My Killing President

Chapter 664 Cook

"I am simply curious!" Alistair said nonchalantly but he was examining his father's expression. He could

observe a hint of shock in Zen's face. Therefore, Alistair was sure that his father knew that person.

He must have known something but he didn't tell him.

"Where did you hear that name?"

"Kaleb Hua told me!"

The moment Zen heard Kaleb Hua's name, his face turned pale.

It was beyond his expectation that Alistair would get entangled to this matter. His eyebrows knitted

closely and he was in deep thought.

"Dad, are you hiding something from me?"

Zen knew that he wouldn't be able to hide things from his son. Alistair was a meticulous person and he

could catch on with the slightest clue. Zen raised his gaze and looked at him, "Alistair, you should drop

this and don't ask anymore. When it is time for you to know more, you will naturally know about it!" It

was obvious that the father couldn't tell him at this moment.

Alistair frowned, "Dad, we can solve this together!"

Zen smiled, "Don't worry, even if anything were to happen, it is not related to me at all, you don't have

to worry!" Alistair stared at Zen for a long time before he nodded, "All right then, remember to tell me if

anything happens!"

Zen nodded. He looked outside the window and said, "It's getting late now, shouldn't the two of you go

back now?"

Alistair looked outside the window and it was already dark. He averted his gaze and said, "Let me go

downstairs and check!"

"Yeah, drive safe!"

"Got it!"

After walking out, Alistair stood in front of the door. He was assured that his father was hiding things

from him.

Not only that, it was related to this Dawson Xiao…

Dawson Xiao…

Alistair stood on the spot and his gaze was deep like the bottom of the sea. He seemed to have made

up his mind and walked away.

When he got down, the grandmother and Madam Mu was still talking to Annabelle. Annabelle sat

between the two women and blinked her eyes while listened attentively. She was trying her best to

remember everything they said. When Alistair looked at her innocent face, a smile blossomed on his

gorgeous and perfect face, "Grandma, shouldn't you be resting at this hour?"

The moment Alistair asked that, he interrupted their conversation.

Annabelle checked the time and nodded, "Exactly, grandma, you should be resting now!"

"But I am not feeling sleepy at all!" The grandmother was still in the mood to continue.

"Grandma, your health is more important. You still have plenty of chance to chit chat. You don't have to

rush things!" Alistair walked behind the couch and put his arms across Annabelle's shoulders. The man

was holding Annabelle like a cage.

"Stop bothering us!"

Madam Mu nodded as well, "That's right, mother, it's too late now and you should really go rest for now.

Annabelle will drop by frequently and you have more than enough time to talk to her!"

The grandmother, "…"

With the three of them ganging up on her, the grandma stood no chance.

Finally, she sighed helplessly, "All right then!" After that, she looked at Annabelle and said, "Annabelle,

you must remember to visit this old woman more often!"

Annabelle nodded, "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will be sure to visit you as often as possible!"

The grandmother was contended when she heard that. She looked at them and said, "Be careful on

your way back!"

"Got it, grandma. Good night!" Alistair said smilingly.

The grandmother gave him an eye roll and she went upstairs happily. There was nothing that brings

her as much joy as seeing her family being happy.

Madam Mu held the grandmother's arm and brought her upstairs. Before Alistair and Annabelle left,

she reminded them, "Drive safe!"

"Got it, mum. Good night!"

After Alistair and Annabelle saw them walking upstairs, they left the house.

When they got in the car, Annabelle felt a wonder with the change of life in time.

Few days ago, she was still in conflict with Alistair and they weren't talking to each other. But now, the

storm had passed.

When Alistair saw that Annabelle was quiet, he looked at her and asked, "What were you thinking?"

"I was simply thinking, how great it would be if life could be simple like this forever!" Annabelle said

smilingly.

Alistair understood what she was trying to say. He stretched out his hand and held hers, "Annabelle, I

promise you. Just give me a little bit more time and I promise life will become simple and wonderful!"

