Chapter 229
“What are you waiting for?”
At this moment, Jesse felt someone using the CEO’s private elevator.
Who?
Could it be Nydia delivering his lunch?
He quickly walked out and arrived at the elevator. After a short while, the elevator door opened, and the Pascall family driver was standing inside.
“Vergil, Madam instructed me to bring the lunch.”
When Vergil saw the two bags, his eyes lit up.
“Thank you!” He took the two bags from the driver.
Sure enough, Nydia had made him lunch.
No wonder Boss said to wait, it was worth the wait.
He put his lunch on the table and brought the bag belonging to Jesse into the office.
“Sir, Madam had Ken bring your lunch.”
Jesse’s face softened a bit. He had been waiting for this!
He noticed that his name was on the lunch bag, written by Nydia.
Why was his name on the bag?
But he didn’t think too much about it. He even thought Vergil was very sensible today and left without him having to tell him to.
As he ate the meal prepared by Nydia, he felt happy, especially since it tasted good.
The lunch bag contained enough food for both lunch and dinner, and Nydia had already portioned it out. Jesse ate his lunch and put the dinner portion in the fridge to heat up later.
During the afternoon, Jesse noticed that Vergil was enthusiastic about his work, but when it came to mealtime, Vergil’s eagerness surprised him.
“Where are you going?”
“To eat!” Vergil replied as if it were obvious.
“Why weren’t you this enthusiastic about meals before?”
“Because the food is delicious today.”
If you’re not enthusiastic about good food, there’s something wrong with your brain!
Besides, this was Nydia’s cooking, so it was even more reason to be enthusiastic.
“Go ahead.”
Jesse wondered if the cafeteria had changed chefs, but he didn’t dwell on it.
It wasn’t until the next day that Vergil showed an unusually high level of enthusiasm during mealtime again.
“What dish is making you so eager?”
Even though Vergil wondered why the boss was asking him when he should know which dish it was, he still replied, “Missus’s cooking is really delicious! What do you think, Sir?”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
“What…?” Jesse was about to ask what he was talking about since he didn’t know what dish Vergil was referring to. But then he remembered that Chicken Tikka Masala was in his lunch yesterday, and his face immediately darkened. “Besides Chicken Tikka Masala, what else?”
“Roasted tomato risotto, baked potato.”
Jesse’s expression immediately changed, and Vergil sensed it, which scared him. What’s going on? Did Nydia prepare different meals for him and his boss?
“My wife prepared lunch for you?”
“Yes, she did.” Vergil realized he might have made a mistake. It seemed like his boss didn’t know that his wife had prepared Vergil’s lunch as well.
“Go get it for me!”
“Sir, what are you going to do?”
“Go get it!” Jesse snapped at him, scaring Vergil.
“Go get it!” he shouted, scaring Vergil who immediately darted out. When he came back, he was holding a lunch bag carefully.
“Boss, please don’t bully them. If there’s anything wrong with the food, blame it on me.” He had only tasted the lunch dishes during lunchtime and hadn’t had a chance to fully enjoy them.
But Jesse still gave him a look and took the lunch bag. It had Vergil’s name on it.
Jesse opened it and found a very ordinary lunch box inside. He felt relieved, but noticed there was no dessert.
“Did you eat the dessert?” he asked.
