Chapter 248 248: You make me lose my mind

"No, Daniel, it won't happen. I cannot allow you to work here." Gracey denied his request the tenth time, but the boy remained persistent in convincing her.

She couldn't understand why he was so adamant on working at the bakery when he could sit in his room and play video games or simply relax. But instead, he was trying to persuade her to let him work with her throughout her vacation.

"What's wrong with me helping you, Gracey? It's a better way for us to spend time together than for me to sit on the table and watch you run across the room collecting orders," he queried, perplexed as to why she was so resistant to his aid.

"That is because you have never done it before, and Mom will be upset if I ask her boss's son to run errands at her small baking shop. So please drop that plan and go home," Gracey said, giving no space for argument.

Daniel gave him a defeated expression, but she ignored him and continued to knead bread dough before placing it in the oven.

In some ways, he knew Gracey was correct because he had never entered the kitchen or raised a dish for himself before. Working here would just make her regular responsibilities more stressful. But wasn't she the one who taught that experience makes man perfect? He wanted to experience this by assisting her.

"I will not leave until you agree with me. And don't worry about your mother; she'll never find out I work here," Daniel replied, making his way across the long counter and following her into the kitchen.

"Step aside and let me help you," Daniel said, pushing her to the side and taking the whisk from her hand to begin combining the batter.

Gracey stared at him, surprised, but Daniel continued to ignore her and follow her prior actions. He was sloppy at first, but after mastering the technique, he gradually improved his whisking skills.

A slight smile tugged at the corner of her lips, and she leaned against the counter, watching him work hard.
