Chapter 707
“My, what a handsome young man! Please, come in!”
Edith came to the door to greet their guest. Seeing Emmanuel’s appearance,
she was quite pleased and enthusiastically said, “Juan often praises you in
front of me, saying that your medical skills are the best in the hospital! I didn’t
expect you to be so young. If Rhea could be friends with you, she’d surely
benefit greatly in the future!”
Emmanuel was a bit embarrassed, “Mrs. Gomez, you flatter me!”
In the kitchen, Rhea was almost nauseous listening to her parents’ words!
Wasn’t Emmanuel the best doctor at Beacon Hospital before? Who the hell is
this guy?
“Hmph, let’s see what you look like!”
Rhea was also a bit curious. She opened the door a crack and sneakily
peeked into the living room only to be stupefied, frozen on the spot…
What’s going on? How could it be Emmanuel?!
Even if she had ten brains, she couldn’t figure it out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDidn’t Dad say he was introducing a doctor from the hospital to me?
Emmanuel is no longer a doctor at Beacon Hospital, and Dad knows he’s
married, so why is he setting me up on a blind date with Emmanuel?!
She felt like she was losing her mind…
“Shoot. What do I do?!”
Rhea quickly closed the door and paced in the kitchen.
She had no idea that it was Emmanuel who was coming, and she
deliberately made every dish into a culinary disaster. The scene of
Emmanuel eating it later would be quite a spectacle…
Ugh! Just thinking about it made her want to hang herself!
In the living room, Emmanuel’s ears were sharp enough to hear the sound of
the kitchen door closing. He asked, “Is Rhea busy in the kitchen?”
“Haha, yes!” Juan laughed heartily. “I’ve said many times that when you come
to my house, you must taste our delicious food. Rhea wouldn’t dare to be
careless!”
“Mr. Gomez, you’re too kind. It seems that I’m in for a treat today!” Emmanuel
responded politely, standing up to go into the kitchen to help serve the food.
“Oh dear, you’re a guest. How can we let you do these things? Please sit
down. We can manage.” Edith quickly stopped Emmanuel.
Emmanuel, however, responded with an approachable demeanor, “I cook at
home as well, Mrs. Gomez. Besides, you’re our elders. It’s only right that we
young ones handle the work!”
“Haha, alright! Truly a man with both talent and character!” Juan gave
Emmanuel a thumbs-up.
He had long admired this young man, Emmanuel. It was just a pity that he
discovered him too late. If he had realized it earlier, how great would it be to
marry his daughter to him?
Click.
Emmanuel pushed the kitchen door open and walked in.
“Ah! What are you doing?!” Rhea, who was holding two plates of food, ready
to “destroy the evidence,” was startled and jumped.
Emmanuel was also taken aback by her reaction. Why did it feeNike she
wasn’t cooking but taking a bath and he suddenly barged in?
“Rhea, I came to see if the dishes are ready.” After recovering from his

surprise, he started to approach.
“No! They’re not ready! Get out quickly!” Rhea quickly turned around, shielding
the plates as if protecting a treasure.
Emmanuel was puzzled. She was quite normal except for blushing easily the
last time I saw her. Why is she acting so strange today? Doesn’t she use to
welcome my visits? She was so enthusiastic before.
“Aren’t these all ready?” Emmanuel didn’t try to grab the plates she was
holding but instead walked toward the other dishes in the kitchen.
It had to be said that Rhea’s cooking skills were truly impressive. Although she
deliberately messed with the flavors, the appearance and aroma of her
dishes were top-notch.
Of course, Rhea knew in her heart that if she didn’t make the food look good,
no one would even try to eat them. How could she play her little trick then?
However, she never dreamed that the one who would finally come to her
house would be her crush.
“Ah, don’t touch that!” Seeing Emmanuel about to take the dishes out, Rhea
screamed in panic once again.
