A few minutes later, Emily stood speechless in front of the clean cabinets and kitchenware.
Charlie had actually created a kitchen for her.
It was originally a wall full of bookshelves, but after Charlie pushed some switches, the shelves separated to reveal a kitchen.
The kitchen was spacious, divided into Chinese and Western styles.
All the kitchen appliances were available, but they looked like they hadn't been used even once.
Emily was stunned for a moment, then turned and said, "But we don't have any ingredients!"
"Well, go buy some; do I need to teach you that?" Charlie replied with a stern face.
"Okay, I'll go now."
Emily took a deep breath and turned to leave.
While waiting for the elevator, she noticed Charlie also picking up his suit jacket and heading out.
Seeing her puzzled look, he said impatiently, "I'll take you. If you're left to find the nearest supermarket, God knows how long it'll take. I'm hungry!"
Emily muttered to herself, Just now he said he wasn't hungry; now he's suddenly starving?
When did this man become so fickle?
They went straight to the underground garage, where Charlie drove her to a nearby supermarket to buy ingredients.
Upon entering the supermarket, Emily pushed the cart towards the fresh produce section, glancing around and asking Charlie, "Mr. James, what do you want for lunch?"
"Whatever!"
Emily spotted some ready-cut steaks and asked, "We're a bit pressed for time today; how about pan-fried steak?"
Charlie frowned. "This kind of steak isn't good. The worst thing an assistant can do is inconvenience the boss for their own convenience!"
"Huh?" Emily stared at him, confused.
Charlie used to like her, but what he thought at this time was that maybe it was her silly appearance that was targeted by love rat, slept with her and dumped her again!
Thinking about it, he felt irritated and pushed her away, striding towards the car.
Emily was pushed back a little, watching his back in incomprehension.
How did she embarrass him? And when did she make him angry?
Emily stood there for a while, watching Charlie put the bags in the trunk. To avoid another scolding, she hurriedly followed.
In the car, Charlie's face was still stern. He drove fast, as if deliberately venting his anger.
Emily felt completely at a loss with Charlie. She was just trying to help him carry the grocery bags, fulfilling her duties as an assistant. Why was he so angry?

As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
