Bring Your A Game, Mr novel Chapter 1019

"Ahhhhhh! Is Zephyr even human? How can he endure that? Is he a turtle in his past life?" Narissa went to Elise and vented her frustration.

Finding it funny, she jokingly said, "I didn't expect him to have such a good temper. You went too far, but he didn't get angry at all."

"Good temper my foot. He just can't bear to lose a month's free maid service!" Narissa retorted.

"Well, you do owe him. A bet is a bet. It's reasonable even if he really wants you to serve him for a month," Elise said in all fairness.

"Hey! If you keep speaking up for that loser, I'm going to get angry!" Rage overtook Narissa at this moment. Since she was still upset, all she wanted was comfort, not to hear more lectures.

"Who said I was speaking up for Zephyr? I'm speaking up for you, okay?" Elise patiently coaxed her.

"Really? I can't tell." Narissa pouted, showing she was still unhappy.

"Think about it. Zephyr has a good reputation in the underworld. Based on what you've told me, it's highly probable that he's not a heartless person. Maybe, he just wanted to teach you a lesson and make you yield after all this time."

"So, he wants me to apologize to him? That's so embarrassing." Narissa had been persisting for so long because she didn't want to be overshadowed by Zephyr. Thus, asking her to yield was no different from asking for her life.

"Actually, some things don't necessarily have to be said. It's up to you whether you want to keep your pride or want your freedom back." After patting her shoulder, Elise stood up to go back inside. "Think about it carefully."

Narissa was contemplating, and only when Elise was about to enter the room did she hurriedly call out, "Wait, El."

"What else do you need to figure out?" Elise asked patiently after turning around.

Just then, Narissa walked up to her and hooked her arm, whispering in a coquettish voice, "Teach me how to cook. I don't know how…"

…

After an entire afternoon, Narissa finally made four dishes and a soup with Elise's guidance.

When Jamie returned home from work, he smelled the food from afar. The moment he saw the table filled with home-cooked food, he pretended to salivate and commented, "It's a shame that I'm not the first one to taste my wife's cooking."

These dishes were made as an apology to Zephyr. Narissa had already told him on the phone.

Hearing that, Narissa picked up a piece of roasted pork with a fork and fed it to him, saying, "Here, you are now."

"It's so good! Darling, you're so clever and deft. Where can people find a virtuous wife like you, who can take care of work outside and housework at home, nowadays? I'm truly blessed," Jamie flattered her excessively.

"That's enough, Jamie." Elise didn't want to be the third wheel. "It's about time. Zephyr should be home by now. It'll be just right if you send the food over now."

"Right." After Jamie glanced at the wall clock, he started to pack up the food. "I'll go with you, darling."

"I'm afraid you'll just make things more complicated." Elise didn't have high hopes for him. If he could really help reconcile the two, he wouldn't have waited until today.

In fact, Narissa didn't plan on having company either. "I'll take care of my own business. I can go alone. Besides, I'd feel embarrassed with someone else watching."

"Okay then. I'll be here, supporting you from afar. You can do it, darling!"
