It appeared as if their CEO cooked for her frequently.Could the cold and distant Stanley Batton have a soft side like this?Everyone looked at each other, as countless questions appeared in their minds. In the end, they all muted their microphones and began whispering among themselves.โDid I hear that wrongly? Does our CEO cook in his private life?
