My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 500

Chapter 500:

Carrie took two more bites before leaning back, rubbing her stomach. “I can’t eat anymore. What a waste.”

Without hesitation, Kristopher brought the drumstick to his own mouth, taking a bite of her leftovers.

Carrie froze, her heart skipping a beat. Kristopher—who had always been so meticulous, so particular—was

eating her leftovers without a second thought. It wasn’t the act itself that stunned her, but the intimacy of it. To

her, this small gesture felt deeper than any physical closeness they had shared.

It was an unspoken expression of trust and care, something she had always found difficult to give or accept.

Even parents only ate their children’s leftovers when they were young.

Once Kristopher was done with the drumstick, Carrie leaned her head on his leg and looked up at him, pouting

playfully. “I want to brush my teeth.”

She had strict preferences for her sleep—no light, no noise, the AC set to a cooler temperature, thick blankets,

and pillowcases made of silk. She couldn't sleep if there was even a hint of food taste left in her mouth.

Kristopher set the wonton bowl on the bedside table. “Do you wantto carry you?”

Carrie pouted again. “No, | don’t feel like moving. | just want to brush my teeth in bed.”

Kristopher got up. “Wait here.”

He cleaned the bedside table with a wipe, opened the window to let in fresh air, and then took out the trash.

Carrie was used to seeing him do these little homey things. Once he had disposed of the trash, Kristopher

returned to the bedroom and then made his way to the bathroom.

A few moments later, he reappeared, carrying a small basin in his hands. As he walked over to the bed, he

carefully set the basin down. Inside, there was a cup of water and a toothbrush, already loaded with toothpaste,

waiting to be used.

Carrie propped herself up in bed and began brushing her teeth, taking her tto rinse her mouth afterward.

When she was finished, Kristopher reached for a disposable face towel and gently wiped away the remnants of

toothpaste from the corners of her mouth.

Feeling satisfied, Carrie snuggled back into the warmth of the covers. Kristopher cleaned up, turned off the

lights, and slipped into bed beside her. He pulled the blankets around them both, drawing her close and

wrapping his arms around her small, warm body.

The next morning, Carrie woke up early. Before even opening her eyes, she could smell a fresh scent in the air.

Carrie blinked in surprise as her eyes landed on a bouquet leaning gracefully against the bedside table. The

arrangement was stunning, with smoky purple Manta roses rising one after another, their long stems stretching

up to about a meter in length. It was a long-stemmed rose bouquet that had been trending online lately.

The day before, while watching short clips on social media, she’d casually mentioned it to Kristopher. “This is

what a girl's candy stick should be.” She certainly hadn't expected Kristopher to remember it, let alone rush out

first thing in the morning to get exactly what she’d mentioned.

Compared to the huge, expensive gifts worth millions at home, this bouquet seemed small and simple. But the

thoughtfulness behind it was enough to lift her spirits right away. Waking up to such a lovely surprise made

Carrie feel excited about the day ahead. Any last bit of sleepiness was gone, replaced by happiness.
