Chapter 545

Amelia approached the cabinet and opened it. It was all imported snacks inside—most of it her favorites, but there were also many snacks she had never tried before. One of the snack boxes caught her eye. That's pretty. She took it. "So, why did you get these? For the guests?"

Frank looked at her for a moment and returned to his lunch. He was starving. He skipped breakfast, and Amelia was the one who brought him lunch. Even if she wasn't the one who made it, he thought the food was great. "Just eat the snacks. Don't ask too many questions."

Amelia pouted. Fine. Not like I wanted to ask anyway. She opened the box and had a bite, then she closed the box.

Only one piece? "That bad?" he asked. But she likes dessert. Kendall too. It's one of the reasons they are good friends.

"The box is pretty, and the snack is too, but the taste is just meh. Kendall's snacks are better."

Ever since Kendall started working at Parker Corporation, she almost never made any snacks. I miss her snacks.

Frank was silent. He never had the honor of enjoying Kendall's cooking. She was a woman of many talents. She could cook, bake, fight, and produce good art. She could also crochet. She gave Dylan the figurines of the horoscopes she made herself, and he loved them.

He would love to have a gift from Kendall, but she wouldn't even give him a moment of her attention. He was the one who almost ruined her life, after all. It was fortunate that Dylan was there to save her. It was too late for regrets, so Frank could only hope for her happiness. "That's not the only snack. Have some more."

"What if they're all bad?"


"Then just toss them away."

Amelia stayed silent for a while. "I should stop. I'll just take this with me." I can always give it to someone else if I don't like it. Throwing these away would be a waste.

Frank looked at her. "Stay with me."

"Sorry, busy schedule."

"Your only job is to make soup. I'm still working, so you have nothing to do."

"I'm seeing Kendall later," said Amelia honestly.

Frank said nothing. Every time Kendall was mentioned, he would have a brooding look on his face. Even though she knew Kendall didn't like Frank at all, Amelia still felt hurt. He can't let her go. Kendall's right. Falling for him will only bring me agony.

Once Frank was done with lunch, he stood up and did the dishes. Amelia wanted to help, but he wasn't saying anything at all, so she sat back down.

A moment later, he came back out and put the cleaned lunch boxes into the bag before handing them to Amelia. "Go. Lunch break is almost over. If you're quick, you might be able to have a little chat with Kendall."

So, he's telling me not to disturb Kendall during working hours? Amelia was jealous, but she stayed calm and took the bag. Then, she stood up. "I'm going, then. Are you coming back tonight? Or is there another appointment?"

"Another appointment after dinner. You're coming with me. I need a partner."

Amelia declined, "I'm just a cook. This is beyond my job scope. Moreover, you've never brought any partners with you to any event before. Everyone knows you're single. Who'd be stupid enough to make you bring a partner along?"

Frank gazed at her. Calmly, he said, "You're part of my household now, so you're following my orders. I'll be going back at five and setting off for the appointment at seven. Get ready before then."

"Wait. What do you mean I'm part of your household?"
