Convincing Her (Jen And Lucas) Chapter 199 - Spoon-Fed

The following morning, Lucas woke up before Jen for the first time and quickly turned off his alarm before he hopped off the bed and went to the bathroom as he stretched his rested joints his muscles flexing as he did so.

He quickly showered and brushed his teeth and shaved the stubble that had grown on his face before leaving the bathroom. He saw that Jen was still asleep even after he showered.

He didn't wake her up since she seemed to be tired from the previous day's events and went to the walk-in closet to dress up in a checkered dark blue suit before he took went to take his things and went downstairs. 

He had gotten used to having breakfast in the morning and he was feeling even hungrier since he hadn't had any dinner the previous night.

He walked into the kitchen and immediately, the smell of food a.s.saulted him. When he looked around, he saw that the light in the oven was on and that there was food inside.

Jen hadn't gotten the time to pack it away since they had suddenly gotten busy. He had prepared himself to eat cereal that morning but seeing the food made him feel like G.o.d was really looking after him. He pulled open the oven door and wore mittens to take the hot food out. 

If he wasn't so upset the previous day, there would be no way he could have turned down the food that she had prepared. He hadn't even started eating and his mouth was already watering.

He opened one of the cabinets and served the food on his plate before putting it back into the oven so that Jen could also have it warm and took the plate to the dining table. 

He opened the fridge so that he could pour himself a gla.s.s of juice and saw the deserts that she had prepared the previous day. He really felt his heart shake when he saw them.

He realised how bad she had probably felt when she had acted senselessly in his office and she probably wanted to appease his anger a bit through the food she prepared.

Unfortunately, he had coldly turned down her invitation for dinner which looked like it had taken her hours to prepare.

He took out the juice and poured some into his gla.s.s before he sat down to each his very sumptuous breakfast. He took his time with his breakfast as he browsed his emails and a few minutes later he heard Jen lazily walk down the stairs.

She dragged her feet as she walked towards him and directly crawled into his lap and closed her eyes as if she was going back to sleep.

Lucas looked at her in amus.e.m.e.nt as he chewed his food before swallowing it. He pushed some stray strands of hair away from her slightly damp face that she has washed as she brushed her teeth when she got out of bed.

"Why don't you go back to bed?" Lucas asked his voice carrying a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt as he watched fall in and out of sleep on his lap. She was comfortable since she had gotten herself a boyfriend with such a wide chest.

"I'm sore, I don't want to move," Jen said and buried her face in his neck that smelled like his aftershave and got even more comfortable. 

"You shouldn't have left the room then," Lucas said as he took a sip of his juice.

"Then I wouldn't see you when you leave," Jen said in response. Lucas wondered when she had become such a sweet talker. He really didn't mind spoiling her when she acted like this.

He was in such a good mood that if Jen had asked him to give him one of his hotels he wouldn't have hesitated at all.

"You might as well have some breakfast," Lucas said and picked a fork full of food and brought it to her lips. Jen opened her mouth and accepted the food readily and chewed on it.

As she chewed, she realised something. She was behaving like an adult child! She was sitting on his lap and being spoon-fed like a child.

Her eyes snapped open and she sat up straight completely ignored her sore body almost falling off his lap in the process.

"You're treating me like a child right?" Jen said after swallowing her food which ruined her dramatic actions as she was furiously chewing her food as Lucas waited for her to speak. Lucas laughed and leaned over to peck her lips.

"I wouldn't do this to a child," Lucas said and handed her his gla.s.s of orange juice. She took a few sips and placed it back on the table.

"You'll have to ask David about what party it's going to be, and the theme so we can wear the appropriate colours," Jen said as she fixed Lucas' hair.

"Mmh, I'll ask him" Lucas and pecked her lips once more before she got up from his lap. He took his dishes to the kitchen and after being forced out by Jen who kept saying he'll get his clothes wet if he washed the dishes, he finally conceded.

Lucas picked up his things and his car keys and walked to the front door with Jen trailing closely behind him. He stopped right before the door and turned around to look at Jen who looked a bit tired.

"My goodbye kiss" Lucas said and used his index finger to point at his own lips. Jen smiled at his shamelessness but still stepped forward and wrapped her hands around his neck before pulling him towards her and giving the "obligatory" kiss.

"Don't forget to ask David what I told you to" Jen shouted after him as she peeked out the door.

"I won't" Lucas rea.s.sured.

"I'll call later to confirm okay?" Jen said. She was going to shop with Nancy later that day so she would have to know early on anyways.

She watched as Lucas turned back and smiled at her as he waved before going into the elevator. Jen smiled back and waved at him as well. He really made her feel like a kept wife sometimes.
