Chapter 411: Babies and Their Father Are Not Considerate to Her
Chapter 411: Babies and Their Father Are Not Considerate to Her
Chloe wants to continue to be with Lily and tells her everything she wants to eat. Lily orders ingredients
online.
"The deliveries will take at least 40 minutes to arrive. Is there flour and salt-free butter in the kitchen?"
Lily asks Betty as she goes to the kitchen, totally ignoring Louis.
"Yes, it's all in the cabinet above." Betty follows her into the kitchen and prepares for what her needs.
"There's also an oven and molds for making biscuits. Ms. Lily, do you need these?"
"Yes, take them out."
"Alright."
Chloe does not follow him in. Instead, she looks at Louis beside her and asks curiously, "Louis, you
said that you went back for your computer, right?"
Before Louis can speak, she rummages around the living room.
Finally, she finds a PC beside the TV cabinet and excitedly hands it over to Louis. "I find it! Louis, hurry
up and leave. It's not good to miss your work."
"..."
Louis rubs his eyebrows and says, "I'm worried that you stay with an outsider at home. I'll leave later."
"An outsider?" Chloe gets confused and follows his gaze. When she sees Lily, she becomes a little
angry, "Lily is not an outsider. Louis, even if you have broken up with her, you don't need to treat her
like your enemy. Lily is a beautiful woman. You don't want her, but any men want."
Louis puts on a serious face. "Chloe, are you helping a stranger rather than me?"
"I'm telling the truth." Chloe curls her red lips and whispers to him, "Louis, you're staying here for the
food cooked by Lily, right?"
"No."
Chloe snorted, "I think I'm right. It's clear that you want to eat here."
"Go back to the bedroom and change your pajamas." Louis presses her head with his palm and forces
her to turn around to her room. "If you keep arguing with me, I will send away Betty. Then you have to
rely on yourself."
"You're so mean!" Chloe mutters. She pats his hand away and reluctantly returns to the bedroom.
Louis puts the computer on the coffee table and gets him a glass of soda water at the bar.
When he gets up, he sees Lily working in the open-plan kitchen. She wears her hair in a ponytail and
her hair hangs on her back randomly. She dresses in simple casual clothes and her fair neck is
exposed, full of femininity.
He leans against the bar and gazes at Lily, his eyes as beautiful as a black pearl. He watches her
walking around or taking something from Betty.
What kind of magic power does this woman possess? And why couldn't he forget her?
Why could she easily influence his moods?
Louis is a little annoyed. He raises his head and drinks up a glass of soda. That calms him down.
Betty is helping in the kitchen for Lily when her phone suddenly rings.
Betty signals to Lily for leaving and goes aside to answer the phone.
About two minutes later, Betty leaves the kitchen and comes to Louis. She says anxiously, "Mr. Smith,
my granddaughter has a high fever. But my son and daughter-in-law are on a business trip and they
can't come back to look after her. I'm afraid my husband can't handle it alone. Can I take half a day off
to go back home?"
"I'll give you half a day off." Louis says, "Just remember getting back here on time tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, Mr. Smith." Betty is very grateful to him. Before she leaves, she says, "Mr. Smith, since
you are not busy, you can go and help Ms. Lily. She can't do it alone."
After Betty leaves, Louis is still leaning against the bar.
He looks into the kitchen and sees that Lily is able to work alone. He thinks in mind, 'She dislikes me
and I'm not willing to help her either.'
Besides, he's not here to help.
"Where's Betty?" Dressed in her household clothes, Chloe is curious when she finds that Lily is in the
kitchen alone. "Why doesn't Betty help Lily?"
Louis replies simply, "Her granddaughter has a high fever and I give her half a day off to take care of Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
her."
"Then I'll go help Lily!" Chloe then rolls up her sleeves and runs to the kitchen excitedly.
However, she is stopped halfway by Louis.
"Do you want to blow up the kitchen again?" Louis is speechless when he thinks of what she did last
time. "If there is a fire, the Smith Group can't afford the indemnity."
"I... I just didn't pay attention for a while, so I set the wrong time for the oven!" Chloe argues, "Isn't it
appropriate to leave Lily alone in the kitchen."
As she speaks, she suddenly fixes her gaze on Louis with a crafty expression in her eyes.
Louis forebodes mischief from her eyes.
Before Mr. Smith could say, he is pushed into the kitchen by Chloe. She even shouts, "Lily, Louis wants
to help you!"
Lily snorts and says in disdain, "He can't even distinguish between sugar and salt, come on!"
"He will do better this time." Chloe pushes Louis into the kitchen and smiles. "Louis said that he
couldn't just eat your dessert effortlessly. He really wants to do something for you. Lily, please let him
try."
Lily turns around and sees Louis behind her.
She rolls her eyes at him and points at the flour basin. "Since Mr. Smith wants to help so much, then
make a dough!"
Louis looks at Chloe coldly. But she has already fled to the living room.
"What are you looking at? Do it!" Lily urges him and mumbles, "Tell me if you can't. Don't stand here
idle like a fool!"
"..."
Louis remains silent for five seconds without expression. He firstly takes off his cuff links, next he rolls
up his sleeves and washes his hands. Then he takes a kettle and pours the warm water into the basin.
After stirring a few times with the chopsticks, he asks Lily, "Dry or wet?"
"Dry. I'll make bread."
"OK."
They stop speaking but stand side by side and work separately.
After Louis finishes working the dough, he presses it and feels that it is almost the right consistency. He
turns to tell Lily.
When Lily turns around to take something, she accidentally bumps against Louis. It is so sudden that
she loses her balance and falls backwards.
Louis is worried so that he hurriedly reaches out to hold her waist and pulls her back. As soon as she
steadies herself, he quickly withdraws his hand and moves aside.
Lily is surprised by his movement.
Holy shit! Such a heartless man. You never keep a distance from me when sleeping. What's wrong
now?
She is in her pregnancy and one of the naughty babies kicks her.
Lily frowns. She feels upset that babies and their father are not considerate to her.
"What's the matter?" Louis asks when he sees her pale complexion. He intends to say to her, "Let's
take a rest!" But he worries that it will sound too close for them so he says nothing.
"It's fine!" Lily says unhappily. She passes him and takes out a bag of gluten-free flour from the cabinet.
"I have softened the butter. Smooth it with the eggbeater and then mix some eggs. Finally, add some
salt and gluten-free flour. Remember to put salt rather than sugar. Otherwise, the biscuits will be very
sweet."
After taking over the eggbeater, Louis asks, "How long will it take to get it smooth?"
"I don't know! Search online!" Lily says coldly and turns back to him.
Louis is speechless.
He doesn't seem to have done anything wrong. He even helped her just now. Why does she speak in
such a manner?
