Chapter 1705
Trevor felt that she was a little different that day, but he could not tell exactly what was different. His eyes fell on her bright and charming face.
"Is this a midnight snack? Drinking coffee at night?" Was she not afraid of not falling asleep!
Moreover, this cake had cream in it. It looked like very fattening food. Although she would bake cakes occasionally at night, they were mostly light steamed cakes, or an occasional tart. Even if she did it occasionally, it was obvious that she was very disciplined and paid attention to her figure.
After eating so much noodles plus meat in the evening, she still served a midnight snack of cake, which surprised Trevor a lot. "What's wrong? Are you going to indulge yourself after two days of illness?"
"I suddenly felt like drinking it, so I made a cup! This is the Tiramisu that I specially made for you. Technically, it tastes best after being chilled for at least a few hours, but..."
She couldn't wait any longer!
There was a rather warm origin story to the Tiramisu. It was said that during World War II, an Itawan soldier was about to go on an expedition, but there was nothing left in his family. For the sake of giving him dry food, his wife had added all of the biscuits and bread she could eat into a cake, and that pastry was called Tiramisu. Whenever this soldier ate food on the battlefield, Tiramisu would make him think of his home, and then think of the people he loved at home. Tiramisu, in Itawan language, meant 'take me with you' and 'remember me', bringing not only delicious food, but also love and happiness!
Even though what she made wasn't the most authentic Tiramisu, it was still a Tiramisu cake.
The reason why she chose this kind of cake was because she felt that this kind of cake was very similar to her current mood: She wanted to part with him, but she was reluctant. The future was unpredictable. She hoped that he would eat Tiramisu and remember this night, regardless of what kind of mood he was in.
After a pause, she continued, "But-I want to eat now! For the sake of my hard work, just eat a bit with me!"
Victoria gave him a small piece of the cut cake and put a spoon aside.
There were two glasses on the tray. One was a pure black coffee, which had no milk or sugar. It used to be Trevor's favorite, but now it was only drunk when he worked overtime or occasionally thought of it. When he was with her, he was used to adding milk and sugar like her from time to time, but he drank less of the pure black coffee. The other was a cup of Cappuccino which Victoria often drank. That day, the latte art drawn on the coffee was two hearts intertwined, and it was very delicate.
As soon as Victoria took back her hand, Trevor had already lifted up the cup and was about to put it in her hand. But before he could, Victoria stopped, held it, and pushed it to him.
"Let's switch it up today! I want to taste your 'bitterness', and you can enjoy the 'sweetness' of my love. We can share joy and suffering together, right?"
Once again, Trevor was shocked. "This pure black coffee was prepared for her? Is she going to drink it in the evening?"
She never liked the bitter taste. Every time he drank it, she would make fun of him. In the end, Frederick would often come up with an excuse. But on this day, everything changed.
When he was in a daze, Victoria had placed the coffee in his hand and kept the tray away. In front of both of them was a delicate Tiramisu cake and two different and unique drinks. When put together, it was a cup of black coffee and a cup with two hearts, as if her heart was in his cup, with the same unique taste.
In fact, what Victoria loved to drink was ordinary coffee, and Cappuccino was just an occasional change. But on this day, she was very fond of it, and the cup specially served also had a unique meaning.
The bitter taste was mixed with sweetness. It was still the same as before.
The Cappuccino had a lot of secret meaning behind it. It represented love, and also the meaning of comprehending life. There was sweetness mixed in the bitterness, and there was pleasure in pain. Most importantly, it also indicated that it was an unchanging wait; a wait that contained sweetness and bitterness, a heart of loyalty, an unchanging wait!
Some words couldn't be said directly, some were bitter, just like this night's coffee. She just needed to bear it alone. Victoria felt that this love of Tiramisu and Cappuccino was the most important thing for him, so she specially prepared this for him.
She smiled all the way, picked up the coffee, and took a sip. "I really want to drink it today. It's really a different enjoyment!"
Putting down the cup and cutting a little cake, Victoria sent it to Trevor's lips. "I made it myself. Even if you don't like it, you should eat it. Don't waste it!"
Although he did not like desserts, she did not reduce the amount of sugar used on this day. The sweet taste might have to remain between his lips and teeth in the future.
If it could last for a long time, she would be willing to lose her teeth.
