Reborn Before The Divorce

“Nydia, it’s like this. We thought this restaurant was owned by someone else, so we came here to eat. We didn’t expect it to be owned by you,” explained Albi.

“Do you want to come to my house?” Nydia invited them. Albi was her respected elder, and they could go to her house after this unexpected incident tonight.

“Dad, let’s go. I still have a lot of questions to ask,” Cuthbert said.

Albi also had questions, so he agreed.

Nydia took them to her house.

“Jesse, I met Mr. Cannon and brought them back to sit for a while,” she explained to Jesse when she saw him at home. “Mr. Cannon, do you want some tea?”

“Yes, black tea, so I can sleep better at night.”

Jesse asked the butler to make tea.

“Jesse, this is my son Cuthbert, and this is Darius, Cuthbert’s good friend and a child I watched grow up.”

Darius nodded at Jesse. “Hello, Mr. Pascall.”

“Darius, I know you’re very famous in the financial world,” Jesse said.

“You know Darius? If you have some spare money, you can let him take care of it. He’s good at managing finances,” Albi said.

Jesse nodded but didn’t continue the topic.

Then, two children popped out, and Molly ran out with her short legs. “Mommy, Daddy, we have guests!”

“This is Grandpa Albi, this is Uncle Cuthbert, and this is Uncle Darius,” Nydia introduced Molly to them.

Molly immediately sweet-talked and called them one by one.

“What a well-behaved child. She’s also very pretty, like you, Nydia,” Albi, who loves children at his age, looked at his own son and felt even more disgusted.

Molly had already approached Darius. “Uncle Darius, you’re so handsome.”

Darius suddenly felt embarrassed, but unfortunately, he didn’t have the habit of carrying candy with him. Otherwise, he could have taken out two candies for Molly. Who could resist such a cute little girl?

“Mommy, Daddy, you don’t have to worry about me while you talk about business. I won’t interrupt,” Molly turned her head and said to Darius. “Uncle Darius, can you hold me?”

Jesse remembered Molly’s attitude towards Zane. Molly just liked handsome guys.

Meanwhile, Cuthbert touched his face. “Am I not handsome?”

Molly smiled and said, “You are also handsome, but not the type I like. I like someone like Uncle Darius.”

Darius picked her up and let her sit on his lap.

He wanted a daughter.

“We still need to explain our previous behavior,” said Albi, getting down to business. “Nydia, the dish you made was familiar to us. You should know my younger brother, Alfie, right?”

“I do! Most chefs know Chef Cannon,” Nydia replied.

“We suspected that this restaurant was owned by Alfie when we ate your dish, because it tasted like his cooking. We didn’t expect it to be you.”

Nydia was surprised. “Are you saying that my cooking is like Chef Cannon’s?”

“Yes, so I want to ask who you learned your cooking from.”

“I actually don’t know who I learned from, because he wouldn’t tell me his name. But I have his contact information. I can let him know and see if he’s willing to reveal his identity.”

Upon hearing this, Albi chuckled.

“Mr. Cannon?” Nydia felt embarrassed by his laughter.

“I’m not laughing at you. That’s definitely Alfie’s style. Don’t ask any more questions. I’ll call him directly.”

Albi immediately made a video call to Alfie.

“Hey, big brother. What’s up?” When Alfie’s voice came through, Nydia was surprised. It was her master’s voice.

“Did you take on an apprentice?”

“What happened? Did you guys discover my apprentice?”

Albi turned the phone towards Nydia, and Nydia saw the familiar face.

“Hi, master.” She was embarrassed. She never expected her master to be the famous Alfie!

“My apprentice, how did you get discovered? But it’s normal. They are too familiar with the taste and style of my cooking.”

Alfie didn’t seem to mind being discovered.

“Big brother, this is my apprentice. You guys have to look after her and not let anyone bully her!”

“Got it. When are you coming back?”

“Oh, someone’s calling me. Gotta go. Bye, big brother!” Alfie hung up the video call.

Albi’s face turned black!

“Mr. Cannon, I won’t let my master feel disgraced.”

Nydia didn’t know what to say. She was stunned that her master was Alfie. She thought he was strange, acted odd, and spoke bluntly, always criticizing her, yet teaching her a lot.

In the end, he told her, “I’m afraid you’ll use my name to deceive others, so I won’t tell you who I am!”

“Forget about losing reputation. He lost his own reputation. Don’t worry about him. Just focus on doing your best,” Albi said.

“It’s getting late. We should go now,” Cuthbert spoke up. “Since you’re my nephew’s apprentice, we’ll take care of you from now on. You’re now a member of our the Cannon family. If you need anything, just let us know. And let’s connect on Whatsapp first.”

Nydia and Cuthbert have added each other on Whatsapp. Jesse’s face turned a bit pale.

“Mummy, you and Uncle Darius should also add Whatsapp,” Molly said to Nydia.

Nydia was surprised.

“That way, when I want to contact Uncle Darius, Mummy can contact him. Is that okay, Uncle Darius?” She shook Darius’ arm with a sweet voice.

Who can refuse this?

Darius and Nydia added Whatsapp, and Jesse’s face turned even paler.

After sending them away, Nydia couldn’t help but ask Molly, “Molly, why do you like Uncle Darius instead of Mr. Cannon?”

“Uncle Darius looks very gentle. I like gentlemen.”

Jesse felt insulted!

“Okay, let’s go to bed now.”

After letting Molly go to bed, Nydia quickly took a shower because the fumes of the day made her uncomfortable.

While she was showering, Jesse was taking a medicated bath. However, he realized a problem. The medicated bath bag Nydia gave him was running out, which meant that he had to ask Nydia for more if he wanted to continue.

Nydia came to Jesse’s room after taking a shower.

“I’ll massage your legs.”

Jesse didn’t refuse as he enjoyed the process of Nydia massaging him.

However, when Nydia touched Jesse’s leg, she froze and asked, “What did you do?” Her tone and expression were both shocked and scared, making Jesse stunned and subconsciously guilty.

“Nothing. What’s wrong with my leg?” he asked.

Nydia realized that her reaction was too strong and immediately adjusted her emotions. “I feel like your leg feels different. Did you lift something heavy?”

Jesse’s heart skipped a beat. She could tell from touching his leg?

But he didn’t show it on his face. “No.”

Nydia frowned. It was impossible. The situation clearly indicated that he was carrying something heavy.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind. “Did you carry me?”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
