Chapter 21
Alaricka took a deep breath. “I’ll order takeout.”
Kieran suddenly walked towards the kitchen. “I’ll make some pasta.”
Alaricka looked up at Kieran’s back abruptly, showing a complicated expression.
Kieran never cooked for her.
It wasn’t because he couldn’t cook, but because Kieran only cooked for Roschelle.
She once saw the dishes Kieran made. They looked very delicious. His cooking skills were as good as a chef’s.
Soon, she knew why Kieran wanted to cook tonight.
Roschelle’s gentle smile disappeared when she saw Alaricka. Her voice barely lost control. “Ms. Huston, why are you here?”
Alaricka stepped aside to let Roschelle in. “You should ask Kieran.”
Kieran came out of the kitchen with a plate of pasta, and there was already a plate on the table.
Two pastas were just enough for two people.
Roschelle took her slippers from the shoe closet naturally and put them on. She walked to Kieran, softly helping him take off his apron, and took the pasta from his hand, placing it on the table.
“It’s my favorite pasta. Kier, you’re still such a good cook.”
Alaricka understood the situation. Kieran didn’t say the pasta was for her.
It was for Roschelle.
She was really overthinking things.
Roschelle finished speaking, ate some pasta, and slowly smiled. “It’s delicious.”
Before Kieran could say anything, Roschelle bit her lip and said in embarrassment. “Oh, I forgot Ms. Huston. Have you had dinner?”
She looked at the two plates of pasta with an embarrassed expression. “There are only two pastas here for me and Kier. What about Ms. Huston?”
Alaricka coldly watched Roschelle’s acting, and as soon as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Kieran.
“I’ll have someone take her back.”
Just like before, Kieran chose Roschelle without hesitation.
Alaricka clearly saw Roschelle’s lips curled. Roschelle pretended to worry about her. “It’s so late. Will Ms. Huston be in danger going back now?”
Kieran responded without thinking, “No.”
Roschelle finally laughed happily. “Ms. Huston, sorry to cause you trouble. I’m staying here tonight, so it’s not convenient to see you off downstairs.”
As she spoke, Kieran looked at Alaricka.
Alaricka’s face was calm, without any trace of resistance or sadness, just calmly accepting the arrangement of these two people.
Kieran slightly furrowed his brows.
After a moment, his brows relaxed.
Between Alaricka and Roschelle, he knew what to choose.
Alaricka expected his choice early.
Whether in her previous life or now, between her and Roschelle, Kieran would only choose Roschelle.
He never cared about others.
Alaricka thought it was good. She didn’t want to stay here any longer. She just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
She quickly changed her shoes and said, “I’ll go downstairs by myself. You guys don’t need to see me off.”
Alaricka quickly closed the door and left.
After a while, Kieran suddenly strode over, grabbed the key, and said, “I’ll see her off. You eat first.”
Roschelle was startled. “Kier?”
Kieran’s hand was on the doorknob. “I’ll be right back.”
Roschelle held back her anxiety and smiled. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Alaricka just got into the car when Kieran came.
She quickly locked the car door and opened the car window.
“Mr. Argent, you should go back and spend time with your girlfriend. You really don’t need to see me off.”
Kieran’s eyebrows twitched slightly. “Alaricka.”
Alaricka looked at the driver. “Let’s go. We shouldn’t get in the way of Mr. Argent’s romantic evening.”
Alaricka was back at the Argent’s villa. Perhaps because Kieran, Clarissa, and Roschelle were not here, she had a happy dinner.
