Chapter 1314 You're Cooking Coals in the Pot
In the past, Jessica did not have to do housework and lived a carefree life. So she couldn't cook at all.
When Jessica cooked lunch, she followed the steps strictly in the recipe, but it didn't turn out that way.
She had to video chat with Summer, who was an incredible cook.
Summer had little contact with the Jarretts, and Leonardo had no feelings for the Emersons anymore.
Leonardo declined all gathering invitations on the first day of the New Year so that they three could stay
at home.
When Jessica made the video call, Summer was having fun with Rosie.
"Jessica, happy New Year!"
When the video call was connected, she immediately saw Summer's warm smile as well as Rosie's
adorable little head.
"Happy New Year, Auntie Jessica." Rosie said.
"Rosie, happy New Year. I will come to visit you tomorrow and prepare a big gift for you. But now,
Auntie has something urgent to talk with your mother."
After Rosie made an "OK" gesture, she did not appear on the camera again.
"What's so urgent?" Summer was curious. What urgent matter could Jessica have to talk to her? This
was the first day of the New Year.
"I want to cook braised pork. How much sugar and spices should I put in? The recipe says 'some'. How
much is 'some'..."
Jessica asked a lot of questions.
Summer stared at the screen carefully and saw from the screen that she was in the kitchen.
Summer said to Jessica, "What are you doing? Are you learning how to cook?"
"Yes." Jessica confirmed with a conscientious nod.
Summer paused for a moment and said tactfully, "You have rarely worked recently, right?"
"Why did you say the same as Carl? I really, really, really ... want to learn how to cook." To show her
determination, Jessica used three "really" in a row.
Summer was worried about Jessica, "What happened?"
Since the first day she knew Jessica, Jessica had never done any housework.
Jessica wasn’t a woman who would or need to do housework. Summer was unable to connect her with
cooking.
Summer couldn't imagine Jessica chopping vegetables and cooking soup in an apron, having
everything under control in the kitchen.
"If you don't teach me how to cook, I won't be your best friend anymore." Jessica snorted proudly.
Summer got goose bumps when Jessica said those cutesy words, "Alright, alright, I'll teach you.
However, you are just getting started. Don't start with the hard ones. Choose a simple one."
"And what is that?"
"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes."
"That was no challenge to me. I won't lower myself to it." Jessica said.
Upstairs, in the study.
Leonardo prepared to go downstairs to play with Rosie for a while and then to eat.
Just as he got up, his phone rang. It was a video call.
Leonardo was not surprised to see that the person who was making the video call was Carl.
Only Carl was bored to call him now.
Leonardo picked up the call and looked at Carl's head on the screen. He asked expressionlessly,
"What's wrong?"
"Something serious." Carl said with a solemn expression.
Leonardo frowned, "Did something happen to Tip Top Media?"
Carl shook his head and turned the camera back, "Do you see that?"
Leonardo took a serious look. It was a dark mess inside, and it took him a moment to discern, "Are you NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
cooking coals in the pot?"
Carl was so angry that he yelled, "Braised chicken wings!"
"Oh." Leonardo replied indifferently. "Didn't you like braised pork the most? Why do you cook chicken
wings?"
Carl said, "Jessica likes chicken wings!"
Leonardo said, "Haven't you given her up yet?"
