Chapter 349 No Trace of Injury on the Face
He lowered his gaze to the noodles in front of him, his long eyelashes trembling, obscuring his
expression. He picked up his chopsticks and began to eat elegantly, bite by bite.
Curiosity got the better of me and I couldn’t help but ask, “How does it taste?”
His voice was a bit hoarse, he only uttered two words, “Delicious.”
Although I knew my skills were definitely not as good as my mother’s, I still felt pretty good when I
heard him say that. I replied, “Of course, after all, I’ve been eating it for over twenty years. Even though
I’ve never actually made it, I’ve watched enough to be quite familiar with it.”
He was eating quietly with his head down. The man was handsome, pleasing to the eye from any
angle. Remembering what Sebastian had said about him having a car accident and injuring his face, I
couldn’t help but move a bit closer to him, carefully observing Daniel’s flawless face.
Curious in my heart, having been hurt, how come there was no trace at all?
“I…” He suddenly looked up, and I was staring at him motionlessly, unable to react in time. Because we
were too close, unexpectedly, we bumped into each other.
Their eyes met, but he didn’t say the words that were on the tip of his tongue. His thin lips moved
slightly, his expression obscure.
I was also startled, somewhat embarrassed as I returned to my original

seat. Looking at him, I asked, “What’s wrong?”
He shook his head, his expression somewhat panicked as he lowered his head again.
The atmosphere was indeed a bit awkward just now. I cleared my throat, feeling as if I had
overstepped, but I couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Monroe, you’ve been injured on your face before, where
was it? How come there are no visible scars?” Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Such advanced medical technology made me really want to consult his doctor, to see if there was any
way to remove the scar on my stomach.
He paused slightly, casually saying, “The injury wasn’t severe, it has already healed.”
How was it possible to use screen masks before?
Sensing that he didn’t want to talk, I didn’t press further. After all, it was his birthday, and I couldn’t say
anything to dampen his spirits. So I said, “After you finish eating, let’s blow out the candles and eat
cake together. By the way, where’s Sebastian?”
I looked around, but didn’t see Sebastian anywhere.
Daniel said casually, “He’s busy with something, he left.”
I furrowed my brows, but then remembered that Sebastian’s mother was not in good health, so I didn’t
ask any further. Catching sight of the empty bowl in front of Daniel, I couldn’t help but exclaim, “Was
the pasta that good? You’ve finished it all?”
He nodded, his dark eyes sparkling, still those two words, “Delicious.”
I pursed my lips to suppress a laugh, feeling happy inside. It was my first time cooking noodles and he
had given such high praise. Of course, I was delighted.

I stood up and pushed him over to the cake, where candles and paper plates had already been
prepared. Turning to Daniel, I asked, “How old are you turning today?”
He paused for a moment, pursed his lips and said, “Put in five candles.”
I was puzzled, “Five?”
He nodded, his thin lips slightly lifted as he said, “This birthday gift is for my five-year-old self.”
I felt a bit heartbroken, didn’t ask any more questions, nodded, and inserted five candles.
Lighting the candle, I looked at Daniel and said, “Make a wish.”
He shook his head slightly, blew out the candle in one breath, and looked at me, saying, “Didn’t you
want to eat cake? Try it and see if it’s what you like.”
I hummed in agreement, I had already smelled the rich aroma of this cake just now, I thought this cake
must be delicious.
When Sebastian came in, Daniel had just cut the first piece of cake. Seeing him, I said, “Where have
you been? The candles have been blown out.”
He chuckled, saying, “There’s something outside that I need to handle.”
Hearing this, I nodded. Seeing Daniel hand me the first piece of cake, I shook my head and said,
“You’re the birthday boy, you should have the first piece. I’ll help myself.”
In this matter, I never would have wronged myself, especially when facing delicious food.

This cake, indeed, was as rich as its aroma, sweet and fragrant in every bite. I couldn’t help but eat a
few more bites.
Daniel wasn’t sure if he was full, watching me cat happily, he asked, “Do you like cake?”
I nodded, saying, “Hmm.”
He nodded slightly, smiling faintly, “I thought you would find this too sweet, and not like it.”
“It’s indeed sweet, but also fragrant.” I took a bite and said, “Moreover, this cake obviously wasn’t
cheap. The ingredients and craftsmanship must have been from a top-notch chef. With such a good
thing, where is the reason not to like it?”
Daniel gave a faint smile.
Seeing that his mood was hot as bad as when I first arrived, and the clock on the wall had passed
midnight, I said goodbye to Daniel.
After a moment of surprise, Daniel nodded and said, “Let Sebastian take you home.”
