Ste Grace was still reading a book. After an hour, she felt a little tired. She came out of the basement and did a stretch. She saw Elvis Zachary in the kitchen, “Why are you here? Where is Auntie Wood?”
“Auntie Wood was fired by the Chief. He asked me to take over the meal preparation for the time being. He should be able to get someone whom he could trust toe over tomorrow,” Elvis said respectfully.
“Fired?” Ste nodded. She roughly knew the reason, “Let me do it. I know what Jasper likes to eat.”
“No, you are pregnant now. You have to rest more,” Elvis did not dare to let Ste do it.
Ste picked up the vegetables and began to wash them, “A pregnant woman also needs to exercise to ensure a smooth deliveryter. I used to be a gynecologist, so I know what I should do. Don’t worry, your chief won’t me you.”
“I’ll help you then. Call me if you need help,” Elvis did not dare to leave.
Ste cooked skillfully. She made a bowl of sd andadded some nuts for extra nutrition. It added a crunchier texture to the sd.Then, she made some mashed potatoes and grilled a few pieces of the pork chop. There were protein, fiber, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. It was awell-bnced meal.
“It looks delicious,” Elvis looked at the meal on the table.
Ste smiled and said, “Stay for dinner. You don’t have a girlfriend, do you?”
Elvis blushed and scratched his head, “Nobody likes me.”
“Next time, I’ll ask Jasper to introduce you to someone. You should get married and have a baby,” Ste said with a smile.
Suzi Shine was back.
She looked around, “Hasn’t Jaspere back yet?”
“I’ll call him,” Ste took out her mobile phone and called him. After three seconds, Jasper Milton answered, “I’ll be there in five minutes.”
“Okay,” After hanging up the phone, Ste said to Suzi, “He will be here in five minutes.”
“Natalie,” Suzi called Ste, looking a little displeased, “I heard that Jasper fired Auntie Wood. She has been with me for more than 20 years.”
“I was reading in the basement when Jasper fired her. I didn’t know about it until Elvis told me,” Ste exined.
“Auntie Wood said that Jasper fired her because she told him that you wanted to kick Ralph out, ” Suzi frowned and said.
Ste’s lips twitched, “If Auntie Wood really did say that, I would have fired her even if Jasper didn’t. However, I also understand your thoughts. After all, she has taken care of you for such a long time. People have emotions.You must be very close to her, especially since she had been by your side for more than 20 years. If you wish for her toe back, I will talk to Jasper about it.”This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
“Auntie Wood feels wronged,” Suzi was in dilemma.
“Ralph was wearing very thin clothes when he came here. I asked Auntie Wood to get him a coat. She doesn’t know what happened between us.
She came in and saw Ralph throwing the clothes that she had put over him angrily and running out. She didn’t know what had happened. At that time, she told me that he was just a child. I think Auntie Wood must have misunderstood me.
I understand why she could have misunderstood since she didn’t see what happened while she was gone. However, if she told Jasper directly that I drove Ralph away, then that is a tant provocation. I can’t tolerate such behavior. But since she’s here to take care of you,you should make the final decision then,” Ste said reasonably.
“For me, she is more like my family. I will talk to her and exin that she has misunderstood you,” Suzi said softly.
“I understand,” Ste smiled slightly.
Even if she were to say more, Suzi had already made up her mind. Ste knew that she couldn’t change it. Thus, she didn’t want to waste her breath arguing. She walked to the door as Jasper’s car pulled up. She smiled.
Jasper got out of the car and put his arm around her shoulder, “Why are you standing at the door? Are you cold? Just wait inside the house.”
“Haha, it’s not cold. I feel warm when I see you. By the way, I made some delicious food. Don’t me Elvis,I was the one who requested to cook for you,” Ste said with a smile. She then took Jasper’s hand and entered the house with him.
“Well, I have already talked with Natalie to let Auntie Woode back. I will check in with Auntie Wood in the future, to make sure she doesn’t repeat the same mistake. Is that okay?” Suzi said.
Jasper looked at Ste.
Ste nodded.
Jasper frowned and said, “Okay. You should decide on this matter.”
“Okay, then I’ll call her, lest shey awake all night,” Suzi called Auntie Wood.
“I’ll find someone to take care of you tomorrow,” Jasper said.
Ste nodded, “Well, the purpose of us staying here is to apany your mother. She needs someone to apany her. Auntie Wood has been with her for more than 20 years. Everyone will make mistakes, the same goes for us, but…”
Ste paused for a moment.
“But what?” Jasper asked.
“Two dayster, I’ll head over to the military base to stay for a while. I want to visit that old ce again,” Ste said with a smile, looking at Jasper’s face.
“Okay,” Jasper consented.
She pursed her lips and smiled.
He held her hand and kissed her face.
Ste blushed slightly and said, “Let’s eat first. The dishes are getting cold.”
“Alright.”
Elvis served the meal for the four of them solicitously.
Suzi was in a good mood when she returned. She said to Ste, “Thank you.”
“Wee. We were the ones who disrupted the peace here, so it’s only right if we do this,” Ste said.
“Wow, the pork chop is so tasty. It’s the most delicious pork chop I’ve ever eaten,” Elvis praised.
Ste smiled and said, “I remember you said the same thingst time.”
“It was fish thest time. This time, they are pork chops. It’s different,” Elvis said with a chuckle.
“I remember that the surface of theke seems to be frozen. I’ll go fishing there tomorrow. The fish in theke will be more delicious in winter. Come over to have some fish soup tomorrow,” Ste invited him.
“That sounds good. This sd is yummy too. By the way, Chief, I don’t have any tasks tomorrow, right? I want to go fishing with the Madam,” Elvis scratched his head.
“I’m not going to the military base tomorrow morning. I’ll head over to a meetingdirectly in the afternoon. You coulde here at 1 p. m. tomorrow,” Jasper ordered.
“Great, Madam, let’spete. Let’s see who could catch more fish!” Elvis was happy.
Suzi also smiled, “I will get off work early tomorrow ande back to have some fish soup too.”
“Old Madam, you might not be aware of this, but theMadam has made a fish feast before and it was very scrumptious. I will remember it for the rest of my life,” Elvis licked his lips and reminisced.
“Oh, by the way, Ralph is here today. How is he?” Suzi asked.
“I’ve settled him down,” Jasper said in a low voice.
“It’s the weekend tomorrow. Ask him toe over tomorrow, I miss him,” Suzi said to Jasper.
Jasper looked at Ste.
Ste nodded.
Jasper tightened his grip on her hand…
