Chapter 94 Secretly Solving Teresa's Trouble
They went downstairs together. And then, Hubert went for a morning jog, and Teresa rode her electric bike to the wet market. When she rode on her bike, he reminded her, saying, "Buy more food and bring some to your store. Cook your lunch. Don't eat unhealthy takeout."
"OK."
"If I find you order takeout again, I will let the Waternll City Hotel deliver meals to you every day."
Teresa turned her head back to glare at him and said, "Prodigal man!"
Hearing this, Hubert frowned.
Not far away, a bodyguard was pretending to be a passerby. Hearing her words, he almost burst into laughter.
Teresa was too lazy to talk to the prodigal man, so she started her electric bike and left.
"Ungrateful woman!" Hubert complained when she got far away.
Teresa bought a lot of fresh vegetables and fruits and filled up the refrigerator. Then, she put potatoes, pumpkins, winter melons, and onions in bags and placed them on the ground, keeping the bags open.
Hubert changed his clothes after the morning jog. When he saw the things that she had bought, the corner of his mouth twitched, but he said nothing.
Teresa then started cooking the spaghetti. She had bought some pork offal. She cleaned it and chopped it into mince. Then, she washed two green onions and a small handful of coriander. After preparing the ingredients that she was going to put in the spaghetti, she started to wash the pot.
Hubert glanced at her at the door of the kitchen, then went to the balcony, and sat down on the swing chair. He looked at the plants and swung on the swing chair, feeling wonderfully comfortable. No wonder she sat here for a while every day.
"Ring!" His cell phone rang. And it was Morgan who was calling him.
Hubert answered the call, but he kept his voice low for fear that Teresa would hear in the kitchen.
"Boss, Madam's greedy relatives have found a mediator and are going to negotiate with her."
Morgan had handled most of Teresa's affairs, so he had known it as soon as they had begun to take action.
The look in Hubert's deep eyes was cold when he asked gloomily, "Haven't they given up?"
"Not yet. I did not let them give up right away because it would be too merciful. Let's play with them slowly and let them lose everything they have one by one. This kind of revenge is more ruthless. Now, their work and business have been greatly affected, so they are more anxious than Madam. They have taken the initiative to reconcile with her, but she refused. Now, they have contacted a program group as a mediator and asked them to help mediate the conflict."
Hubert said coldly, "No matter what program group it is, you must solve it. Don't let the bastards disturb my wife now and then."
Morgan giggled, "You sound very angry. Okay, I'll ask people to solve it and make noises about canceling the program if any mediator dares to disturb Madam. Most of those so-called mediators haven't experienced hardships, but they have the nerve to persuade others to let go and forgive. It's much easier said than done."
The knife didn't cut them, so they did not know the pain and could laugh it off. But the people with humanity would never persuade Teresa and her sister to forgive the Heller family after knowing what they had done to them.
"Boss, will your wife pack your breakfast and let you take it to the company today? If yes, please ask her to prepare more. I want to have a try."
"You wish!" Hubert hung up the phone.
Morgan murmured, "...Tsk-tsk, what a possessive man!"
This show was getting increasingly interesting.
Teresa didn't know her husband had helped her solve another problem within just a few minutes.
After she boiled the spaghetti, she put the pork offal and chopped green onion on it and added some vinegar and chili sauce. She did not dare to add too much for fear that she could not bear it. The people in Watenll City barely ate spicy food.
"Mr. Donovan, breakfast is ready!" Teresa walked out of the kitchen with her spaghetti and asked Hubert on the balcony to come in for breakfast.
Hubert came in without a response.
Seeing that his spaghetti was not on the dining table, he silently entered the kitchen and then brought it out.
"If you want more vinegar or chili sauce, you can add them yourself. My sister made the chili sauce herself because she likes spicy food." The two sisters had different preferences. Teresa only added chili sauce when eating spaghetti and barely had spicy food. But her sister was fond of spicy food. She would even eat a few pickled peppers when she had porridge. There were several large flowerpots on her balcony in which she planted pepper.
"I don't like vinegar or chili sauce."
Teresa looked up at him and said with a smile, "You don't like spicy food? If so, I'll cook only spicy food so that you can only watch but dare not to eat."
Hubert was speechless because he had accidentally told her one of his weaknesses.
Seeing him eating with a serious face, Teresa felt very bored. It was easy to waste food when she had meals with him. So, she quickly took out her phone and began to read trending topics while eating breakfast. In this way, she ate extremely fast and soon finished the food on her plate.
Putting away the phone, she picked up the plate and got up, intending to go into the kitchen. Suddenly, she saw Hubert had finished his spaghetti but had not eaten the pork offal, chopped green onion, or coriander. She had thought he had a lot of work to do and worried he would get hungry quickly, so she had deliberately added a lot of pork offal to his spaghetti. Unexpectedly, he had not eaten the pork offal, onion, or coriander!
"Hubert!" Teresa snapped and patted the table. When he turned to look at her, she glanced at his plate and said, "Why don't you eat pork offal?"
Hubert kept silent.
He was the young master of the Donovan family, so he had never eaten pork offal! Only the servants in his family would eat such things.
"It is OK if you don't eat green onion or coriander. Many people don't like the taste of coriander. But you should not waste pork offal. The price of pork is rising, so pork offal is not cheap either."
Hubert remained silent, got up, and walked away with his plate.
Teresa stared after, and after a while, she muttered, "If I had known it earlier, I would have eaten it myself. I was trying to be nice to him, but he is ungrateful."
Hubert dumped everything he didn't eat into the trash can. After washing the dishes, he came out of the kitchen and saw Teresa still sitting at the dining table. He took out his wallet, pulled out a hundred dollars, walked over, and handed the money to her.
"Why are you giving money to me?"
"I wasted the pig offal you bought, so I want to give you some money as compensation. Stop mumbling as if I made a huge mistake. I don't eat pig offal. Don't put it on my plate anymore."
He couldn't stand her such "thoughtfulness".
