Chapter 125

What should he do?

How should he handle this situation? He hasn’t learned it before!

Not sure if it was too nervous, he suddenly hiccupped.

He was so scared that he covered his mouth, his eyes wandering around in panic until Jesse’s sharp gaze fell on him, carrying a chilly intent.

Suddenly, he found the courage to say, “Boss, why not have some porridge? Your health is important.” It’s nothing to be ashamed of to eat, and besides, Nydia’s cooking is indeed delicious.

He’ll take the blame for tonight and lose to Nydia’s culinary skills! He may not be happy about it, but it doesn’t matter!

Vergil’s words also gave Jesse a way out. He looked at Nydia, who smartly removed her hand from the wheelchair and said with a smile, “It’s my honor to have Mr. Pascall taste my porridge. Please, Mr. Pascall.”

“…” Nydia, just say it if you want to be hit by a wheelchair!

In the dining room, Jesse looked at the porridge in front of him. It looked good and smelled great. He took a sip, and his taste buds were instantly awakened.

With this sip, he tasted the flavor of eggs, shredded chicken, and a faint herbal flavor. The blend of all these flavors made it taste delicious, bringing out the fragrance of the rice and the chicken.

Vergil couldn’t help but salivate just by watching.

“Vergil, would you like a bowl?” Nydia asked.

Vergil wanted to try it but hesitated. After all, he had argued with Nydia before, and it seemed like drinking her porridge would be quite humiliating. But it looked so delicious. He was about to speak when…

“We’re done here. You can go back first,” Jesse said.

Vergil was stunned.

Boss, did you see me drooling? Are you so cruel as to make me leave?

“Okay, Boss. I’ll go now.” Even though he was reluctant, he turned and left.

Nydia smiled quietly with her head down.

She didn’t expect Jesse to not let Vergil have the porridge, but she was still happy to see that Jesse liked her cooking.

After finishing a bowl, Jesse wanted to have another, but Nydia took away the bowl. “You shouldn’t burden your stomach too much at night,” she said.

“…” I suspect you did it on purpose.

“I have something important to talk to you about. We can do it in the study or in the bedroom, whichever you prefer.”

When Jesse heard the second half of her sentence, he couldn’t help but cover his forehead with his hand.

This woman always finds an opportunity to tease him.

Is she testing his willpower or trying to embarrass him?

His five-year experience with Nydia tells him that she doesn’t love him!

“The study.” He said calmly.

Nydia put the bowl away and brought out the box that she found today when she went to the Wagner Chateau. “I accidentally found a note left by my father, and then I found this box.”

She didn’t take out the bank card and the other letter, only the one that was tucked in the box.

“I suspect that my parents’ death was not just an accident. Here are the ledger, notebook, and a USB drive. I haven’t checked the USB drive yet,” Nydia said.

Jesse’s eyes widened with surprise. He didn’t expect Nydia to give him these things right away.

“Aren’t you afraid that I might have a hand in this too?” Jesse raised an eyebrow mockingly.
