“I didn’t know how to cook in the past, but I took it up. Now, I can cook,” Stefan said.


    “You actually took lessons for this? You sure have a lot of time on your hands.”


    “How could you say that? Cooking for someone you like brings a lot of joy. I thought you’d have


    known…” Stefan smiled vaguely. “I heard you never even cooked before marrying me. Didn’t you train


    yourself to be a good cook because of me?”


    “Who said that? It’s not true,” Renee refuted unconvincingly.


    If she imed to be the kind who wouldn’t even enter the kitchen, nobody would dare to question her.


    She was very different from ordinary girls from a very young age. She didn’t like dolls, pretty dresses,


    and ying with dollhouses. Most of all, she disliked going into the kitchen. On the contrary, she


    enjoyed fighting, guns, coding, and physical chemistry.


    If it weren’t for her attempt to be a ‘qualified’ wife in the Hunt family, she would never have even


    stepped into the kitchen. Her only goal in life was to cook food that Stefan liked.


    Now that she recalled this, she felt she must have been under a spell. She lost herself, and it was all


    for a man!

    “I even heard that you desired my body and had impure thoughts about me!” Stefan added.


    “You’re making things up!” Renee turned around in embarrassment. “I don’t like your appearance at


    all…”


    Only then did she notice that Stefan had already walked into the kitchen. He was right behind her.


    They were barely inches apart. She only needed to look up for the top of her head to touch his


    protruding chin.


    “Are you sure you don’t like my appearance?” Stefan asked.


    Stefan’s smile grew wider. “If that’s the case, why did you keep stealing nces at me?”


    “That’s not true. It’s only a coincidence!” Renee felt hot in her cheeks. She wasn’t being very


    convincing. “I already told you that I don’t like your appearance. I like men who look like elegant


    princes, not cold and aloof like you. Stop being so self-indulgent.”


    “Renee, you’re such a coward. This wasn’t what you said to the kidsst night…” Stefan was extremely


    confident. He pinched her chin and lifted it up slightly, forcing her to look into his eyes. “Abby told me


    this morning that you fell in love with me as soon as you saw my face. How can you say you don’t like


    my appearance now?”


    “Uhm…” Renee felt very awkward. She wished she could dig a hole and hide in it.


    ‘Abby, you’re a wonderful daughter. You’re so wonderful that you’d betray your own mother. How am I


    supposed to face him now?’


    “That’s right. I’m vain, and I like handsome guys. So what?” Renee decided to go all out. She stared at


    his pretty face and admitted to what she said.


    “Does this mean you admit that you’ve desired my body for a long time?” Stefan asked.


    “Erk-hem!” Renee’s face turned red.


    She did like Stefan, but nowhere nearly to that extent.


    Although she’d sometimes fantasize about them kissing in a romantic environment, that was as far as it


    went. She wouldn’t fantasize anything beyond that.


    Seeing how Renee didn’t speak, Stefan’s smile grew even wider. “Regardless if you desire me or not,


    I’ve desired after you for a long time,” Stefan whispered in her ear.


    “You’re nuts!” Renee eximed with reddened cheeks. She pushed him away and quickly ran away.


    Stefan watched her leave. There was a look of authority on his face.


    He was like an expert hunter who confidently observed his prey falling into his trap…
