First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 152

Chapter 152: Chapter 152: Caleb Lockwood Seems a Little Pitiful

Today Serena Jennings went home.

It’s not that she wasn’t willing to stay at the hospital, but she wanted to go home and personally cook dishes Lance Lockwood likes to eat and that would help with his recovery.

She visited the morning market and bought a lot of fresh ingredients.

Perhaps because Lance Lockwood’s surgery was very successful, and his mental state was also good; or perhaps because the divorce process with Caleb Lockwood had become clear, Serena was in a better mood than before.

She managed to put the finished dishes into the four-layer large-capacity thermal lunchbox before lunch and then went to the hospital.

When Serena walked into Lance Lockwood’s hospital room, besides the caregiver, Caleb Lockwood was also there.

Serena genuinely felt that Lance Lockwood’s care for Caleb wasn’t in vain.

She knew very well that Arthur Lockwood was busy with work, but Caleb wasn’t free either! 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

However, since Lance Lockwood has been out of danger, neither Arthur Lockwood nor Lilian Young have come to the hospital much.

Even though money was spent on tipping the doctors, nurses, and caregiver, outsiders ultimately are not as attentive as family.

On the contrary, Caleb, like Serena, has stayed in the hospital, and even when shooed away by Lance, he hasn’t left.

"Serena, haven’t I told you? Focus on your career, you don’t have to stay here to take care of me, I’m well-staffed here, so don’t worry!"

Lance said so but seeing Serena visiting him made his eyes nearly disappear from smiling.

"I’m not that busy..."

Serena said while she opened the thermal lunchbox.

The aroma of the dishes began to fill the room as Serena took out the steaming dishes, making everyone in the room drool.

Lance had just undergone surgery and needed to pay extra attention to his diet.

Following the principles of low salt, low fat, low sugar, and easy digestion, Serena meticulously prepared steamed bass, braised beef with carrots, tomato tofu soup, and yam millet porridge for Lance.

Lance couldn’t help but be filled with tears of gratitude.

If initially he valued Serena for her genuine efforts towards Caleb and her humble virtues,

now in Lance’s eyes, Serena is the perfect granddaughter-in-law, flawless.

Not only is she beautiful, kind, and filial, but she also cooks well and manages the household diligently.

After returning to work, she could set up her own studio, win major awards, be featured in magazines, and become known internationally.

Yet, the better Serena appears in Lance’s eyes, the more unwilling he is to let go, prompting him to want to scold Caleb for not cherishing and suffering from it.

"Sigh!"

Lance couldn’t help but sigh.

"Grandpa, what’s wrong? Are these dishes not to your taste?"

Serena was a bit worried.

She feared her culinary skills had declined.

Because Lance is a post-operative patient, she paid special attention to the salt and oil levels, hence the taste might be quite different from before.

"No, Serena’s cooking is still so good, I really like it, you’ve put a lot of care into it..."

As Lance spoke to Serena, he glanced at Caleb again and sighed.

Caleb understood why Lance was sighing.

"May I sit?"

Caleb’s sudden question puzzled Serena.

What right does she have to not allow Caleb to sit?

"Yes."

After Serena spoke, Caleb pulled up a chair next to the table and casually grabbed a pair of disposable chopsticks.

"May I eat?"

He asked Serena again.

This time, Serena did not immediately say "yes".

Indeed, she hadn’t prepared a portion for Caleb today.

Seeing Serena remain silent without nodding, Caleb lowered his eyelids and murmured softly:

"I won’t get to eat them in the future even if I want to..."

Serena looked at Caleb with surprise.
