Daddy’s Hot Sauce

When they finally arrived at his penthouse, Anders quickly walked inside the building without any words, while Emily was in a hurry to follow him inside. They both went inside the elevator and still no one was speaking like the wall was too thick to break the silence.

After a couple of seconds the bell in the elevator rang and Anders quickly went out and walked straight to his kitchen.

Emily shook her head in annoyance as she could not understand why he acted like this, wherein obviously it was his fault in the first place. She crossed both of her arms and walked straight to the living room and sat there for a while, because she was waiting for him to be out of the kitchen.

After a while of waiting for him, Emily smelt an enchanting dish and heard him calling her name.

“Emily!”

She quickly stood up and went to the kitchen, and from there she saw Anders was cooking at this hour, it was already midnight but he still managed to cook food.

“Come over here,”

Emily walked toward his side and saw him preparing some ingredients. Her eyes suddenly pinned on his every movement as if it was the only thing she could see at the moment.

This man is too perfect physically, his face rugged and sharp and pretty obvious that his torso was wrapped in sinewy muscles with his tanned skin. Now, I understand why many girls wanted to be with him. He’s handsome, famous and rich.

“Are you listening to me?” Anders flicked his finger in front of Emily.

Emily lightly nodded her head and said, “Y-Yes, please continue, Mr. Winston,”

“Remember cutting this part of the meat will make it release the juices that we want for this meal,”

Then, she showed more on how to cut it in the right way, and so did the other ingredients as well.

Emily was stunned by the way he moved fast on preparing the dish.

“Don’t just stand there, help me on this!” he commanded her.

Emily was in a hurry and grabbed the plate from her side so Anders could put the dish on the plate. Then, she grabbed a table napkin and wiped off the excess of it.

“Starting tomorrow I want you to prepare this meal in the morning,” he seriously said while he was washing his hands on the sink.

“What?! You want me to be your cook? C’mon Mr. Winston. I-I cannot do that, I can’t even cut a simple cut in salmon nor in beef,” she mumbled while following him at the dining table.

Anders grabbed a plate of the food that he cooked and sat on the table, “Manners, please, I need to enjoy the meal,”

Emily walked out and with her heavy feet she went to the living room and stayed there. She wanted to protest about her task tomorrow.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I can’t even make my own food, I hate cooking and my parents knew that,” she mumbled while touching the flower on the vase.

Anders was checking his ipad and reading some articles while having his meal and then, and then after a while he was done with his food and put all the dirty plates on the sink.

“Emily!”

She opened her eyes and heard someone calling her name. She washed off her face and noticed that Anders was calling her, she walked toward the kitchen and saw him pointing out the sink full of dirty plates and pan.

“Clean this mess,” she commanded her unemotionally and left the kitchen.

Emily walked straight to the sink and widened her eyes as there were too many dishes to clean. She put the apron to avoid getting wet while washing the dishes and a pair of gloves so her hands would not get hurt after washing all those dirty pans and plates.

“Why is he doing this to me?”

“I have never done anything on him,”

She sighed and tears were forming in her eyes. Emily was never done any house chores not because she was like a spoiled brat in the family but she was never good at it, mostly got accidents by simply washing the dishes.

Now that she was working for him, Emily must have been cautious in every move she had to make.

Tears were filling up her cheeks and causing her to slip the plate on her hand while washing it on the sink and that hit the ground and broke into pieces.

“Oh my gosh!”

Then, she quickly grabbed it from the floor and made her scream. She quickly stood up and washed her hands with water and whispered, “Clumsy,”

After a while she wiped off her tears and grabbed a dust cleaner and cleaned the floor and made sure that there was nothing left on the floor.

On the other hand, Anders was just watching her from a distance and did not even go over her to help. Then, he turned and walked back to his room.

Emily felt the pain on her back after washing all the dishes and when she looked at the clock it was already 2am, her eyes widened as she was still awake at this hour.

She went to the living room and rested on it. She felt bored as her phone was thrown into the abyss and that still made her angry with him. But, she has to let the situation for now as she was thinking about the contract between her and Mr. Winston.

The next day, Emily whimpered and felt the coldness touching her skin, she turned and almost fell on the ground and that made her awake and widened her eyes.

“Cook breakfast!” she whispered and looked at her watch and saw it was already ten in the morning.

She was about to stand up when she noticed a piece of paper and a note on the table. Then, she read the paper next to it and finally it was the contract that they both agreed upon just to please Mr. Anders to agree on the collaboration.

Upon reading the document, Emily shook her head and was in disbelief about the rules.
