All Chapters of His Private Chef: Chapter 201 - Chapter 207

I waited inside the kitchen until Adrian finished dealing with his mother because I was seriously fighting the urge to eavesdrop on their conversation, and it wasn’t helping that their voices kept rising.The front door slammed not long after.I walked into the living room and found Adrian sitting on the couch with his face buried in his palms. The whole confrontation had clearly taken a toll on him.Quietly, I sat beside him without interrupting, giving him time to calm down and gather his thoughts.After a while, he finally looked up at me. “I found a solution.”“A solution to what?”“To everything standing in the way of us being together.”“Okay…” I said slowly. “What do you mean?”“Your family is already halfway there. Your mom likes me. Jason likes me. Even your dad hasn’t completely rejected me. He just has reservations because of the history between our families, which honestly makes sense.”I nodded, listening carefully.“But my family…” He laughed bitterly. “They’re never goi

Once both our families accepted the relationship, everything in my life started falling beautifully into place.Adrian’s family publicly cleared up the entire engagement situation and officially denied every rumor linking him romantically to Zoey. It later came out that Zoey’s parents had been drowning financially for a while, which explained why they had been so desperate to tie her permanently to Adrian.The scandal became messy online for a few days before people eventually moved on to the next thing to gossip about.Thankfully, Adrian handled the public narrative perfectly.Things also changed for good within the Valecrest family after everything that happened. Adrian even admitted that my parents had influenced his parents in ways he was genuinely grateful for.“They’re actually trying now,” he told me one evening while we lay in bed together. “It feels strange finally getting the whole parent experience at this age, but I guess better late than never.”I understood exactly what

After spending days trying to separate Benita from Uncle Jason only for her to ignore every warning I gave, I finally gave up.At some point, I realized there was no point forcing it anymore. Benita was going to keep seeing him regardless of what I said, and maybe the only way she would truly understand why I had been so against it was by experiencing Uncle Jason for herself.Still, a tiny part of me secretly prayed that if Uncle Jason eventually broke her heart, it wouldn’t destroy her too badly.For what Adrian did helping Uncle Jason arrange that lunch date behind my back, I tried staying angry, but Adrian made it impossible.He kept showing up at my parents’ house carrying gifts and smiles until my irritation slowly disappeared on its own. Besides, I couldn’t even afford to stay mad for long because we were busy preparing for our vacation together.A few days before the trip, Mom was helping me pack even though Adrian specifically warned me not to bring too much.“Mom, it’s enough

Benita finally moved to the States and into our house.She slotted into the family so naturally that within weeks it felt like she had always been there. It felt like I had gained a sister while my parents gained another daughter.I noticed there was still something going on between her and Uncle Jason, but all my energy was on Aunt Sophia and the baby. Whenever I wasn't at work or with Adrian, I was at Aunt Sophia's house bothering her constantly and speaking to her stomach like the baby could fully understand me already."You are a girl," I would say while rubbing her bump. "Do not disappoint me.""You know the baby can't hear you yet." Aunt Sophia would tease."She can feel the energy,” I replied without looking up.She always laughed and said I reminded her of Mom when she was pregnant with me because she had been just as desperate for a girl.The moment anybody mentioned the possibility of the baby being a boy I instantly became defensive before later sitting somewhere sad about
