Khloe nodded. She remembered that Nick didn\u2019t like sweets. Ahe asked if he could handle spicy food.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When he paused for a second, she understood immediately. \u201cAll right,\u201d she said softly. \u201cNo sweets, no spice for Nick.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cA little is fine,\u201d Nick replied. He wasn\u2019t picky, though he rarely ate anything with a strong flavor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe didn\u2019t press further. She tied an apron around her waist and began to cook.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The kitchen was semi-open, so her every movement was visible from where he sat. Her quiet focus and the way she moved seemed to draw his gaze, and he found he couldn\u2019t look away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For the first time, he began to understand why his grandparents\u2013those two old, persistent matchmakers-kept worrying about his marriage.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a family like the Hunts, affection was always secondary to profit. His parents had separated before he was even born. Only his grandparents had truly loved each other, sharing nearly a lifetime together.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2018A person who knows when you\u2019re cold or tired, someone who stays by your side year after year-what\u2019s wrong with that?\u2019 His grandmother\u2019s voice echoed faintly in his mind. \u2018Do you plan to bury yourself in work forever? Wouldn\u2019t it be nice, when you come home, to have someone cook a meal for you, or simply sit and eat with you?\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n
By the time the memory ended, Khloe had already set the dishes on the table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Three dishes and a soup. Nothing extravagant, but varied and fragrant. She\u2019d moved quickly, and her cheeks were flushed from the heat of the stove.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick felt something stir quietly in his chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou didn\u2019t have to make so much,\u201d he said. \u201cThat must\u2019ve been a lot of work.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNot really. Everything was prepped by the chef-I just put it together. When I used to cook for friends, I\u2019d make even more.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her voice was soft and musical. Something in her tone, in its easy gentleness, made the rigid tension in him ease without warning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had always been surrounded by beautiful women, accomplished women, but none had ever made him feel the slightest pull toward closeness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe kept talking as she handed him cutlery. Only then did she notice his eyes still on her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTry it, Nick?\u201d she said, smiling, lips pressed together nervously.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Nick withdrew his gaze. \u201cIt must be nice to be your friend.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course,\u201d she replied lightly, her delicate features softening into a smile. \u201cI never hold back when it comes to people I care about.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen being your husband must be even better,\u201d Nick said calmly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The words made her hand freeze midair, spoon hovering over the table. He spoke with no particular inflection, didn\u2019t even look at her-just took a bite of food and added, \u201cIt tastes good.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Khloe blinked, recovering herself. \u201cI\u2019m glad you like it. But compared to your Michelin-star chefs, it\u2019s still far from perfect.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t underestimate yourself,\u201d he said, meeting her eyes for a moment. \u201cIt\u2019s really good.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Watching him eat and actually enjoy it filled her with a quiet sense of satisfaction.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After dinner, Nick suddenly seemed to remember something. \u201cBy the way,\u201d he said, \u201cthat morning, your phone was with me. A man called-I picked up.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
It had been Trey. Work had distracted Nick, and he\u2019d forgotten to mention it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The moment he said it, Khloe realized who he meant.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So the man Trey had accused her of seeing\u2026 was Nick.\u00a0<\/p>\n
