Her dishes might look plain, but they're super scrummy.
Romeo took a bite then his eyes lit up. He didn't expect Arabella's cooking to be such a hit.
"Yum," Romeo complimented, "Is this your new party trick? Cooking?"
"Nope."
Arabella hadn't exactly earned any Michelin stars, but she had a grandpa who used to be a big-shot banquet chef, and he passed on all his tricks to her.
He taught her so she could whip up something nice for him whenever she had free time. Back then, she worked so hard to learn that she almost sliced her hand off. Just thinking about it made her tired.
"I guess you've been roughing it, eating at my place."
Arabella: ??
"Is the food cooked by the chefs at my place hard to swallow?"
Arabella realized what he was getting at: "No, they do a great job too."
"But not as great as you." Romeo decided to dock their pay and get them to up their game.
Did they really deserve a ten grand paycheck every month? They can't even hold a candle to Arabella!
Arabella had no idea what he was thinking and served him more food. "Eat up if you like it and I'll cook for you again in the future."
Hearing that, Romeo paused, his eyes softening.
Arabella mentioned "the future" again and even talked about cooking for him.