Annabelle simply smiled, "Nobody can get anything in life. I don't demand life to be easy-going, I simply

wish that we could have a simple and honest relationship!"

"We most certainly will!" Alistair said as he held Annabelle's hand firmly. It was as if he was giving an

oath.

Annabelle looked at him and broke into a chuckle.

Alistair was driving fast and they reached home in no time.

Right after they got into the house, Annabelle said, "I shall go and shower first!"

"Okay!" Alistair answered nonchalantly. When he saw Annabelle walking into the bathroom, he blurted

out, "Do you need my help?"

Annabelle blushed and turned back to look at him, "I shouldn't trouble you with that. I can manage on

my own!"

Alistair stood up and walked towards her. He hugged her and said, "I have promised to take good care

of you. Showering you should be within my job scope…"

Annabelle, "… I can relieve you of this particular responsibility!"

"Since I've promised you, I must make sure to do my job properly!" After saying that, he carried

Annabelle up and walked into the bathroom.

Annabelle struggled, "Alistair, no, let me down…"

……

After the shower.

Alistair took a bath towel and covered Annabelle. He carried her from the bathroom to the bed.

Annabelle's face was completely blushed like an inviting apple.

She had never showed her body so ‘straight-forwardly' before. And now, she was too shy to even raise

her face. She couldn't bear to look at Alistair in the eyes.

Alistair broke into a laughter, "Miss Xia, if you continue to lower your head like that, it will drop to the

floor!"

The person that was most tormented and also the victim should be Alistair! He could only see his

‘dessert' and couldn't taste her. It felt horrible!

However, he knew that Annabelle wasn't in the best health and he let her off.

Annabelle simply curled in the blanket and lied down in bed, "Mr. Mu, it's getting late now. I will sleep

now and you should sleep earlier as well!"

At that time, Alistair turned over and got into her blanket. The man hugged Annabelle tightly.

"You…"

"Don't move, just let me hug you like this!" Alistair heard her from behind and Annabelle could hear his

deep voice next to her ear.

After Annabelle heard that, she didn't move.

Alistair hugged her and closed his eyes, "It had been too long since I hug you like this!"

Annabelle felt moved but she didn't say anything.

It was quiet in the room and none of them spoke. The only thing they heard was each other's breaths…

The next day.

When Annabelle woke up, Alistair was already gone. The woman heard some clanking outside the

room. She changed into a comfortable pajama and walked out wearing her cotton slippers.

When she got into the living room, she saw Alistair's bustling back view in the kitchen. His tall and huge

built looked inharmonious with the kitchen. However, he had a different kind of manly and mature

charm.

Annabelle's lips curled up. She was surprised to see Alistair actually getting up to prepare breakfast.

Alistair felt the gaze from behind and he turned his head back. The morning sunlight shone on

Annabelle through the French window and the man just couldn't avert his eyes away from her.

"You're up!" He raised an eyebrow and cheered. The man's charming and deep voice was seductive in

the morning.

"Yeah!" Annabelle nodded and walked towards him, "How was it, are you done?"

Alistair was holding two eggs and he seemed lost. The ever so confident man looked so helpless,

"What should I do with this?"

When Annabelle saw him, she couldn't help but broke into a chuckle. However, she wouldn't give that

chance up to ridicule him, "Oh dear me, Mr. Mu, aren't you the invincible man? How can two simple

eggs trouble you that much?"

Alistair was a man that takes no taunting. Even if he didn't know how, he would put on a tough front.

"Who said that? It's just cooking some eggs!" After saying that, Alistair looked at the eggs in both of his

hands and then decided to give it a go.

He switched on the stove and took a deep breath. The man woke up early in the morning and after he

poured two glass of milk, he had spent all the remaining time studying how to switch on the stove fire.

In the end, he gave up and called Jack. Jack was so surprised to hear that from him. However, it turned

out that Jack didn't know how as well. The two men had no other choice but to search it in the Internet.

