Mitchel felt even more embarrassed by this. He never expected Matteo to come in just in time to catch his words. Annoyed, he asked, “What did you come in for?”
Matteo quickly replied, “I brought you the soup.”
Matteo had noticed the soup Raegan prepared had spilled, so he saved what was left in a thermos, thinking Mitchel was looking forward to taking a sip. He hadn’t expected to stumble upon such an amusing chat.
Without saying much, Matteo served a bowl of soup, placing it carefully in front of Mitchel. As he turned around, he caught sight of Raegan’s bare feet. He thought he had never seen such beautiful feet before. The toes reminded him of pearls, round, shiny, and adorable. He found himself staring at Raegan’s feet a bit too long.
Suddenly, a cough from Mitchel snapped Matteo out of his daze.
Mitchel was giving Matteo a cold look, as if warning him.
Matteo flinched, quickly ducked his head, and decided it was best to leave.
However, after Mitchel picked up the soup and tasted it, he told Matteo, “Finish the rest.”
Matteo was surprised. He never thought Mitchel would share what Raegan had prepared with him.
Back when Raegan prepared the nutritional soup, Matteo had been watching eagerly from the side, having enjoyed Raegan’s cooking before, which was incredibly delicious.
Raegan looked uneasy, observing Matteo cheerfully take the thermos and leave. She silently hoped that Matteo wouldn’t drink it.
Mitchel eyed the creamy white soup and asked, “Did you make this?”
“Yeah,” Raegan replied, feeling a bit guilty. “I really put effort into it, almost burnt my fingers.”

Mitchel gave a small smile, his tone cool but kind. “That sounds challenging.”
With that, he lifted the bowl.
Seeing the medicine on her toes, which Mitchel had applied for her, Raegan was hesitant. He was thorough and thoughtful toward her. But the soup she prepared for him was… Perhaps she was being a Little unfair…
As Mitchel was about to take a sip, Raegan quickly said, “You might want to think twice before drinking that.”
But as those words escaped Raegan’s lips, Mitchel had already finished it in one go.
Raegan stared as he placed the empty bowl down. She was astounded.

After finishing the soup, she had mixed in a whole bottle of white pepper. It was supposed to be sharp and unpleasant to taste.
“Are you feeling alright?” Raegan gazed into his eyes, searching for any sign of discomfort.
Noticing his frown and silence, Raegan felt a wave of worry wash over her. “Didn’t I warn you against drinking that?”
Just as she was about to fetch him some water, on her bare feet, he caught her wrist and gently pulled her close to him.
“It’s actually not bad,” he remarked.