Trevor shook his head and took it. "How naughty! How overbearing!"
While eating, Trevor raised his hand to pat her on the nose. "The dessert she made is definitely more than one and a half stars more exquisite than her cooking."
In fact, after being with her for a long time, he probably understood why she was like this, because cooking required using a stove, while baking used an oven! When she was a child, she was almost burned by hot oil. Although it was not serious, it did leave some trauma. Therefore, Victoria sometimes was obviously afraid of fire, not to mention cooking on a gas stove.
Others used hot
oil to cook dishes,
while she used it to heat the oil. When the oil was heated, she would wait for the oil to cool down before adding the food. Hence, the dishes she cooked tasted strange. Of course, her cooking was not always that bad. Although it was not very delicious, the taste was still acceptable, and there were often times when it was okay. For
example, that night, her braised pork was quite good, although it was slightly charred.
After eating a bite, Trevor fed her a bit more, and then he took a sip of the coffee.
He couldn't help but shake his head. "Hmm, it's so sweet! No wonder you often want to lose weight!"
How much sugar did she add?
"Hee hee."
Smiling, Victoria fed him cake again. "I won't lose weight in the future, because I suddenly thought of a better way—"
"What's that?"
Trevor raised his eyebrows curiously and stuffed a soft cake into his mouth. He immediately understood. "Oh, does she want to feed him until he's fat, so she can be arrogant?"
Sure enough, the next second, Victoria gestured with her hands and said with a smile, "As long as you are much fatter than me forever, I won't stop!"
"You don't have to lose weight. Even if you're much heavier than me, I won't abandon you! Vicky, you're the one I love!"
Appearance might have used to be a
deciding factor, but Trevor now
firmly believed that the person henoveldrama
loved the most was the beautiful
soul beneath this body. Perhaps when she rushed out to stand in front of Anthony and yelled at him, he had fallen in love with this foolish woman who knew the danger but still risked her life for the sake of her lover!
Such true love was so precious in this impetuous and cruel world!
"Hee hee."
Smiling, Victoria had an impulse to cry.
Then they stuffed their mouths with cakes. In the end, they ate half of the cake respectively, and the coffee and the Cappuccino were also left with half. One's mouth was full of bitterness, while the other one was sweet.
Getting up, Victoria was pushed into the bathroom by him. The two people messed around a long time, until finally, Trevor knocked out first.
She looked straight at the man next to her with his eyes closed, caressing the chiseled face with her soft fingertips, and tears finally rolled down Victoria's face.
"Trevor, I'm sorry..."
That night, Victoria did not close her eyes all night. She just lay in front of him and looked up at him. It was just dawn. When there was movement downstairs, she climbed up and kissed Trevor on his lips for the last time. She tucked him in reluctantly, took her purse and went out as usual.
On this day, when Trevor opened his eyes, it was already ten o'clock. He felt groggy and tired. He knocked on his head and couldn't help but grin. What happened? Was she too tired the night before? Why did he sleep so hard?
He was not that tired when he indulged himself in sex before, not to mention that
he restrained himself and thought it was good the night before!
He looked through his phone and found that there were a lot of missed calls, but he didn't hear them. How could he have slept so soundly?
All kinds of filthy images flashed across his mind. He giggled and his rough fingers unconsciously touched his lips. "Hehe..."
At the same time, he also casually skimmed through his phone and then saw Victoria's message.
"Dear, I'm leaving for a while. I'll be in Laramie City for two days. You don't have to worry about me. I'll be with a group of people. If you can't contact me, you don't have to worry about me. Don't miss me. You must be busy."
She also added a naughty emoji and a crying emoji.
Looking at it, Trevor didn't think about it at all. He couldn't help but smile and muttered to himself, "No wonder you were so enthusiastic last night. It turned out that you were going out for two days-"
Trevor shook his head and locked
his phone. Then, he went into the bathroom and took a cold shower He felt that his mind was instantly clear. Although he had been delayed for the whole morning, he still had a lot of things to do because he missed an important meeting. He went to the company and got busy. Then, he took part in two activities. He thought that since Victoria would not be there for two days, he did not even go home. He went straight to deal with all kinds of work. He thought that if he did not have enough work at hand, he could
spend more time with her.
On this day, after seeing his customers in the club, he couldn't help but turn to his
cell phone again. Why was there still no reply?
What do you think?
