Becoming the Richest Man Alive

Chapter 104

Casper couldn’t stop thinking about Giselle. When he arrived at the female dorm, he saw her in a white dress with long fluttering hair, standing on the balcony.

With a smile, he waved his hand at her and caught her attention.

Giselle, on the other hand, was dazed. She never thought Casper would come since the latter said there was something that he needed to attend to and that he couldn’t cook for her. After having tasted the man’s cooking, Giselle found other food, including hers, untempting.

Hence, she didn’t have much appetite. After having washed her hair, she was getting some fresh air on the balcony when Casper arrived.

Soon after, she opened the door and led him into the house. Casper let out a soft chuckle before saying, “Why are you standing on the balcony? The wind is blowing hard. You might get a headache exposing yourself to the wind.”

Then, he asked, “Have you eaten?”

With her face flushed, Giselle answered, “Not yet…”

“Why didn’t you eat? Aren’t you hungry?”

Giselle avoided his eyes. She couldn’t possibly tell him that she had gotten used to eating the food he prepared and that she had now lost interest in cooking herself.

“Not really,” she muttered.

Unconvinced, Casper cast his doubtful eyes at her. The latter felt so embarrassed under his gaze that even her ears turned red.

Seeing that, Casper couldn’t help but chuckle. “It’s been a busy day, and I haven’t eaten as well. Let’s eat together.”

“Sure.”

Giselle flashed him a bright smile, her eyes sparkling like the stars in the night sky.

At that moment, she looked cheerful, like a kid who got her favorite toy.

Oh, she’s so cute! Casper’s heart melted. He cleared his throat and got hold of himself before making his way into the kitchen.

He opened the refrigerator and scanned through the ingredients in it.

Soon after, he grabbed the beef and a few bell peppers. In no time, the bell peppers were being cut into halves with their cores removed. Next, he finely chopped the beef and seasoned it before stuffing it into the bell peppers. In the skillet, the beef stuffed peppers were then being pan-fried until they became golden brown.

Meanwhile, Giselle was standing by the kitchen door, her nostrils filled with savory aromas. “It smells so good,” she exclaimed.

Hearing the sizzle, her heart was full of anticipation. She had fallen in love with the man’s cooking.

I wonder who will be the lucky one to marry Casper. What a blessing it is that she can enjoy his cooking every day!

As the thought came into her mind, Giselle felt upset. At the same time, jealousy had reared its ugly head.

The next moment, she blurted out, “What kind of woman do you like?”

Casper was searing the other side of the pepper. When he heard her question that came out of nowhere, he looked up at her questioningly. “Huh?”

Why was she suddenly asking me this?

Giselle, too, realized that her question was rather abrupt. She looked away and let out a cough before explaining uneasily, “Well, your cooking is really delicious. I guess whoever gets to be your wife must be happy since she can enjoy your cooking every day. I’m just curious about the type of woman you like. I mean… If I find someone suitable for you, I can introduce her to you. By that time, I can please your wife to scrounge free meals off of you at your house every day.”

Casper was left dazed by her jabber.

After a while, he let out a chuckle. “I like women like you.”

At that instant, Giselle could hear nothing but the sound of her heartbeat.

“D-Don’t joke around!” Or I might take it seriously.

Her face flushed scarlet. Soon, a confident smile appeared on her face. “Well, young ladies as outstanding as me are rare. Perhaps you can’t even find someone like me out there.”

Casper nodded and concurred with her, “Indeed, you’re right.” You’re kind and beautiful. Young ladies like you are indeed rare. Casper Simpson, take your chance! Don’t let this opportunity slip through your fingers!

He quickly added, “Well, I can’t find it elsewhere, but there’s one right in front of me.”

Giselle smiled at his words while shaking her head internally. This man sure loves to joke!

Nevertheless, she couldn’t help it when her heart leaped with joy.

Seeing that Casper had dished up the stuffed peppers, she entered the kitchen and offered to help.

“Let me help you.”

“Here you go.”

Just as Casper was about to hand the plate over to Giselle, the latter lost her footing and lurched in his direction.

“Watch out!”

Holding the plate with one hand, Casper grabbed hold of Giselle with the other.

The latter bumped into his chest and hurt her nose. Instantly, the pain from her nose made her eyes water.

In his arms, Giselle looked up at the man through reddened eyes. Her nose tip had turned red. “My nose hurts. Your muscles are hard.”

Casper’s chuckled. “I’m sorry. I’ll eat more and increase my body fat. Next time, when you fall into my arms again, I’ll be a better cushion,” he teased.

Then, he put down the plate and helped rub her nose gently.

Meanwhile, Giselle traced her eyes over the man’s handsome side face. Seeing him focusing his eyes on her, she felt the urge to kiss him.

Muack!

The next second, she pulled herself out of his arms and ran out of the kitchen.

Casper was stunned. He touched his face where the soft sensation of her lips still lingered.

He never thought the kind and lovely BU Goddess would take the initiative to kiss him.

Meanwhile, Giselle was back in her bedroom. She was leaning against the door, cupping her cheeks.

What have I done? I must have lost my mind just now!

She then closed her eyes and howled internally. Oh no! How am I gonna face Casper? He’s my friend, my student!

On the other hand, Casper had served the dishes. He was sitting at the dining table, giggling. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Ha! My effort has not gone to waste. It turns out that Giselle has feelings for me as well.

Later, he went to Giselle’s bedroom and knocked on the door.

He cleared his throat before calling out, “Let’s eat. Come out now.”

Feeling shy, Giselle was reluctant to face the man.

Hence, she rejected, “No, I’m fine. You can eat them. I’m not that hungry.”

Casper knew it took time for her to overcome her shyness. Afraid that she might be starving, he had no choice but to leave first.

“I’m leaving, so you can come out now, or the food will get cold.”

After the sound of the door closing rang out, Giselle waited for a few seconds before she came out of her bedroom.

There was no one in the living room but a few dishes on the dining table, still steaming.

He has left just like that?

Sitting at the dining table, Giselle felt a tinge of disappointment. At the same time, she was abashed for what she had done earlier.

She took out her phone and hesitatingly clicked on WhatsApp.

After typing a few words, she deleted them again.

Ugh! That won’t do! The young lady pouted.

Eventually, she edited the message and then sent it: It was an accident just now. Please don’t concern yourself about it.

In the meantime, Casper had reached the ground floor when his phone vibrated.

He grinned upon seeing the message. Soon, he replied: I know, Ms. Clauder. It was an accidental kiss.

Inexplicably, Giselle’s face flushed a crimson red after reading his reply message.
