Chapter 23
After finishing shopping at the supermarket, Alyssa and Theodora returned home with their hands full of loot.
That big bag of food was eventually carried back by Theodora. All in all, she spent quite a bit on this trip, but it was the most relaxing one.
The timing of arriving home was just right. Alyssa had just put the groceries she bought into the refrigerator when the doorbell rang. Just as she was about to turn around to open the door, Theodora, with her long legs, took a step ahead and reached the door first.
Opening the door, it was exactly the delivery that had just been arranged.
After everything was brought in, Alyssa looked at the full living room and couldn’t help but exclaim, “The gains from this trip are really substantial.”
She used to rarely spend so much, but it must be said, the spoils of this living room look very satisfying.

He was dizzy from that one look, but still remembered to ask Alyssa if she needed help. And after what had just happened at the supermarket, she also gradually began to accept a closer interaction with him.
“Theodora, can I ask you for a favor?” She cautiously asked, and he immediately agreed without asking what it was. She didn’t know if she felt sweet or guilty, or maybe she was afraid he would regret it. She quickly pointed to a stack of boxes behind her and chuckled, “Help me unpack these boxes, please!” Theodora gladly agreed, dragged a small chair over and sat down to start unpacking directly. At first, he didn’t pay much attention to it, but he helped while watching Alyssa busy around, and then skillfully placed each piece of furniture in its most suitable place.

“No, I can do it alone. Alyssa is very talented in arranging furniture, she’s great. Alyssa just needs to focus on placing them in the right places.” He said, patting his chest to prove that he could do it, and then pointed confidently, taking on another task for himself, “You can leave these things to me later!”
