Xavia said, “I heard that Whitham Group has a pivotal position in Darlsbury, and the group has influence over many things. I need you to do me a favor. Can you help me to terminate my contract with Dallas Entertainment? Then, I can cook for you unconditionally.”
Lily Whitham frowned in return.
Just now, when Xavia voiced out that she needed help, Lily thought she needed help with the financial matters. Still, she never expected it to be such a trivial thing. Also, it was a matter regarding the termination of her contract with Dallas Entertainment? Maybe this woman was different from what she had imagined.
“Where is your kitchen? I can start cooking now. You can start working on my request too.”
Looking at Xavia’s simple and serious posture, Lily raised her hand mechanically and pointed in the direction of the kitchen. “Over there...”
She only recollected her senses after Xavia left.
Then, she took out her cell phone to call her father.
“Sweetie, what is it?” Ever since Lily got married to Stefan Talton, her father’s attitude had changed upside down. He would fulfill every request of her. That old man would even send gifts to her doorstep without her requesting anything.
Lily mocked him on the inside, but said to him politely on the surface, “A friend of mine wants to terminate her contract with Dallas Entertainment. Can you help her pull some strings?”
“Well, that’s a simple request. How has your health been for the last two days? Did you eat the ginseng and snow lotus that I sent over last time? Make sure you take good care of yourself and the child in your womb.”
Lily responded with a faint grunt before she ended the call.
That old man was only concerned about the child and her identity as Mrs. Talton.
About half an hour later, Xavia was done cooking.
She said, “Miss Whitham, I’m done. I have prepared a portion of vegetable porridge, hot mashed potatoes and a club sandwich. All these dishes are great for stimulating appetites and nourishing stomachs. Chairman Talton should be able to eat these.”
Lily looked at the exquisite food which was placed in the thermal box. A tiny flash of amazement flashed through her eyes. She had led a comfortable life ever since she was a child, so she never cooked in her whole life. But when she looked at how exquisite the food was, she already felt like eating them already.
Lily pursed her red lips.
Just then, her cell phone rang up from the side. She said, “My father should have completed the task. Give me a moment to pick up the phone call.”
“Sure.” Xavia stood at the side expectantly as she stared at Lily.
