Chapter 318 Willingly Become Her Puppet

“Can you cook?” Amelie quickly followed Leo into the kitchen.

When she was in the Alston Residence, she had never seen him enter the kitchen, so she was very doubtful about his cooking skills.

Leo had already taken off his coat, and he was lowering his head as he undid the buttons on his sleeves. His slender fingers leisurely rolled his sleeves upward, exposing his muscular arms.

“I can learn,” he declared indifferently as he looked up at her. “You can teach me.”

He said it like it was the most natural thing in the world, so Amelie almost laughed out loud.

Leo’s gaze was insistent, and there was a sense of bewitchment in it as well. Amelie didn’t dare meet his gaze as she sighed in exasperation. “Just let me do it.”

Instead of teaching him, it would be far quicker for her to do the cooking.

With that, she took the apron to put it on. Before she could wear it, however, the man snatched the apron and put it on himself.

“Bria wants to eat the food I made,” he said matter-of-factly.

Amelie was speechless.

“I heard you’re very nice to Bria, and you won’t decline anything she asked with good reason. Therefore, it should be a reasonable request if she wants to eat what her father made.”

Amelie was about to say something when Bria’s voice sounded, saying, “Dada, I want to eat the beef stew! Don’t forget the potatoes! Oh, and I want a poke bowl too, the sort with chopped carrots, tomatoes, shrimp, beans, and sausages!”

Bria’s words perfectly supported Leo’s, and Amelie could only compromise.

Leo nodded in response, then opened the fridge after tying the apron around him. He skillfully retrieved all the ingredients Bria listed, then placed them on the counter.

“You have to wash the beef and cut it into chunks.” Bria continued her remote commands.

She knew that Leo didn’t know how to cook, so after searching her memories, she provided him with Steven’s easiest recipes.

Leo swiftly unwrapped the beef, then placed it under running water to wash it.
