Chapter 11
Magda's POV
Ava looked quite mischievous and not to be trusted one bit. I'm pretty sure she was up to no good before I walked in.
I went ahead to check on the covered meals and uncovered, it looked different from how l had left it - reddish and all messed up!
What did she add to the food? Then I noticed bits of red powdery stuff on the table and it turned out to be chili powder.
I burst into hot laughter as l was able to decode the whole thing. She actually added chili powder to the food? She's one crazy lady.
She doesn't want to cook for her husband and doesn't want anyone to do that for him.
Geez .. I can't believe she did all these. She funny tho. And complicated too. First, she lectured me and now, this!
Wow, she must love her husband very much and that's why she's doing all these to get me on his blacklist.
AVA'S POV
The food tasted normal and I wondered how it turned out to be nice. I remember l added enough chili powder so it's meant to taste spicy hot, right? What happened?
Hold, did she find out I was up to no good while in the kitchen? Oh, bum! I messed up big time! My efforts went down the drain!
Not just that .. I wonder what she must be thinking of me now. Probably thinking l'm bad and all that.
I took my gaze to Andre and he seemed to be enjoying the meal. I sneered. I don't know why .. or maybe l know.. but l felt kinda annoyed that he was enjoying some other woman's food when l'm right here.
"It wouldn't do you any good if you keep staring at me. Yeah, l understand l'm way too handsome for you to take your eyes off of me but you don't have to admire me for so long "Andre simpered and l rolled my eyes with sarcasm.
"Coward! "I muttered. He obviously doesn't know how he looks when he claims to be so handsome. He looks so ugly.
Andre's POV
I really enjoy teasing her cause she's always so revengeful and kinda funny which makes the ride spectacularly sweet.
"You're the ugliest guy l've ever encountered on planet earth! "She bickered at me and I laughed.
"Too bad you are married to the ugliest guy you've ever encountered. In your face! "I smirked, sardonically and she scoffed.
"But just so you know, I ain't the only ugliest person here, you're not an exception either "I added, mockingly and she gasped.
"Hey! Did you just call me ugly? "She grouched, glaring at me.
"Of course. You called me ugly, I called you ugly. That's not a big deal, you don't have to make a mountain out of a molehill "I rasped and scoffed, looking away.
"I'm so outta here! "She yelled and hit her cutlery hard against the table.
She stood up and walked out in annoyance. As she walked away, my whole attention was on her a*s the entire time. It's so curvy and ...
"You do not have to bore holes into her with your eyes. She's your wife, remember? "Magda uttered as she stepped into the dinning area.
"And who warranted you to pry into my family matters? "I queried, rudely and she shuddered.
"I'm so sorry, sir. I'll leave right away then "she bowed, slightly and dashed out, almost immediately.
But I do wish it was that easy tho! But wait .. why am l even thinking about her? I should probably stop spending time with her.
Ava's POV
I fumed as l plonked on the bed .. I still can't believe he called me ugly.
I'm not angry, even an infant could tell that .. or am l?
I sighed and stood up, trailing towards the mirror. I examined my face for a while and scoffed.
I'm not ugly in anyway .. I loosened my hair and let it fall freely on my shoulders. My face lit up with a smile.
I'm the prettiest human ever!
"I never thought you were this stupid. You went as far as checking yourself out in the mirror to ascertain if you were ugly. Well, yes, you are "Andre remarked as he walked in.
"Story for the gods, hubby. I'm so beautiful that l think beautiful is even an understatement. "I replied, ignorantly and smiled, afterwards.
"Whatever! I feel so worn-out. Having a ugly wife is not easy at all "he stated, lowly enough but I heard, anyways.
I crossed my arms and watched him lay on the bed, covering himself up with a duvet.
"Hey! You'd better not try anything stupid "he chipped in and I rolled my eyes. I walked out on him.
He'll wake up to a big shock. That's for sure!
I walked back to the room and ascertained if Andre has gone to sleep .. yes! I went to the mirror and packed my hair in a messy bun. I removed my earrings and kept them in the drawer.
I'm going to meet Magda so she can lecture me on how to prepare meals. Mom never taught me how to cook, or should l say .. I was never ready to learn.
I'd find a silly excuse to tell whenever she called me to assist her in the kitchen. She preferred preparing our meals rather than handing it over to a servant.
Whenever she asked me to go to the market, most times, l will hand over it to a servant to do it instead.
I exited the room, heading for the kitchen. Andre's gonna suffer for calling me ugly!
First, l have to apologize to Magda for trying to ruin her food.
"Magda "I called as I entered the kitchen. She was busy washing the dishes but turned to face me.
"Oh. Hey, ma'am "she said with a smile. Woah! She doesn't look bothered by what I did earlier.
"Umm. I want to ask your for a favor "
"Really? Okay then, go on. I'm all ears "she responded and rinsed the soapsuds off her hands.
"Can you teach me some of your cooking recipes? I'm not a very good cook "I pleaded with my hands clasped.
"Well, Alright. I'll do just that "
"Thank you, Magda "
