Chapter 85
Giselle blushed in response to Casper’s question. Earlier in the day, she had passed by the market. Hence, she walked in and bought a lot of ingredients, hoping that Casper would be able to prepare dinner for them both, which she thought was a good idea.
Ever since she tasted his spaghetti Bolognese, she realized she craved his cooking very much.
Any man who could make a mean spaghetti Bolognese was definitely a skillful cook.
“What’s wrong? Is cooking for me too much to ask of you?”
Giselle made a serious expression on purpose before rolling her eyes at Casper. “I’ve given you a chance to have dinner with me. Are you telling me that you’re not keen?”
“Alright. I’ll do it.”
Casper was obviously more than keen even if he could dine with her every day. In fact, it would be even better if they could take their relationship to the next level.
“In that case, why don’t you get cracking? My stomach is already growling,” Giselle pestered while giving him the side-eye.
“Alright, I’ll get on it right away.”
After unloading the ingredients from the fridge, he quickly whipped up some spicy chicken wings, lasagna, and a salad. From their last experience, he had noticed that Giselle liked spicy food.
Therefore, he seasoned the food heavily and made sure they were spicy enough for her.
When she saw how earnest he looked when making dinner, Giselle was struck by a strange sensation. Deep down, she felt her heartstrings being tugged. She couldn’t help but feel the warmth of having a family, and she was the lady of the house.
Shaking her head, Giselle quickly recovered her senses. She returned to her room and brought out a textbook to prepare for her lessons.
Half an hour later, Casper finally announced that dinner was ready. Walking out of her room, Giselle could smell the delicious aroma in the air. Gulping in hunger, she could hear her stomach growling furiously.
The moment she sat down, she began to devour the food. She hadn’t expected Casper to be such a good cook. Compared to the spaghetti Bolognese, she liked these dishes even more.
All this while, Giselle ate a small dinner to keep herself slim. She would also avoid having any fast food too. However, there was no place for such concerns right then. The moment she picked up her fork, she began digging in enthusiastically. Soon, her lips were all oily and looked especially sexy.
When he saw how she dug into the food, Casper didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. He quickly advised, “Slow down, or you will choke.”
At that moment, Giselle savored the food so much that she was tempted to even swallow the chicken bones. She felt his cooking was even better than chefs in five-star hotels.
Staring at him with her big, beautiful eyes, Giselle asked, “Casper, be honest with me. Have you learned how to cook before? Why is your cooking so good?”
She then licked the residual sauce off her fingers, as if she hadn’t had enough.
“No. I’m just a poor kid who was forced to struggle in life and learn to fend off myself,” Casper replied.
“Hmph, no one is going to believe that bull.”
Rolling her eyes, Giselle obviously didn’t believe him. She continued devouring the food for a whole twenty minutes before finally stopping from being too full. However, when she realized that she had
cleaned her plate, she began to feel embarrassed.
In contrast to Giselle wolfing down the food, Casper ate at a leisurely pace. When he was finally done with his first serving, he realized that everything else had been cleaned out. All that was left were empty plates.
“It’s so delicious that anything else I eat going forward will pale in comparison.”
Rubbing her stomach in satisfaction, Giselle rolled her eyes at Casper. “It’s all your fault. My plan for a diet is now in shambles.”
“You thought that was good? Why do I feel as if my cooking skills have deteriorated? It seems I need to practice more whenever I get the chance,” Casper commented as he took another bite.
“Deteriorated? Your cooking is already amazing. Casper, are you saying this on purpose just to dent my pride?” Giselle asked in resignation.
When she heard Casper’s remarks, she had the urge to beat him up for making her feel bad.
All this while, she had only focused on her studies and never bothered about learning how to cook.
By complaining that his cooking skills have deteriorated, isn’t he indirectly ridiculing me?
Nevertheless, Giselle didn’t realize that she behaved differently in front of Casper now. In contrast to the formality between a teacher and her student, their interaction felt more casual, it looked more like they were chatting as friends.
“Of course not. I’m telling you the truth. Ever since I came to the university, I have only eaten at the cafeteria and never had the chance to cook for myself. Hence, today is my first time cooking here,” Casper explained honestly.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
“It seems life has molded you into someone mature…”
When she saw how far Casper sat from her, Giselle jokingly commented, “Why are you sitting so far away? It’s not like I’m going to eat you.”
“Back in my hometown, the elders always say that women are like tigers, the kind that will swallow you whole,” Casper quipped as he stared at Giselle’s breast rising and sinking along with her breathing.
“You are full of horseshit. But, I like it.”
As Giselle swept aside the fringes over her forehead, she rolled her eyes coyly at him.
When he saw how alluring she looked, Casper had the urge to throw himself at her.
“Although you look gorgeous, I am not afraid of you,” Casper replied calmly.
“Oh? Why is that?”
Suddenly, Giselle’s curiosity was piqued.
“If you do eat me, I guarantee that I will not resist. In fact, I’ll even cooperate,” Casper answered truthfully before breaking into a wide grin.
“You naughty fellow. I have no idea what goes on in that dirty mind of yours.”
Giselle shot him a glare before knocking his arm with her spoon. “Don’t forget that I’m your teacher. Also, I’m older than you by three years old.”
“I find older women to be more desirable,” Casper remarked on purpose, causing Giselle to blush all over.
As his teacher, she didn’t expect him to make such a brazen statement to tease her.
