The next day, Amelia Johnson stepped out of the bathroom and quickly checked the scale. She’d lost four pounds!
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
Damien Taylor leaned closer, his smile spreading across his face. “See? I told you. So, does this mean…”
“No way! I’m still exhausted!” Amelia immediately wrapped her clothes tightly around her and made a quick escape, supporting herself against the wall as she went.
Damien frowned. “Take it slow!”
“Relax, I’m fine!” she called back. “I’m making breakfast for you, just wait!”
And so, pretty much every day, Amelia took over as the chef, while Damien helped out whenever he got off work early.
Their days felt like a married couple’s routine—always filled with laughter and warmth.
Tomorrow was the Top 10 qualifying round.
