Jordan said to Chloe, "Chloe, I'll teach you the first chord. It might be difficult, but it's very special."
Chloe looked at Jordan with a firm gaze in her eyes. "I'm not worried that it might be difficult."
Jordan pressed his right hand on the keys to demonstrate, and the sound of a Fmaj7 chord rang.
Jordan did not teach her the F chord but the Fmaj7 chord, which was much more complicated.
In Jordan's opinion, the F chord was an orthodox chord that was akin to his legitimate children that Hailey had given birth to or Victoria would be giving birth to.
On the other hand, the Fmaj7 chord had an extra E (mi), making its color firmer and more special.
Jordan felt that it was the color that belonged to Chloe.
Since Chloe was still too young to play the notes, F, A, C, and E simultaneously, Jordan told her to play them separately.
The four notes F, A, C, and E were repeatedly played over and over again.
Half an hour passed.
Seated by the dining table, Jordan looked at the spread of food in front of him. He said bluntly, "Miss Howard, you made only two dishes after such a long time of cooking?"
There were only two plates of vegetables on the table and a small soup pot.
Lauren said with great embarrassment, "I... I'm not very good at cooking."
Jordan pointed to the young maid outside the house and asked, "What about her?"
Lauren said, "She doesn't know how to cook either. She mainly helps me look after Chloe when I'm tired. I usually keep to a vegetarian diet, and I'm not that picky about food."
Jordan shook his head and said, "I can't let my daughter go hungry. I'll go cook for Chloe!"
When he came to the kitchen, he opened the refrigerator and found very few food ingredients in it. Hence, he called Pablo and instructed him to send some over.
Jordan decided to make some meatballs. He added seasonings to minced meat and stirred it well.
He then wrapped the meat in cling wrap and allowed it to marinate for a while.
He then added some sweet potato flour, kneaded the meat into balls, and blanched them in the pot.
"Is it delicious, Chloe?"
Jordan watched as Chloe took large mouthfuls of meatballs with a great sense of satisfaction.
"Yes, yes! Daddy, you cook so much better than Mommy!
I want you to cook for me in the future!"
Over the moon, Chloe did a happy dance.
Jordan not only made some meatballs for her, but he also
made some crab cakes and gnocchi.
Looking at the dishes on the table, which were exuding a heavenly aroma, Lauren felt really blissful, and she thought, 'This place is finally looking like home. My family is finally... complete... Unfortunately, he isn't my husband.'
Jordan saw Lauren's complicated expression and said, "Miss Howard, help yourself to the food too."
Lauren actually wanted to taste the food Jordan made because she wanted to know what his culinary skills were like.
