“What's that?"
Matthew glanced at her and answered, "Seafood."
"Oh, I didn't know we were out of seafood.”
“We're not." There was frozen seafood in their fridge, but she was pregnant, so she needed fresh food.
Erica was confused. ‘Since we have seafood in the fridge, why did he buy more? He is too extravagant! Forget it.
I'm still mad at him, so I won't ask.'
The smell of food soon filled the kitchen. Erica swallowed and waited for Matthew to serve the food.
The noodles were the same old noodles they always ate. But the seafood was quite different.
Erica ate a mouthful of the noodles. ‘Wow! This is amazing.
I love having a husband who can cook!
I have to drive Phoebe away from him, she swore in her head.
Matthew took out two egg tarts from the oven and put them on a plate.
"Tell me if you get full."
“Well, okay!" Erica agreed and took another mouthful of the noodles.
The noodles were so scrumptious that she didn't want to talk.
Seeing that she was eating well, Matthew went upstairs to take a shower.
When he came back down, his wife was pacing back and forth on the carpet, holding her expanding belly in her arms, and every once in a while saying something to the maid cleaning the kitchen.
Finished?" he asked.
"Mm." Erica wanted to tell him that she was stuffed full, but she was still angry with him. So she continued to look down at the traces of her feet stepping on the carpet one after another, which quickly disappeared.
"So you're all done?”
“Mm-hmm!" This time, she didn't raise her head, nor did she look at him.
Matthew looked at her belly thoughtfully. So she was hungrier. He prepared a Large plate of fruits, a large bowl of noodles and two egg tarts for her. She had wolfed them all down.
“What would you like for lunch tomorrow?" Matthew asked. Erica was pregnant now and couldn't just eat whatever she wanted.
She glanced at him and answered cavalierly, “I'LL eat whatever they put in front of me." The chefs Matthew hired were great at their jobs. They stuck to the diet, and the dishes were all delicious. Sweet potato, chicken, walnuts, salmon, garlic, and Lamb. Those dishes were good for her and the babies. What was more, she Liked what they fixed her a lot.
The man raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect her to be so pliant.
