"Eat and then go to bed early. I have to go home after eating." Jasper lowered his head and ate very elegantly.
Lyric nodded with a smile. He made salad, fried steak, grilled salmon and mushroom soup. Every dish looked very delicious.
She tasted the soup. It was really yummy.
She looked at Jasper with a smile, "Mr. Joye, I didn't expect that you would know how to cook."
Jasper raised his head and glanced at her. Then he put a piece of grilled salmon in her bowl, "Do you think I'm a man who never cooks or does housework?"
Lyric did not expect him to describe himself like that.
But she nodded honestly.
Jasper said, "You know what? Victor, Lucian and Anson couldn't even tell the difference between cods and wheat before they get married. After getting married, they learned to cook for their wives and did it very seriously. Hence, I leaned to cook for my future happiness."
In fact, that was only one of the reasons. Back then, Maureen was pregnant, and he wanted to be a good husband and a good father.
Later, he found that cooking was not so difficult. As long as he was serious, there was nothing he couldn't do.
Moreover, he had even learned how to make dumplings from Eden.
"Wow! I'm really surprised. You're an arrogant and proud president, but you'll dote on your future wife so much. That's right. Spoiling a woman is not just to buy her famous bags or expensive jewelry, but to take care of her in life. She'll be touched even if you just cook for her."
Lyric looked at the dishes on the table and smiled, "Mr. Joye, you are the second one who cooks for me. The first one is my mother. Thank you. I am very happy!"
She pursed her lips, and her eyes blurred with tears in an instant.
There was nothing to be embarrassed about. This was her true feeling in her heart.
Looking at the tears in her eyes, Jasper felt so sorry for her. A child who lived without parents was really lonely.
At least, he had Abigail by his side, but Lyric was alone. She must be sadder.
"Eat it. I'll come here and make breakfast for you tomorrow morning." Jasper couldn't help but say.
After he said this, he was startled.
But he couldn't go back on his word since he had said so.
"Great!" Lyric held her chopsticks tightly with excitement.
Since Jasper would cook for her, how could she want to eat takeout?
"But, Mr. Joye, will this delay your work?" Although the company functioned well, she was worried that she would affect his work.
She was his assistant. If he didn't go to the company for a few days, he would have a lot of work to deal with.
"No." After Jasper finished speaking, he lowered his head to eat. It seemed that he was trying to hide something.
Lyric was careless, and she did not find anything wrong with Jasper, "By the way, Mr. Joye, where did you get these food ingredients?"
"Of course I went out to buy it. Do you think they fell from the sky?" Jasper looked at her with amusement. She was really muddled, and he really doubted if she could take good care of herself.
Lyric blushed and smiled awkwardly, putting the fried steak in Jasper's bowl.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Joye. Eat more. Thank you very much. I'll see what I need and then order it online. The goods can be delivered before ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
"There's no need. There is a supermarket outside the neighbourhood. I bought a lot of food. It will be enough for you to eat for a period of time."
"Oh!" Lyric smiled gratefully again. She stared at Jasper and could not take her eyes off him. Why did she feel that he was particularly handsome that night?
Jasper noticed her eyes and looked at her, "Why are you looking at me? Eat your food."
"Because tonight you're more attractive than ever." Lyric was in a daze, so she couldn't help but say honestly.
After that, she blushed.
"Devin and I have to go out and deal with something. Go to bed early tonight."
Dahlia said with disappointment, "Alas! I am here to accompany you on purpose, but you're going out."
Barrett kissed her cheek, "Tonight, I have to meet a very important client. I'll rely on him to turn the table."
Barrett got up and left with Devin.
Watching them leave, Dahlia pouted her red lips slightly.
Who were they going to meet?
The Woods family did not cooperate with Barrett. Was it the Parma family?
However, the Parma family didn't take any action recently.
Feeling somewhat confused, Dahlia stood up and left the yard soon.
She had been observing Devin who was a very ambitious man.
She could make use of Devin.
She smiled and clicked Devin's phone number. Perhaps she could carry out her plan successfully by cooperating with him.
She didn't want to be with an old man like Barrett all the time.
She should have a better life, and she couldn't waste her time like this.
Dahlia was still worried after she got on the car, so she called someone and ask him to keep an eye on Leilani.
After arranging everything, she drove back to the villa.
