Novel & Cerita Epilogue Kitchen

Less than two days later, I was discharged from the hospital and returned home to pack my things. The moment I pushed open the door, the scene in the living room made my stomach twist. Suzanna sat on Eric’s lap while the two of them kissed. Eric’s hand slipped beneath her collar as he touched her without restraint. Even after noticing me, neither of them stopped. Eric smirked at me with clear provocation. “Shane, you are back. Perfect timing. Suzanna is hungry after her workout, so go make us dinner.”

And my darling daughter, Alice—her future would be limitless. The End

The kitchen wasn’t designed for chaos. It was sleek, the space of marble counters, dark wood cabinetry, and floor-to-ceiling windows that spilled light across the polished floor. But chaos had found its way inside anyway that too in the form of Lucian Blackwell, who was holding a whisk like it was a weapon. “Lucian,” Isla said, voice caught between amusement and despair, “you don’t stab the eggs.” He scowled at the bowl, elegant brows furrowing in concentration. “I wasn’t stabbing.”

he replied and made his way to his room. As Julia rose from her seat, she instinctively took charge of the remaining dishes, her desire to be helpful shown. She swiftly cleared the plates from the table and made her way to the kitchen, determined to wash them before Kelvin could even think of it. In the kitchen, Julia meticulously scrubbed the dishes, her mind filled with a whirlwind of thoughts. She questioned herself, wondering why she felt the need to impress Kelvin and prove her worth through household chores. The answer eluded her, buried beneath layers of uncertainty and the blossoming emotions she felt for him.

Chapter 2 — Splash Jerkface Two Weeks Ago… Kallista Hughes stood in the bustling kitchen of Brio’s Kitchen, gripping the edge of the stainless-steel counter so hard her knuckles whitened. The sharp clatter of pans, the hiss of sautéing vegetables, and the murmurs of the kitchen staff filled the air, but none of it registered. All she could hear was Chef Alden’s voice, cold and hard cutting through the noise like a shard of ice.

"Right there, gentlemen." While Levi, Cromwel, and Carter dashed towards the kitchen, I thanked her. She nodded and walked down the corridor, followed by my troops. When I walked into the kitchen, I was greeted with a delightful aroma of delicacies. Fried chicken, steak, carbonara, and freshly baked pastries are all available. My stomach groaned in appreciation as I continued to go closer to the kitchen island, taking in the delectable aromas. I was perplexed as to why my beta and gamma were still standing around the entrance, mouths open in the shape of an 'o.' I walked closer to them and noted that they were keeping an eye on the alpha daughter's back.

Chapter 38 Caleb’s POV The kitchen was a sanctuary of stainless steel and silent planning until Julian Sterling decided to turn it into an interrogation room. I was currently hunched over a marble countertop, trying to convince a batch of delicate macarons that they didn't actually want to crumble into dust. The air was thick with the scent of almond flour and the looming threat of discovery. Every time the elevator chimed, my heart did a frantic tap-dance against my ribs. Then the heavy oak doors swung open with a bang that suggested Julian had been practicing his "dramatic villain" entrance in the mirror.

The dinner was held in the intimate, quiet dining alcove of Julian’s penthouse, overlooking the vast, glittering expanse of the city—a place of light and possibility that would soon become the scene of his collapse. Julian cooked the meal himself: a simple, perfect roasted chicken and fresh asparagus, an act of domesticity that shredded Elias’s resolve. The aroma of the meal filled the room, mingling with the soft hum of the city below, creating an atmosphere that was both comforting and unsettling.

“He is just still very young acting and needs to be knocked down a peg or two sometimes.” “I can see that,” Emily said, nodding. They all walked in a quiet comfortable silence till they came to a kitchen that looked like it could feed armies. Thinking Emily realized that the kitchen probably was used to do just that. Everything was large and stainless steel. There were at least fifteen to twenty people that Emily could see moving around cooking and plating different dishes. The smells were amazing. Emily heard her stomach grumbling in appreciation. “Please tell me we are going to leave with a plate or two,” she whispered leaning into Gabriel as she watched everyone still cooking and plating

The glow in her amber eyes flickered with a hint of intrigue, and for a moment, the kitchen seemed to hold its breath in anticipation. While she immersed herself in contemplation, the rhythm of daily life outside our cocoon of revelation continued. The kitchen door swung open, and in strolled Jake, my beta, and Kate, our head chef. Their presence injected a dose of reality into our speculative bubble. Kate, with flour smudged on her apron, had evidently concluded her training with Jake.
