18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 45

Upon hearing Stella's words, Jasper frowned, "Rosie is timid?"

Stella shook her head, "She has a people-pleasing personality. She seems afraid of making others angry and subconsciously tries to please them."

For instance, she would offer eggs to her and Cooper, always peeking at her while doing homework, afraid of being disliked. Not only was she afraid of Stella, but she was also scared of her own brother. In order to please Jasper, she would train in boxing until she hurt herself and still not utter a word.

Such a child can sometimes be heartbreaking.

Jasper was silent for a while, "Rosie is my parents' second child. They died in a car accident a few years ago, and I couldn't come back from working out of town, so I had to leave Rosie in the care of my uncle. Rosie used to be very lively and loved to laugh. I didn't expect her to change so much when I came back from retirement. However, I feel that she has been changing recently, and now she is even brave enough to point out my shortcomings. Thank you for your intervention."

Stella also once had this kind of tendency, living in fear in the orphanage, always trying to please people so that they would see the good in her. Not just her, most of the children there would do that. Thankfully, they managed to get out of that situation later. Rosie needed encouragement, but she also needed to express her real emotions, even if they were negative.

Now it was the end of the world. If Rosie's personality and values were not adjusted in time, it would be very dangerous when encountering strangers. This was a big project, and Jasper can only figure it out on his own.

In the end, the pork had a deep taste, a smooth and supple texture, and a fatty but not oily appearance. Jasper, the kitchen disaster, was now on the right track under her guidance.

As long as the commands were in place, Jasper could be a good soldier. She continued to teach him how to make other dishes.

With six people and a dog, two dishes were not enough.

Jasper took out six eggs and two sausages, and continued to his cooking tutoring with Stella.

Cody and the others were envious of his supplies. Did this guy have too many resources? They envied him, but they knew better than to pry into his business. Misunderstandings or suspicions in the end times could be fatal. He was willing to share; they should be grateful.

With three main dishes and a side of bean sprout salad, everyone was extremely satisfied, and in the end, even the gravy was finished.
