Sebastian calmly said, "Alright, do it tomorrow." This girl sure knew how to go with the flow, even buttering up the people around him just to cook a meal.
But when they got hthat night, he found out that Stephanie was like a siren.
Not only could she tMartin, but even Judith's gaze beca lot softer when looking at her... If a stranger was present, they would really think Stephanie was Judith's own daughter.
"Steph, the boss is back," Judith hurriedly informed Stephanie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStephanie rushed out of the kitchen, saying, "Silver Fox, you're back!" Sebastian gave a slight nod, "Is dinner ready?" "It's ready, just wait a moment as I serve the soup first. Having soup before dinner is good for you, my mom says." Said Stephanie.
"Steph, I can serve it. You go rest." Said Judith.
"Oh, Judith, you've already done so much for me. It's just the dishes. I can do it." Said Stephanie.
"Steph is really well-behaved, diligent and sensible, and pretty too." Said Judith.
"Oh, Judith, you're makingblush with your compliments..." Said Stephanie. The conversation between the two could be heard coming from the kitchen. Martin grinned, "Ms. Bishop seems to get along pretty well with my mom." Sebastian responded coolly, "Judith has a good temper." "My mom, with a good temper? You don't really know, but my cousin always gets scolded by her." Said Martin. Was Martin saying that Stephanie was well-behaved? Where was she well-behaved? She was more like a cunning little fox! Dinner was lively, with both Martin and Judith continuously complimenting Stephanie.
It made Stephanie blush, winking shyly at Sebastian.
Sebastian raised an eyebrow, not saying a word.
Stephanie's homemade cooking was indeed excellent, and the stewed meat soup was to his liking.
After dinner, Stephanie helped Judith clean up the table, carefully picking out the meat leftovers from the dishes. She gathered the leftovers and went to find Cooper.
When they first arrived, Cooper chased her for a while, but it was Judith's appearance that finally put Cooper away.
Stephanie reckoned that it was not a good idea to always be frightened by a big dog, especially since she would be coming back on weekends.
Might as well use the meat to appease the dog and at least let it recognize her.
As she arrived at the dog cage, she saw Sebastian putting dog food into Cooper's bowl.
Stephanie couldn't help but lower her head to look at the meat in her hands, and with a bit of uncertainty, she approached and asked, "Silver Fox... does Cooper only eat dog food?" Sebastian replied casually, "What else would a dog eat if not dog food?" "Meat?" Answered Stephanie.

plate in her hand, and looked at Cooper Apparently enticed by the smell of meat, Cooper stopped eating his dog food and looked this way. "Try feeding him a piece." Said Sebastian.
"Uh, I'm a little scared. It won't attack me, will it?" Said Stephanie.
"You're even afraid when it's in a cage? Stephanie, youare timid, arent' you?" Said Sebastian.
"If it's my dog, I'm its master, so of course I'm not afraid. Byt we've only met twice, still Strangers!" Said Stephanie. "Next tyou come, tell Judith to keep the dog locked up." Said Sebastian.
"No, if it gets locked up every tcome, it'll definitely hate me! I'd better just try to please it, and we'll get F familiar with each other over time..." Said Stephanie. So now Stephanie had to please not only his subordinates but also his dog? With a smile on his lips, Sebastian asked, "Stephanie, what exactly are you trying to do?" "Huh? What did I do?" Said Stephanie.
"Win over Judith? Invite Martin for dinner? And now trying to win over my dog?" Said Sebastian.
