451 I Will Cook for You

Looking at Isabella’s adorable smiling face, Joseph reached out to hold her waist. He gave a kiss on her forehead and said with a smile, “When I woke up in the morning and didn’t see you, I thought that you ran away from home without saying a word. Why did you wake up early to cook?”

Isabella pouted and acted like a spoiled child. “Today is the Qixi Festival, so I want to make you a sumptuous breakfast. Do you have any gifts for me?”

Joseph was reaching for the food on the table when he heard this. He was stunned for a moment and asked, “Today is the Qixi Festival?”

“Yes!” Isabella frowned unhappily. “Did you forget it? This is our first Qixi Festival.”

Joseph looked at William blankly. William immediately cleared his throat and explained, “It’s the Chinese Valentine’s Day. It’s based on a romantic legend about a weaver girl and an ox herd..”

Joseph looked a little embarrassed and said innocently, “The Chinese Valentine’s Day? Seriously? Why haven’t I heard of it before...”

Isabella pouted and released Joseph. “Tell me directly if you forget it. Don’t play dumb!”

Joseph was speechless.

William laughed and helped Joseph out of the situation, “Ms. Isabella, this isn’t Mr. Joseph’s fault. We rarely celebrate the Qixi Festival. A few years ago, Master Wilson had celebrated it. But for these past few years, he had been recuperating and living abroad. Since then, no one at the Wilson Manor had celebrated this festival anymore. Mr. Joseph is always busy; he won’t pay attention to this kind of festival.”

.....

William then looked at Joseph and winked at him, “Mr. Joseph, you have to pay attention in the future. After all, it’s a kind of Valentine’s Day.”

Joseph immediately nodded and looked at Isabella. “How about this, I’ll give you whatever you want later. This time, it’s my fault, so you can have two gifts.”

Isabella laughed happily. “Forget it, I forgive you. You just gave me a big diamond ring yesterday.”

Then she noticed that Joseph continued to stuff food into his mouth, so she patted Joseph’s hand, “You haven’t washed your face and brushed your teeth yet! Don’t ruin my delicate dishes!”

Joseph smiled and hurriedly grabbed two pieces of food like a greedy child. “What is this red stuff? Although it is sweet, it tastes fresh and smells fragrant. It suits my taste.”

“This is the fresh rose I picked in the backyard early in the morning. I squeezed the juice and added some honey, then made it into the rose cake. My secret recipe! Not bad, right? But this is for Angelina!”

Isabella proudly introduced the dishes one by one, “This is the vegetable porridge I made for Charlie. Oh, and this, black pepper chicken breast, delicious and of high protein, it’s for you. It will help you to build your body!”

Joseph tasted every dish one by one following Isabella’s introduction. Joseph was not gluttonous, but now he grabbed food directly with his hands. While eating, he kept praising Isabella, “Great, it’s so good. I have never eaten such chicken breast before.”

In the end, he suddenly thought of something and asked, “Have you considered everyone? What about your own?”

Isabella did not mind. “I’ll just eat with you. I’m not picky.”

Joseph looked at Isabella and thought for a moment. “That’s not enough. Since it’s a festival, let the chef make you whatever you like.”

Isabella held Joseph’s arm sweetly, “Then accompany me for a whole day and bring me out to have fun!”

Joseph stuffed a small piece of rose cake into Isabella’s mouth and smiled. “Alright, I’ll take you out for a feast tonight to compensate you!”

Isabella smiled happily. But William had a different opinion. “Although the feast is good, today is the first Qixi Festival for Mr. Joseph and Ms. Isabella. It’s better to have a gift. Why don’t you prepare one now?”

Joseph and Isabella were both stunned and said in unison, “Prepare what?”

William narrowed his eyes and said with a crafty smile, “Prepare a dish.”

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen curious servants quickly gathered around the kitchen, looking at Joseph excitedly, who had never cooked before...

...

A minute later, Joseph, who had been eating in front of the table just now, changed his position greatly. He stood in front of the stove in a big apron, holding a kitchen knife in one hand and a spoon in the other. He looked confused.

William smiled and encouraged him, “Mr. Joseph, the vinegar shredded potato is really the simplest dish. Don’t be so nervous. Put down the knife and wash the potatoes first.”

Joseph nodded stiffly and turned on the tap. The water was so strong that it splashed all over Joseph’s clothes when the potato was placed under the tap, so Joseph awkwardly turned off the tap.

Isabella covered her mouth and tried to hold back her laughter, which made her face red.

“Then peel the potatoes now.” William patiently instructed. “Mr. Joseph, you are wrong. You took the paring knife in the wrong way. Turn it around. No, it’s not 180 degrees. It’s 90 degrees clockwise.”

Joseph clumsily pared it twice, feeling extremely difficult. He raised his head and looked at Isabella with a pitiful face, “Darling, I can’t make this. Let’s go out for dinner tonight.”

Isabella widened her eyes, looking extremely innocent. “No, nothing can compare to what my husband cooks. It’s okay. Today, no matter what you cook, I will eat them all. Honey, don’t disappoint me! That’s the punishment for you since you forget that today is such an important day.”

Joseph looked at Isabella’s “unreasonable” look, and lowered his head in the grievance, “Alright, I’ll do it.”

After a while, he finally put the potato strips of different sizes into the pan and scrambled to add oil and vinegar with the guidance of William. He shouted in horror, “William! The fire is out! It’s burnt! It’s burnt!”

Isabella, who was at the side, finally couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

At such a young age, Joseph was able to control the world’s top-ranking Global Group. He was the first successor of the Wilson Consortium. Whether he faced contracts of billions or powerful competitors, he had always been full of confidence.

Who would have thought that such a man who had experienced a lot would make the entire kitchen into a mess when cooking?

No matter what he did, it was as if he was born to be all-powerful. Why was he so awkward when it came to cooking in the kitchen?

Isabella laughed for a while. Looking at Joseph’s crazed and panicked expression, she felt full of happiness.

Perhaps this was true love.

A month ago, Joseph almost killed her when washing a bowl. He was so annoyed.

However, a month later, he was willing to cook for her as a gift.

Looking at Joseph’s exhausted look, Isabella felt so moved.
