Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts

Chapter 190

Ashley couldn't help but chuckle. Looking at Izzy, she said, "You enjoy good gossip, don't you?”

"Women are just like that. Now spill it. What's going on between you two?"

"What's going on? Did he seem like he could make any progress with me the other night? Honestly, I haven't called him since that night. He hasn't contacted me either, I'm not sure what to make of this."

Izzy thought for a moment and then whispered, not wanting Phillip to overhear, "I think it's just a bit of a grey area, it'll pass.”

"You don't understand his personality. He seems gentle and easy-going, but he's actually very stubborn, he won't change his mind that easily. But I'm still young, I can wait for him, even if it takes a few years. By the time he's an old man, I'll still be young.” Ashley said confidently.

Izzy had to laugh at Ashley's attitude, thinking that members of the Meyer family were all a bit cocky, and Ashley was no exception. Then Izzy said,"You're right, it's not that hard.”

"I thought something happened between you two. Why did you suddenly come back?"

Ashley slapped the table, "I want him to miss me and make him anxious."

Hearing this, Izzy couldn't help but laugh. It seemed her concern was unnecessary, Ashley was more open-minded and full of ideas than anyone else.

Izzy had a mixed day. Each family member who got home saw her and paused, even the usually silent Trenton smiled at her, saying, "You look good."

Erica reached out and pinched her cheek.

Izzy could only sigh, "Mom." She was nearly thirty.

Erica couldn't help but laugh, "Ethan really does have some tricks up his sleeve."

When Ethan returned, he could clearly feel that his status at home had improved. If he had brought Izzy home after a month, he would've been scolded. But today, everyone looked at him kindly, and no one blamed him.

Only Izzy was treating him like he was invisible.

Just as he was puzzled, Ashley whispered in his ear. He finally understood and sat down next to Izzy. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Izzy ignored him as she ate her meal. He added food to her plate, but Izzy didn't even look at him and gave it all back, saying, "I can do it myself."

She thought back and realized that Ethan had always been adding food to her plate recently, saying that these foods were nutritious and good for her body. As it wasn't oily, she didn't think much about it and just ate it, but it led to this result.

Everyone laughed, and Phillip directly said to Ethan, "You've done it now. You've upset your wife. You deserve to suffer a bit."

Ashley said, "Bro, you better pull out all the stops, or you're sleeping on the couch tonight."

Izzy finished her meal and went for a walk with Erica before heading back to the bedroom. Ethan was on the bed reading some documents, and he smiled at her when he saw her. She wasn't in the mood to admire his good looks and thought, "Jerk."

"Izzy, come here." Ethan beckoned.

"Ethan, I'm telling you for the last time, don't talk to me tonight, I'm really mad." Izzy turned and went to the bathroom.

Ethan shook his head and smiled. He really made her mad this time; she's been angry for so long.

When Izzy came out of the bathroom, Ethan was looking at her.

"Izzy." Ethan called again.

Izzy ignored him and went straight to dry her hair, completely ignoring Ethan.

Ethan put down the documents, walked behind her, and hugged her waist, burying his chin in the crook of her neck. Izzy was uncomfortable and said, "Get up, or I'll burn your hair."

"Burn it, do whatever you want, as long as you're not mad." Ethan laughed quietly.

Izzy always had no resistance to his rogue behavior, she laughed and pushed him a bit, "Stop it, get up."

Ethan wouldn't let her go so easily, he took the hairdryer from Izzy's hand and dried her hair for her. When Izzy realized she had given in so easily, she was annoyed again.

Ethan pinched Izzy's face, "Don't be mad; I think you're even prettier now."

Izzy was unhappy and asked, "Wasn't I pretty before?"

Ethan said seriously with a smile, "Of course you were, but recently I've seen you transform from a beauty into a fairy."

Izzy couldn't help but laugh, she gave Ethan a push, "Where did you learn to talk like this? You've become so slick."

He really knew how to flatter people. She was not denying it and quite liked the compliment.

"I don't like lying. Everything I say is true."

Ethan cheered up Izzy's mood. Then he continued holding Izzy and said, "You're not short, 49kg is just right. Even if you gained a few more kilos, it wouldn't be a problem."

"Ethan, stop. Don't think like that anymore. I think I've reached my limit, I can't gain any more weight, or it will be a problem when I get pregnant."

Ethan nodded, "Okay, we'll eat normally from now on." Hearing Ethan say this, Izzy finally felt relieved. She looked up at Ethan, realizing that even though they had been eating the same food, he seemed to have no changes; his face was still as handsome as ever, and he had no extra fat on his body.
