Read His Precious Love Chapter 38 Not Spoiling The Picky Eaters

“What’s going on?”

“Good morning, Mr. Faymon,” Rayna shyly greeted the man. “I heard that you needed someone to take care of you, so I came uninvited. I hope you don’t mind.”

Despite forcibly maintaining the bright smile on her face, Rayna’s thoughts were running wild deep down. Did you really think I wanted to come? It’s because I owed you too many favors and I wanted to clear them off as quickly as I can. How terrible it’ll be to work for Faymon Group for the rest of my life!

Curtis then turned to look at Gabriel. With a smile that did not reach his eyes, he said, “Hm? Did I need someone to take care of me?”

A chill ran down Gabriel’s spine as his employer stared at him. Nevertheless, as he pushed his glasses higher up his nose bridge, he said without any changes to his expression, “Yes, Mr. Faymon. The part-time lady has said that something has cropped up at home, so she won’t be able to come for the next few days. I have many things to deal with, so I’m afraid that I might miss out on some of the tasks you’ll assign to me. Moreover, Ms. Garland is a good cook, and she’s an efficient young woman. That’s why I’ve brought her here.”

Rayna quickly nodded in agreement. “I don’t know how to make sweet soup, but I’m good at cooking. Don’t worry, Mr. Faymon. I’ll take good care of you until you recover.”

Curtis was no fool, so he knew that Rayna was there to return the favor.

Still, he said nothing about it. After all, the only person he trusted in the country was Gabriel, and Gabriel was a busy man. Indeed, he needed someone to help him with the documents.

“I understand. Carry on with your work, then,” Curtis said to Gabriel. “Ms. Garland will be here to help me out these few days. If there isn’t as much work, do clean up the secretarial department. It’s too dirty there.”

“I’ll deal with it,” Gabriel replied, understanding what Curtis meant.

Before Gabriel left, he said to Rayna, “Ms. Garland, I’ll leave Mr. Faymon’s daily tasks to you.”

Rayna hummed in response but was confused deep down.

This is such a huge mansion, and there are robot vacuums around. There’s no need for me to clean this place up at all. I’m only in charge of cooking, right? What else should I do?

Nevertheless, Rayna’s thoughts were soon proven to be wrong, for the cooking part was challenging.

Before going to the mansion, she and Gabriel had gone to the supermarket for a grocery trip. They had bought meat that was good for wound healing, but Curtis was exceptionally picky. He did not eat fish, he did not eat pork, and he did not eat cauliflower.

Furthermore, he was a little allergic to peanuts and did not like peanut butter.

His coffee had to be made with manually-grounded beans, and it also had to be freshly brewed. When he was going through his documents, he needed to have a cup of coffee.

“Mr. Faymon, you’re so…” The corner of Rayna’s lips twitched as she looked at her list of reminders. “Don’t you think you’re too picky?”

It’s a miracle that an insanely picky man like him is a hundred and eighty-eight centimeters tall and isn’t as skinny as a stick. Not even Roxanne’s this picky!

“Everyone has foods they don’t like,” Curtis said as he worked away on the laptop he had placed on the coffee table. “It’s normal and has nothing to do with being picky with food.”

Rayna was speechless as she gritted her teeth. She hated accommodating others the most.

Furthermore, bringing all those groceries back had been tiring, and it would be so wasteful to throw the food she bought just because he was picky. After all, food prices were getting higher and higher.

After a moment of contemplation, she darted into the kitchen and called her mother. “Mom, what do I do if someone is picky with their food and refuses to eat pork?”

“Is your sister picky with her food again?”

Rayna scoffed. “No. Rayna’s much better than him.”

“Then mince the pork and marinate it before making meatballs. You know how to do it, right?” Linda was a chef in the past, and she soon came up with an idea. “If you have eggplants, you can make stuffed eggplants.”

“What if he can tell it’s pork?”

“Use condiments. The meat will be tender, and he won’t be able to figure it out.”

Rayna then searched through the bottles and cans before finding the condiment that her mother had told her about. Then, she noted down the steps for marinating meat before asking Linda how she should cook the fish. As it turned out, she should make them into meatballs or stuff the fish meat into steamed eggs.

After that, Rayna put on her apron and began her work in the kitchen.
