Chapter 82

Chapter 82 Donovan had cancelled a dull dinner engagement just to get all work early and be home by six , only to be greeted by a table of culinary disasters . Giselle knew she needed to do some damage control , So she sat down next to him , wrapped her arms around his neck , and began coaxing him sweetly . " Hey , don't be mad , okay ? This was my first attempt at a proper dinner . I used to be only good at malding bacon , eggs , and instant noodles . " Come on , you're a CEO .

I couldn't just feed you peasant food like bacon and eggs , so I went for the fancy stuff like fish , shrimp , pork chops , and honey barbecue ribs … I just didn't realize cooking was this handl " But don't wony , I promise I'll improve every day , Givene till mot's end and I'll be serving a banquet fit for a king ! " Donovan remained silent . He lifted his eyes slightly , meeting her stuming face .

Seelog Giselle act linneently and gently , he found his irritation slowly fading If only you were this obedient from the beginning , " he muttered , his gaze dark and deep as he studied her . Donovan lifted her chin with his fingers . He gently kissed the bridge of her nose , then let lits lips find hers , naturally , slipping into a kiss .

Compared to the failed dishes , she stirred his appetite far more Giselle feared Donovan might starve since no housekeepers were around and her cooking was inedible . So , she ordered gourmet takeout from a high - end restaurant . Finally , he got a satisfying dinner . After the meal , Donovan went to his study for a video conference with some foreigners . Meanwhile , Giselle cleaned up the kitchen and began washing his clothes .

Hisclothes were all worth tens of thousands and were rarely worn more than once . The housekeepers usually hand - washed them and ironed them until they were completely crease - free Luckily , Donovan loved cleanliness , and his wom clothes weren't dicty at all , making them easy to wash . Giselle stood in the laundry room on the first floor , scrubbing his shirts while humming to herself .

Just then , Donovan emerged from his meeting and happened to catch a glimpse of her busy figure as she washed and hung up his laundry . He crossed his arms and leaned on the second - floor railing , silently watching her . Donovan almost didn't recognize her . He thought of how arrogant and unnily she used to be , then compared it to the sweet and attentive way she acted now , Giselle could be both ruthlessly fierce and wildly unrestrained .

Yet when she wanted to please him , she could also humble herself completely . She could shift between her facets instantaneously , Donovan knew full well what her real motives were . He was also aware of the danger she carried beneath the surface . Yet somehow , he was gradually losing himself . He was ge s getting pulled deeper into this trap she had woven While Donovan was lost in thought , Giselle had just finished hanging up the clothes and was walking back inside .
