162 A Loving Lunchbox
The next morning, Isabella, who was in a good mood, went into the kitchen to make a box of lunch for Lukas.
Although the relationship between Lukas and her was just at the very beginning, she tried to be a devoted lover.
She dreamed to be like that for a long time.
After breakfast, William wrapped the lunch box in a beautiful package before handing it to Isabella. Charlie asked Isabella curiously, âAre you taking lunch to school?â
âYes.â She answered.
Charlie said to her, âI heard that you woke up early in the morning. Donât bother yourself. If you want to eat anything, just tell the head chef in advance. Iâll get someone to send it to you in the afternoon.â
Isabella told Charlie that box lunch was also delicious.â
Then she smiled and asked Joseph, âDo you want to give it a try? Thereâs some left in the kitchen.â
Joseph was leisurely having breakfast at that time. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and wondered, âLeft?â
.....
He was unhappy.
Isabella stood up and said, âWell, whatever. I should leave now Grandpa!â
Charlie said, âOk. Have a good day.â
After Isabella went out, the dining hall was silent.
William served a plate of fried rice with ham and asked Charlie and Joseph, âHow about trying this?â
âWeâre almost done. Why are you still cooking?â
Charlie took a few bites and he immediately praised, âThatâs quite special. William, do you know who made it? Do and serve me a small bowl.â
William did as he told and then asked Joseph, âMr. Joseph, How does it taste?â
Joseph scooped up a few spoons and commented, âNot bad. Did the new chef make it? If so, let him stay.â
William was laughing.
He smiled and said, âThis is the box lunch that Miss Isabella left in the kitchen. To be honest, it tastes very good. Although the ingredient is relatively simple, it has a different flavor.â
Charlie was surprised and asked, âDid she make it? Wow, thatâs so amazing! Lots of girls are spoiled today and few of them can make a meal. Isabella is so amazing!â
Joseph was deep in thought and he didnât say anything but eat the rest of it.
After breakfast, Charlie took a walk in the garden. The maid helped Joseph put on her coat and prepared to go out.
Just then, William said, âMr. Joseph, please wait for a second!â Joseph adjusted his tie as he turned around and asked, âWilliam, whatâs up?â
William smiled and said, âPlease allow me to ask you a question. Do you know the meaning of a lady making a box lunch for a man?â
Joseph shrugged coolly and said, âI donât know. It was just a cold, left meal.â
William said, âIt is said that when a young girl was too shy to confess her feeling to a man she loved, she would make some beautiful food. First, she wanted to show him the potential of a good wife. Second, she hoped that the man would miss her when eating.â
Joseph looked at William in surprise. âDo you mean Isabella showed her feeling to me in the morning?â
William didnât comment and continued to smile, âAnyway, she would not give you the meal just because he hates you.â
Isabella did not act in the morning, but she still called Lukas after class and found him in the lounge in the afternoon.
Lukas made his agent go away and then he asked Isabella as gently as ever. âWhatâs up?â
âYou havenât had lunch, have you?â
When Isabella thought of last nightâs kiss, she blushed a little and said, âI brought the meal this morning. Can I eat with you?â
Lukas looked at her and paused. âMy pleasure.â
When the beautiful and delicious lunchbox was opened, Isabella was deeply impressed by her cooking.
Lukas said and praised her, âI heard that youâre good at cooking. Itâs delicious.â
Isabella was elated and said, âI guess itâs the cooking talent that I inherited from my father. I still remember when I was young, the most unforgettable thing was to squat at the kitchen door and wait for his dishes.â
âWell...â
âYou will be a good wife in the future.â Lukas looked at her bright face and his eyes were full of tenderness.
Isabella immediately blushed when she said, âI hope so. There are still many aspects that Iâm not familiar with.â
Lukas put down the spoon and said solemnly, âIâm sorry. Last night, actually I...â
âNever mind.â
Isabella held the corner of her dress and said nervously, âIâm ok. I just bumped into the butt with the thickest layer of fat. Youâve apologized, but I called you and seemed to have disappointed you a lot.â
âNo, itâs just...â
âWhat?â Isabella stared at Lukas expectantly with her clear eyes.
Lukas stared fixedly at the blush and happy smile on her face. The light in his eyes suddenly dimmed and he lowered his head and said, âI have a lot of scenes in the afternoon, so I have to memorize the lines, so I...â
âOh! I got it!â
Isabella raised a smile and quickly packed her things. âIf you want to eat anything tomorrow, call me!â
Before Lukas left, Isabella warned him, âLukas, just take it easy. I wonât make trouble for you. Take your time. I donât want to make you stressed.â
âOk. Be careful on your way back,â Lukas said with a gentle smile.
âAlright!â
With the door closed, Lukas lowered his head and felt gloomy.
Isabella thought that Lukas was so cute when he was shy.
As Isabella walked out of the lounge, her eyes were full of delight. She thought to herself that Lukas was also very shy about what happened last night and he didnât even dare to look at her. What should she do now? Well, she just needed to recover her energy to be ready for Lukas anytime!â
Just then, her cellphone rang.
Isabella was then at the top of her happiness when she heard the phone call. She shivered and picked up the phone. âHello, Mr. Joseph.â
âIâll give you five minutes. Come to the little forest where you went last time.â
âWhat? Last time?â
Joseph hung up the phone suddenly.
Isabella looked at the phone and wondered why he hung up the phone and what he wanted to talk to her.
Then, she thought of the little forest where she went last time.
Isabella was shocked and afraid that Joseph came to school again.
Joseph sat in the stone chair under the shade of the tree, smoking a cigar in boredom. From afar, he saw Isabella trotting over with a lunchbox, and he was kind of delighted.
Joseph thought that Isabella must take the lunch for him.
Isabella arrived.
She held his knees and panted when looked at her watch and said happily, âIt only took me five minutes here!â
Then, she glanced at Joseph.
He was dressed in a black suit and looked extremely cool. He was quite handsome with a cigar in his hand and crossing his legs.
Well, he looked not bad.
Although he was still cool and arrogant, Isabella was in a good mood, and then she found everything nice.
âWhy are you looking for me?â Isabella asked him.
