When Bonnie noticed him, she looked surprised.
“How did you get here so quickly?”
“Didn’t you just say to wait for you for ten minutes? Not even five minutes had passed.”
“Of course, it’s to see you faster,” Ivor said with a smile. He walked over and took Bonnie’s hand, leading her outside. “Let’s go home.”
“Okay.” Bonnie lightly curled her lips and leisurely followed his steps.
Back at home, Bonnie started preparing the ingredients.
Ivor didn’t idle. He helped wash and cut vegetables on the side. The two of them cooperated very tacitly, and they finished cooking the meal in just an hour. Before the final wagyu steak was plated, Bonnie picked up a piece with a fork and brought it to Ivor’s lips.
“Try it and see how it tastes. Is it seasoned enough? If not, I can add more salt.”
Ivor leaned in, took the steak off the fork, and enjoyed it.
“Mm… your cooking is just wonderful. Even a five-star chef would feel inferior in front of you.”
“Always so smooth-tongued.” Bonnie rolled her eyes, then turned around and placed the remaining steak on a plate.
“The taste is good enough. Hurry and bring it out. I’ll wash my hands, and then we can eat.”
Ivor took the plate from her. Ivor’s lips curled up slightly with a hint of pleasure.
“Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you. Whatever my honey asks me to do, I’ll do it.”
Bonnie rolled her eyes again and didn’t respond, She started washing her hands.
Ivor’s lips curled up a bit more, no longer teasing Bonnie, and he carried the plate out of the kitchen.
Ivor’s phone rang nonstop during dinner, with one business item after another requiring his attention.
There were also some calls discussing plans and decisions regarding the bid for the partnership with Ferryrover Jewelry.
He lowered his voice so Bonnie wouldn’t overhear.
Although Bonnie couldn’t hear what the person on the other end of the phone was saying, she could tell from Ivor’s tone that this matter seemed tricky.
So when Ivor finished his call, she asked, “Is something going on in your company recently?”
She remembered that Ivor had never been so frequently on the phone before; this was the first time.
Ivor pretended to be nonchalant, and responded, “Nothing, just that the company is pushing forward with an important project recently, and they have a lot of indecision, so they’re calling to ask for my opinion.” “Really?” Bonnie didn’t believe it.
Ivor smiled, picked up some food for Bonnie, and then put it on her plate. “Of course, it’s true. Would I need to lie to you about such a trivial matter?”
After careful thought, Bonnie realized it made sense and didn’t dwell on it any longer.
“Then eat quickly. Finish your work after eating. The sooner you finish your work, the sooner you can sleep. Otherwise, if you stay up late like this all the time, your body won’t be able to handle it.”
