Chapter 229
Reborn Before The Divorce
âWhat are you waiting for?â
At this moment, Jesse felt someone using the CEOâs private elevator.
Who?
Could it be Nydia delivering his lunch?
He quickly walked out and arrived at the elevator. After a short while, the elevator door opened, and the Pascall family driver was standing inside.
âVergil, Madam instructed me to bring the lunch.â
When Vergil saw the two bags, his eyes lit up.
âThank you!â He took the two bags from the driver.
Sure enough, Nydia had made him lunch.
No wonder Boss said to wait, it was worth the wait.
He put his lunch on the table and brought the bag belonging to Jesse into the office.
âSir, Madam had Ken bring your lunch.â
Jesseâs face softened a bit. He had been waiting for this!
He noticed that his name was on the lunch bag, written by Nydia.
Why was his name on the bag?
But he didnât think too much about it. He even thought Vergil was very sensible today and left without him having to tell him to.
As he ate the meal prepared by Nydia, he felt happy, especially since it tasted good.
The lunch bag contained enough food for both lunch and dinner, and Nydia had already portioned it out. Jesse ate his lunch and put the dinner portion in the fridge to heat up later.
During the afternoon, Jesse noticed that Vergil was enthusiastic about his work, but when it came to mealtime, Vergilâs eagerness surprised him.
âWhere are you going?â
âTo eat!â Vergil replied as if it were obvious.
âWhy werenât you this enthusiastic about meals before?â
âBecause the food is delicious today.â
If youâre not enthusiastic about good food, thereâs something wrong with your brain!
Besides, this was Nydiaâs cooking, so it was even more reason to be enthusiastic.
âGo ahead.â
Jesse wondered if the cafeteria had changed chefs, but he didnât dwell on it.
It wasnât until the next day that Vergil showed an unusually high level of enthusiasm during mealtime again.
âWhat dish is making you so eager?â
Even though Vergil wondered why the boss was asking him when he should know which dish it was, he still replied, âMissusâs cooking is really delicious! What do you think, Sir?â
âWhatâ¦?â Jesse was about to ask what he was talking about since he didnât know what dish Vergil was referring to. But then he remembered that Chicken Tikka Masala was in his lunch yesterday, and his face immediately darkened. âBesides Chicken Tikka Masala, what else?â
âRoasted tomato risotto, baked potato.â
Jesseâs expression immediately changed, and Vergil sensed it, which scared him. Whatâs going on? Did Nydia prepare different meals for him and his boss?
âMy wife prepared lunch for you?â
âYes, she did.â Vergil realized he might have made a mistake. It seemed like his boss didnât know that his wife had prepared Vergilâs lunch as well.
âGo get it for me!â
âSir, what are you going to do?â
âGo get it!â Jesse snapped at him, scaring Vergil.
âGo get it!â he shouted, scaring Vergil who immediately darted out. When he came back, he was holding a lunch bag carefully.
âBoss, please donât bully them. If thereâs anything wrong with the food, blame it on me.â He had only tasted the lunch dishes during lunchtime and hadnât had a chance to fully enjoy them.
But Jesse still gave him a look and took the lunch bag. It had Vergilâs name on it.
Jesse opened it and found a very ordinary lunch box inside. He felt relieved, but noticed there was no dessert.
âDid you eat the dessert?â he asked.
