The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 965

Freshly showered and wearing a silk robe, Bianca stomps out of her bedroom, only to freeze when she reaches the open kitchen. Coen is standing right there at the stove.

"Wait, you're still here?" she blurts out, genuinely stunned.

"Why? Are you unhappy that I'm here?" Coen raises an eyebrow, a faint smirk playing on his lips. He plates the breakfast he just cooked—steaming noodles, perfectly fried eggs, and a fresh fruit salad—and carries the tray to the dining table.

Clearly, he isn't a jerk who bolted after a one-night stand. He's actually a hopelessly romantic sweetheart who stayed to cook her breakfast.

Suddenly, a wave of guilt washes over Bianca. She was just calling him a player in her head, plotting her revenge as a heartbreaker, only to realize she was projecting her own insecurities onto a genuinely good guy.

"Hehe, of course I'm not unhappy. I just thought you slipped out while I was asleep," she admits, pulling out a chair. "You stayed and made me this amazing breakfast. Obviously, I'm thrilled."

Bianca has always been straightforward. She never hides her feelings or plays coy when she is genuinely happy. Her eyes immediately lock onto the bowl of noodles. The broth is rich, topped with a golden fried egg, crisp greens, and bright red tomatoes—it looks and smells phenomenal. Beside it is a glass of warm milk and a bowl of fresh strawberries, blueberries, and bananas tossed in yogurt.

She takes a quick bite, and her large, expressive eyes light up. "This is incredible! You have to make this for me again," she demands playfully, leaning forward with a sweet, effortless charm.

Her bright, unfiltered joy captivates Coen. He sits across from her, watching her eat with genuine appetite, a stark contrast to the socialites who pick at their food like birds. This is exactly what he has always loved about her—her complete lack of pretension and her fierce courage to chase exactly what she wants. He loved her for it then, and he loves her for it now.
