The senior student's voice was full of surprise: "That's great, Liana! With your joining, the education of the children in the mountain village will be more powerful! I thank you on their behalf! You pack your luggage, we will set off in three days!" Her excitement infected me, and a smile appeared on my lips.
After hanging up the phone, my husband, who had just returned from a business trip, walked in. Ethan was wearing a well-fitting suit, which made him look handsome and calm. However, I couldn't help but think of the wedding photo of him embracing his little girl. Their smiling faces were like sharp needles, piercing me so hard that I couldn't breathe.
" You cooked so many dishes again? Didn't I tell you? Don't bother making these. We can't finish them at all." Ethan didn't notice my pale face. His eyes fell on the dining table, and he frowned and scolded me in a low voice.
These are the fresh vegetables I bought after getting up early, and the meals I made carefully. Looking around, they are all Ethan's favorites. He is very picky about food. In the past, when he came back from a business trip, he always complained to me that the food outside was not to his taste, and he still liked the dishes I cooked the most. My heart was once full of sweetness, and I was willing to wash my hands and cook soup for the one I loved. But at this moment, there was no more surprise and love in his eyes, but full of disgust. My heart was cold.
" I will take care of it, don't worry." Ethan 's eyes fell on me, and before he could say anything, the phone rang. "Anian, I feel a little unwell, can you come to see me?" I clearly heard the soft and sticky accent of Ethan's childhood sweetheart Serena coming from the other end of the phone. Ethan was visibly panicked and hurriedly asked about her condition. "It's nothing serious, just a little dizzy." Ethan said without hesitation, "Wait a minute, I'll be there right away."
After saying that, Ethan grabbed the car keys and hurriedly explained to me: "Serena is not feeling well, I'll go over to see her. You don't have to wait for me for dinner." After saying that, he got up in a hurry without even waiting for my response.
The house returned to silence, and I looked at the food on the table in loneliness. My phone dinged, and I opened it. It was a message from Serena: [Sister Liana, Anian is just worried about me, don't be angry! ] Then she sent a photo of Ethan carefully searching the medicine box. I spread out my palm, and there was a wound on my index finger covered with a Band-Aid. It was a scratch I accidentally made when I was expecting to cook for Ethan. But Ethan didn't notice it at all. I felt sour inside and smiled bitterly.
