Chapter 790
Ivan turned over and got out of bed. He went downstairs to pour a glass of warm water for Haley, and handed her two pills. He watched her take the medicine before holding her and going back to sleep.
Haley had a restless night and only drifted off as dawn approached.
When she woke up, the sky outside was bright, and sunlight streamed in, filling the room with tranquility.
Haley went to brush her teeth and wash up, casually tying her hair before heading downstairs.
The dining room was filled with laughter from the children. Ivan sat at the table, peeling an egg for Angela.
Such a warm and ordinary scene made Haley's heart feel warm.
As she was about to speak, her cheeks began to itch again, especially her right cheek, where it felt as if countless tiny ants were crawling beneath the skin, causing a severe itching sensation without pain.
She turned back to take two pills before returning to the dining room.
"Mommy, good morning."
"Good morning, Mommy. Come have breakfast. Daddy made this special breakfast for you."
Haley looked at the steaming breakfast on the table in surprise and said, "You can make breakfast?"
Ivan coughed and said, "The chef just taught me step by step. Try it and see if it tastes good."
Haley took a bite and said, "It tastes great. It seems you have a talent for cooking."
"Is it really that good?" Owen blinked his eyes. "Mommy, I want to try a bite too."
Haley fed Owen some food.
Owen quickly spat it out onto the table and said, "It's not good at all, Mommy, you're lying."
Haley fell silent.
The taste was clearly okay; how was she lying?
Keith said, "Let me try."
He stepped forward and took a bite. When he tasted it, he paused noticeably, then swallowed the food with difficulty and said quietly, "It's just average."
She thought, 'Is there something wrong with my taste buds?'
She took another bite and still thought it tasted quite good, not much different from the breakfast she usually made.
Todd frowned suspiciously, "I want to have a bite too."
"Todd, don't eat it," Angela said, covering her mouth and laughing. "This is a special breakfast Daddy made for Mommy. Only Mommy can taste the love in it. If you eat it all, Mommy will only have soup left."
Haley looked at Angela with a smile. "Where did you learn that?"
"Mommy, Angela was secretly reading a novel yesterday!" Owen quickly tattled. "The title is 'The Dominant Man Falls in Love with Me.'"
Both Haley and Ivan fell silent.
Was it really appropriate for Angela to be reading such novels at such a young age?
Angela stuck out her tongue guiltily. "I wasn't reading a novel, I was learning new words."
Haley got up and took four classic books from the shelf. "Finish reading these classics first, and then I won't stop you from reading whatever you want."
After reading the classics, Angela's aesthetic ability would greatly improve, and she would have no interest in those novels.
