“Okay, Miss Ross.
Don’t worry.
I will take care of it,” Jaliyah promised.
As the window wasn’t closed, Lucinda suddenly smelled burning.
The smell appeared to be emanating from downstairs.
Lucinda was horrified when she ended the call and immediately ran down the stairs.
The sight of the kitchen which was filled with thick smoke startled her.
As Nathaniel attempted to fan the smoke away with his hands, he got choked and coughed.
Lucinda was left stunned.
“I told you to cook, not to burn down the house.

She covered her mouth and nose, rushed into the kitchen, turned off the gas range, and switched on the range hood and exhaust fan.

Nathaniel didn’t respond.
He felt that she was just taunting him.
Lucinda had no words.
She sighed and asked, “Do you think that I should eat this for dinner?”
“I prepared another simple dish.
”
She raised an eyebrow.
“Where?”
Nathaniel then led her to the dining table.
The dish looked somewhat normal in color.
Lucinda sighed and decided to give it a try.
