Chapter 658: Chapter 657: President Ashton... Are you sure you want to eat it?

"Joanna Lawrence took a bite of a marinated egg and answered, "Escargot Pasta, it’s incredibly tasty."

Elsewhere.

Ashton Heath, who was still waiting for Cody Aberton to bring back the takeout, saw the message Joanna had sent. In a split second, he called Cody.

"Hello, President Ashton."

"Cancel the previous takeout order, now go buy some Escargot Pasta, I’m having Escargot Pasta for lunch today."

If his wife said it’s super delicious, then it surely was delicious.

On the smartphone, it was unclear whether Cody Aberton hadn’t heard him clearly or was surprised, he didn’t respond for a while.

Just as Ashton’s patience was wearing thin, Cody’s trembling voice resonated, "President Ashton, did you just say...you want to eat Escargot Pasta?"

"Is there a problem? Don’t tell me you can’t find it." Ashton’s voice dropped a pitch, indicating evident displeasure.

"Of course not," Cody hastily replied, "Just, President Ashton, are you sure you want to eat Escargot Pasta? Do you know what that is?"

"What about it?"

"Well, it’s just that its flavor might be a bit strange, President Ashton. If you’ve never eaten it before, I fear...you might not like it. And, it will leave an unusual smell in your office for a prolonged period. President Ashton... Are you really sure you want to eat it?"

Half an hour later.

Cody brought a bag of Escargot Pasta back.

He knocked on the door, and upon receiving permission, he walked in.

Upon entering, he saw his boss engrossed with his phone, staring at the screen intently.

At first glance... he was chatting with someone.

As for the person he was chatting with, it could be easily guessed.

Moreover, he speculated that the sudden and unusual demand from President Ashton to eat Escargot Pasta must have something to do with the person he was chatting with.

He has been working for President Ashton for many years now.

He’s never seen President Ashton eat Escargot Pasta before.

His boss, President Ashton, probably didn’t even know what Escargot Pasta was.

He is really trying hard to keep up with his wife’s pace.

He thought, if one day President Ashton asked him to buy blue cheese, he probably wouldn’t... be too surprised.

"President Ashton, here is the Escargot Pasta you ordered."

Cody took out the box and placed it on the desk. Just before leaving, he glanced at the Escargot Pasta on the desk, a reluctance to speak clearly showed on his face.

Should he... remind President Ashton once more?

As a qualified and responsible assistant, he felt he should offer another reminder.

Ashton looked up at him, "Whatever you want to say, just say it."

"Um, President Ashton..." Cody pointed at the box on the desk, and in a rather tactful manner, said, "The moment you open the box, you might smell a rather odd scent, I think... maybe you should..."

"Get out."

Before he could finish his sentence, Ashton Heath coldly dismissed him.

Cody: "..."

"Alright, President Ashton, I’ll leave then. If you need anything else, just let me know."

Before Cody left, he glanced one last time at the well-sealed box of Escargot Pasta.

He started to imagine what kind of expression President Ashton would make once he opens the box.

Cody had once tasted this Escargot Pasta.

The taste was nice, very tasty.

It’s just that the smell was quite strong.

Last time he cooked a bag at home, a neighbor came knocking on his door asking if he blew up the toilet bowl.

The most fatal part was, the smell lingered for a long time, even until the next day, it had not completely subsided.

Cody had initially thought President Ashton wouldn’t enjoy the taste.

And, surely he wouldn’t get used to that smell.
