Chapter 337
Since Samuel had already asked the other housekeepers to leave, he rolled up his sleeves and got ready to cook. He did not even ask Gavin to help.
He slipped a bright yellow apron on and started preparing food in the kitchen, while Natalie watched him from the kitchen entrance.
Samuel was a man at the helm at his company. He was widely respected at work for being a firm and decisive leader. Natalie appreciated his willingness to make food for her on his own.
It was not easy making gazpacho. He had to get all the ingredients and spices ready before putting them into the food processor.
His hands moved adroitly as he cut up the tomatoes, garlic, and onions.
Soon enough, the smell of delicious broth spread through the kitchen.
Natalie had never expected she would meet someone who love her so dearly. She had always thought that her life would be a long journey of strife.
Her heart was full as she watched Samuel move around in the kitchen.
After a while, Samuel came over with a bowl of soup in his hands.

“Here. Try some.”
“Thanks.”
Natalie nodded and picked up the spoon. The texture of the soup was fine and delicate, while the bread crumbs were crunchy. The base had a delicious and refreshing taste. These spoonfuls of goodness were enough to drive the fatigue that she felt from work away.
“It’s tasty!”
“I’m glad you like it,” Samuel replied.
Natalie smiled as she put a piece of bread chunk in her mouth.
She passed the spoon to Samuel, beckoning him to have some too, but he did not take the spoon from her. “This is faster.”
Before she could say anything, Samuel had already bent over and bit the other end of the bread chunk in her mouth.
He was so close to her that their nose tips touched as both of them chewed the food.
Their eyes met.
Natalie knew he was trying to mess with her.
