Ella’s beauty was frozen so she went to the kitchen and even before she had a snack, she looked for ice cream in the freezer. Whenever she has tantrums, an ice cream could help her. He took half a gallon of double dutch and brought it to the table.
“Aren’t you full of hotcakes and juice?” Rebecca asked Ella when she caught it spilling the ice cream.
“My head is hot right now,” he replied.
“Okay all right, I’ll leave you there. But fix yourself, oh, are you still going to lose? ” Rebecca challenged Ella because she noticed that she was discouraged. After all, who wouldn’t if the second time Damian brought another woman home.
“Who says I’m going to lose? No way, “Ella said and faced her ice cream again.
The ice cream was running low when Damian and Monique entered the kitchen at the same time. He wanted to greet Damian but he was bored with Monique’s face so he just ignored the two.
Earlier he wanted to rebuke the woman for forbidding too much ice cream for a pregnant woman but Damian hesitated because he knew Ella and every time she ate ice cream, she must have gone through something. “Where is Rebecca?” Then he asked the woman.
Ella shrugged her shoulder before answering. “Do I look lost and found corner? Maybe just there, look for it! ” He stared at Damian and refocused his attention on the food.
“Ella asked you nicely. Anyway, Monique volunteered to be the one to cook our dinner, maybe you want to help her so you can learn in the kitchen as well. ” Damian’s suggestion.
Ella smirked and glared at Damian. “I have no intention of being a cook,” he said and before he looked down, he noticed the man’s weight. Hmmmp, take care of him! But if he was annoyed with Damian, he was even more annoyed with Monique when she laughed.
“You still don’t understand why I want to cook for Damian.” Monique said simultaneously clutching Damian’s arm.
“Why don’t you enlighten me then?” She asked Monique to elaborate on her statement.
“Hmmm, that’s how it is, it’s normal for a couple for me to cook for him. You have to get engaged so that you can experience it as well, “Monique replied.
Ella raised an eyebrow and picked up the bag of icecream and threw it in the trash. “If I’m just going to fail as a cook, don’t do it.” Ella said and left the two. He heard Damian laugh but he didn’t really look back.
His will was to go out of the house to ventilate. Her sigh was steady as she sat alone in the garden. He leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
That’s why she fell asleep and it was getting dark when Ella woke up. He stretched his body and then sat down again. He also slept in the garden for about an hour but Damian didn’t even look for him. Maybe it helped Monique in the kitchen or maybe the man forgot about her.
Ella thought of leaving the house first and taking a walk for a while because she might just be crazy. Maybe top her even more and turn Monique into meat! He frowned as he entered the house and headed to his room to retrieve his bag.
He was about to leave when he met Damian on the stairs and immediately frowned when he saw that he was carrying a bag. “I’m just going somewhere for a while,” Ella said goodbye because she was already upset.
“Where?” Damian asked the woman as she said goodbye. “Won’t you get dressed? Go back upstairs and change your clothes, “Damian ordered the woman.
“What is wrong with my outfit? Ah, is it because it’s too short? What now, I’m flawless, right? “He refused to get dressed because he knew Damian didn’t want to display his body.
“Ella!” Damian’s voice rose, and loaded the woman back upstairs.
She screamed in shock when Damian suddenly carried her back to her room. “Put me down,” he said to the man, but Damian stiffened and did not listen to him. “What is your problem?” He shouted it when they entered his room.
“You’re the problem, Ella! I know you’re jealous, but is that hard to admit to me? Why can’t you tell me you don’t want Monique here? That you regret it because you forced me to hold him accountable? “Damian scolded Ella.
“Yes, I’m jealous, are you happy? I just told you to take care of him, but I didn’t tell you to put him here! ” His voice rose again, but when Damian couldn’t answer, he went out and left the man.
“We’re not done yet!” Damian called the woman but she did not listen. Damian scratched his head because he no longer knew what he was going to do. He didn’t want Ella to lose him, but he was already upset with Monique. Why did he rush into his decision!
He returned to the kitchen where Monique was busy preparing their dinner. Yes and they had dated for several years before, he had never seen it cook, and when he noticed the clutter on the counter, he wanted to scold the woman for letting their cook cook but he was worried that he might offend it. “Do you need help?” He asked Monique.
“I’m fine, Damian. Just watch TV first, and I’ll call you when it’s okay. ” Monique happily answered the man.
“Okay,” Damian replied and returned to the living room. He turned on the tv and watched the news, but his brain was not in the news. He picked up his cellphone and called Ella but she didn’t answer his call.
Thirty minutes later Monique called him and said their dinner was ready. She followed woman, and sat down as it served. “What did you cook?” He asked Monique.
“Stewed pork leg,” Monique replied.
“Hmmm it just smells, it’s delicious.” He did not bully the woman because what he said was true. He was suddenly hungry when he saw the smoky stew broth in front of him, and immediately scooped up the earlier and placed it on his plate.
“Taste the soup first,” Monique ordered.
Damian nodded and tasted the broth. “Hmmm, the mixture is just right.” Damian said and he started to eat.
“Let me cook for you from now on,” Monique promised.
“Actually, you don’t have to do that because we have a cook here.” Said Damian.
“You can even save on the maids’ salary if I cook for you,” Monique insisted.
“Do you want to tell me to terminate your cook?” He was surprised at Monique’s suggestion.
“Why not? It’s also okay that we’re just the two of us at home while we’re still building our family, “Monique said.
Damian lowered his spoon for a moment and looked at Monique. “Just the two of us? What about Ella and the other helpers? ” He wanted to confirm if his suspicion was correct.
“Damian, Ella is big. Do you think it’s good to see that until now you are still together at home eh everyone knows that he is not your real brother, “Monique explained.
Damian was silent and just stared at the woman he didn’t know very well. She had been his bride for a few years, but she didn’t notice anything strange then or she just didn’t care before. “Monique, listen. We won’t have a problem in the future if you don’t interfere with Ella, “Damian warned the woman.
