Chapter 48

When Hailey made eye contact with Yarrick, she immediately began to blush. So, this was what her husband looked like! "Do you want to go have dinner, honey?" Yarrick asked. "Okay," Hailey replied in a small voice. Yarrick held her hand and watched as she bashfully got off the bed and put on her slippers. Then, the pair walked out of the bedroom hand-in-hand. Once they entered the kitchen, Hailey let go of Yarrick's hand and said softly, "Let me set up the table, darling. Clara's cooking is to die for." As the older one in the relationship, Hailey had a strong urge to take care of Yarrick—who was 20 years younger than her. "I can't let you do that!" He stopped her. "Go sit at the table, honey. I'll take care of it." Hailey was still sick. How could he let her do any chores? Despite not knowing what she was diagnosed with, he insisted that she rest and focus on her recovery. Her body was very weak at the moment. "Okay." Hailey watched as Yarrick adeptly set up the table.
