Chapter 95 Personal Chef

+8 Pearls

Determined, Teresa decided to offer the chef a high salary to work exclusively for her family, knowing it would be hard for any chef to refuse such an offer.

Linden nodded in agreement. “If we can indeed hire this chef, that woube wonderful. But we’ll have to see if the chef is interested.”

Seeing that Linden was on board with the idea, Teresa turned to the waiter entering the room. “Could you please fetch your manager?”

She was determined to secure this chef as her private cook, regardless of the Somertons‘ presence. To her, bringing this talented chef home was the top priority.

It wasn’t long before Kelly, the manager, arrived.

“Mrs. Grayson, you called for me?”

Teresa inquired, “Is the chef who prepared our meal still in the kitchen?”

Kelly, suddenly nervous and stammering, asked, “Is there an issue with the food?”

She couldn’t understand why there would be; the young chef was known for her excellent cooking and had a significant online following.

Many had been disappointed when the chef stopped taking private orders. Kelly had gone to great lengths to track her down, learning she now delivered exclusively to Sherwood Group.

Teresa waved her hand reassuringly. “No, on the contrary, I loved the food. I want to hire the chef to cook for my family. When will she be available to talk?”

Relieved, Kelly exhaled. “Oh, I see. There are just two more dishes to finish. Once she’s done, I’ll have her come see you.”

Teresa nodded in satisfaction.

Kelly went straight to the kitchen. As she stepped inside, a wave of heat and the sharp scent of chili hit her, causing her to cough and take a step back to the kitchen door.

Peering through the glass, she watched Caroline focused intently on cooking. Kelly couldn’t help but admire her dedication.

The kitchen was a tough environment, especially for a woman who might be more concerned about her skin and appearance.

Meanwhile, Caroline, unaware she was being observed, finished the last dish.

She removed her apron, prepared to collect her pay and leave quickly, hoping to avoid an encounter with the Somertons that might lead to accusations of interfering with Helen and Linden’s relationship.

As she approached the door, she almost bumped into Kelly, who greeted her with a bright smile.
