The driver took Caleb and me back to my villa.
Getting out, the driver opened the door for me.
Caleb stared, deep in thought.
I walked ahead, ignoring him completely.
Because I was hungry.
I sat at the dining table, Caleb standing silently aside.
"This doesn't taste good, you eat it."
I took one bite and put down the cutlery. Caleb didn't hesitate, devouring everything like a wolf.
His face looked less pale.
I directed the butler in formal attire.
Told him to teach Caleb how to be a servant and treat his wounds while he was at it.
After giving instructions, I went for my beauty sleep.
Caleb stared at my retreating back.
It was a long time before he looked away.
The next day, when I saw Caleb, he was wearing a suit.
He looked much better than yesterday.
He pulled out the chair for me.
"Miss, breakfast is ready."
The food today was much better than yesterday's.
I ate a few more bites and saw Caleb's brow relax.
So Caleb made this meal.
He had worked in a restaurant before.
"You're somewhat useful."
Caleb pursed his lips.
"I'm glad Miss likes it."
After eating, I took Caleb to afternoon tea.
