Reclaiming What My Ex Stole novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58

“I’m telling you, you better come home right now. I don’t agree with you dating someone that much older…”

Charlotte’s scalp tingled. “Mom, calm down. I’m not coming home tonight, you and Dad don’t have to wait up for me.”

Kathy became even more exasperated when she heard this. “Where exactly are you? Are you trying to make your mother die of anger?”

“What kind of man did you find? You have to bring him home and let us meet him first.”

Charlotte didn’t plan to hide it anymore and said shyly, “Mom, don’t worry! He’s a great guy, and I really like him.”

“He said he wants to marry me. But he’s going on a business trip to Belvaria tomorrow. When he gets back, I’ll bring him home to meet you and Dad.”

Kathy was stunned, unable to react for a long time. “… What did you say? You want to marry that old man?”

“We haven’t even met him yet, and you’re already making such a big decision on your own?”

“Mom, when he gets back from Belvaria, I’ll bring him to meet you. I’m not coming home tonight, so don’t worry about me.”

With that, Charlotte hung up the phone.

After hanging up.

She couldn’t help but chuckle, imagining what her parents‘ reactions would be when they met Gregory.

But she had made up her mind.

It had to be Gregory.

Besides him, she doubted any other man could ever enter her heart!

“Finished your call?”

“Yeah, I’m not going home tonight.”

Gregory wrapped his arm around her slender waist, dotingly saying, “Silly girl, from now on, this is your home. Are you hungry?”

“Mm… a little, but I don’t really have much of an appetite.”

Gregory chuckled, “Heh, how about I make you some pasta? You haven’t eaten all day–what if you starve?”

Charlotte was stunned, looking at him in disbelief. “You can cook?”

“Of course, I’m actually a great cook.”

“Then I’d like to try it.”

“Alright, just wait here.” Gregory kissed her forehead and got up to head to the kitchen.

Charlotte, full of curiosity, happily followed behind him.

She was truly surprised–a billionaire tycoon with a packed schedule, and he could actually cook?

He entered the kitchen.

Gregory opened the refrigerator and took out a box of T–bone steak, some vegetables, and a handful of scallions. Then, he took out a few tomatoes.

He skillfully turned on the stove and started boiling water.

He took out a frying pan and began to sear the steak.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle…”

The steak was tender and marbled with rich fat.

He took out some oil–absorbing paper and blotted away the excess

grease.

Then he fried two sunny–side–up eggs.

After finishing all this.

The water was already boiling, so he took two packs of pasta and cooked them until soft.

Afterwards, he added some tomatoes and vegetables. When serving, he sprinkled a bit of scallion on top.

It took less than twenty minutes.

Two steaming bowls of pasta were brought to the table.

“Alright, let’s eat.”

Charlotte glanced at the bowl. The broth was golden, the color, aroma, and taste all perfectly balanced, yet not greasy at all.

Gregory chuckled, “What are you staring at?”

“Wow, you’re amazing! I just never imagined you could cook!” Charlotte praised him sincerely.

She sat down on the chair and picked up a fork to take a bite.

The pasta was chewy and flavorful, the toppings were sour and spicy, surprisingly delicious and just to her taste.

“How is it? Does it taste good?”

Charlotte nodded in admiration, “It’s really good! Who taught you?”

Gregory smiled gently, but didn’t answer her question.

He also picked up his fork and began to eat slowly and methodically.

Charlotte originally had no appetite and felt nauseous at the smell of anything.

But this bowl of pasta was refreshing and not greasy at all. She finished more than half the bowl in one go
