Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 196

It seemed like everything was progressing smoothly

Chapter 196 

After reviewing the talent show situation, Sheena called Heidi

I’ve arranged for them to clean the floors. Erin was quite arrogant, even cursing at you. So, I locked them back in the basement. Is that okay?Heidi asked

No problem. Since they’re servants, treat them according to the standards. If they don’t listen, punish them as needed. But remember to keep an eye on those male servants at the Freeman mansion. They’re not allowed to have ill intentions!Sheena instructed firmly

Yes, Ms. Sheena! You can rest assured that I’ll handle it well” 

While Heidi continued assuring her, Sheena suddenly smelled a burning odor

It seemed to be coming from downstairs

Sheena hurriedly hung up and rushed downstairs, finding the kitchen filled with smoke. Elijah was trying to fan away the smoke, coughing from the irritation

Sheena was speechless and exclaimed, I asked you to prepare dinner, not burn the house down!” 

Covering her nose and mouth, Sheena entered the kitchen, turned off the stove, and switched on the ventilation fans

After a while, the choking smell finally dissipated. Sheena pointed to the pot, now burnt to a charcoallike black, and asked, What were you making?” 

Elijah replied, Braised beef.” 

Sheena glanced at it again. It was simply an eyesore

What the hell happened? It’s burnt beyond recognition! No recipe can save your cooking skills. How bad are you at this?” 

Elijah feigned innocence. I just followed the recipe. It said to simmer on low heat for an hour and a half. I thought it was too slow and turned up the heat to speed things up, but” 

But you burnt it instead?” 

Elijah remained silent

Sheena was exasperated, sighed, and continued, Are you planning to serve me this for dinner

I also prepared a side dish.” 

Where is it?” 

Elijah led her to the dining table. Although the side dish looked plain, the color seemed normal, so it was probably edible

Sheena gave in and decided to make do with this meal

Seeing her willingness to try, Elijah pulled out a chair and fetched a plate and utensils from the kitchen

Sheena eyed his movements suspiciously

Just an hour ago, he felt humiliated and awkward about doing chores. Yet, he seemed to have adapted to it so quickly. Moreover, he even stood quietly on the side after doing all that, acting unusually obedient
