made her way back to her apartment. In her previous life, she had never spoken up for herself like she did today.
She had been obedient, quiet, and always eager to please. While she was smart in many aspects, she had been
utterly naive when it cto matters of the heart. The truth had been right before her eyes, yet she had been
blind to it. But today, something shifted inside her-like a heavy weight being lifted. For the first time, she felt
free. Determined, she promised herself that she would win every battle against the Miller Family. Failure was not
an option. If she couldn’t succeed this time, then her rebirth would have been in vain. This second chance was a

stepped inside. As she flipped on the lights, her excitement dimmed slightly. “Noodles again,” she muttered to
herself, frowning. The thought of yet another bland, uninspiring meal was hardly comforting. Her mind wandered
to a certain someone. If only | could have that pervert’s amazing cooking again... how great would that be? She
sighed, kicking off her shoes as she walked toward the living room. But then, she froze in her tracks. On the
dining table, an assortment of delicious dishes was spread out, each one looking fresh and appetizing. She
blinked in disbelief, narrowing her eyes at the sight before her. Am | hallucinating? Is my craving for Ethan's food
so bad that I'm imagining it? Rubbing her eyes, she cautiously approached the table. The food wasn’t a mirage-it
was very real. “Welchome,” ca familiar voice from behind her. Startled, Lily spun around, her eyes
widening in shock. Standing there, wearing her pink Minnie Mouse apron, was Ethan. The sight of him was
almost too much-he looked absurdly adorable, his confident grin making her heart skip a beat. For a moment,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe was overwhelmed by an urge to pinch his cheeks. Her hand even twitched toward him, but she quickly
caught herself and pulled back, shaking her head to clear the thought. “Ethan, what are you doing here?” she
demanded, her voice light with both surprise and irritation. He shrugged, his smile unwavering. “I was worried
about you. | figured you wouldn't have eaten properly at that place, so | decided to cook you a proper meal.” His
words caught her off guard, her heart softening against her will. Worried about me? The sentiment warmed her,
but a more pressing thought interrupted her musings. Her gaze turned suspicious as she narrowed her eyes at
him. “Wait a minute. How did you even get into my apartment? Don’t tellyou climbed through the window
again!” Ethan chuckled sheepishly, scratching the back of his neck. “Well, | don’t have a key...” “You-!” Lily’s
anger flared instantly. “How could you be so reckless? Do you have any idea how dangerous that is? Are you out
of your mind? What do you think you are-Spider-Man? What if something happened to you? Have you ever
thought about that? What about me? What would | do if Her rant cto an abrupt halt when she noticed Ethan

#Finished Without a word, Ethan stepped closer, his expression warm yet confident. Before Lily could react, he
leaned in and gave her a gentle peck on the lips. Pulling back slightly, he smiled softly. “Thank you.” She blinked,

only care deeply about those they hold close to their hearts. | don’t know exactly what place | hold in yours, but
knowing | have one-no matter how small-is enough for me.” Before she could respond, Ethan took her by the
arms and began leading her toward her room. “Hey! Where are you taking me?” she asked, bewildered. “Go
freshen up. The food's getting cold,” he said matter-of-factly, nudging her into the washroom. “You can yell at
the door, her arms crossed and her lips pursed in irritation. “How dare he bossaround in my own house?!”
she muttered under her breath. After a moment of grumbling, she sighed. “Fine, I'll let it slide... just this once.
But only because of the food.” She huffed, determined to maintain her pride, even as her stomach growled in
anticipation. She took a quick shower, letting the warm water wash away the tension of the day. After drying off,
she changed into a comfortable set of clothes-a soft t-shirt and loose pants. Running a towel through her damp
hair, she finally emerged, drawn by the tantalizing aroma coming from the dining area. As she approached the
table, her irritation melted away, replaced by a genuine smile. The spread was incredible-an assortment of
delicious dishes, each one more inviting than the last. Sliding into the seat next to Ethan, she looked at him with
a curious expression. “Why did you make so much food? Are we celebrating something?” Ethan's lips curved into
a grin as he carefully placed a portion of food onto her plate. “We're celebrating your victory.” She tilted her
head, a mixture of surprise and skepticism flashing in her eyes. “How do you even know it was a victory?” His
gaze met hers, steady and full of confidence. “I just do,” he said simply, his voice firm yet gentle. “Now, don’t
overthink it. Just eat.” Lily hesitated for a moment, then looked down at her plate. The meal smelled amazing,
and despite her conflicted feelings, her appetite won out. She picked up her chopsticks and began to eat, but her
thoughts were far from the food in front of her. Ethan, please don’t be so kind to me... Her heart grew heavy as
she stole a glance at him from the corner of her eye. He was focused on his own meal, but the sincerity in his
