Chapter 1163 Stealing The Food Even then, Vinson tried to help as best as he could.

However, he ended up getting in the way most of the time.

Luckily, Arielle was a good cook and whipped out a meal in no time.

After lunch, she could not resist asking, “Are you really not going to the office today?”

“Mmm-hmm.” Vinson nodded. “I have delegated my work to Rayson. Anything that he can’t handle can wait. At most, I’ll deal with it from home.”

At that moment, Arielle could not help but pity Rayson.

“There’s really no need for you to stay with me. All we did was… that. It’s not like I’m pregnant and about to give birth.”

The instant she finished, she remembered that they did not use protection the night before.

Should I get the morning-after pill?

Seemingly reading her thoughts, Vinson spoke. “Those are bad for your body. If you’re pregnant, we’ll hold our wedding at once. As for my mom, I’ll deal with her. You don’t have to worry about it.”

After a long silence, Arielle suddenly suggested, “Ever since I came back from Maxwell University, I haven’t gone to see your mom. Since you’re on leave today, shall we visit her together?”

Even though she also wanted the wedding to be held earlier, she did not want to do it without the blessings of their elders.

“All right.” Vinson nodded as his eyes crinkled from a smile.

“In that case, I’ll do the dishes first. After that, we can go to the mall and get her a present.”

When she was about to get up, he stopped her by pressing down on her shoulders.

“You should sit. I’ll take care of them.”

“Will you be fine?”

Vinson smiled wryly. “I may not have the talent to cook, but washing dishes isn’t going to be a problem.

Besides, we have a dishwasher. Don’t worry about me.”

“All right then.” Arielle nodded before sitting back down.

A few minutes later, the sound of plates crashing onto the ground rang out from the kitchen.

With her lips twitching, Arielle decided to go in and help.

When it came to household chores, Vinson was indeed terrible at them.

Nonetheless, it was not his fault, as someone with his background had never had to wash dishes by himself in his entire life.

Meanwhile, at the Nightshire residence, Susanne was playing cards with a group of wealthy wives.

Gossips were an inherent part of such events.

One of them asked, “Did you hear about Maureen’s Kitchen?”

Susanne was stunned as she recalled that Arielle owned the restaurant.

Could it be that something happened to the restaurant?

Nevertheless, she feigned ignorance and listened as another of her friends asked, “I haven’t heard of it.

Why?”

That lady who brought up the topic explained, “How can you not know? It has been the top trending topic since yesterday. That restaurant is wildly popular now, and I heard it’s especially good. When I sent my housekeeper there yesterday, he ended up waiting in line for four hours just for a takeout of two dishes. Do you know what happened after that?”

“What?” Susanne blurted out.

Gritting her teeth, that lady took a while to calm down before she explained, “He ate some without my knowledge!”

“Huh?” Susanne and the others were stunned.

The help that they engaged were not just ordinary housekeepers. They were hired from the employment agency and were professionally trained. Taking into consideration that they were well paid, there was no need for them to steal food at all.

Thus, the ladies had never heard of such an incident before.
