For a moment, the pair exchanged a ten-second nce before Matthew averted his eyes and dumped the te’s contents into the garbage.


    “Ah, you’re awake.


    ” Matthew greeted her calmly.


    “This pot is subpar.


    I’ll ask Fernando to bring a recementter.


    ”


    Ste, now fully aware, was amused by his feeble excuse.


    To preserve his enthusiasm, she tried her best to stifle herughter.


    Clearing her throat to steady her voice, she said, “I’m not much of a cook myself.


    I’ll pop downstairs and grab some breakfast from the restaurant.


    ”


    “Alright.


    ” Matthew inspected the scorched bottom of the pot and frowned.


    Secondster, he tossed the ruined pot into the trash, secured the garbage bag, and lifted it.


    Composure restored, he said, “I’ll head downstairs to dispose of the trash and pick up some breakfast while I’m at it.


    You should freshen up.


    ”


    “Sounds good.


    ”


    They went their separate ways.


    When Ste emerged, freshly washed and revitalized, a sumptuous breakfast awaited her in the dining area.


    As they ate, she told Matthew, “Once we’re done eating, you should head back to change and go to work.


    I’ve got my own projects to tackle.


    ”


    Matthew nodded in agreement.This is from N?velDrama.Org.

    After the meal, Matthew drove back to his office, while Ste retreated to her studio.


    Shortly thereafter, there was a knock at the door.


    Assuming Matthew had forgotten something, Ste opened the door, poised to say, “Did you leave…”


    The moment she opened the door, Ste found Flossie standing outside and stopped talking at once.


    “Flossie? What brings you here?”


    Flossie greeted her with a grin.


    “Am I not wee?”


    “Of course you are! Come in,” Ste said warmly.


    Flossie had been at a fashion show the previous day, leaving her unable to attend Ste’s gathering.
