Lucas Hughes took time off work early today just to prepare this sumptuous dinner.
When Chloe Simpson returned home and pushed the door open, her eyes fell on the romantic candlelight at the dining table, the exquisitely arranged plates, and the aroma-filled dishes.
The candlelight shimmered through the red wine in the glass, intoxicating even without a sip, making one begin to feel dazed.
Chloe's heart skipped a beat in an instant.
How long had it been since the two of them had sat down for a proper meal like this?
And how long had it been since Lucas put such careful thought into cooking for her?
The table was adorned with all her favorite dishes. In that moment, Chloe's eyes reddened.
It had been a week since she came back.
Although Lucas seemed no different from before on the surface, there had been a noticeable distance and coldness in the way he treated her.
