Chapter 257 Mr. Martin Is Really Happy

Hearing Stanley guess that Chloe was planning a surprise for him, Grant's face lit up with joy.

He smiled and said, "If it's really a surprise, I can't wait!"

When Grant got off work in the evening, he intentionally stayed in the office a bit longer to finish up some tasks. By the time he arrived home, it was already past seven o'clock.

The housekeeper had laid out a full spread of dishes on the dining table. Chloe was sitting at the table playing on her phone, while Mia stood beside her with a pained expression.

Seeing Mia's troubled face, Grant walked over, puzzled.

"Mia, what's up?" he asked casually.

Mia quickly replied, "Mr. Martin, I'm fine. It's just that tonight's dinner was made by Miss Davis. You could have your meal with Miss Davis first..."

With that, Mia hurriedly left the dining room.

Chloe scooted over to Grant, her face beaming with pride. "Grantie, I got out of school early today and had nothing to do, so I made dinner for you. Try it and see how it is."

Hearing that Chloe had made dinner, Grant's eyes moved to the dining table. He felt a surge of delight; Chloe had indeed given him a surprise.

It was the first time he would be eating a meal cooked by Chloe.

And to be fair, the dinner looked quite sumptuous.

There were dishes from the Northwest region and a steak. The steak she had cooked looked pretty good in terms of color and aroma, but Grant had no idea how it tasted.

Chloe placed a piece of steak in front of Grant. "Grantie, I cooked this steak myself. Mia said you don't like it too well-done, so I cooked it a bit rare. Try it and see how it is." Grant couldn't bear to refuse Chloe's good intentions.
