Chapter 829 A Man Learning to Cook
When Jude gawked at Charles, her stare gave rise to a bad feeling within him about what was to come. “Why would you have the chef prepare my meal?”
Upon hearing that, Charles let out a chuckle. “Who else would possibly be in charge if not the chef? Or would you like some takeaway? We can do that too.” There was a loving look in his eyes. “How dare you even suggest takeaways? They’re unhealthy and unsanitary. What are you even thinking?”
Charles didn’t know what to say to that. What does she want, then? “Jude, can’t you just tell me what you want me to do?”
“What’s with your attitude?” Jude was appraising him in a condescending manner with her arms crossed.
Charles remained patient with her. “I wasn’t trying to imply anything. All I hope for is that you would express your needs directly so that I can start making arrangements.” Recently, he had learned to be careful when he spoke. As someone who was more than ten years older than Jude, being lectured by her was such a shame. “I’m telling you to cook for me.”
“I don’t know how to cook.” Charles wore a look of resignation upon recalling that he never even needed to cook in the kitchen. “Jude, you know I rarely even step into the kitchen.”
Hearing that only irked her more. “What about me? I was taught nothing about pregnancy and labor, but I did both for you nonetheless! Nobody knows everything from birth! You can learn to cook if you don’t know how!”
Charles kept his silence, which Jude took as a refusal. “Are you not willing to learn? Am I not worth the effort? Charles, I’m pregnant with your baby, your flesh and blood. What are your contributions while I suffer because of this pregnancy? Are you really so unwilling to cook for me?”
“Alright, fine. I’ll learn to cook for you.” Charles nodded rapidly. Jude’s line of questioning was extremely effective no matter the circumstances. “What’s with that attitude? Forget about it if you don’t feel like learning!” “I never said I don’t!” “Why did you raise your voice?”
