Chapter 1260 Triple Your Bonus
“Never. I’ll never drop you even if it means taking the brunt of the fall myself.” Shane pecked the corner of Natalie’s mouth before carrying her down the stairs.
When they reached the living room, Natalie spotted the bodyguards stationed at every corner on the first floor and was inexorably startled. “What’s going on here, Shane?”
“This is a precaution. If Sean returns, they can seize him immediately,” Shane explained.
“How smart!” Shane lauded.
In response, Natalie giggled. “Of course! If I weren’t smart, I wouldn’t be worthy of you. Am I not right?”
Shane nodded in affirmation. “Yup, that’s right! Let’s have breakfast first.”
He proceeded to place her onto a chair.
Staring at the breakfast fare that looked rather dismal in front of her, Natalie couldn’t help quirking an eyebrow. “Who made this?”
Shane took his seat and cast his gaze at Silas.
At that moment, Silas was standing at the side with an apron on him. Thus, it went without saying that he was the person who prepared breakfast.
“You cooked this, Mr. Campbell?” Natalie exclaimed.
Silas flashed her an embarrassed smile and admitted, “I was indeed the one who cooked it, madam. However, I’m not all that good at cooking. These bodyguards can’t cook either. Having no other choice, I specially went online and searched for breakfast recipes. This is how the food turned out in the end. Please don’t disdain it, Mr. Shane, madam. I woke up at the crack of dawn to make breakfast, and this is already the best after multiple failed attempts. I’ve sampled it, and while it doesn’t look impressive and merely tastes average, it isn’t horrible. As such, you can try some.”
Hearing his shy yet expectant remark, Natalie chortled softly. “Sure! I’ll try some, then.”
After saying that, she picked up her fork and took a bite of the food. Her brows then quirked slightly.
Seeing that, Shane took the fork out of her hand. “Don’t force yourself if it tastes awful.”
“No, it’s not bad.” Nodding, Natalie added, “While it doesn’t taste superb, it’s still passable. Try some, Shane.”
As she didn’t seem to be lying, Shane hesitated for two seconds before he picked up the fork and tried a bite of the food, only to discover that it was indeed passable.
