A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 1426

Suddenly, the phone outside the house rang.

Bonnie quickly walked over and picked it up.

"I'm coming back to the manor tonight,"

a cold voice murmured from the other end of the line as soon as she answered. She didn't get the chance to answer because the person on the other end immediately hung up.

"What are you talking about? That sounds so sketchy,"

Bonnie muttered in complaint to herself, the phone still placed near her ear. She walked back to the study to clean the glass shards on the floor. However, she was still thinking about the phone call. 'Did he say he was coming back today?'

"Ouch! That hurts," Bonnie yelped when she stepped on a shard of glass by accident. She immediately washed the wound, removed the glass shard using a pair of tweezers, and then disinfected it with alcohol.

Once she finished bandaging her wound, she smiled at it and said, "I'm a really good nurse."

Then, she carefully cleaned the remaining pieces. She couldn't risk anyone getting hurt again from the glass fragments.

After she finished cleaning up, Bonnie made her way to the kitchen to cook. Even though she hadn't clearly heard what Darren had said, she was confident that the phone call had meant that he would come back.

"Steamed bass, vermicelli with fried meat, crucian carp soup, and mapo tofu… Ah, yes, everything is ready!" Bonnie listed out the dishes as she placed them on the table one after another.

"Hmm, it smells really great. Danny has no idea how good I am at cooking at all," Bonnie said, complimenting herself. She smiled as she looked at the dishes set on the table.

Darren's trip back to the manor didn't take long and he soon found himself standing in front of the door. His nose immediately smelled the food and he couldn't help but let out a light chuckle at the thought of the girl preparing a meal for him.

Upon hearing the noise outside, Bonnie went out to greet Darren. With a smile, she said, "Wow, Danny, you're finally back! You've been so busy."

"If I had any idea that you would cook, I would have ordered takeout before coming here," Darren teased with a sly smile on his face.

Bonnie huffed at his teasing remarks and angrily walked back into the house.

"Then don't eat it!" she exclaimed.

As he followed her inside, Darren retorted, "I do not want to waste any food. It's not easy to earn money, you know."

Harlan had accompanied Darren to the manor, but since he didn't want to feel awkward being the third wheel, he went straight into the study, placed the documents down, and went into the kitchen.

"Boss, I've put the documents on your desk. I'll leave now," he informed him.

"Okay."

When he heard this, Harlan strode out of the manor quietly.

After they finished dinner, Bonnie cleaned up the table and went to wash the dishes. When he finished his meal, Darren knew he didn't have time to rest, so he went straight to the study and went over the resumes that Harlan had left on his desk.

Once she finished tidying everything up, Bonnie thought that she should bring him a glass of milk. Admittedly, she was also a little curious to see what he was so busy with.

With a glass of milk in her hand, she walked to the study and placed it on Darren's desk. At that moment, she caught a glimpse of a photo of a beautiful girl on the desk. The emotions in her eyes were indescribable. Bonnie's face darkened once she saw the picture. Then, she quickly turned around and left without saying a word.

Bonnie walked out to the yard and muttered to herself, "You big liar! You're a playboy! You're even looking at the picture of a beautiful girl. I will never speak to you again!"

When Bonnie suddenly ran out of the room, Darren couldn't help but feel that there was something wrong. When he noticed the photo of an applicant at the corner of the table, a slight smirk appeared on his face.

'Is she jealous because of this picture?' He felt a little happy at the thought of her being jealous. He strolled out of the study to find her and saw her sitting outside with an angry look painted on her face. He quietly walked to her side and gently said to her, "This little girl is jealous, huh? Didn't you see what that was?"

"No, I'm not jealous in any way!" Bonnie pouted. She stood up and got ready to leave.

However, Darren grabbed her wrist to stop her, which caused her heart to beat quicker.

"This is someone's resume for the company." He put the folder with the resume in Bonnie's hand.
