Chapter 282: Chapter 285

Chapter 285 Once McKenzie left the mansion, Chris ran up the stairs happily back to the computer room. He launched himself right into Charmine’s arms and chirped, “Momo is done! Mommy and Daddy don’t have to worry about her anymore; she won’t be back for the next three days!”

“Thank you, Momo. Aren’t you scared of those pythons?” asked Charmine, concerned for the boy.

He was so young, only five years old. How could he face so many pythons without even flinching?

Chris smiled and answered, “Not at all! Momo had watched them grow since young. Also, Daddy used to b e out all the time and didn’t have time to spend with Momo, so since Momo had nobody to play with, I’d play with them. They’re very nice and never harmed anyone! I like them!”

His child-like, innocent voice tugged at Charmine’s heart and it tightened. So, Chris truly did grow up alone? His grandparents did not like him, he had no mother, and his father did not spend much time with him. If she was to leave him in the future, would he have to go back to the way he lived back then? 1 Heart aching in pain, Charmine took a deep breath and praised, “Momo is so clever! Mommy will cook good food for Momo, alright? I’ll make you a lobster roll!”

“Wow! Really? A lobster roll? Momo wants a lobster roll!” Chris chirped as he jumped in joy.

“Of course.” Charmine held his hand and walked toward the kitchen. She did not even shut off the computer; her only focus was to spend more time with Chris.

Meanwhile, Anthony’s eyes felt on the computer screen. It was a management platform with thousands o frecordings. His eyes darkened. What else was this woman capable of?

Charmine brought Chris to the kitchen where all the maids lowered their heads and greeted, “Ms. Jordan.”

“Go and get some rest, I’ll make the lunch myself.” Charmine saw the basket of lobsters in the corner and walked toward it.

The lobsters were of high-quality aquaculture, and they looked big and clean.

The maids were terrified as they all shook their heads. “Ms. Jordan, that’s not appropriate! Please just tell us what you’d like to eat today..!”

“Don’t worry, go and get some rest. This is my order.” Charmine sat by the basket and motioned for Christ o come next to her.

Chris also gave the maids a look, and the maids eventually left the kitchen. He walked toward Charmine and beamed, “Mommy, are these lobsters? Can children eat these?”

“Of course! Mommy will make you a tomato lobster roll, full of calcium and magnesium. It can strengthen your immune system as well.”

As she spoke, Charmine picked up a lobster and got to work on it skillfully. She first cut off its claws before she cut open the tail.

After that, she cleaned the head and the stomach.

Chris stared at her wide-eyed. “Mommy knows how to handle lobsters?”

The heiresses that chased after Anthony most of the time could not even cook. It astounded Chris that not only was Charmine pretty, but she even knew how to make complex dishes as well! 1 “Of course! Back when Mommy was in Africa, I always cooked for myself. During the training, I even-” Charmine stopped abruptly as she realized she said something she should not have. She looked at Chris and changed the subject, “Anyway, Mommy is highly skilled, and I’ll make you yummy lobster roll. Why don’t Momo go help me cut some onions?”

“Of course, of course!” Chris stood up happily.

However, most of the vegetables and seasonings were planted in the vegetable garden outside, and they only harvest them when needed. Thus, Chris went to the garden with the maids.

She looked at his silhouette with a loving gaze. So long as Chris continued to expand his knowledge, he would be able to use up his time better while making his life more interesting. Also, Charmine had never made him a nice meal after knowing him for so long.

Charmine continued to work on the lobster, fully concentrated, when she heard a hissing sound.

That was strange. Charmine turned her gaze with suspicion and saw many pythons slithering toward her!
