Mouth on fire
Naina placed the suspicious bottle on the top shelf ' She will suffer ' she thought inwardly.
After taking her bath in another bedroom she took big steps downstairs in a hurry. She was extremely hungry, because she slept on a empty stomach.
' Today i will meet my family for sure and James. I have to figure out their ridicule ' Janet decided inwardly. Janet's heart fluttered at the thought of seeing James Clinton again.
Jane strolled into the kitchen, all eyes were fixed on her. They whispered softly ' When did she start cooking '
' she's probably here for some milk '
' Did young madam, lost her way '
Naina was the only one brave enough to talk to her " Madam please your room is upstairs , this is the kitchen. " Naina spoke mockingly.
The others burst into laughter then stopped abruptly when they felt her burning gaze. They really didn't not like Yeimy.
Janet shrugged her shoulders and said coldly " There is always time for change " .
She pushed Naina from her way and started to rinse the vegetables.
She called the head maid Sofia . " Please what is Billie's favorite dish "
Sofia smiled charmingly . She felt touched by the young madam gesture " She has many . I will tell you "
Sofia told and explained everything detaily.
She's was amazed at how quickly, Janet grasped all these . ' After all she is a certified forensic anthropologist ' Sofia thought inwardly.
Naina watched this in disdain. Her mouth pouted , she held the glass in a tight grip almost broking it into pieces with her bare hands.
An idea popped into Janet's crazy mind " Please teach me how to make Henry's favorite dish "she asked politely with an evil intention.
Janet had noticed pepper at the top of the kitchen drawers and wanted to put it into use .
Janet had remembered keenly, that three years ago when an incident had left Henry and her in an abandoned hut . Janet lovingly took her time to cook a descent meal . He spat it out at the first taste and said it was disgusting. When she had it , she felt nothing wrong it wasn't salty or spicy nor blend .
She clenched her fist at the memory ' I will teach him what a disgusting meal taste like. " She muttered underneath her breathe.
When aunty Sofia was not looking she added salt and the pepper to the steak.
The steak looked appetizing but tasted awful compared to the others she made .
Janet smirked devilishly. She wittedly seperated the steaks.
" Let me taste the steak " aunty Sofia spoke as she advanced forward. Aunty Sofia, reached för the special steak.
" No no , " Janet skillfully took a steak which was cooked skillfully and placed on a saucer.
" Mmm " she mumbled savouring the taste , it was rightly spiced and cooked perfectly. If it stayed for any longer it will have burnt
Sofia , praised Janet a lot and left to taste the other maids. They all praised Janet and begged for more .
Janet was slightly happy that it tasted good. It was her very first time cooking steak , if not of aunty Sofia she would have messed up big time. " Is all thanks to you auntie "
Aunty Sofia gave her a side hug " You are all grown up now "
She specifically placed the spoilt steak on a special plate ." This is for Young Master , you guys can have the rest "
Janet kept her own seperatedly and took big steps upstairs to get Billie ready
The maids took a steak each and left praising Janet's cooking.
However, Naina who was left behind felt very unsatisfied . The corners of her mouth twitch into a smirk.
She took the steak from Henry's plate and replaced it with another. As observant as she was she noticed Janet spent much time on this particular steak. She replaced it immediately " I will eat this special steak " she laughed evil fully .
*****
On the dining table.
The steaks where served and several other dishes for the little one .
" Wow , mom . This is very delicious " Billie sprang up her feet and gave Jane a kissed .
" Thanks sweetie "she replied covering the little one face with kisses .
Janet's full focus was on the handsome fellow who quietly ate his meal without no complains .
' Why is he's so indifferent ' she thought helplessly.
" How is the steak ? . I prepared it myself " she asked teasingly.' His eyes should have been red but his blue eyes were clearer than ever.' she cursed inwardly.
Henry found the meal almost as good as his mom's. He savoured the taste , appreciated each bite . Yet , he could not praised Janet infront of others . He shrugged nonchalantly " It's ok ". Afore he indulge into eating again .
'His mouth should be burning from the pepper i prayed on it . Or the too much salt. Is he pretending to please me ' Janet's heart melted .
' Did he really loved his wife so much that he is willing to endure the hotness of the pepper and saltiness. Probably him and i were enemies in our last life , that's why he hated my guts '
She quickly place a jug of fresh milk and filled a glass of it ." Have it " she ordered with an innocent sweet smile .
He smiled faintly " Thanks ".
" Hot, my mouth is on fire. Henry help me " Naina cried running from the kitchen.
Her eyes were all red and tongue sore as if bitten by a swarm of bees.
