The living room was dimly brightened by the light from the kitchen when Neil entered the house. His gaze swept around the room and he immediately found his girlfriend sitting on the sofa, looking back at him with a smile on her face.
"You're home."
"Why are you not sleeping yet?"
Both of them spoke at the same time.
Edith laughed and stood up to approach him. "I couldn't sleep anyway, so I waited for you. You should be tired. Go have a shower and rest early." A frown appeared on her face. "Have you eaten?"
She seemed to remember that Sophie had mentioned that this man would sometimes skip his meal. Since he went to a business party, Edith was worried that this man would forget to have a proper meal when he was socializing and discussing business.
"I can whip up something quick for you if you haven't."
Neil stared at her for a while and slowly nodded.
"How's a bowl of noodle? Are you okay with that?"
