My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 2478

Zacharias snorted. "Can't your love affair be made public?" Shirley was rendered speechless. Couldn't this man hold back his words?

"It's not that it can't be made public, but I haven't announced it yet. So, Mr. Flintstone, please curb your curiosity!" she retorted.

Zacharias glanced at his wristwatch. He had already wasted a lot of his time talking to her, and he still had a pile of work waiting for him.

"You may leave."

Shirley was about to leave when the man suddenly thought of something and said, "Don't go to bed yet. Cook supper for me at 10.30PM."

She blinked. Why did he want to eat supper late at night? She couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine."

"I remember there are pierogi and dumplings in the fridge." Shirley thought that those were easy to make. "Dumplings then!" The man decided.

"Okay. I'll wait for you until 10.30PM," she replied. After that, she opened the door and left.

The man sitting at the table found it hard to: immediately focus on work. Another question lingered in his mind-who was the man Shirley secretly admired?

"I'll come down," the man answered her. "All right. I'll go down and cook for you," she said before closing the door.

She went downstairs to the kitchen and found the frozen dumplings. They weren't the packaged ones from the supermarket but specially provided for Zacharias' household.

She realized she was a bit hungry but decided not to eat to maintain her figure. She ended up cooking twenty dumplings unintentionally. When she realized it, it was already too late. Shirley had no choice but to go with it. She placed her iPad nearby while searching for tutorial videos.

She learned to cook on the spot. She took a bowl, followed the instructions to prepare a fragrant sauce, and sprinkled chopped green onions on top, making it visually appealing. She scooped ten dumplings using a ladle into the soup and felt a sense of accomplishment.

Zacharias came downstairs and saw the captivating figure standing in front of the kitchen counter. He narrowed his eyes. Had she taken a shower?
