97

The head chef said awkwardly. "Mr. Hackett, why don't we make two simple dishes? It won't be able to learn

afraid you complicated dishes in such a short time."

Hackett, however, glared at the chef. "Are you going to let my woman eat vegetable salad? Do you think she's a rabbit?"

The head chef was speechless. He complained in his heart, "It's already good enough that you can make salad well..."

It took Valeria nearly 40 minutes to drive to the manor. It was already dark. She had to finish eating quickly and go home to keep her baby company later.

Although she felt at ease with Ella taking care of her baby, she still had to do her duty as a parent.

As soon as Valeria got out of the car, the b

butler came to greet her

"Ms. Sharp, you're finally here. Mr. Hackett asked me to bring you to the dining room to wait for him."

"Waiting for him? What's he working on?"

The butler answered truthfully. "Knowing that you were coming over for dinner, Mr. Hackett is learning to cook in the kitchen. Please wait in the dining room for a while. It will be done soon. "Now? Learning to cook?"

Valeria was

stunned. She was only saying it casually. She did not expect Hackett to cook for real After all, he was still a patient now. How could he cook?

She was brought into the dining room by the butler. There were already three dishes on the dining table. It was obvious that they had been completed with the help of the head chef. They looked good and smelled good. She didn't know how they rasted The butler said. "Mr. Hackett still has one more dish. Wait a moment. If you're hungry, you can eat first."

"I'd better wait for him." How

w could she have the check to eat first?

After more than ten minutes, she heard low footsteps. She looked up and saw Hackett's tall figure.

The man wore a black shirt and beige pants tonight, looking noble and elegant. He didn't look like he had just walked out of the kitchen. Instead, he looked like he had come back from a runway show

The maid behind him placed the last dish on the dining table and silently left the dining room with the butler, leaving them alone.

Hackett pulled out a chair and sat beside her. "Eat. You haven't had dinner yet, right?"

The man got his cutlery, picked up a dish, and took a bite. The corners of his mouth curled up in satisfaction. This dish was not bad

"I didn't expect you to be able to cook... Valeria was indeed kind of surprised that a pampered young man like Hackett could also learn to cook.

"I made more dishes that day than I did today. Too bad you didn't get to eat it."

On his birthday, he got busy all day to celebrate his birthday with Valeria. However, things did not go as he wished.

Although he had only made four dishes today, it was not bad to be able to eat with Valeria.

Chapter 97

Valeria picked up a piere of fish with her fork and took a bite. How should she describe it? It was unexpected. 9.67%D

This dish had the taste of a chef. The chef had probably been giving instructions, but there was still too much salt....

However, for a beginner like Hackett, this was already very good

"How is it?" There was a hint of anticipation in Hackett's dark eyes. He was looking forward to Valeria's evaluation of his cooking.

Valeria nodded. "Not bad. It's quite yummy, and I'm hungry now

She tried the other dishes, but it still felt like there was too much salt. Did this man prefer salty food? Couldn't he taste the saltiness? Why did he put so much salt? "Then eat more."

Hackett had already eaten. He just used this excuse to see her. He was engrossed in watching Valeria eat.

In the past, he had never realized that this woman was quite delicate when she ate. She chewed carefully and swallowed slowly. No matter how hungry she was, she still maintained that elegance.

When he first married Valeria, he always felt that such a girl from the slums would not have manners. He thought now that she had lived in such an environment since she was young, she might even smack her lips when eating. Therefore, Hackett rarely ate with Valeria before, nor did he notice how Valeria looked when she ate.

Because it was too salty, Valeria ate lots of bread.

"I'm full. I'm going home. Rest early

Valeria raised her wrist and looked at the time. It was time to go back. Otherwise, that kid would call and urge her.

sa restaurant? You want to leave

However, Hackett's expression was cold as he looked up at her. "Do you think this is a immediately after eating?"

"So what do you want to do? It's late. It's inconvenient to drive in the dark. Besides, the weather hasn't been too good these days. It could rain at any moment."

"Watch a movie with me. I'll get the driver to send you later."

The man got up, grabbed her wrist, and headed out of the restaurant.

Valeria struggled to pull her hand back. "No, I still have something on. Let's take a rain check. I don't have time now,"

"What do you need to do? Dating other men?" Hackett gritted his teeth in anger when he thought that Valeria might go to accompany Keith.

"I... I need to work overtime. I'm busy with work." Valeria glanced at her phone from time to time-She was afraid that the kid would suddenly call.

"If you have work to do, go to the law office. Who allowed you to bring your work home? Is this how Keith Cooper acted as a leader?"

Hackett's tone was filled with mockery and disdain.

Seeing that she could not refuse, Valeria could only compromise Then I'll call the nanny at home, okay? Tell her not to enter my study room casually." "Sure," Hackett agreed readily.

Chapter 97

Valeria picked up her phone and walked to the side to call Ella.

Hackett was a little displeased. "Are you going behind my back while you call the nanny? Is your nanny a man?"

"Can you give me some privacy? Didn't you agree to give me freedom? Didn't we agree that you would change your bad

was still so domineering semper? What did you change?" She couldn't take it anymore. This

Hackett didn't know what to say.

He had nothing to say and could only remain silent..

Valeria walked to the side and waited for a long time before Ella finally picked up the call.

She peeked at the man behind her in case he suddenly leaned in and overhear.

"Ella, is the baby asleep? Coax him to sleep first. I might come back later. You don't have to wait for me.

After quickly giving her instructions, she hung up the phone, looking as nervous as a thief.

"Alright, hurry up and watch your movie. I'll go home after watching it. Valeria's tone was super perfunctory. She probably would not be able to enjoy the movie for a second.

Hackett did not like her perfunctory attitude. He said, "If you want to watch a movie with me, you must watch it seriously. Don't try to brush me off. I'm going to test how you felt about the movie later."

What?

Did she have to say how she felt about the movie? Why did it feel like an elementary school teacher assigning homework?" "Hackett! Don't go too far. I seem to remember you trying to chase after me, not me chasing after you, right?" "So what?"

Hackett asked back in a self-righteous manner as if he did not feel he was at fault. This kind of arrogance was inmate.
