Chapter 66 He Ignored Her Contribution
Mr. Bush was a little confused, but when he saw Charlotte’s expression that he had guessed that he had said something wrong, he quickly apologized and left.
Mr. Brown also looked a little embarra*sed.
Charlotte smiled and said, “David is right. People should cook to please themselves not to please others.”
Joe took a deep look at her.
Mr. Bush hurried back to the kitchen and asked his disciples, “What happened to our boss and his wife? Did they quarrel?”
As the most gossipy chef in CAL Restaurant, Alan looked at Mr. Bush in disbelief. “Boss divorced five years ago, and he is remarrying soon.”
Mr. Bush’s realised he had said something wrong. No wonder back there the atmosphere was so weird.
Before Mr. Bush could ask further questions, the director invited him to a private room.
Chapter 66 He Ignored Her Contribution.
2/4
In the private room sat Joe in a suit and he asked him, “Tell me about learning cooking. What did you mean?”
There was a flash of surprise in Mr. Bush’s eyes. “You don’t
know? Mrs. Smith, no, Miss White didn’t even know how to
hold the kitchen knife when she first came here! Later, she could easily make a table of exquisite dishes. Can’t you see such great progress?”
Thinking of how Charlotte had worked so hard to learn how to cook for him, Mr. Bush became a little angry as he spoke.
“I’m stubborn. I don’t like taking in disciples at will, and I don’t like to do those trivial things. So when Miss White proposed to learn cooking, I refused several times.”
“I don’t know how many times she came to me before I agreed.” Mr. Bush said in a deep voice, “It’s hard to learn how to cook. It took Miss White nearly a week to learn how to hold a kitchen knife, and her hands are full of scars.”
Mr. Bush’s words reminded Joe of the past.
Not long after they got married, Charlotte had a lot of wounds on her hand. When he heard the nanny ask her what was going on, she just smiled and did not answer.
At that time, Joe didn’t take Charlotte seriously at all and just
For a long time after that, Charlotte would stew a pot of soup for him every day, and then it would become a dish, dessert, and the types of dishes would never repeat.
Unfortunately, Joe hadn’t had a single bite.
He had never thought that Charlotte would learn these things for him. His disgust and prejudice against her made him refuse all her efforts and hospitality.
Seeing that he was lost in thought, Mr. Bush also felt relieved and quickly said goodbye to leave.
Back in the private room, Joe said to Charlotte in a low voice, “I have a few questions to discuss with you. Please come over.”
She really wanted to refuse, but when she saw that Mr. Brown was still here, she couldn’t refuse him face to face, lest Mr. Brown suspected that the two partners were not on good terms. So she had to agree.
Joe took Charlotte to the private room next door. With a heavy gaze, he asked, “Why didn’t you tell me you learned how to cook for me?”
Before coming here, she had already guessed his
purpose.
And when he finally asked her, she couldn’t help but respond with a touch of sarcasm. “What does it matter if I tell you or not? Back then, you only had someone else in your heart and despised me. Whether I told you or not wouldn’t have made a difference.”
