"Would you please help me with the vegetables, the order for chow mein is increasing" Jasper said stir frying the noodles.
"I hope you are good at cooking?" jasper asked again and Jen nodded as she began to chop the vegetables placed on the cabinet, this was an industrial kitchen and it needed more workers but they aren't much.
"Give me the beef" Jasper said with his arms outstretched and Jen passed the beef to him, when they were done with the first batch, the order next was scrambled eggs and vegetables, Jen was assisting jasper in the kitchen and he was taking things slowly with her, since she was a new recruit she couldn't get the bottles containing ingredients correctly.
"Ahh, what a hectic day?" Jasper complained as he went out of the kitchen with Jen, they were done with the work and it was time to go home, Jen stared outside and it was dark, she sighed as her face turned gloomy again.
"Here" Jasper passed her the chow mein he left for her, she just wanted to try it out.
"Thanks" Jen showed her gratitude as she picked up the chopping stick and started eating, "This is good" Jen complimented as she couldn't get enough of it's taste.
"Here is your wage and also recruits are under our tutelage" Janet said and handed her five silver coins.
"You said two, why five?" Jen asked with eyes full of inquisitiveness. "That's because we made so much sales today and since you're a new recruit, we decided to give you five to increase your interest in this work" Allison explained and Jen nodded.
"But, wait!, you guys own this place?" Jen asked and they nodded simultaneously.
"Yeah, this place was owned by my father, but he passed away and since we have interest in food and also study food science at school, it's best to ensure the business goes on" Jasper explained and Jen nodded slowly, taking everything into her head, these people were so independent and it aspired her to become like them, depending on no one but your skills and your trust in your self.
"Alright, restaurant is closed, let's go home" Janet said picking up her purse and Allison followed.
"Aren't you going home?" Jasper asked and Jen shook her head with a gloomy expression.
"I decided to leave my home because of some reasons I can't explain" Jen explained, she tried hard not to remember valet that made her heart break, the image of him and Fiona kissing popped up in her head and she bit her lips hard.
"You can live with me, I live alone" Jasper said as he offered his hand to her, Jen stared at his outstretched arm before placing her hand in his. Jasper saw a beef at the corner of her lips and he cleaned it with his thumb, Jen lifted her eyes to meet his gaze and she felt her heart skip a beat, she subsconciously hit her head hard, what was wrong with her, she seriously was cursed. She hasn't gotten over valet and now her heart was beating for this cool guy here.
"Done, let's go" jasper said helping her pack her bags and carrying it for her, Jen looked like she wanted to protest but she decided not to talk. They walked thirty kilometers from the restaurant and they stood in front of a house, it wasn't big though but comfortable for two.
Jasper opened the gate, "After you milady" he said chuckling and Jen smiled.
Jen walked into the house and she was surprised the house was kept clean and very beautiful and lastly it was so comfortable and convenient for two.
"Did you like it, come on let me show you to your room" Jasper said and Jen nodded as she followed him slowly to a room painted with her favorite color and she couldn't help but smile inwardly. she loved the look of the room.
Jasper helped her unpack her things as he kept it safe in the cupboard, "You can use the bath now and also I will prepare dinner for both of us, you don't mind joining me in the dining room" Jasper inquired.
"Alright" she replied with a meek voice and jasper left the room, Jen slipped out of her dress as she walked into the bath. The water was so cool that she felt like sleeping due to its coolness, the full moon in the sky made Jen fall in love with it's scenery, this place was a sight to behold. She stared at the full moon with her naked body in the water, after playing with the water for a while, she slid into a light dress as she rubbed her hair with the towel..
"Are you done, let's have dinner" Jasper said over the door and Jen dropped the towel before moving out upon hearing that she would eat, she really loved jasper's food because it tasted great and spicy as well.
"Sit" Japer said as he drew her the chair, he was treating her like she was some kind of royalty which she didn't like, she preferred if he behaved with her like he did to Allison and Janet.
"We have fried bacon, chow mein, omelette with tomatoes and rice and salad, which do you want milady?" Jasper asked as he watched Jen whose eyes was shone with excitement after hearing all the food listed on the table, she felt like having all in her mouth.
"Anything you serve is fine" Jen replied and jasper nodded as he served food on her plate. He knew she had a good appetite so he ensure to serve her much food.
"Dig in" Jasper said handing her the chopsticks and Jen happily collected it, she felt ecstatic when she bit the bacon. Why was jasper's cooking skill great, she was sure his cooking skill would beat the top one cook in the world. He was just so good.
"Mmm" Jen moaned in delight, to her jasper was the best cook ever and she loved eating his foods, like it makes her happy somehow.
Jasper watched her expression and he unconsciously smiled to himself, 'I am glad you like it' jasper thought and not long, she mummured, "I love it so much, could you please serve me some more".
"Sure" jasper beamed as he filled her plates with salads and rice since it was the only food left.
His gaze was fixed on her and he realized the lady in his home was so pretty..He laughed at her every expression as this woman was so funny.
