Chapter 446
Mia’s culinary skills were being questioned and despised. Unable to swallow the humiliation, she began
a culinary crusade to redeem her tarnished reputation.
Her family forbade her from entering the kitchen, but they failed to restrain Mia, who found great joy
and amusement in the kitchen every afternoon. Soon, one by one, they started calling Andre, pleading
him to find a solution and curb his wife’s culinary antics.
Andre pondered a bit. “Just give her whatever seasoning she asks for.”
Everyone was speechless. “Aren’t you going to do something?”
Naomi, seeing a pregnant woman spending all day in the kitchen, started to worry. She tried to
persuade Mia to join her for prenatal exercises, but Mia simply told Naomi that Naomi could use some
exercise.
Naomi also privately spoke to Andre, “After all, the kitchen is a dangerous place, with potential hazards
like water, fire, electricity, and knives. Mia listens to you the most. Why not suggest her to try a different
hobby?”
Andre said, “Messing around in the kitchen is better than causing trouble outside. She knows when she
shouldn’t be in the kitchen and would run away at the drop of a hat. Plus, she’s currently smitten with
cooking. If I kill her passion now, she might get upset and go back to her parents’ house, and I’d have
to coax her again.”
Naomi fell silent. That did seem to make sense.
Andre added, “In a while, Leo and Molly will be back to school, so she’ll be alone at home. If she wants
to cook as a pastime, let her be.”
With her husband’s protection, no matter how many people wanted to keep her out of the kitchen, no
one dared to say a word to Mia.
Backed by a powerful supporter, Mia, pregnant and empowered, ruled the roost. No one could dampen
Mia’s enthusiasm for cooking!
Andre’s indulgence towards his little wife eventually backfired. At 10:30 AM, his little wife arrived with a
lunchbox, announcing the start of his lunch break. “Honey, this is a love-filled lunch I made just for you.
Try it and tell me if it’s good.”
Andre glanced at his watch, and cleared his throat slightly. “Darling, isn’t it a bit early for lunch?”
Mia said, “Not really. If you round up, it’s almost 11.”
Andre was frustrated but dared not show it. Since Mia had made it herself, Andre couldn’t disappoint
her. He thought his wife’s “love-filled lunch” would at least have a heart-shaped fried egg, or perhaps a
heart drawn with ketchup? © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
However, Andre was shocked to see the content in the lunchbox. What was this brown rice? Why was
there soup in the rice? Where were the veggies? Was he expected to just eat rice?
Staring at it, Andre was a bit hesitant.
Yet Mia was eagerly waiting for her husband to taste the lunch she had prepared with love.
“Mia, why is the rice brown?”
“I added sauce to it.”
Andre asked, “And the veggies?”
Mia replied, “Why do you need veggies when you have sauce?”
Andre was speechless.
Mia happily said, “This is my own creation.”
Andre suddenly felt like a leader, questioning his wife as if she was a subordinate. He prodded the rice
with his spoon. Not a single vegetable was in sight. “There must be a reason for this innovation. Why
would you create a dish like this?”
When it came to the reason, Mia had a lengthy explanation. “Honey, do you see how busy everyone is
at work these days? They don’t have time to cook. Some people even skip meals due to lack of time,
leading to stomach problems. The convenience meal I’ve created involves just steaming the rice,
adding some sauce for flavor, and it’s ready to eat once cooked. No need to wash or cook vegetables.
That’s wasting time. It’s simple, convenient, quick, and saves time.”
After explaining, she felt incredibly smart.
At that moment, Andre finally felt his wife was normal again. The saying “pregnancy makes you stupid”
was proving true on her.
“Mia, if they need to cook for themselves, what’s the use of the canteen at my company?”
Mia said, "Right, they could just buy food."
She added, “It seems my idea needs some improvement. Honey, you must try it and tell me if it’s
good.”
Looking at the unappetizing rice with an unidentified soup, Andre finally decided to give it a try. He took
a bite. Well, it was very salty.
“Honey, how is it?” Mia was still eagerly awaiting her husband’s feedback.
After tasting it, Andre swallowed. “Pros: It’s cooked.”
Mia was happily waiting for her husband to compliment her next. Then Andre didn’t say another word.
The office fell into an odd silence.
Mia blinked. “That’s it?”
Andre, not wanting to dampen his wife’s enthusiasm, looked down at the lunch that was honestly too
hard to compliment and said, “It’s innovative, creative.”
Andre racked his brains. He had never wasted so many brain cells even while strategizing for business.
“It’s like a piece of art, suitable for display and admiration, not really for eating.”
Mia was confused. What did he mean?
Andre continued to compliment, “If it were the olden days, you could sell it for a good price.” After all,
sauce and rice were expensive back then.
Mia was getting more and more confused. “Honey, you’re speaking something I don’t understand.”
Andre said, “I’m complimenting you.”
“Oh, are there any cons?” Mia asked again.
Andre, now armed with the survival skills of a married man, promptly responded, “None!”
Mia immediately smiled. “Wow, really? In that case, honey, you must finish it all.”
Andre had successfully set a trap for himself.
Looking at the salty rice meal, Andre reluctantly picked up his spoon.
“Hubby, I didn’t even get any. I save it all for you.”
Before Alice could ask any questions, Andre quickly hung up the call. New chapter avаilable oո

Mia, heavily pregnant, entered the office with her husband’s water glass. “Honey, here’s your water.”
As soon as she placed the water glass on the table, Alice knocked and entered. She saw the lunchbox
on the CEO’s desk.
Andre gave Alice a meaningful look, and she nodded in understanding. “Mrs. Cedillo, what brings you
here today?”
Mia turned to look at Alice. “I’m here to deliver a love-filled lunch I made for my husband.”
Alice whisked away the supervisor, Mia, saving her boss’s life in the process.
After she left, Andre dropped his spoon, depleted of energy. Who would know that a meal prepared by
his young wife could defeat him?
