Unbeatable Chef Xenon

Chapter 33

"Did you see what happened?" Mr Vlad asked through the phone and the man nodded.

"Yes, I saw everything, boss. The little boy woke up and he left." The man whom he had sent to spy on Xenon replied to him and he sighed.

"What and what did he give to that boy, I'm curious to know. If it's something ordinary then I will conclude that he's just skillful but if that's not the case then something is amiss and I must find out before I hand him over, he might be useful to me too." Mr Vlad said and thought deeply.

"He didn't use anything special aside from some black coffee seeds and very hot water."

"Good, get me some black coffee seeds from the mall immediately. I will try this same method with one of my dying patients and see the results." He said eagerly and the man followed his instructions.

He had been monitoring Xenon since the day he left his house as he was following instructions. A condition had been given to him that he carried out some simple experiments on Xenon to know if the deed would work out or if it was going to be useless to him he was asked to burn him as that's the only way to get rid of him without his powers or anything else interfering.

Doing this was a bit hard, he knew that and it was giving his daughter a tough time to follow as this man practically saved his life but the threats coming from the sets of these particular people were great and ever since then, he knew Xenon was mysterious.

For his life to be sought as if he were a devil, he took it upon himself to find out more about Xenon and decided to be selfish about it.

"Here is it Boss, should I add the water to it?" His right hand Man asked him and he shook his head.

"No, let's go to the hospital," he told him and they both left the mansion.

Felicity couldn't hide the shock that contorted her face when she listened to what her Father said and the mug in his hands. He looked so serious that if this man right here wasn't her father, she could have yelled in anger and called security.

"What are you doing Dad, this is Barbaric." 

"Well, someone did the same barbaric things and saved a dying soul. What harm is there in trying, I'm just trying to learn the special things I never thought would have existed. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Vlad told his daughter who let out an exasperated sigh and she let him enter the ward of one of the patients whose life was almost gone.

Felicity waited outside and tapped her leg impatiently until she felt he was forever, she turned to the man who came with her dad to ask him what had happened.

The door bounces open to reveal a very pissed and irritated Mr Vlad. His jaw twitched in fury and he walked away without saying a word.

"I can't believe this man is trying to compare himself to Xenon!" Felicity huffed and checked on the patient to discover that he was even worse than before.

"Xenon is special, I don't know but trying to do what he's doing is the most ridiculous thing ever.." she sagged and shook her head before retiring to other duties.

"There's something about that boy! I thought I did the same thing he did to that boy you mentioned, why isn't mine working?" 

Vlad flared up in annoyance, he looked and felt so stupid to try and do what he did and he was glad that no one else's was was there except his daughter, or he would have been bashed to nonsense.

"I need his location right away! I need to know a lot about Xenon before handing him over."

"He's at Royal Volt Cuisine right now, should I call him out?" 

"No, I will meet him myself." He uttered and left the hospital for the Restaurant.

His mind was suggesting a lot of Barbaric things to him about Xenon but he wanted to shut it out.

Deep down, he planned to make Xenon own the restaurant he gave to him, watch him closely as he looked through the cameras, and check out for himself if he was using special Ingredients for his meal. But everything dwindled when he was asked to do the formidable to save his life.

No, he's torn between feeding his curiosity to save Xenon for his gain or handing him over to save his ass and his family.

Xenon glared at Natalia when she entered the kitchen proudly and he wondered when she started visiting the restaurant.

"Are you here because of me Xenon?" She asked Xenon who tried so hard not to scoff but to maintain a normal straight face, he couldn't believe that this was the same woman he had fucked senselessly days ago and he badly wished to taunt her with it. He wanted snow and to tell how shameless she had been while he had been drilling her but he would keep the fits of anger to himself.

"Don't be full of yourself Natalia and stop acting like a desperate ex-girlfriend repeating the same question all over and over again.

I thought you were married! aren't you over me too?" 

Xenon asked her and her eyes blinked in shock that she let out a nervous laughter.

"You're so stupid to utter such a silly word Xenon, you know it's the reverse case and no matter how hard you try with your pathetic self, I will never waste my time with you."

She spat out and he smiled which seemed to annoy her.

"What do you want? To bash me as usual or to pass on some information?"

"It's none of your business!" She yelled but she quickly composed herself and faced him.

"I think it should be your business since you're a poker player in every business. The President is present and he demands to eat his favourite in the next hour. He's generous enough to give an hour so don't waste his time, not a speck of bone should be seen on his food or you will spend the rest of your pathetic life in jail.

I bet you know his rules."

Natalia told Xenon whose mouth was now open in shock.

This woman just wanted to kill him.
