Chapter 673
Thaddeus had a look of sheer panic as the chicken nugget slipped from his fingers and plummeted into the bubbling oil of the deep fryer.
Hot oil spattered across the back of his hand and up his arm, the pain snapping him back to reality as his lips parted awkwardly, muttering. “Elvis”
“You’re always talking about that stuff. Are you really that horny?”
Elvis snorted softly, craning his neck to peer into the fryer, “I dunno if Evadne caught a whiff yet, but I sure followed the scent over here. Smells like something’s burning, though.”
That caught Thaddeus off guard, and he suddenly realized that the chicken he’d dropped in earlier was still submerged.
He fumbled for the slotted spoon, but by the time he fished out the nuggets, they’d turned a deep brown.
The corners of Thaddeus‘ eyes drooped in dismay, and he was instantly reminded of the first time Chairman Emeric had tried his cooking, labeling it a string of “failures.”
It was like a curse he couldn’t shake.
“Look, I get it, you’re trying to be sweet, but don’t force yourself into something that’s clearly not your forte. If you scald yourself and end up with blisters, it’s Evadne who’s going to suffer, right?”
Saying this, Elvis shrugged off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and positioned himself next to Thaddeus, nudging him aside with his hip, “Go stand over there and chill. Don’t get in the way.”
Thaddeus‘ eyes widened in surprise, “You’re going to take over?”
“If I leave it to you, my little sis will end up eating charcoal.”
Thaddeus didn’t get upset because Elvis was absolutely right; he’d overestimated his cooking skills.
Elvis washed his hands and expertly lowered the chicken into the fryer, watching the clock and counting the seconds before stirring the oil and soon after, retrieving the perfectly cooked nuggets!
Thaddeus stood by, assisting Elvis and absorbing every move with rapt attention.
“Got it yet?” asked Elvis, not even looking up.
Thaddeus nodded, “Yeah.”
“Your eyes may have got it, but your hands sure didn’t.”
Thaddeus frowned with a rueful smile, “Elvis, sometimes, I need a little encouragement.”
Elvis‘ long lashes fluttered as he glanced at Thaddeus, “Fail a few more times, and you’ll get it right. I’ve botched it up countless times myself before getting it to look half decent. If Evadne didn’t love it so much, who in their right mind would bother with this mess? It’s filthy, it’s a hassle, and you can’t get rid of the smell of oil for days! Sometimes, you shouldn’t spoil her too much. If you let her get her way all the time, she’ll be demanding you cook every day, then what’ll you do?”
Thaddeus‘ eyes glowed softly as he gently smiled, “Doesn’t matter. As long as Evadne’s happy, I’m willing to do anything, no matter how troublesome it is.”
“Pfft, easy for anyone to say,” Elvis responded with feigned disdain, but inside, he felt a warmth spreading.
“Wow! Fried chicken! Smells amazing!”
