Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 132 | Forgot To Add Salt

Yuliana panicked.

When she looked up, she saw Christopher was awake and staring at her quietly with half-opened eyelids. After looking at each other for a while, she lowered her eyes and slightly struggled to break free. Christopher didn’t let go of her. Instead, he tightened his grip.

“Let go.”

Christopher inched so close to her that he could clearly see her eyelashes. “You are the one who put your hand over.”

His voice was a little low with a slight sense of mischief.

Yuliana said defiantly. “This is my room and my bed. I didn’t allow you to enter.”

After saying that, Yuliana grew frustrated and thought, “Christopher is the one being childish. How come I am acting like him now?”

Christopher held her hand tightly and pressed it against the pillow. “We are a married couple. Doesn’t that mean what’s yours is also mine?”

Yuliana couldn’t refute his words, but her gaze showed a trace of stubbornness. She didn’t want to admit defeat.

The corner of Christopher’s lips curled up slightly. “Are you going to sleep or not?”

Yuliana, without a doubt, wanted to sleep. She slept late for the entire week, didn’t have time to rest during the day, and finally had the rare chance to rest on a weekend.

She struggled to break free again and glared at Christopher in anger. “You have to let go of me first.”

She couldn’t sleep at all if he were holding her like that.

Christopher held her hand for a while before he let go of it.

Yuliana immediately turned her back to him as soon as he loosened his grip.

A moment later, a rustle sounded from behind, like pieces of fabric rubbing against each other. Then, a cold breeze blew behind her, and she felt a warm body inching closer to hers.

Christopher snuggled into the blanket, with his chest pressed against Yuliana’s back. His arm was wrapped around her waist, and his palm was on her bulged abdomen.

Yuliana felt a little uncomfortable and couldn’t help moving to the edge of the bed, but he gently pulled her closer to him.

“Don’t feel like sleeping?” His deep voice rang in her ear and sounded like a warning.

Yuliana remembered what happened that night.

Her body stiffened instantly.

Christopher came to his senses immediately when he noticed her body reactions.

He pressed his lips against her head, said nothing, and did not do anything more.

Yuliana froze for a moment before her body relaxed slowly.

She thought she couldn’t fall asleep when she was so close to Christopher. However, to her surprise, her eyelids gradually became heavy, and her consciousness slowly faded when she heard his soothing breaths.

The weather was getting colder as it was November, but it was still bearable. It was cloudy this weekend, so it was a good time to snuggle at home.

Recently, she was in a state of hypoxia due to her busy working schedule and pregnancy. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

With that, Yuliana fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, the room was dark.

As she didn’t sleep well, she thought it was still midnight.

When she felt an arm moving around her waist, she regained her senses and realized it was already evening.

She stretched her arm to turn on the lights in the room. As it was a little dazzling, she narrowed her eyes to adapt to it for a while before looking at the time.

It was already half past seven o’clock in the evening.

She had slept for six hours straight without waking up and was amazed by herself.

She had a habit of taking a nap at noon, which usually lasted ten minutes to half an hour.

Yuliana was hungry when she woke up and wanted to eat something, but the arm on her waist restricted her movement.

She turned around and saw Christopher was still asleep, with no sign of waking up any soon.

Yuliana hesitated for a while, pulled his arm away, gently got up from the bed, picked up the hairband at the bedside, and tied her hair into a topknot. After putting on a coat, she went out of the room.

She headed to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took a quick look. There was some spaghetti left which was enough for her and Christopher.

As she thought, she poured water into the pot and boiled it. Then, she took out some spinach and tomatoes. washed them, and cut them. After running some oil into the pan, she started to fry two eggs.

When Christopher came in, Yuliana was busy frying the eggs and putting the spaghetti into the boiling water.

She was inexperienced in cooking. Her body was moving awkwardly. She took a step back immediately after putting in the spaghetti.

He looked at Yuliana at the door for a while, stepped forward, took the spaghetti from her, and asked, ‘Are we cooking all of them?”

Yuliana was stunned for a moment, looked at him, and nodded. “Yes.”

After saying that, she immediately looked at the eggs in the pan beside her. They were already burnt on the

bottom.

She frowned and felt a little flustered.

She was not skillful at cooking and barely managed to fry an egg. However, she messed them up this time.

After the eggs were done, Yuliana put them on the plate and poked them with a fork. She was a little disgusted and thought about throwing them out and making them again.

She then heard Christopher say to her from the side, “Let it be.”

Yuliana looked at him and finally decided to do so.

When the spaghetti was almost done, Yuliana put the tomatoes, spinach, and spaghetti onto two plates with the same design but different sizes.

After Yuliana finished plating, Christopher took them to the dining room. She grabbed two forks and gave one to him after sitting down.

When they took their first bite, they were stunned. Looking at each other speechlessly for a while, they couldn’t help laughing.

Yuliana giggled shyly while Christopher laughed so hard that his chest trembled.

After a while, she blushed and said, “I think I forgot to put salt.”

Christopher suppressed his laugh and nodded. “Do you want me to go get some salt?”

Yuliana hesitated for a while. “I guess.”

Christopher got up and went to the kitchen to get the salt. He added a little salt to her food and asked Yuliana to taste it.

After tasting, Yuliana said, “You can add more.”

Christopher then did as she told.

“That’s enough.”

Christopher gestured at his food with his chin. “What about mine?”

Yuliana paused and tasted the spaghetti on Christopher’s plate. “I think it tastes just right.”

Christopher said, “Then that will do.”

He put the salt back in the kitchen.

After dinner, it was almost nine o’clock.

Yuliana checked the messages on her WhatsApp. There was a mid-term exam this week. As the parents were very concerned about their children’s studies after seeing their results, she received many messages. Yuliana didn’t reply to the messages in the afternoon, which accumulated as time passed. It was almost ten o’clock when she finished answering every one of them.

Christopher was also reading his messages. He looked serious and was not like his usual self.

Yuliana had never seen him like this and thought it was something new.

After glancing at him for a while, she returned to her room, took her clothes, and washed up.

After washing up, she saw Christopher was recording a voice message. His tone was a little cold with a trace of oppression.

As she listened to him talking, she reckoned it had something to do with his work.

Yuliana didn’t listen carefully. She returned to her room and turned on the computer to prepare a Powerpoint presentation.

The door opened after a while. Christopher walked in.

Yuliana looked at him and said nothing. Then, she shifted her gaze back to the computer screen.

Christopher walked straight to the closet. When he was reaching for some clean clothes, he suddenly paused

He extended his arm and took out a brown coat hanging in the closet.

At a glance, he could tell it was a man’s clothes. The logo was prominent, and it was the brand he often wore. He turned to look at Yuliana and asked, “Did you buy this?”

Hearing his words, Yuliana subconsciously turned around and saw the coat in his hand. She remained silent for a while

“I saw it when I went shopping with my colleagues. It looked nice, so I bought it.”

Her words sounded slightly vague. She paused for a second and added, “If you don’t like it, just leave it.” Christopher smiled and said, “Who said I don’t like it?”