After a long hassle, they managed to get the fire settled.

Alistair started pouring the cooking oil. However, he didn't know how much he should pour and he kept

going on and on. In the end, Alistair almost finished pouring all the oil inside the frying pan.

Annabelle was shocked but she wasn't in time to stop him. He had poured too much and she called out

anxiously, "Mr. Mu, do you know the person that sells you the cooking oil?"

Alistair blinked his eyes innocently and answered, "No!"

"If you don't, why are you pouring so much?" Annabelle said that and hurriedly cleaned up the mess.

Alistair simply stood behind and said, "The CEO of the largest cooking oil company tried to get me to

invest in his company. But I rejected him every time!" The man said smugly.

Annabelle, "…"

After handling the situation, Annabelle explained, "Just a little bit would suffice!"

Without realizing, Annabelle started to take charge. Alistair hurriedly took the spatula away from her

hand and said, "I got it, I will handle this!"

After saying that, he pointed towards the two glasses of milk, "You should drink this first, I will be done

soon!"

When Annabelle looked at the two glasses of milk, she asked in disbelief, "Mr. Mu, don't tell me you

only managed to settle two glasses of milk the entire morning?"

"Who said that? I just woke up not too long ago!"

Alistair wouldn't admit that he spent almost 2 hours in the kitchen and the only thing he got done was

two glasses of milk. It was just too embarrassing.

When Annabelle looked at Alistair trying to act tough, she chuckled and lifted a glass to drink. After that

she nodded in approval, "Yeah, not too bad. It tasted good!"

Alistair, "……"

That did not sound like a compliment.

What did taste of the milk have to do with him? The man simply took it out and poured them into

glasses…

When Annabelle saw that Alistair was beating the eggs, she couldn't help but interrupted, "Don't beat it

so hard…"

And Alistair immediately beat them softly.

"You should treat them gently and they would listen to you…" Annabelle talked to him from behind.

Alistair's action was clumsy. It was better if Annabelle remained quiet. Now that she was pointing

fingers all over, the man was completely lost.

The man simply tapped the eggs gently on the table. Right when he wanted to open it, the entire egg

fell inside the frying pan. Including the egg shells.

When Annabelle saw that, she broke into a laughter. Everything was done comically within her

expectation.

"Damn it!"

Alistair couldn't help but cursed. He stretched out his hand and wanted to pick up the egg shells.

"Careful, it's hot!"

Annabelle called out in time and stopped him from putting his hand in the boiling hot oil. At that time,

she took out a pair of chopsticks and extracted the egg shells.

When Alistair looked at Annabelle's skilled movements, all of the sudden he felt that she was

absolutely charming.

Every person has their own strengths and weaknesses. But in Alistair's eyes, Annabelle only had

strengths. Even when she was acting greedily or a glutton, she looked completely adorable.

"Mr. Mu, if you have an iron hand, I don't mind that you put your hand inside directly!"

While Annabelle was cooking, she made sure to show and teach Alistair.

After a few minutes, Annabelle took out a sunny side egg. Although it wasn't the most perfect sunny

side, Annabelle had done a great job in saving the ingredient.

At that time, Alistair looked at Annabelle's egg and nodded, "I got it now. This time round I can definitely

do it!"

"Really?"

Annabelle raised an eyebrow and looked at him. The woman's gaze was filled with doubt and disbelief.

Alistair nodded seriously, "That's right. Therefore, you should go out right now. If you stay here, I will be

distracted!"

Annabelle didn't know what to say.

He was the one that couldn't do it and he put the blame on her.

All right then, she shall go out and wait.

"Good luck, I will wait for your good work!"

After saying that, Annabelle took the glasses of milk and left the kitchen smilingly.

Alistair watched as Annabelle went out. After that, he concentrated at the egg in front of him and

prepared for his ‘battle'.

