Chapter 2055 Surprise
Gareth naturally found his way into the kitchen.
Bella was slightly taken aback.
In her mind, her cousin might not be spoiled, but he was definitely privileged.
This didn’t mean that Gareth was indulged, but rather his family had enough wealth to provide him with
everything he needed.
Therefore, it was only natural to assume that Gareth didn’t know how to do certain things, like cooking.
Gareth had never showcased that skill of his to the outside world before.
Seeing the surprised expression on Bella’s face, Elisa chuckled. “Surprised, aren’t you? There’s more
to come. Not only can he cook, but he’s also quite talented. His dishes are delicious.”
Hearing Elisa’s words, Bella became even more curious.
Thus, the matter that was initially meant to be discussed was postponed to be talked over at the dinner

table.
At that moment, Bella was more interested in seeing how Gareth was cooking. She also wondered if
she could lend a hand.
Bella walked into the kitchen and saw Gareth, wearing a somewhat adorable apron, chopping
vegetables on the cutting board.
Observing how thinly and evenly the potato was sliced, Gareth clearly possessed knife skills.
Bella clicked her tongue in amazement. “If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn’t believe
it’s true.”
Gareth simply smiled without uttering a word.
If, a long time ago, someone had told him he would learn to cook for a woman, he would have thought
that person was crazy.
After all, he had never been one to change himself for others.

However, it seemed he had indeed changed.
Watching Gareth cook was a pleasure in itself. It felt like a visual feast.
He washed, chopped, and stir-fried the vegetables, all in one smooth sequence. Not a single
movement was unnecessary.
After standing for a while, Bella began to roll up her sleeves, ready to lend a hand.
However, she was stopped by Gareth.
“No need. Just stay there. I can handle it myself.” Without lifting his head, Gareth halted Bella’s actions.
Bella paused for a moment, then asked, “What should I do now? I’m perfectly capable. I can’t just sit
there and wait for you to cook. It’ll be so embarrassing” Bella scratched her head. She truly felt
embarrassed.
Gareth said without hesitation, “How can you say there’s nothing to do? You can just stay there and
chat with Elisa. You can discuss the company’s affairs with her. Consider it as helping me. As for here, I
can manage on my own.”

Having said that, Gareth wiped his hands on his apron and promptly shooed Bella out of the kitchen..
Looking at the closed kitchen door, Bella shook her head with a smile, helplessly returned to the ward,
and began peeling fruit for Elisa.
Elisa was originally engrossed in her book. However, seeing how quickly Bella had returned, she
couldn’t help but blink in surprise, asking, “You’re done already?
Bella shook her head. “No, it’s just that my cousin wouldn’t let me help in the kitchen and kicked me
out. So, I had no choice but to ask you to take me in.
As Bella spoke, she also made a gesture of request.
Elisa was amused. “Bella’s personality has changed a lot. She has become even more unrestrained
and daring. Now, she possesses the courage to confront everything without any hesitation. That is
something that the initially submissive, gentle, and soft-hearted Bella did not possess. That is just
perfect. Sometimes, she even cracks a few jokes to liven up the atmosphere. She is visibly growing at
a rapid pace.”
