Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 455 Entrap Him on Purpose

Based on their married couple-like bickering, that only further proves that Miss Lynwood is head over heels for Mr. Winthrop. All the employees sighed inwardly.

Just like that, the two held hands and waltzed out of the company.

Since Callum would be cooking this evening, they naturally needed to drop by the nearby supermarket to get some ingredients before they headed to Elspeth's place.

She couldn't help but smile and nudge Callum with her elbow when she saw him staring at a cabbage as though he had never seen one before. "Hey. You said you're going to make me dinner, right? But why have I never known that you could cook?"

Sure enough, Callum would never breathe a word to her that he only learned a few special dishes after browsing through countless cooking tutorials and destroying several pans.

"You don't need to worry about that." He stared at her face and frowned slightly before he turned his head and picked a few more carrots from the shelf.

When she caught sight of the violently orange carrots that he threw into the shopping cart, she instinctively reached toward the car, took them out, and placed them back on the shelf. "I don't like carrots."

Only then did he realize that he hadn't asked about her preferences and whether she had particular dietary restrictions.

So, he immediately asked, in order to rectify his neglect, "What's the food that you dislike, then?"

With that, Elspeth started naming them out loud. "Let's see… I dislike carrots, bean sprouts, celery, brussels sprouts, mushrooms, fish…"

The longer Callum listened, the more troubled he felt. Pulled pork burritos, garlic butter steak with brussels sprouts, baked Tilapia… These are all the dishes that I have learned. Yet, it turns out that she won't enjoy the dishes I'm making.

He immediately furrowed his brows in dejection.

Naturally, she noticed his sudden change in demeanor and hastily realized that she had probably backed him into a difficult spot. Therefore, she quickly corrected her statement, "Actually, it's not like I completely dislike them. I can have them once in a while."

Only then did Callum's facial expression brighten a little. "Then, I will continue with the plan and make you these dishes."

Wait a minute. I seem to really dislike carrots! When that thought came to mind, she wished so badly that she could bite her tongue off. Why? Oh, why did I correct myself? We could just dine out if things don't work out. Now I'm about to eat something I dislike! But it's too late to turn back now. He might explode if I change my mind and tell him that I hate carrots.
