Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas)
Chapter 195
Chapter 195
Jessica heard him and took a step back, “Come in then.”
Terry walked in, and Jessica noticed that he was carrying two bags in his hands.
Jessica lowered her head, and when she saw the food in one of the bags, she couldn’t help but feel surprised. “You are not going to cook lunch here, are you?”
Terry had been at Jessica’s place before, so he knew where the kitchen was. He went directly over and then spoke as he took the things out of the bag. “Yeah. You’ve just got off the plane, right?”
Jessica paused a bit, but she didn’t go on asking.
“Do you mind giving me a hand?”
While she was in a daze, Terry suddenly said.
Jessica came back to her senses and looked at him in confusion. “What?”
“Help me put on the apron. Thank you.”
With that, Jessica glanced at the apron and Terry’s white shirt and black trousers. She couldn’t help but chuckle. “The combination looks funny to me.”
As she spoke, she took the apron over and tied it up on Terry.
“You may go and have a rest now.”
Seeing Jessica not moving, Terry turned around.
Terry had a knife in his hand when he said that.
Jessica chuckled at Terry’s amusing look. “Do you really know how to cook?”
Terry looked at her, his eyes curving into crescents. “Is cooking difficult?”
Jessica laughed, “Then I’ll leave you be.”
Jessica didn’t get to rest after returning home from the airport. She felt tired now.
She had received dozens of messages from Hannah, asking her who the guest was and telling her not to let him in if it was Lucas.
Jessica put down the cup and went to the sofa to reply. “It’s not Lucas.”
Jessica put down her phone. Since Terry was in the kitchen, Jessica didn’t think it was proper for her to have a rest in her room. Thus, she took over the Macbook and started reading reports on the land in the north.
Jessica had been on a business trip for a week. Thus, she had a lot to read. She was so devoted to the reports that she only came back to her senses when she smelt the spaghetti.
Jessica checked the clock on the screen and realized that half an hour had passed since Terry walked in.
“I only made spaghetti bolognese.” Terry put the plate on the table.
Jessica smiled, “It smells so good. Mr. Davison, you are a good cook.”
She stood up and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
Jessica didn’t have a good appetite right after she got off the plane. She put her fork down after finishing her spaghetti.
Terry looked at Jessica and asked, “Still trying to find out the source?”
“You saw the news too?” Jessica raised her eyebrows.
“It was spread out from our circle. It’s impossible to miss. You won’t buy it if I say I haven’t read it,” said Terry with a smile. He then went on, “Any progress so far?”.
Jessica was about to say no when she received a text message from Wendy.
