Chapter 235 A Natto Feast

The chef brought her to the kitchen, and she looked at the ingredients.

"All of these are ingredients that we normally use in the cafeteria, and they're all freshly sent to us every morning. There are also some fish, prawns, and some other kinds of seafood. But if Mr. Graham wishes to eat anything that we don't have here, we can get someone to send them over as well," the chef explained.

Her eyes lit up when she heard what the chef said.

"Do you have natto?"

The chef was dumbfounded. He looked at her and asked to confirm, "Mr. Graham wants to eat that?"

"Yeah. Do you have them?"

"Well, we don't, but we can ask someone to send some over."

The chef was perplexed because as far as he knew, Benjamin never like food like that.

"Then, please prepare some and bring it up for me," she said with a smile. Done. I'm going to make Japanese food for Benjamin!

"Okay. I'll ask someone to send some over," he said and called the supplier. "It'll reach in about ten minutes," he continued.

"Thank you!" she said to the chef and took some vegetables and a few more ingredients upstairs.

When she finished washing the vegetables and making some rice, the staff sent natto over.

She stayed in the small kitchen all by herself to prepare Benjamin's lunch.

After half an hour, the whole floor was full of the delicious smell of food.

Ethen couldn't help but take a few deep breaths and was curious to see what Arissa was cooking.

He sneakily walked closer to the stove area to look at what she was cooking, and he saw that she was stir-frying some rice and... What the hell is that? "W-What's this?" he asked while shivering at the sight of the sticky texture of natto.

"It's natto," she replied with a laugh and ate some.

"Mmm! Delicious!"

Ethen quickly ran away.

Arissa was speechless and chuckled.

He doesn't know what he's missing. These are out of the world, you know?

She didn't care where the natto came from, what mattered was that she got what she needed to make the dish.

Ethen was sickened at the sight of the dish and felt sorry for Benjamin.

When it was twelve-thirty, Arissa was almost ready and went to get Benjamin.

"Mr. Graham, your lunch's ready. Would you like to eat it in your office or outside?" she asked.

Benjamin's eyes lit up when he lifted his head to see that she had tied her hair up and had an apron on.

"Bring it here," he said.

"Okay," she replied and went to the kitchen to bring all the dishes and place them on a dining table nearby.

Benjamin was curious to see what she made, so he followed her.

There was a bowl of something that looked like miso soup, a plate of fried rice with beans, a plate of vegetables and something fried.

Arissa was smart enough to stir-fry the natto so that Benjamin wouldn't be able to see what it was. Even the natto that Ethen saw earlier wasn't the finished product. That was why he could still see what it looked like.

"What are these?" Benjamin asked and took his seat.

Mm. These smell and look pretty good too.

She took some rice out and placed it in front of him along with the utensils. "Try this," she said with a smile.

Benjamin, you're up for a natto feast today.

Benjamin looked at her and had a hunch that she might be up to something. However, he didn't say anything and took a bite of something from the bowl that looked like miso soup.

His eyes flickered as soon as he tasted it. It was delicious and had a strong taste of beans in it.

"How is it?" she asked with a smile.

He looked at her. Was I overthinking things? Maybe she didn't do anything to the dish after all.

"Not bad!" he replied.

"Right? It's my best dish!" she laughed.

"What is this?" he asked as he took another bite of the natto.

This is pretty good.

"What do you think?" she sat down and looked at him with a smile.

He still couldn't identify it. "Well, it tastes like beans."

She giggled. "Try the others and see if they're good."

He still didn't know what she was up to even when after peering at her.
