Cornelia waltzed into the kitchen and popped open the fridge to find it stocked to the brim with food

It looked like he was gearing up for his wife’s return Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

She pulled out a prime cut of ribeye steak from the fridge, President Hartley, how about ribeye pasta for tonight?”

“Sure. You guide me. I’ll do the cooking” Marcus turned around to tie on a fresh apron. He was originally clad in a grey and white homely outfit, but even with the apron on, a didn’t affect his beauty at all. Cornelia was skeptical that this man, who probably couldn’t even boil water, could pull off this dish, “President Hartley, why don’t you just stick to boiling the pasta?” “The quickest and most effective way to learn a new skill is to do it yourself “Marcus grabbed the chopping board and knife, “Should I cut the meat first?”

Insistent on doing it himself, Cornelia didn’t want to stand in his way. “You should start by marinating the steak.”

“Alright.” Marcus obediently complied.

“What’s next?”

“Pour some olive of into the pan, wait till it starts smoking a bit, and then add the steak”

She said he did Marcus looked focused and committed, his movements still elegant as if he were not learning to cook but handling business deals worth billions.

Cornelia was slightly dazed watching him.

After completing the steps as per Cornelia’s instructions, Marcus looked up to find her gaze on him. Suddenly, he felt a wave of satisfaction. “What’s wrong? What am I doing wrong?”

His deep, soothing voice jotted Cornelia back to reality. She blushed, “After frying one side for five minutes, it’s time to flip the steak.”

“Alright.” As he replied, he effortlessly flipped the steak with a spatula.

Cornelia was taken aback by his proficiency. “President Hartley, do you know how to cook?”

Marcus responded while keeping an eye on the pan, “Though I seldom have the time to cook, I wouldn’t let myself be totally clueless about these basic life skills”

The man who helms the Hartley Group, worth billions and topping the list of global billionaires, knows that cooking is an essential life skill.

Meanwhile, some not–so–good–looking men never cook at home, claiming that it’s a woman’s job and men are meant for bigger things.

Cornelia suddenly found herself envying Mrs. Hartley.

Observing that the steak was almost done, Cornelia added. “Take the steak out and let it rest before you slice it.” She handed Marcus the tomatoes, olives, and capers she had prepared. “Now add these to the pan. After about two minutes, add the pasta and water.”

As Marcus added the ingredients to the pan, the unexpected heat wave fogged up his glasses, blurring his vision to the point he couldn’t see anything, “Cornelia, “help me take off my glasses”

Marcus was so tall that he had to stoop a little to get close to her
