WantNovelChapter 663
"I'll see what food we have in the kitchen. You stay here and don't move around," Zachary said gently. He raised
his hand to ruffle Sarah's hair, but she ducked away. He left with a disappointed look.
Sarah watched his retreating figure and muttered under her breath, "Is he treatinglike a child?"
The countryside rooms had poor sound insulation, and soon she heard clattering noises from the kitchen.
Curious about what Zachary was doing, Sarah pressed her lips together and carefully eased herself off the bed,
supporting herself against the wall.
Just as she was about to hop a few steps, she lost her balance on one foot. Sarah let out a sharp cry as she
tumbled to the floor.
The pain from her ankle made her face turn pale, and her slender body curled up into a small ball.
Hearing the commotion, Zachary rushed over. Seeing the scene before him, his pupils contracted in alarm. He
hurried to her side and carefully lifted her back onto the bed.
The doctors in West Ridge didn't make house calls, and Zachary didn't dare move Sarah when she was in such
discomfort.
After a long while, Sarah's furrowed brow finally relaxed, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Zachary sighed in relief, but his expression quickly darkened. "Didn't | tell you not to move around? Why are you
so stubborn?"

Sarah opened her mouth and managed to say one word in a slightly hoarse voice, "Water."
Her throat was painfully dry, making it difficult to speak.
Zachary set aside his scolding and rushed to get her a cup of water. He returned, supporting her back with one
hand while holding the cup with the other, gently helping her drink.
After finishing the water, Sarah took a moment to recover. Aware that she was in the wrong, she lowered her
head and said quietly, "I just wanted to see if | could help with anything."
Hearing this, Zachary tapped her forehead with resigned affection before leaving the room again.
When he returned, he was carrying a steaming bowl of boiled noodles.
Noticing Sarah's questioning look, Zachary sat on the edge of the bed, blew on the noodles, and explained
without looking up, "Your foot is still injured, so you shouldn't eat anything spicy. | made snoodles-it's
simple, but it'll fill your stomach."
With that, he picked up snoodles and held them to Sarah's lips.
Sarah cautiously opened her mouth and swallowed, tasting the flavor.
As she chewed, she secretly wondered when Zachary, a wealthy young master,
had learned to cook, or rather, for whom he had learned.
The thought that there might be someone else made Sarah's heart clench painfully, bringing her close to tears.
She couldn't show it openly-at the very least, she couldn't reveal her vulnerable side in front of him.
Sarah ate the noodles in silence, and Zachary didn't try to make conversation either.
After she finished, Zachary helped Sarah lie down. "Get ssleep now."
Seeing Sarah close her eyes, Zachary tucked the blanket around her before taking the dishes away.

When Zachary returned after a quick shower, Sarah was still staring at the ceiling with wide-open eyes.
He spoke with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Thinking she was worried he might crawl into bed with her during the night, Zachary pointed to the sofa outside
