Chapter 1269


    When I got home, Hendrix was busy in the kitchen. It was rare to see him like this. I leaned against


    the doorframe and couldn''t help smiling as I watched him bustling about in the kitchen with an apron


    on.


    He was taken aback by my sudden return. "When did youe back? Why didn''t you make any


    sound?" he asked.


    I beamed at him, "Hi!"


    He gave me a small smile and said, "Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner!"


    I was a little surprised to see that he was wearing a grey sweater. I couldn''t help but say, "You look


    much better in clothes of other colors than in ck. It makes you look younger!"


    He raised his eyebrows and gave me a serious look, "Do I usually look very old?"


    Looking at his stern expression, I couldn''t help butugh, "A little. You look too serious, it makes


    people think you''re harder to approach than you really are. It''s better like this, you look more


    pleasant!"


    He pondered for a moment and said, "I''ll try to wear more clothes of other colors then!"


    I got lost in my thoughts for a second. Since when did he start listening to other people''s opinions


    like this? He was starting to learn how to restrain his emotions and behaviors better, and started


    reflecting on himself more often.


    It seemed that he was slowly bing a totally different person. In the past, he never smiled and


    always had a grim and solemn expression on his face. These changes did not happen all of a


    sudden, but were hidden in the details of everyday life. It was all so subtle that I didn''t even notice


    until now. When did he be such a gentle and sensitive man?Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    By the time I realized his change, he seemed to have already be such a detail- oriented


    person, he got jealous easily, threw tantrums, and deliberately changed his routine to cater to me.


    These changes had alle silently.


    He was never an expressive person, but he showed his love by taking care of me.


    Seeing that I was in a daze, he raised his hand and waved it a few times in front of my eyes. He


    asked, "What are you thinking about?"


    I retracted my thoughts and kissed him gently on his chin. I answered, "I''m thinking, how lucky am I


    to meet such a nice man like Mr. Roberts."


    He said greedily, "I''m lucky to meet Miss Reid as


    well."


    After flirting with him for a while, I could not help but relieve myself of the troubles in the hospital.


    After dinner, he asked me to go back to the bedroom. Just then, Valerie called me and asked me


    how I was doing recently. She also demanded to know why I hadn''t gone back to visit them even


    though I was in Jarold City.


    I exined about it and promised to visit them the next day. Anne called me on the phone and


    chatted with me for a while before hanging up.


    I thought I could have a good night''s sleep, but I didn''t expect Hendrix''s phone to ring almost


    immediately after we bothy down on the bed. He answered the phone and got dressed with a


    serious face.


    I couldn''t help asking, "What''s wrong? What''s the matter?"


    "The police discovered some problems in Lancille Vige. I have to go there!" he replied. After that,


    he packed up and was ready to go out. I simply changed my clothes and followed him.


    He had wanted me to stay at home, but he knew that I wouldn''t agree to it, so he decided to let me


    come with him.


    After catching thest flight, we slept on the ne for a while. It was still dark when we arrived in


    Asherton. After returning to the vi, we rested for around two hours before getting up and going to


    the Lancille Vige.
