Chapter 2152
When Isadora saw vireo laughing, she felt even more embarrassed. "Holden, I'm sorry. I feel that I am a woman, so I should know how to cook. I wanted to cook something good for you and I'm afraid that you'll be hungry, but..."
However, she had already finished using all the ingredients in Holden's fridge. In the end, she did not even manage to make a single decent dish, she was thinking that he had seen Jane making gnocchi when she had nothing to do at home. She had put tomatoes and some vegetables in it and the gnocchi was extremely delicious. Gnocchi were easy to make. It was just mashing and mixing some flour, potatoes, and egg, and it was all done after just boiling them. In the end, Isadora failed at making gnocchi even after she had finished a small bag of flour that vireo had bought. Instead, her face, hair, and apron were all covered in flour.
Since she failed at making gnocchi, she thought of making custard pudding. Isadora had often seen Jane making custard puddings for the children. It was very delicious and was very smooth, when making custard puddings for the children, even though she made it for the children, Jane always made some for Isadora as well. It was just a few eggs, but Isadora enjoyed it very much every time she had it. Custard pudding was so easy to make. It was just whisking some eggs and milk and boiling it over medium heat. In the end, the custard pudding that Isadora made was blackened and was covered in bubbles. How could it have the slightest sense of smoothness at all?
Isadora was so dejected. Seeing that it had already been more than an hour, she was thinking that vireo should be waking up soon. What should she do? What should she do? Isadora was so anxious that she was on the verge of crying. However, she had to do what she said she would do. she had said that she was going to cook for Holden. Screw it! she was going to go all out! she put the pan on the stove, and then she imitated the way Jane fried eggs, she poured some oil in and then directly cracked the eggs into the pan.
'This must work! Haha!1
Isadora then put the lid on the pan and waited while standing in front of the pan. she wondered how long it would take for the eggs to cook. She waited and waited. In fact, it had not been that long. It was just a few minutes, when she took the lid off, she saw the eggs were all burnt, oh! Isadora truly felt so embarrassed that she did not know if she should cry or laugh. Just as she was clueless about what she should do, Holden had unexpectedly woken up and came to the kitchen. She had turned the entire kitchen into a huge mess as if it was the ruins after a war.
"I'm...sorry, Holden." Isadora hung her head and was very embarrassed.
After Holden was done laughing, he came to the front of Isadora, and he carefully looked at the girl with a face full of flour, soot, and eggs. He suddenly thought about how she could be so cute, she was so cute that his heart had completely melted, she was so great that he could not bear to let her go. He put the girl in his arms in one fell swoop and put his chin with ashy stubbles on the top of her head. Then, he mumbled softly, "Isadora, you truly are the priceless treasure that God has given me. My girl. From now on, you're my girl, my life, and my everything."
Isadora was so touched that she cried, she nestled in his arms. " But, Holden, I am so stupid. I thought that I could cook. I am already in my thirties. How could I not even know how to cook? I can't even make such simple dishes."
"You don't know how to cook, but I do," said the man gently.
