Chapter 225 Leo's Suspicion

"Oh, thanks." Amelie only realized she was supposed to take the ginger from him then. She took it and peeled its skin off with a knife while Leo simply stood around and watched her. She was dumbfounded. Why is he looking at me as if I'm putting on some performance for him? "The kitchen can smell pretty oily and smoky after a while. I think you should wait outside, Mr. Alston. Food will be ready in 20 minutes." She felt too uneasy about having him watching her cook, so she 'kindly' reminded him of the stench in the kitchen. Leo nodded to show acknowledgment but remained in his spot anyway. Amelie no longer knew what to say. Fine, fine. He can watch me if he wants to. A rich guy like him has probably never seen anyone preparing his food. Perhaps he thinks of me as one of those people on cooking shows. In the end, she simply kept her focus on her food, completely ignoring the man's existence.
