Chapter 16 You Are The Best
Ethan, in the driver's seat, kept an eye on Lilly's situation. Her emotions were all written on her face. Sometimes she bit her lips in anger, and sometimes she lowered her eyes in sadness. He felt uncomfortable and turned on the music in the car with some irritability.
He always listened to the music channel, and at this time, the music channel was playing, which happened to be one of Lilly's favorite songs.
The dance music was light and soft, and the singer's voice was gentle and affectionate. Every word of the lyrics taught people not to be demanding and to learn to let things take their course.
He saw her lips loosen, and his heart also relaxed. Looking at the pink lips, he seemed to feel her sweet breath still lingering on his lips, and his cold and hard facial features gradually became soft and peaceful. Lilly was immersed in the music, and her mood calmed down little by little.
After his car turned into, mension, Lilly suddenly thought of something, sat up straight, grabbed the seat belt, and said, "Then let me ask you a question, are you and Jessica engaged?"
His face turned cold, and he curled his thin lips sarcastically, "What? Do you mind?"
"No, no." Lilly waved her hand quickly to distance herself from them. Just kidding, she didn't want to get involved with them again after suffering a loss before. She even thought that if she saw Jessica again, she must explain it to her clearly and not let her misunderstand.
After all, Johnson's Enterprise is her grandmother's hard work, and she must protect it no matter what.
He seemed to know what she was thinking and glanced at her coldly, "Since you have blocked it this time, it is impossible to get away with it again. Miss Johnson, you will understand this truth, right?"
Lilly frowned slightly. What does he mean? Is it that after blocking it this time, there will be a second and third time...does she have to keep blocking it? Is it going to end...
"I will add this condition to the contract as a supplementary agreement."
"What supplementary agreement?!" Lilly was alerted and suddenly remembered that the contract mentioned that if there were any special circumstances, the conditions proposed by Party A would be changed or added as appropriate, and Party B must cooperate and cannot refuse.
And she was the tragic Party B...
At that time, his condition of being responsible for Ziyan's meals attracted all her attention. She didn't look at the other terms too carefully, nor did she care too much.
He saw that she gradually showed an expression of enlightenment, knowing that she had recalled the terms of the contract, and continued, "Before I propose to terminate the agreement, you need to cooperate with me and play every scene in front of Jessica."
"No, no!" Lilly refused flatly. How could such a thing be played often? It might cause problems. What's more, she had just suppressed her feelings for him. What if they rekindled again?
"What are you afraid of?" he pursed his lips, his eyes slashing at her face.
At that moment, she felt as if she was completely seen through by the man in front of her. She couldn't help but tremble, and said quickly, "I'm afraid! Of course, I'm afraid! You said Jessica is the granddaughter of the boss of Liney's. If I do this, she will hate me to death. If she retaliates, Johnson's enterprise will be in trouble. I can't-"
"Lilly." He suddenly interrupted her coldly, looking straight at her, with a reassuring light flowing in his deep eyes, "Are you questioning my ability?"
"How could it be!" Lilly looked at him in surprise and almost blurted out, "You are the best!" As soon as the words came out, the man opposite was stunned, and she was also stunned.
Lilly couldn't help but curse herself for being quick-mouthed, and accidentally used the tone that teased the man in Provence before. His expression was still cold, and he didn't show any reaction. He quickly looked away and parked the car in the private garage.
So is this satisfied or dissatisfied?
Lilly was depressed. Every time she praised him, it seemed that he didn't like it. Isn't it said that flattery is not worn out? Why doesn't he eat this set?
"Get out of the car." He said coldly, opened the car door, and went down.
Lilly quickly unbuckled the seat belt and followed. The rain has stopped here. The ground was still a little wet. Lilly stepped into the rain and looked up at the villa in front of her.
The French-style villa, with a small garden surrounded by many flowers and plants, gave people a feeling of returning to nature. Maid, the hourly cleaner, had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Ethan coming, she immediately came forward.
"Hello, Mr. White."
He nodded and pointed to the trunk, "Move the ingredients in."
"Yes." She responded and went to the trunk to take the ingredients out.
"This is Miss Johnson from Johnson's Enterprise." He glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "Chef."
The maid was stunned and looked at her carefully from head to toe. She had also heard of Johnson's Enterprise. Its pharmaceutical chain industry has a very good reputation. Besides, such a young and beautiful girl, why did she come to be a chef for others?
Lilly laughed dryly at her compassionate eyes, then quickly followed him and walked into the villa together.
"She is only responsible for cleaning and delivering meals to Ziyan. You only need to make lunch for Ziyan before noon. Ziyan's crew is shooting, and she will not be back at noon today. For dinner, make it before 6 pm." He gave instructions in a cold voice.
Lilly wrote down everything one by one and asked in confusion, "Why make two portions?"
