Chapter 230

As soon as Katherine looked back at the man she was with, she met his glinting eyes.

Zack intently looked at her and suddenly said, "That was nice of you."

Katherine didn't mind what he said and just pushed the beef slices in front of him.

"Anyway, I'd just ordered a lot, and I doubted if I could finish it all?” she commented dryly.

Seeing Katherine's gesture, he quickly understood that she intended for him to cook the food himself
on the tabletop grill.

Zack could only chuckle awkwardly and remained still.

With a hopeful expression, he said, "But I don’t know how to cook it"

The hell did she care if he didn't know how to cook? Katherine unusually paused for a while.She looked
at Zack and flashed an insincere smile.

"Then, do you want me to cook for you?"

She sarcastically thought, ‘Are you dreaming?’

"Yes, please.My stomach was now hurting a little’ Zack answered, acting pitifully.

Indeed.

Zack had a stomach problem, and it was quite serious.

But of course, Katherine didn't mind.

What did that have to do with her? It was his business, not hers.



"Oh.” Katherine replied nonchalantly but still didn't intend to help him out.

Furthermore, she had never served someone as demanding as him in her entire life.So, she really
didn't plan to do anything nor care about his painful stomach.

Katherine couldn't even tolerate Zack's presence.

Who does he think he was to request her to cook for him? At this time, a young woman suddenly
walked over and looked straight at Zack.

"Hey, handsome, can I add you on Telegram?" Though the woman was quite attractive, she was
instantly overshadowed when standing beside Katherine.

Zack glanced at Katherine and rejected her coldly.

"No."

With an ingratiating smile on her face, the woman asked, "Are you afraid that your little sister will
mind?"

She paused, then turned to Katherine, "Little sister, don't misunderstand.I simply want to add your
brother on Telegram to thank him for giving us the goose blood soup"

‘What sister?’ Zack grimaced and felt irritated with how oblivious this woman was.

"Please don't interrupt our meal."

The woman looked at Zack with her lips pursed.

Although she felt insulted, she could only resentfully leave after seeing his chilly expression.



Katherine set down her fork and took a tissue to wipe the grease on the corner of her lips when she
was a bit full.

As she put down the used tissue, Katherine noticed Zack put the beef slices into the tabletop grill.

Then he impatiently asked her, "How long will it be cooked?"

Katherine felt that Zack was really miserable.

After sitting for half an hour, he only ate the vegetable side dish.

"After the meat changes color’ she answered in a rare act of kindness.

Zack curiously asked, "How about now?"

Katherine glanced at it and stabbed it with a fork.

She then lightly replied, "Not yet."

Zack was quite observant.He knew when it was done after seeing the same dish she made a while
ago.

Katherine looked at the time.She planned to go to the police station as Atty.

Parson should be there now.

Before going, she casually informed Zack, "I've already paid the bill.I'll go first.Zack, however, raised
his hand and grasped her wrist as soon as she stood up.

"Not so fast.Wait for me first? he insisted.Zack glanced at her.

Although he had a light expression on his face, his tone was unyielding.



Katherine gave a tsk.

"Then, I'll go for a walk to aid my digestion."

Zack remained silent, but his grip on her wrist became a little tighter, clearly indicating that he
disagreed with her.

Katherine tried to struggle for a moment, but she couldn't break free.

She frowned and coldly said, "Let go!"

Zack didn't mind her apparent dissatisfaction and continued, "I'll come with you after I finish eating, so
stay still"

Just now, he discovered that this grilled beef was not that bad compared to how it looked.

Katherine was irritated, but she couldn't get away.

Moreover, there were quite a few people in there, so she didn't want to cause a commotion.She had no
choice but to sit still.

"Then let go of me.I promise I'll wait for you’

Hearing her words, Zack eventually let go.

After being released from his grip, Katherine took her hand back and examined her swollen wrist.

She was a little annoyed, so she purposefully said to Zack, "Oh, by the way, just now, I forgot to switch
the utensils I was using and mistakenly used it on the dish you were eating"

Zack, who was enjoying his food, looked at her and carelessly said, "I don't mind”



Hearing his casual reply, Katherine felt irritated, realizing that his reaction was far from what she had
expected.

"Aren't you a neat freak?" she asked and laughed angrily.

Suddenly, she recalled her first time serving Zack just to win his affection.

At that time, she also forgot to use the serving spoon and eagerly served him some soup.

After placing the bowl in front of him, Zack immediately set it aside and asked for a new one.

Yes, he didn't say anything, but his actions felt like a slap to her face.

Even though that happened after such a long time, Katherine still felt a dull ache in her heart.
