True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 355

Heinz was still very slow; he took a long time to peel one shallot. He recalled watching Grace peel the shallots and it had not seemed very difficult.

Finally, he was done with one. He looked that the others and realized that they each already had four peeled shallots in their hands.

Heinz was slightly stunned. He exclaimed in surprise, "You guys have peeled so many already?"

Lester glanced at him and nodded. They didn't have the nerve to do it too fast because they all noticed that the president's movement was really slow.

Therefore, without speaking, they all agreed to match his slow speed.

But even so, they had peeled several shallots whereas the president was barely done with one.

Heinz looked at his silent company. The way they were staring back at him made him feel like a fool.

He was at a loss and asked, "How can you guys be so fast? Why am I so slow?"

Lester smiled awkwardly and answered, "President, don't worry. We've all done some house chores before. This is your first time doing it. It's normal that you'll be a little slower."

"So, you've done housework before?" Heinz looked at Lester and asked again in surprise.

Lester nodded and said, "Yes, I have also done some house chores before."

"Alex, you too?" Heinz looked at Alex and repeated his question.

Alex nodded and replied, "Yes, President. I've been helping my mother to cook since I was five."

Heinz was completely stunned.

The next second, he looked at the butler.

The butler looked at him with pity in his eyes. He looked at Heinz and said, "President, you were born with a silver spoon, so you didn't need to do housework. It's alright since there were people who took care of you at home. However, we are not as blessed as you are, we have suffered a lot."

"Even if there's no suffering, I still want to learn. I'm going to learn now," said Heinz. Picking up the second shallot, he continued, "You guys don't have to do it anymore. I'll do it myself."

"But, Sir." the butler looked at Heinz and asked in surprise, "President, what are you going to do with so many shallots? We can't eat them all."

"I'm learning how to peel them," Heinz said grumpily. "Can't I?"

The butler shook his head and said, "Yes, you can. It's just that there's no need to put yourself in such a situation. I don't think it's necessary for you to do this. Besides, you're not peeling the shallot either."

"If I'm not peeling it, then what was I doing?" Heinz raised his eyes to look at him.

"You're embroidering. It's easy to peel the spring onion. But it took you so long to even peel one," the butler said straightforwardly. He looked at Heinz and asked, "Why do you have to do that?"

Heinz frowned and didn't say anything for a long time.

The butler continued, "You were not born to do such a chore, and you won't find pleasure in doing these things. Therefore, it's better if you use your time to make money. Please stop doing this."

Heinz looked at the three of them in shock.

Lester also nodded in agreement and said, "President, you really don't have to do this. You're a man of many talents, it would be a waste of your time."

Heinz was stunned and asked, "How can you say that I'm wasting my time by doing this?"

He did this so that he could impress Grace. Everyone wanted to be able to do everything, be it work or family chores. Heinz wanted to be good at everything too.

He realized that family chores were his weakness. It was not wrong for him to practice it.

"President, you are a person who makes a fortune. You should spend your time working in the company. Why do you have to come here and make yourself suffer?" The butler asked again.

Heinz looked at them and ignored their questions. He said, "Stop trying to dissuade me. Do you know how to remove shrimp veins?"

"Shrimp veins?" Lester asked in surprise, "Why are you asking this?"

"Yeah, President, why are you asking this?" The butler echoed in confusion.

"Leave!" Annoyed, Heinz pointed at the door and ordered, "All of you go out now and stop disturbing me."
