Chapter 415 I Will Cook Personally Tonight (1/2)

A weak smile crept on Moore's face as he heard the hesitation in Jean's voice. He knew something was up, and it only gave Jean a dilemma, so he said,”That is, if tonight's inconvenient for you, we can have an appointment next time you're available. I really just called to tell you that I have been discharged.”

Jean's eyes widened in surprise. ”What? You're discharged from the hospital?” Jean felt excitement build inside her after hearing the news. In a high-pitched and giddy voice, she inquired again,”Are you sure that you are all right now to leave the hospital? Don't you need to take a reexamination?”

”Well, I've taken the examination already, and the results show that I am recovering very well. The doctor then released me and told me that I only need to take more rest at home, so I can be completely healed.” Moore then let out a sigh of relief as he told Jean about this.

Jean smiled brightly. ”That's wonderful! It's great to hear such good news!” Jean exclaimed with a huge smile plastered on her face. She felt thrilled to hear this, and indeed she felt like this is the best news she had heard recently ever since the kidnap. With excitement evident on her tone, she said,”Well, you see, the reason why I was hesitant in the first place was because I promised Zed that I will cook dinner for him tonight. But after hearing such exciting news from you, I'm definite that he can wait, and yours calls for a celebration. What do you think about making a dinner reservation? Let's say, how about Shangri-La Restaurant?”

Moore's eyebrows furrowed in thought. ”Wait! Did I hear it clearly that you were supposed to cook dinner by yourself tonight?” In his voice, Moore obviously took no interest in having dinner in a restaurant but showed great interest when he heard that Jean was about to cook personally.

”Well, yes,” Jean replied with a nod even though Moore couldn't see that gesture. ”However, I am not a good cook, and I can only cook several dishes, so whatever you're planning, I don't think I dare to invite you to my home.”

”Oh no, Jean! That's totally fine for me.” Moore hastily interrupted Jean and showed his full interest in eating the food cooked by Jean. ”Since my food had been served by the hospital staff, I am craving for home cooked dishes. Especially that you will cook tonight, I will love every dish you cook. I swear!”

Jean couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Moore was capable of saying such sweet words as Zed.

Since Moore assured Jean that he was completely okay with her dishes, Jean could only nod her head in agreement. She asked,”Okay, fine, just don't blame me if it ever tastes weird. Anyways, tell me what dishes you like so that I will prepare it.”

”Nothing in particular. Just cook what you are good at, but don't make it too complicated. Any dish you cook will be fine for me.” Moore smiled as Jean finally assented and then continued,”Well then, I will take my belongings back home first before I head to your home.”

”Wait, are you still at the hospital right now?” Jean asked.

”Yes, I just finished the discharge procedures. These forms are too tedious,” Moore replied with a frown on his face.

”Oh, really? Okay, listen, just stay there, and I will send someone to pick you up. He can send you home first, so you can drop your belongings and then he will drive you to my home.” Jean smiled at herself. She felt like a really good planner.

Moore's eyes widened. He didn't want to trouble her too much so he hastily turned down her kind offer. ”Oh no! That would
