One Night Stand With That Beggar

After a night of hard work, Naomi felt extremely tired.

She went back to her room and rested.

The next morning, while she was still asleep, she heard a rustling sound from outside. Naomi turned her body over and did not want to pay any attention to the sound.

However, the sound did not stop. She really could not ignore it, therefore she got up and opened the door.

She thought that it was Culver, therefore she did not hold back.

“What are you doing? It’s early in the morning!”

Just as she finished speaking, she saw Loraine standing there.

“I’m sorry, Miss George. Did I disturb you?”

Loraine was a pretty good person. Naomi was not someone who would be rude to a person older than her.

Therefore, her anger dissipated.

“Loraine, it’s you! What’s wrong?”

Loraine looked at Naomi again and asked, “Are you awake? Can I trouble you to teach me how to make the noodles from last night?”

Naomi froze for a moment before saying, “Actually, it’s very simple. It’s a common way of cooking! First, fry the ingredients, then add some water and boil the noodles. Then, season them!”

Loraine could not believe her words. She asked, “There’s no secret recipe?”

“No, there isn’t.” Naomi shook her head and said, “My mother said that the most important recipe is attentiveness. There is no secret recipe!”

Loraine was even more upset, she said, “Then, why didn’t Young Master Culver eat the bowl of noodles I made this morning?”

“You cooked for him this morning?”

“Yes!” Loraine nodded and added, “Young Master Culver starved himself for almost the whole day yesterday. I thought he didn’t have enough food last night, therefore I woke up early in the morning and made some for him, but he still doesn’t like the dish!”

Naomi had a rough idea of the situation. Loraine was considered an elder member of the Olsen family.

Loraine had worked for Marilyn in the Olsen family since she was young. She had watched Culver grow up, therefore, she did not only treat Culver as an ordinary employer, but she also had familial feelings for him.

Naomi felt that Loraine was overly fond of Culver, but she could not say anything when she saw how anxious Loraine was.

“Maybe he isn’t hungry!”

“No, it’s impossible. Young Master Culver woke up very early this morning. He must be hungry.”

Naomi was in deep contemplation when Culver walked out to the corridor.

When he saw Naomi, he shot her a quick glance and walked past her door.

Loraine said helplessly, “This is the eighth time he has walked past here today!

Naomi felt exasperated.

“You must have seen things wrong. He must be walking back and forth like this to digest his food.”

The moment she finished speaking, they heard a rumbling sound. Naomi and Loraine were both stunned.

That sound had come from Culver’s direction. It seemed that his stomach had growled.

Loraine was even more anxious as she asked Naomi, “Miss George, I know that some secret recipes can’t be shared to other people, but look! What do you want me to do? I’ll help you, as long as you cook for Young Master Culver!”

Culver frowned and said, “Loraine, what are you talking about? She’s my girlfriend. If I want to eat, of course she would cook for me!”

After that, he smiled at Naomi.

“Isn’t that right?”

He was setting up another trap!

Naomi closed her eyes and said, “Oh, that’s right!”

However, she was reluctant to become Culver’s maid. She turned to Loraine and said, “There really is no secret recipe. Come with me, I’ll teach you.”

“Really? That’s great!” Loraine hurriedly followed behind her.

Naomi made the simple dish of noodles as she had done previously. Loraine looked at Naomi carefully, as if she was worried that she would miss something.

It was not until she was done cooking that Loraine looked at her in shock.

“Is there really no secret recipe?”

“It’s true! Why would I lie to you? These are the noodles that I made yesterday. Take it and give it to Culver!”

Loraine nodded and hurriedly brought the bowl of noodles to Culver.

Naomi did not want to eat noodles. She slept late last night, and she felt very hungry.

Then, she made seafood risotto for herself using the high quality ingredients that Loraine had bought. Initially, the dish should be cooked slowly over the pan so that the dish would be flavorful.

However, because she was too hungry, she had to use the pressure cooker to cook it.

However, it still tasted delicious!

Naomi filled her bowl with risotto and placed it on the table.

Culver had already finished eating his noodles and was about to go out. However, when he saw Naomi’s food, he sat down again.

“Give me a bowl too.”

Loraine immediately felt as though she had faced a formidable enemy.

“Young Master Culver, you don’t like the smell of Italian dishes, right?”

Culver blinked and asked, “Really?”

“It’s true! You’ve been disgusted with the taste of such dishes since you were a child.”

The expression on Culver’s face became more and more distant. Loraine immediately kept quiet.

“Do you really want to eat the risotto?”

Culver nodded.

Loraine then looked awkwardly at Naomi and said, “Your…”

“No!” Naomi said awkwardly. She was in a hurry to eat, therefore she had not cooked much.

Culver looked at Naomi’s bowl, and Naomi quickly covered it.

“I’m really hungry!”

After that, she immediately took a big mouthful of the risotto with a spoon. She looked like she was marking her food as her own.

That way, her food would not be taken away by others, right?

Unexpectedly, the spoon in her hand was taken away by someone in the next second.

Culver took a huge bite of it without hesitation, saying, “It’s not bad!”

Naomi was suprised.

What an annoying man!

Not only was Naomi shocked, but Loraine was too.

Loraine looked at Culver’s appearance, and she could not help but cry out.

She could not help but cry out, “Young Master Culver, you’ve suffered a lot! I didn’t know how much you’ve suffered since you moved out of the house. I have to tell Mrs. Olsen about this. Young Master Culver, I think it’s better if you move back!”

Culver ignored her and left her to cry.

After he finished eating, he said lightly, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me!”

After that, he stood up and left.

Of course, he did not forget to tell Naomi.

“This is good. Cook it again tonight.”

Naomi was speechless.

…

Loraine talked to Naomi about Culver’s childhood and how much love and care he had received since he was young.

Therefore, it was hard for Loraine to see that Culver had fallen to such a place where he had to sneak a bite of Naomi’s risotto. He used to be a proud prince who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

However, Naomi was in no mood to listen to her lamenting.

Then, Loraine let out a sigh.

“Actually, high-class ingredients don’t necessarily mean happiness. Young Master Culver is probably suffering from anorexia because of this!”

Naomi could not help but complain, “You’re the one who said that he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, yet you’re the same one who’s saying that he isn’t happy. So, is he happy or not?”

“He is most likely unhappy!”

“Why?” Naomi asked.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

At that crucial moment, Loraine refused to say anything more.

“I’m going to buy more ingredients. What are the ingredients for the risotto that you made? I’ll prepare them for you.”

Naomi felt helpless. Did Loraine really regard her as a chef?

But…

Since it was the case, why not benefit from it? That way, she could get rid of that freak earlier!
