Calla did a great job with the cooking, Davis had never smelled anything so good before, he secretly hopes the food tasted as good as it smelled.
"All done." She said with a proud on her face, she was obviously satisfied with what she had prepared.
She dressed the meal in such a palatable manner.
Nina and Lola helped her to carry the food to the dining table. They were all surprised to see such a good-looking meal. Nina was a great chef, but she couldn't prepare Italian sausage and bean stew to look as good as Calla's, they all believed it will taste as good as it looked.
Calla served a large portion of the meal into her plate. The maids looked at her in shock, she simply ignored them and began eating in silence.
She didn't bother to serve any food on her husband's plate, it surprised the maids.
Davis just looked at her with an expressionless face, but he secretly admired the fact that she could eat such amount of food and still maintain her slender body.
She suddenly stopped eating when she felt three pairs of eyes staring at her.
She turned to the maids and asked in a cold voice, "why are you staring at me?."
She didn't like being stared at while eating, it made her feel uncomfortable.
The maids didn't expect such a cold tone from her just by staring at her.
"M-ma'm, y-you haven't served food into the master's plate." Lola stammered, she didn't want to offend her new boss.
Calla looked towards Davis's plate and saw that it was still empty, she hadn't forgotten to serve him, she simply didn't want to.
"Serve your master by yourself."
Both Lola and Nina were stunned by Calla's response, isn't it the wife's duty to serve her husband?, they wondered.
Noticing their reluctance to serve Davis, she spoke in a harsh tone, "if you don't want to get punished, you better do as I say."
They both suddenly felt chilly just by hearing her voice.
Nina immediately rushed to Davis, she was about putting food into his plate when he raised his hand to stop her.
"Let my wife do it." His tone sounded much colder than that of his wife, Calla swallowed hard, she could sense from his voice that he was furious at her.
She wanted to go serve him but she realized if she did so, then he would consider her weak as before, so she sat still.
"If he doesn't want you to serve him, then let him serve himself or better yet, let him not eat all." She maintained eye contact with him as she spoke.
Nina was about putting food into his plate and for the second time she was interrupted because he stood up and left the table, heading upstairs.
Their boss never missed dinner no matter how late it was, he still ate, he considered breakfast and dinner as the most important meal of the day, so he never missed any, that is why they were extremely surprised to see him leave the table without eating. Not to mention it was Italian sausage and bean stew, his favorite.
Calla knew fully well that his pride wouldn't allow him to serve himself or let the maids serve him, so she wasn't surprised to see him leave the table.
She continued eating her dinner happily, this was just the beginning.
The maids couldn't stand the fact that their boss didn't eat dinner, if his mother found out, they would be dead.
Lola looked at Calla with pleading eyes. "Ma'am, please go beg the boss to come eat dinner, he hasn't missed dinner for ten years."
"Yes, ma'am, please go beg the boss to come have dinner." Nina joined Lola in pleading with her on the boss's behalf.
Calla was touched by the maids actions, but she wasn't going to give in to their demands.
She didn't even move an inch from her seat, she just continued eating.
After she was done eating, she asked the maids to clean the dishes, then she slowly walked upstairs.
Her heart started racing as she was about to open the door, she hesitated, then she held the familiar voice, open the door."
She froze, how on earth did he know she was standing at the door?.
She walked in slowly. She was surprised to see him standing by the window and for the first time since she met him again, he wasn't doing anything.
He turned around and was surprised to see her holding a tray of food.
They looked into each other's eyes for about a minute before she finally looked away.
"Nina and Lola said you haven't missed dinner in ten years, so I thought I shouldn't let you break your record today by not eating." Her voice sounded calm but inside her, a war was raging.
Would he accept the food or would his pride have the better side of him?, she wondered as she stood there with the tray in her hands.
He started walking to have with precise steps, and with each step, her heart beat faster, she thought her heart would explode from anticipation.
He finally stopped in front of her and took the tray from her, in a low sexy tone he said, "thank you, darling."
What did he just call her now? She thought she must have mistaken, because why on earth would he call her that?.
"Don't just stand there darling, come and watch your husband eat."
His voice was really hypnotizing, she slowly walked to the table where he was sitting and sat next to him, her mind wanted to refuse but her body her seemed to be under his control instead of hers.
He smiled satisfactorily, he liked this obedient said of her.
He really enjoyed the meal, he hadn't tasted anything so good like this.
"Tomorrow morning I will tell you the rules." He informed her.
She had a puzzle expression on her face, "rules?." She said, wondering what rules he was talking about.
