Chapter 439: Chapter 439: Carolline Ruiz’s Abilities (8)

"No need, Miss Rice, I’ll take care of the cleaning, no need to call for an hourly worker." Daisy Willow said with a warm smile.

"Don’t call me Miss Rice, my name is Celia Wade, just call me Celia like Carolline. Are you sure you can handle it? I don’t want to trouble you, especially since you just arrived. I would feel really embarrassed." Celia truly felt embarrassed, thinking it would be better to hire an hourly worker and pay them rather than relying on her friends.

"No, it’s not a problem, I’ll cook, and you guys can just sit in the living room. It won’t take too long." Daisy Willow nodding with assurance, then said to Elena, "Elena, call me Auntie."

"Oh, such a cute little Elena, classmates with Axel, huh? Just like Axel, you can call me Auntie Celia." Celia squatted down, reaching out her hand, shaking hands with Elena.

"Auntie Celia––" Elena wasn’t shy, since Celia was so warm and welcoming; she liked her, especially since Axel already knew her.

"Oh, so well-behaved, Auntie is so silly making your mom work so hard as soon as you arrive. How about this, you can come play with me, and I have many teddy bears and other toys in my room. We won’t bother your mom and Aunt Carolline, alright?"

"Okay." Elena obediently nodded and went into the room with Celia.

Carolline shook her head and first moved Daisy and Elena’s things into the room, then put on an apron and joined Daisy in the kitchen.

"Carolline, I can do it alone. You should go rest a bit." Daisy felt she could handle it by herself, and moreover, making them a hot pot dinner would relieve her guilt.

"Doing all this alone would take too long, it’s okay. I’ll help, even if it’s just being an assistant." Carolline shook her head. She knew that Celia loved children, so she felt reassured to entrust Elena to her.

"Alright," Daisy relented, nodding.

The two worked together, and quickly restored order to the messy kitchen. Carolline began washing and cutting the vegetables, while Daisy prepared chicken soup in a pressure cooker. She was also preparing ingredients like scallions, ginger, and garlic.

Although Celia didn’t know how to cook, she had been full of confidence while living alone in the beginning. She purchased a complete set of pots, pans, and kitchen items, pretty much anything supermarket had to offer.

Of course, on the few occasions when she actually tried to use them, she was quickly discouraged and began relying on take-out instead.

The two cooperated, and once the chicken soup was ready, Daisy poured it off for later use. She then prepared a pot of fragrant chicken porridge with the pressure cooker.

The delicious aroma reached Carolline, who couldn’t help but salivate, exclaiming, "If I had known earlier, I would have brought Axel! This chicken porridge smells amazing."

"..." Daisy smiled, "In the future, if Axel wants to eat, I’ll make it especially for him."

"Great, I’ll thank you on his behalf for now." Carolline didn’t bother with false modesty.

"No need to be polite." Daisy shook her head, feeling a bit relieved for being able to help Carolline.

Carolline continued prepping, as there were many dishes needed for hot pot, including washing, cutting, and arranging on plates. Fortunately, Celia’s kitchen had plenty of utensils.

Daisy started to fry the ingredients, creating a fantastic aroma. Celia had a keen sense of smell, being born in the year of the dog. From inside the room, she smelled the food and started salivating, inviting Elena to join her, "Elena, it smells so good, let’s go check the kitchen together, shall we?"

"Yeah, okay." Elena glanced at the eager Celia, reminded of her own longing when she smelled Daisy cooking in the kitchen while sitting in the living room.
