Chapter 70

"Good morning," Adrienne greeted as she found Ryan in his kitchen.

"Hey," Ryan smiled, his eyes lighting up as he caught sight of her. "Someone's looking extra beautiful this morning."

Adrienne blushed at the compliment.

"Thanks. I could say the same about you. You look great in that apron."

"Thank you," Ryan said, a hint of pride in his voice. "Nice summer dress you have there," he added.

Grinning, Adrienne twirled around happily.

"Of course it's nice. How did you even know my size?"

Ryan chuckled, opening his arms up for a hug and Adrienne approached him for the embrace.

"Hmm. Feels good," Ryan said as he inhaled her scent.

"As for your size, I just guessed it. Honestly," Ryan confessed, still holding her tightly.

Breaking away from the hug, Adrienne looked into his eyes.

"Did you sleep well?" He asked her.

"Of course. How about you? How's your body now? Has the pain reduced? And what are you making?" She asked him and Ryan nodded, a look of relief crossing his face.
