noelle grinned. “I’m just telling the truth Next time.

“Alright, Ill believe it when I taste it,” he teased, tapping her nose affectionately
