Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 176
Lumma went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to find it filled to the brim with food. Not only could she cook a few home-style dishes, but she could also prepare a whole banquet.
She remembered the last time she helped him, the large refrigerator had only sporadic ingredients, without a trace of homey feeling.
Now that the fridge was so full, it seemed like he was preparing for his wife’s return.
Lumma took out a piece of high-quality chicken breast from the fridge and asked, “Mr. Hills, how about making paella tonight?”
“Okay. You guide me, and I’ll cook,” said Adam as he turned around and put on a brand new apron. He was dressed in a grey and white home outfit, and the apron only added to his handsomeness.
Lumma didn’t believe that someone who never cooked could make this dish well. “Mr. Hills, how about this? I’ll prepare the ingredients, and you can handle the frying and sautéing,’
“The fastest and most effective way to learn a new skill is to do it yourself,” Adam said as he took down the cutting board and knife. “Should I start by cutting the meat?”
He insisted on doing it himself, and Lumma couldn’t stop him. “Okay, you wash the meat first, and then cut the chicken breast into small pieces.”
“Okay.” Adam obediently followed her instructions, and Lumma was surprised that his knife skills
were pretty good.
If she didn’t know that he never cooked, she would have thought he was a full-time husband who cooked regularly.
As expected, excellent people were excellent in every aspect.
Adam cut the meat, while Lumma cut the vegetables and took out some shrimp and squid rings from the fridge. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
Once Lumma finished preparing the vegetables, Adam had already cut the chicken breast into small pieces. “What’s the next step?” he asked.
“Put some olive oil in a large skillet, fry the chicken pieces until they turn slightly yellow, then add the vegetables,” Lumma said, taking out a bag of saffron from the dry goods area. “Saffron can make the food look more appetizing. Then mix the meat with the seasoning evenly.”
She spoke, and he acted, focused and serious, with elegant movements. It was as if he wasn’t learning how to cook, but instead dealing with a high-value order.
Lumma looked at him, slightly dazed…
Adam finished cooking according to Lumma’s instructions and looked up to meet her gaze. He
suddenly felt good. “What’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?”
His deep and pleasant voice brought Lumma’s thoughts back, and she blushed with embarrassment. “Oh, we need to prepare some fish soup
“Okay.” As he spoke, he had already taken out the fish soup and was heating it in another pot.
Watching his skilled movements, Lumma was surprised. “Mr. Hills, can you cook?”
“Although I usually don’t have time to cook, I won’t let myself not have these basic life skills,” he replied while heating the soup.
He was the leader of the Hills Group, with a net worth of billions and ranked first on the global rich list. He knew that cooking was a necessary life skill.
However, some men were not only ugly but also useless. When they returned home, they acted like big bosses and never cooked. They even said that cooking was women’s work and that men were.
meant for greater things.
Lumma suddenly felt that Adam’s wife must have saved the world in her previous life for her to meet such a good man in this life.
After Adam prepared the fish soup, Lumma said, “Add the chicken that was prepared earlier to the pot. Slowly add the fish soup and stir. Cook for about 20 minutes. At about 10 minutes, add the peas
and green beans on top.”
Lumma finished the whole process in one breath. Unexpectedly, when Adam poured the
ingredients into the pot, the oil sizzled and the heat hit him in the face, causing his glasses to fog up and he couldn’t see anything, “Lumma, help me take off my glasses.”
