Chapter 430
“Of course I am.” Thaddeus put on indoor slippers and went into the kitchen with Bonnie.
“What are we going to cook today?”
She opened the fridge. “I’ve prepared the ingredients. I will teach you how to make blackened catfish and Jamaican jerk pork ribs. Hmm… Let’s add cheeseburger sliders to the list. Kids love that.
“You might think sliders are typical food, and you could easily make it. That’s not the case here. Culinary art isn’t all about the ingredients. If your skills are subpar, then even the best and most expensive ingredients would’ve been wasted.
“It takes an excellent cook to make the most common food ever.”
“I agree with you wholeheartedly.” He nodded. Then, he couldn’t stop himself from asking it. “Speaking of,
I noticed a pair of slippers for kids in the cabinet earlier. A minute ago, you talked about making a dish
that kids love.
“Who’s the kid to you? Is he your little brother?”
“I guess you can say that.” She responded.
“Does that mean he’s, in fact, not your little brother?” He sensed that there was more to the story.
She slammed the catfish onto the cutting board and gave him a sidelong glance, giving him a hint.
He immediately made another gesture and zipped his mouth shut.
At that moment, a black Maybach quietly pulled over outside her villa. Ged pointed at the luxurious car parked on the porch and asked, “Why does that car look a little familiar?”
Ivor also noticed the white Bentley.
“Why does that look so much like Thaddeus’s car?” The more he looked at it, the more he thought he was right. “It can’t be, though.”
Then, he cast his mind back to what his childhood friend told him a few days ago.
‘Thaddeus told me he became an apprentice to a lady with excellent culinary skills. He also said she was
glorious.
‘Wait a minute. That reminds me. The chef at Jade Horizon Hotel served us food every time I went there with Bonnie. He was very respectful toward her, too.
‘Could it be…?‘
At the thought of that, he quickly opened the car door and got out. Once he opened the villa door, he saw
a pair of male leather shoes at the entrance.
Ged was surprised to see it. “Do you think Bonnie wanted to keep you away because she’s seeing someone behind your back?”

As soon as he said it, he covered his mouth and looked at his best friend. “Um… I’m just thinking out loud, Ivor. Perhaps Benedict is here. As for the car…”
Before he could finish, Ivor had already entered the living room. He heard a commotion in the kitchen and
dashed over.
He was approaching the door when he heard a man’s voice.
“seriously have no idea how to cut the vegetables, master. Could you take my hand and show me how
it’s done?”
‘Wait a minute. That voice…‘
Ged’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at Ivor.
The latter said, “Perhaps I should show you how it’s done. I’ll even hold your hand.”
Thaddeus was stunned when he heard the voice. Then, he turned around sharply and finally saw his
childhood friend. He stared at Ivor so hard that his eyes would pop out.
“I–Ivor? What are you doing here?”
Squinting, Ivor said blankly, “That’s my line. What are you doing in my fiancé’s place?”
“What?! She’s your… You guys are… Is she the fiancee your grandpa made you get engaged to?!”
Thaddeus’s jaw dropped as he repeatedly shifted his shocked gaze between Bonnie and Ivor.
Instead of answering him, Ivor walked over to her side. Reaching out, he pulled her into his embrace and showed her his childhood friend, the boss, around here.
Ged walked over to Thaddeus and held him by the shoulder. He spoke as if he weren’t part of the problem, “What a good show! It turns out your master is Ivor’s fiancé. That means Ivor is your master, by extension, too. Hahaha!”
