Chapter 1746 I Might Be a Burden
Will propelled himself out of the room and glanced around the surroundings. "Have your friend left?" He
asked.
Rachel poked her head out of the kitchen and teased, "Mr. Darcey, are you hoping for me to leave?
Sorry to disappoint you. I'm gonna stay to help Elisa clean your room and might stay for a meal. Hope
you don't mind."
"Of course not." Will wore a gentle smile. His soothing and magnetic voice was pleasing to the ear.
Rachel beamed. "Glad to know."
Later, Rachel helped Elisa to clean the house inside out while Will didn't stay idle either—he
thoughtfully served the ladies drinks.

Rachel was pleased to see Will's behavior. She was worried that Will would behave like a spoiled, rich
man who was finicky and unhelpful. That would certainly make things difficult for Elisa.
The three of them grew closer through the cleaning activities. Will, especially, could sense that Rachel
had let her guard down and could get along with him.
Will understood why Rachel resisted him. They had never interacted before this, so she wouldn't detest
him for no reason.
Therefore, he proved his attitude so that Rachel wouldn't hold her prejudice against him.

None of them were in the mood to prepare dinner. Neither did they want to dine out, but they didn't
want to settle for something casual either. Finally, they decided that a steamboat was the best choice.

Rachel was excited to buy the ingredients as she enjoyed having steamboats with friends. However,
when she saw Will, she was reminded of something and suddenly became deflated. She sat down on
the couch and mumbled, "I forgot you shouldn't eat spicy food, given your current condition."
Will remained smiling and shook his head, signaling that he was fine. "I'm not too hungry. You two have
worked hard today, so please eat what you want. Besides, I think it's fine to have some spicy food
occasionally, right, Elisa?"
Will secretly winked at Elisa while asking for her opinion.
Elisa smiled. "Rachel's right. Spicy food is not good for your recovery."
Rachel became more dejected when she heard Elisa's reply. Will frowned, too, thinking about how to
persuade Elisa.
Elisa saw through their minds and chuckled. "But…" She deliberately prolonged her tone. "You can
rinse the food with water before eating to reduce the spiciness. Or, we can make two soups—a spicy

one and a non-spicy one. We just need to get another pot while buying ingredients later."
Immediately, Rachel's downcast look was replaced with a beam while Will wore a hearty smile too,
which was different from his usual, polite smile.
He was attracted to Elisa's subtle cheekiness and appropriate humor. At the same time, she was
shrewd and decisive when it came to important matters. How could he easily let go of someone as
excellent as Elisa?
Will sighed inwardly while being amused by Elisa's remark.
Elisa and Rachel planned to buy ingredients at a nearby market, while Will intended to stay back due to
his disability.
"Stay safe and come back soon. I shall not tag along since I won't be of any help and might even be a
burden."
