Two days after the banquet, Claudia went to the Davidson residence in the afternoon, as she was to cook dinner for Rowant Bridget.
As soon as the taxi stopped in front of the Davidson's yard, Claudia walked straight to the front door, as she was used to coming there to meet Yohan.
As she stood at the door, the door opened and she passed Yohan who was about to leave.
Claudia was indeed a bit surprised to see him. But Yohan was much more surprised because he did not expect that Claudia would come to his house when he was about to leave.
"What are you doing here?" he asked in surprise. "And what did you come for? We don't have an appointment to meet, do we?"
She watched silently as he wore an expensive watch, and looked very presentable. She was pretty sure that he was going to go with Stephanie tonight.
"Oh... Did you miss me? That's why you came here," he continued to ask and held Claudia's hips. "Sorry baby, but I have business outside."
Feeling his hand on her hips, Claudia immediately pushed Yohan's hand away from touching her.
"Just leave, I'm not here to see you anyway," she replied coldly.
Yohan immediately gasped, surprised when he heard Claudia's cold response and said that she did not come to meet him.
"What? Then what did you come here for?"
At the same time, Davion appeared behind Yohan when he saw his son standing at the door and talking to someone.
They Davion saw Claudia who had been at the door.
"Oh Ms. Claudia, you have come. Why are you just standing at the door? Yohan, let her in," Davion said firmly.
"But dad, she..."
She immediately pushed Yohan out of her way and approached Davion.
"Did you buy all the ingredients I asked for?" she asked.
Davion nodded his head, saying that he had bought all the ingredients Claudia wanted. The woman smiled, then she was about to start cooking all the ingredients.
However, Yohan again held her back and questioned why Claudia had come to cook in his house.
He held her arm and pulled her closer.
"What is your real purpose? Why would you go that far just to-"
"Enough Yohan! Let Ms. Claudia go right now. We have business to do, and you'd better leave since you said that you have important 'business' outside," Davion ordered so firmly and coldly.
Yohan couldn't believe what he had just heard, as his father had never scolded him like this before and always spoke in a casual but firm tone.
Only this time it seemed excessive to actually scold him and pull Claudia away from Yohan by pulling her waist towards him.
Now it was the woman who was surprised, because she did not expect that Davion would wrap his arms around her waist, then pull her towards him.
Yohan felt confused because he did not want to leave Claudia with his father. He felt more and more suspicious about their closeness, because many times he saw his father and his girlfriend together.
'What exactly is that bitch up to? She's really changed. Damn, I have to get all her money before she dumps me because I have to dump her first,' Yohan thought in annoyance.
Without saying another word, Yohan immediately left his house.
Davion who watched could only sigh, then turned to Claudia.
"Are you alright?" he asked with a slightly worried face.
"I'm fine. I was just a bit surprised when Yohan pulled me like that," she replied and then she took Davion to the kitchen to make dinner.
In the kitchen, Claudia saw all the ingredients she had asked Davion to buy for her.
"I already bought pork, eggplant and shrimp. I'm also going to buy some of the other ingredients you asked for," she explained.
"What exactly do you want to make tonight?" she continued to ask.
"Tonight I'm going to make pork wrap fry with eggplants and shrimp," Claudia replied excitedly.
"Pork wrap fry with eggplants?"
She nodded her head. Explaining that it was a specialty from Mocoado. A country quite far from Zondalian, but it was also Rowant's hometown.
In her previous life, Claudia had begged Rowant to accept her offer to work with Yohan's company.
But the man kept refusing. Until finally he used to when Claudia prostrated herself and begged before him.
He finally accepted the request. With the condition that Claudia should be able to make food that could remind him of his childhood.
'I tried to find information about Mr. Bridget's childhood, until I finally went to Mocoado, to his hometown. And that's where I found this recipe and cooked it for him,' Claudia recalls.
And of course it paid off as Rowant eventually accepted Claudia's request for making his childhood meal.
That's why in this life, Claudia knew what she would make and how to make Rowant melt to accept Davion's company's Project.
"Then I have to cook now so that when he comes, all the food is already cooked."
Davion watched Claudia roll her hair up and tie it. She also put on an apron and started washing the eggplants and then cutting them.
As Claudia cooked, he kept watching her. Her beautiful face that looked serious but still had a smile on it, the curves of her body with the apron tied around her waist, and her neck that looked so soft when her hair was rolled up.
Both his hands were crossed in front of his chest, watching how Claudia wrapped the pork cutlet with thinly sliced eggplant and tied it with a piece of noodles that were briefly boiled.
'I admit she's very good at cooking. She's also beautiful and her writing is well-liked. Her tone is also so gentle. But is what Yohan said true? Claudia is always asking for money to buy luxury goods?' Davion thought.
Of course he didn't want to believe that, because he himself had never Claudia wearing expensive things when he was with her, nor going to the banquet two days ago.
Somehow when he was watching Claudia right now, he felt like he had a wife.
It had been a long time since he last felt this way. A woman who was not their maid, cooking in the kitchen with a face that looked so beautiful that it was even smiling.
He pushed himself off the wall and walked over to Claudia. His instinct seemed to take over to approach her and stand behind her.
"Is it about to be cooked?" he asked in a soft-sounding voice. It was like a husband coming home from work to see his wife cooking dinner.
"Just a little more done." Claudia took a spoon and fed Davion a piece of the meat she was cooking. "Try it, do you think it tastes right?"
He tasted the dish and nodded his head. Praising Claudia's intelligence in cooking. She chuckled at the compliment and went back to stirring the dish.
Looking at the small and beautiful figure in front of him, his heart was beating very fast especially when Claudia asked him to taste the dishes. She really was the figure of a wife that he had longed for and yearned for.
When Claudia was focused on cooking, suddenly a pair of hands hugged her from behind. She was quite surprised because the hand pulled her into the warm embrace of Davion Davidson.
"Mr. Davion?"
