Chapter 1506
Chloe seemed fine, so Rose and Yulia finally breathed a sigh of relief. They sat for a while, but
compared to the natural conversation between Chloe and Rose, Yulia''s silence seemed a bit over
the top. Soon, Yulia stood up, smiling, "You two soon-to-be moms keep on yakking. I''m gonna
sneak off to help in the kitchen."
Rose grabbed her arm, "We''ve got a chef and assistant in there. You don''t need to lift a finger."
Yulia shook her head, "I''m learning to cook, and I can pick up some killer recipes from the chef."
After some contemtion, she smiled gently and said, "Nathan loves this."
Rose raised an eyebrow, a slight change shed in her eyes. "Well, I see."
She let go of Yulia, her tone made Yulia blush a little. "Off you go, we can''t wait to try your dishes."
Yulia smiled as she gathered the loose strands of hair around her shoulders. Her graceful neck was
revealed, and her hair was tied into a small bun at the back of her head, giving her a much neater
appearance.
Rose watched Yulia head to the kitchen, smiled, and popped a grape from the fruit bowl on the
coffee table into her mouth.
Chloe watched her feignedposure and smiled slightly at the act. She popped a slice of orange
in her mouth, flicked on the TV with the remote, and said, "Damon''s chef is tough to find. Don''t you
wanna learn a few signature dishes to treat your man?"
Rose paused her chewing, finally managing a bitter smile. "I''m pregnant, and I can barely stand
being waited on. Why should I wait on others?"
Chloe nced at her; as a friend, she knew too well the bitterness and helplessness behind Rose''s
laugh. She nodded and chimed in, "Right, pregnant womene first. It''s the only time in a
woman''s life where she gets treated like a queen, so make the most of it. Eat up today."
She didn''t want to bring up anything annoying. For her future son inw''s healthy growth, as a
future mother-inw, she had to be on the ball.
"Sure. Let me tell you. Don''t shortchange your ''baby’. Rest assured, for the love you have for him,
I''ll make sure he calls you ''dad'' first thing when he''s born."
Chloe raised an eyebrow, ncing at Rose''s belly. Honestly, she was quite excited. After all, it wasContent is property of N?velDrama.Org.
notmon for a woman to be called a "dad".
As they were shooting the breeze, the doorbell rang. Chloe got up to answer, puzzled at the tall
figure standing at the door. "What brings you here?"
Nathan ruffled his hair, "I''m hungry, thought I''d find something to eat."
Chloe gave him a meaningful look, and a slight smile yed at the corner of her lips as she stepped
aside to let him in.
Nathan came in, changed shoes, and started to look around the living room. His tall figure was quite
noticeable. Chloe closed the door calmly, then casually said, "She''s cooking in the kitchen."
Her words didn''t specify who, and if someone not in the know was present, they might not know
who she was talking to. But Nathan turned around abruptly, a surprised look on his handsome face.
"In the kitchen? Can she cook? She dares to go in the kitchen?"
Chloe just raised her eyebrows slightly, not responding.
"I''ll go take a look. Don''t want her to blow up the kitchen." With that, he didn''t wait for Chloe''s
response and headed straight for the kitchen. As he walked past the sofa, he greeted Rose, who
was sitting there.
Seeing Chloe walk over, Rose chuckled softly. "He came in as if he was on fire, like he hadn''t seen
her in a long time."
Chloe sat down, "He''s been busy with work recently, just got back from Vegas a couple of days ago.
They probably haven''t seen each other yet."
Roseughed again, "I thought so."
In the kitchen, Yulia was studying the menu on the counter, focusing on the chef''s cooking steps
and techniques. The chef knew she was a friend of thedy of the house, so he was happy to teach
her and promised to give her a recipe. "We rarely see high society wives like you willing to cook,
especially fashionable youngdies like you."
Yulia smiled, "Well, I don''t have much else to do."
The chef nced at her,ughing, "You want to cook for someone special, don''t you?"
Yulia''s smile stiffened for a moment, a blush creeping onto her face. "He loves home-cooked meals.
He loves to eat and he''s got a big appetite."
She seemed to recall how Nathan looked when he was eating, and there was a brief pause in her
words. A smile unconsciously appeared in her eyes.
She was ustomed to exquisite and creatively presented dishes. Her taste leaned toward mild
vors, and her appetite wasn''t particrlyrge. Nathan, however, was the most voracious and
unrestrained eater she had ever seen. His personality matched his appetite in its extravagance.
Whether it was eating or the moments they shared together intimately, it was all equally
unrestrained. Thinking about this, Yulia''s blush deepened.
The chef didn''t know what she was thinking, just happy to see her shy reaction to cooking for
someone special. "He eats a lot? You could try Mexican food. I''m happy to teach you, I''m sure your
dishes will be great, want to give it a shot?"
"Sure."
When Nathan walked into the kitchen, Yulia was standing aside, watching the chef cook. Yulia was
surprised, barely leaning back when she felt a strong arm around her waist, pulling her back a few
steps. Before she could let out a gasp, she felt her back against a sturdy chest.
Despite the strong aromas in the kitchen, Yulia quickly recognized the potent masculine scent from
Nathan. Her heart raced, turning around to see that handsome face of Nathan. Her eyes quivered
slightly, and her lips moved, "Why...are you here?"
Nathan looked at Yulia''s lips opening then closing, a mysterious fire rising in his eyes. He cursed
inwardly, this woman, she was irresistible.
They were just a few days apart.
