I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 216

Kern got up early in the morning, the weather was nice today.

After taking a shower, Kern came out of the bathroom in his bathrobe, and when he was about to draw the curtains, there were two knocks on the door.

Kern put down his hand holding the curtain and walked to the door.

The lock clicked softly, and the door opened.

The two people inside and outside the door were stunned at the same time.

Kern was taken aback for a while, but in the next moment, a sly look flashed through his eyes.

"Mm-mmm?" His deep voice rolled out of his throat, which was indescribably sexy.

In addition, he had just finished taking a shower and his body was thinclad with a bathrobe, which made him look laid-back; however, he did look seductive like this.

Outside the door, the woman looked away and said, "This is the breakfast you ordered, everybody else is busy and Carol is still sleeping, so I…" So she came to bring him breakfast.

She said that everybody else was busy, in fact, there were only a few staff members in the entire guesthouse.

The guesthouse itself was not big and did not require much manpower.

The guesthouse had prepared a breakfast buffet, of course, it was not comparable to a five-star hotel. What they provided was just some simple breakfast. Usually the guests would go downstairs to have breakfast; however, if certain guests have special requirements for breakfast, they would take the guests' orders and deliver the food to their rooms.

Now Kern only saw that she was carrying a bamboo basket in her hand and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes… This was the first time in his life that he found a guesthouse using a bamboo basket for meal delivery.

But…it was not important.

He curved up his thin lips.

"Oh…" His extended "Oh" was accompanied by a trace of nasal tone. Then he gave a meaningful glance to the woman's face outside the door and said, "Take it in."

The woman outside the door paused, a little unhappy. "Mr. Lo, can't you take it in by yourself?"

Kern raised his eyebrows and said naturally, "Do you think I'm used to this kind of thing?"

This kind of thing?

Which kind of thing?

The woman rolled her eyes secretly… He was just another young master who was lazy and ignorant.

Standing at the doorway, Kern raised his eyebrow tail slightly and said, "Why are you staring blankly here? Can't you do such a simple thing?" After the words, he smacked his lips. "Well, you're the boss."

He was obviously satirizing her!

The woman gave him a glance, carried the bamboo basket, lifted her feet and walked into the room.

While his voice came from her back again. "Put it on the coffee table."

She had no choice but to keep going inside.

Then she put down the bamboo basket, said, "Mr. Lo, you eat first. Later when cleaning the room, someone will take it back."

With that, she turned around and walked to the door, ready to leave.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw Kern leaning against the unlatched door with his arms crossed over his chest steadily. His hair was still dripping with water and the hair on his forehead was slightly curly, making him look indescribably laid-back.

She could only lower her eyes to avoid looking at him.

At the door, Kern took great delight in watching her face which had been flushed slightly with embarrassment, while he totally did not care about his laid-back and seductive appearance.

"Boss, don't you have breakfast together?"

The woman reached out for the handle of the unlatched door, but Kern next to her quickly stretched out his slender muscular arm and pressed the door.

She raised her head, thinking that the smile of this inexplicable man made her feel quite unhappy.

Her forehead wrinkled slightly, "Since Mr. Lo has such a golden heart, why don't you treat the beggars on the street to a meal?"

"Alright." Kern chortled and withdrew his hand pressing on the door suddenly. "Boss, you said yesterday that you would give me a tea set you use to drink tea and a lounge chair like yours.
