Chapter 250 Cooking from Scratch
She then changed her perspective on the issue. Jonathan’s parents are also a couple, and they are not at odds,
Angela rolled her eyes silently. Yes, they are a couple, but they are more like allies, she thought.
Although she thought Jonathan was quite nice, matters of the heart must be mutual. She was deeply in love with Christopher in her past life, but what was the outcome?
Angela thought momentarily and asked, “Um, the lack of love can also be the love of your brothers, friends, or relatives, Isn’t that very intense as well? Does it have to be between a man and a woman
Daniel smiled with a hint of ambiguity. “Well, you see, we have loved him a lot over the years. But he is still the same. Besides, guys are nonchalant. How can they be as attentive as you women?” Daniel continued, So, he may lack the love between a man and a woman. Angie, whether Jon can recover depends on you now.”
A hint of pleading on his face, “Now, only you can help him.”
Angela did not hesitate at all and nodded. “Of course. You can rest assured. I will take care of Jonathan’s matters. It’s just that…”
How can I make up for this lack of love? In theory, Jonathan lacks his parents‘ love. I had never experienced this love, so how could I make others feel it if I had not? she thought.
Daniel looked at Angel with a hint of hesitation and said, “Don’t worry. I believe you can do it. And I can see that Jon is different from you. J–Just… follow your heart.”
Jonathan noticed the special treatment Angela received from Jon as a long–time friend. Of course, he could see it at a glance. However, based on his years of experienc the dating scene, he could tell that both were clueless, testing each other and, most importantly, lacking confidence in themselves. Some things were clear to outsiders, but the parties involved were confused.
After listening to his words, Angela nodded and replied confidently, “I’ll try it.”
When she returned home, Jonathan was already there. He was sitting on the living room couch reading the newspaper, and when he heard the noise, he turned to look at Angela, “What’s wrong? Are you tired from class today? You don’t look too good.”
Angela shook her head, “No. It’s just the beginning of the school year, so the classes are manageable.”
Then, she sat down next to Jonathan. She stared straight at him for a few minutes until he started to feel uncomfortable.
Jonathan stiffly turned his head and curiously asked, “Is there something on my face?”
“No,” Angela replied truthfully, then blurted out, “I just suddenly wanted to look at you.”
He was speechless.
“Erhemm. Jonathan furrowed his brows slightly, turned his head, and said awkwardly, “What’s wrong? Are you afraid you won’t see me when I go for training abroad?”
Angela was taken aback, not sure what to say yet. Jonathan leaned in, his voice spreading in Angela’s ear. “So, you want to take this opportunity to look at me more?”
Angela subtly distanced herself, which led them to lock eyes with each other. Jonathan’s eyes were sincere, with a hint of a smile at the corners, as if he was earnestly asking the question.
Angela smiled at Jonathan and then readily admitted, “Yes. So, would you just let me look at you briefly, Jonathan?”
Her radiant eyes were full of warmth as she looked at Jonathan. They were waiting to see who would back down first.
In the end, Jonathan looked away first, casually pulling out the newspaper he had placed. beside him, pretending to be calm, “If you want to see, go ahead.”
“Thank you, Jonathan,” Angela said as she linked arms with him and rested her head on his shoulder. Jonathan, you got off work early today. Has the company been quiet lately?”
He sat up straight, “It’s been okay lately. What do you feel like eating tonight?”
He found Angela to be acting differently today.
Although their relationship was good, they had never been this close before when talking. They usually sat beside each other and chatted more like friends. But he was quite content with this distance.
Angela’s cheerful voice again said, “I heard a classmate share a recipe for braised beef today. She said it’s delicious, and the meat won’t be tough if you follow her method. I’m going to try it tonight.”
Jonathan was slightly surprised, “You’re going to cook by yourself?”
Angela stood up and headed towards the kitchen. “Yes, Jonathan, you can look forward to my culinary skills tonight.”
Jonathan simply responded with a faint “Hmm.”
But when Angela wasn’t looking, his smile deepened even more.
May was initially going to refuse when she heard that Angela wanted to cook herself, but when she found out it was for Jonathan, she could not help but smile. This kind of small stuff helps strengthen their relationship.
She glanced around and then walked into the living room, “Sir, I’ve been feeling a bit unwell for the past few days. Mrs. Lawson probably can’t handle everything on her own. How about you go and help her?”
Jonathan glanced at May and nodded in agreement. He could see through May’s little. scheme but was willing to go along.
Angela did not object, either.
According to the advice of Daniel’s psychologist friend, giving Jonathan a lot of love and care was important, and interacting with each other was part of it.
It’s not that I can let Jonathan be a woodblock while I’m all fired up, she thought.
So, the two of them got busy in the kitchen. Angela started directing Jonathan to do things, having him chop vegetables, boil water, and peel garlic.
Halfway through the cooking session, Angela took an apron from the kitchen cabinet and handed it to Jonathah, “Here, put this on.”
Jonathan frowned slightly, reluctant, but he silently refused to say a word.
Angela did not bother to care about his silence. She put the apron on Jonathan and said. “You’re helping in the kitchen all dressed up in your suit, no hint of smoke or fire. If my dish. doesn’t turn out well, it’s all your fault.”
Jonathan calmly said, “You’re being a bit unreasonable.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“I speak the truth!!” Angela chuckled, “Jonathan, I may not understand business matters, but you don’t understand the kitchen. Be good and listen to me.”
Jonathan saw Angela’s smile and remained silent, nodding as a sign of agreement.
Angela boldly looked at Jonathan as he chopped vegetables and remarked, “You look good, so everything you do looks good as well. The vegetables that you chopped must be especially delicious.”
Jonathan felt that today’s Angela was acting differently.
Could she have spent too much time with Daniel and picked up some bad habits? The old Angela was not like this at all. I’ll have to call Daniel later to ask if he’s given Angela any bad ideas, he thought.
With the chopped vegetables, it was time for Angela to show off her cooking skills.
At the same time, Jonathan also called Daniel, “Did you say something to Angela?“