He couldn't believe that he wouldn't be able to settle mere eggs!

He did accordingly as Annabelle taught him. After heating up the frying pan, he dropped the egg inside

gently. This time round, he succeeded and only a tiny bit of egg shell fell inside. He hurriedly took it out

with chopsticks. After that, he smiled smugly. As expected, nothing could stop him.

As he thought about that, he took up the spatula and started scooping…

However, why did the sunny side egg turn into something different?

Why are they looking all messed up? Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

…

Annabelle sat in the dining table and she could see what happened in the kitchen. The woman was

drinking her milk and her lips curled up. Whenever she saw Alistair getting panic, she would burst into a

giggle.

It was truly a joy in life to see such a magnificent and exceptional man trying something out of his

comfort for her sake. Most importantly, he was willing to learn and fail. That was definitely an act of

love. Annabelle looked at him and she couldn't help but laughed from time to time.

After sometime, Alistair came out with a plate from the kitchen. The man had a weird expression.

Annabelle sat there and looked at him, "What's the matter?"

Alistair looked at the eggs and lowered it to the table, "We can eat now!"

His movements were cool as always.

Therefore, Annabelle took a look at his eggs and tried her best not to laugh. Was that a sunny side up?

It looked more like a messed-up scramble egg…

However, in order not to hurt Alistair's feelings, she tried her best to hold in her laughter, "Hmm,

considering that this is the first time for you, you did a great job!"

"Really?"

Alistair raised an eyebrow and asked.

Annabelle nodded, "Yeah, really!"

Alistair felt comforted. He sat down and started to eat.

"You should eat the one you made and I'll eat this!"

When Alistair looked at the petty sight in his plate, he decided not to let Annabelle risk.

Annabelle chuckled, "Let's eat!"

At that time, Alistair put a mouthful into his mouth. The moment he did that, he was stunned.

Annabelle did the same and she was stunned as well.

The two persons looked at each other and kept quiet.

After sometime, Annabelle spoke, "Mr. Mu, did you forget to put salt?"

"I didn't know I needed to put salt…"

Annabelle, "…"

She had completely forgotten about it too…

The couple looked at each other and Alistair stood up in frustration. He took the plate from her and

said, "Don't eat that. Let me bring you out for breakfast!"

When Annabelle saw that he wanted to take the plate away, she hurriedly snatched it back, "No!"

"Can you stomach that?"

Alistair looked at her and asked.

Annabelle simply answered, "The taste isn't important for me. The nutrition is!"

After saying that, she continued to eat.

Alistair knew that Annabelle did that for the child and also for him.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken it.

When he thought about that, he felt a heavy heartedness and he decided not to throw the food away.

He sat down and accompanied Annabelle as she finished the tasteless eggs.

Although it was tasteless, it grew in to them as they continued to eat.

Annabelle looked at Alistair and her lips curled up.

After the breakfast, she asked, "Aren't you going to the company?"

"I am!"

Annabelle looked at the time and said, "Look at the time now!"

Alistair simply chuckled, "So what? I am the boss and I can be late!"

"President Mu, as the boss, you should set a good example. Otherwise, I'm afraid your workers might

not be happy!"

"Do you think anyone dares?"

Alistair said and walked towards Annabelle. He hugged her waist and said, "I want to accompany you

for a little longer!"

"President Mu, since when are you so clingy?"

Annabelle said as her eyes smiled into a crescent.

"Ever since the day I know you!"

Alistair did not deny. He looked at her and said, "When do you plan to go back to the company?"

"Now that my pregnancy isn't stable, do you want me to go back and sit down for extended hours and

face the radiation from the computers?" Annabelle asked.

Alistair considered the issue seriously and he looked at her, "Therefore, I have decided to promote you

to be my secretary. Now you will be able to stay by my side all the time!"

"But it is hectic to be a secretary!"

"That's why your only job is to rest in the lounge in my office, eat something from time to time and read

books!" Alistair said.
