Chapter 457 She Belonged To Me (1/2)

Jack came home early as usual.

An appetizing aroma greeted him as soon as he opened the adorned door. He sniffed and this made him very hungry. He walked slowly to follow the smell and it led to the kitchen, where he saw a familiar figure.

”Emily? Are you cooking?” Jack was already inside the kitchen with one long stride.

Emily turned to him with a red apron covered her huge belly and her hair was slightly unkempt. For Jack, she was certainly a sight to behold. She stopped her cooking and said, ”You're home?”

”Yes,” Jack answered with a sincere smile. Jack reached out for her hands and kissed them lightly and said, ”You don't have to do that. We have our cooks, remember?”

”It's okay. I was bored and I want to cook sometimes,” Emily chuckled.

”Do I have a share?”

Emily tilted her head and looked at him, ”What do you think?”

Jack was thrilled with her answer. 'Did this mean she cooked for me?' Jack wondered happily. He knew that she still loved him, even just for a little and so he still got the chance to win her back.

Jack thought, 'I should have killed Jacob earlier than planned. I wasted so much time to be with Emily.'

”Let me help you. It's okay. You can go and rest if you're tired.” Jack only cared about whether Emily still loved him or not. She loved him and wanted to cook for him, and that was enough. How would he want her to get tired?

Emily turned down his offer, but he insisted. They cooked together and were joined by their two cooks in the kitchen.

Jack couldn't take his eyes off from her. He would glance at her from time to time even when he was chopping that he almost cut his finger. He couldn't get enough of this, of her.

When Jacob was alive, he could only glance at Emily from afar for fear of being caught. But now, he was free to do that openly.

This gave him so much pleasure.
