My Love, Enlighten me

Chapter 465 Being Earthy and Down-to-earth

Gloria got Kenny's reply and hung up without asking other questions.

On the other hand, Kenny stared at the phone that was hung up and looked at it for a long time before putting it down thoughtfully.

...

After Kenny got off work, he first went back to his own villa and then brought Tina with him to Gloria's place.

When they arrived, Gloria was still preparing the meal.

She was making a stew.

Mushrooms were added to the stew, which gave off a strong fragrance.

As soon as Tina entered the door and smelled the scent, she ran directly to the kitchen, "It smells so good!"

Her voice was soft and a bit loud, but it did not sound exaggerated.

Gloria heard her voice and walked out of the kitchen.

"Tina?" It didn't occur to her that Kenny would come with Tina.

"Mommy!" Tina ran over and hugged Gloria's leg, "I miss you so much!"

Gloria was softened by her voice, and picked her up, "Mommy misses Tina too."

Tina smacked her mouth, looked around with her round eyes and stuck her head into the kitchen, "What smells so good!"

Gloria laughed and carried her into the kitchen, saying as she walked, "It's mommy's cooking. It'll smell even better later..."

There was a small stool in the kitchen, which was specially prepared for Tina. Sometimes when she wanted to wash bowls or plates or something, she would put it under her feet to raise her.

As soon as Gloria put her on the ground, she ran to carry the small stool. She put it in front of the gas stove, and was about to stand on it.

The small stool was a little close to the gas stove. Gloria carried her and moved the small stool outwards a bit before let Tina stand on it.

She lifted the lid of the pot and let Tina sniff it.

"Does it smell good?"

"Yes, yes!" Tina stared at the pot eagerly, and raised her small hands involuntarily, as if she was about to reach into the pot in the next second.

Gloria hurriedly put the lid back and carried Tina down.

At this time, she suddenly remembered and asked Tina, "Where is Corny?"

"Corny ha-ha..." Tina probably thought it was a bit funny for Gloria to call him "Corny" just like she did, so she laughed after pronouncing it.

Gloria stroke her head and lifted her feet to go out.

She occupied herself in coaxing Tina and almost forgot that Kenny was here.

When she went out of the kitchen, she saw Kenny sitting on the sofa, leaning slightly, reaching out and taking a cup on the coffee table in front of the sofa, and pouring water for himself with the kettle.

Gloria had a habit of putting a kettle and cups on the coffee table.

Kenny poured water for himself, took a sip, and put it back, frowning slightly, and looking indifferent.

It was normal for ordinary people to pour themselves a glass of water.

But when Kenny did this, he looked earthy and down-to-earth.

"Corny!"

Tina ran out behind Gloria and ran directly to Kenny.

She curiously took a cup from the tray on the coffee table, handed it to Kenny, blinked and said, "I want to drink water too."

Kenny glanced at her, pressing his lips expressionlessly to get the kettle.

Tina held the cup obliquely. Kenny reached out and helped her, "Hold the cup a little straighter."

"Okay." Tina corrected the position of holding the cup, but it was still a bit oblique.

Kenny had gradually accepted Tina and the naivety of children in everyday life, so he didn't correct her anymore.

He poured Tina a small half-cup of water, then put the kettle back, "Well, drink it."

It was actually only a quarter of a cup of water.

Tina pouted and looked dissatisfied, "It's too little, so little..."

Kenny didn't even blink, and just spit out two words, "Drink it."

Tina was instantly intimidated and carefully brought her cup to her mouth.

As she drank the water, she sneaked a glance at Kenny.

Realizing that when she peeked at Kenny, Kenny was also looking at her, she immediately shook, and hurriedly poured the water in the cup into her throat.

After drinking it up, she raised the cup to Kenny with a look of seeking praise, "Daddydy, I've drank it up."

"I'll reward you with another cup of it." Kenny said, going to get the kettle.

Tina widened her eyes, turned around and ran away, "No, I'm not drinking it."

Kenny saw that the little girl ran away, so he withdrew his hand. He turned his head and looked at Gloria who had been watching them for a while.

When Gloria saw Kenny looking at her, she smiled at him, "The dinner will be ready soon."

Kenny sneered without rhyme or reason.

When he came in, Gloria had only Tina in her eyes. She didn't even take a look at him.

Gloria was actually a little bit confused about Kenny's sudden sneer. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

But Tina was here. She left it aside and made the dinner first.

When the dinner was ready, Tina went to the kitchen to get her own bowl.

To Gloria's surprise, Tina went ahead to get her bowl out, and Kenny went in after her to get the bowl as well.

Mr. Clarke had to pour water by himself and got the bowl by himself when he was at her place...

Gloria felt a little guilty.

She had completely put aside the Kenny who used to help her wash the dishes.

During the meal, Kenny and Gloria didn't talk much, while only Tina was chattering.

However, when the meal was over, it rained heavily suddenly.

The rain was still a bit heavy, and it hit the glass windows with loud noises.

Tina stood by the window, touched the drops of water through the glass, turned to Kenny and said, "It's raining."

Kenny kept silent.

Tina raised her volume, "Corny, it's raining!"

Kenny's tone was a little less cold and a little more helpless, "I've heard you."

Why did children always have so much to say?

Tina got Kenny's response and ran to the kitchen contentedly.

Kenny looked at her bouncing figure and raised his eyebrow...

Children's mind was really strange. They could be so happy for such a small thing.

After Gloria cleaned up the kitchen, she came out and saw Kenny standing by the window and watching the rain.

She looked at the pouring rain outside the window, and subconsciously said, "It's raining heavily, and it's getting late. Why don't you stay here for a night."

It was not a conferential tone, but an extremely natural tone of concern.

Kenny turned his head and looked at her. Gloria also realized that what she said was a bit misleading, biting her lip and said, "I have more than one room here. Or I can also sleep with Tina, and you can sleep in the master bedroom."

Kenny looked away and said coldly, "No need."
