Chapter 343 Burnt
As for Josephine, she was on her phone looking for recipes online to cook for Jared. Since she was brought up in a rich family, she had never been required to cook a meal in her life. Despite that, for him, she was willing to learn as she cooked, regardless of how hard it was for her.
Jared’s eyes were filled with love when he saw Josephine busy making dinner for him in the kitchen.
Right at that moment, Jared’s phone rang.
It was a call from Walter, and he asked courteously, “Mr. Chance, are you free now? General Long would like to meet you. He’s the head of the Department of Justice in Summerbank!”
“Department of Justice? What do they want from me?” Jared frowned.
“I’m not sure about that. He just told me he’s hosting a dinner party at Glamor Hotel, and he’d like you to be there!” At that point, Walter had no idea what Jared did in Summerbank. He was merely delivering Anthony’s message.
“All right, I’ll head there now!” Jared nodded and hung up the phone.
After that, he stood up and walked toward the kitchen to tell Josephine not to cook anymore.
As soon as he stepped into the kitchen, he was met with a dark cloud of smoke. Quickly, he went to the stove and took the pot away from the fire.
“Ah! What happened?” Josephine panicked when she saw the smoke coming out of the pot.
When Jared opened the lid, he saw the pasta was burnt to a crisp. The bottom of the pot was even covered with a layer of black residue.
Josephine then looked at Jared innocently after taking a glance at the pot. “Oops. I’ve forgotten to put water in the pot!”
Jared burst into laughter and exclaimed, “It’s okay. We don’t have to cook anymore. Someone has invited us to dinner!”
