Pretend Not Care

It was getting dark, Raline invited Damian to cook hotpot in the Villa's garden. They both look very happy working together to cook hotpot. Damian got the job of cutting vegetables, meat, and seafood. Meanwhile, Raline prepares the spices for the hot pot sauce and also the spices for grilling the meat.

A male servant helped them to light the fire. Now the fire is ready. Raline brought a large pot that she took from the kitchen, then put it on hold.

"Wow, this is really cool," said Raline.

"Yes, it's an antique belonging to our lady," said Damian.

"Your lady? Do you mean Kirana?", asked Raline.

"Hush! You can't just say her name, she was a first-class noble" Damian said.

Hearing Damian praise Kirana, Raline even smiled to herself.

"You idiot! That's me! Why should I be polite to myself", said Raline in her heart.

The water in the pot has started to boil. Now it's time to add the ingredients.
