Chapter 654
Vermont said with a straight face, "Of course, Corbin told me. You never let me see it, so how would I know what you made
otherwise?"
From what Felicity heard, she knew it was Corbin who said it. She humbly asked him immediately, "What else did Dr. Steven
say?"
Vermont continued with a straight face. "The other stuff was fine. He doesn't like to eat sweet stuff, and he isn't that good with
food that's too spicy."
Felicity heard this, and her face immediately fell. "Why didn't you say this earlier? I made jerk chicken today, so it might be
slightly spicy."
'Jerk chicken?' Vermont thought. His eyes brightened slightly, and he cleared his throat. "If it's slightly spicy, it should be fine. A
little spice can stimulate your appetite."
Felicity sighed in relief and asked another question. "You've delivered food for a few days. Did Dr. Steven comment on anything?
Is it delicious or disgusting? You can tell me, and I'll improve them next time." i
Vermont saw her earnest expression and felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart. He helped Keegan rent unit 902 for ease to
observe Stella's movements. It was mainly to keep a close eye on Trevor. Hence he stayed here.
When Vermont got off work a few days ago, he met Felicity. She was holding numerous bags of all sizes filled with ingredients
while rushing home. Since the day he had tried Felicity's cooking last time, he constantly thought of that meal. Keegan had been
busy with company affairs these few days, so he was not free to come over. He could never find a chance to crash meals at their
house.
Hence, when he ran into Felicity carrying her ingredients, he immediately chased after her. He then gallantly helped her carry her
stuff. Felicity was very defensive against him and would not even let him touch her things. So, he had to get information from her
by her side. The lass had a sharp tongue but a tiny brain. With a few words, he got the information from her. It turned out that
she was buying so many ingredients to make something tasty for Corbin.
Vermont had other plans, so he instantly volunteered himself. "I'll help you deliver them."
"You?" Felicity obviously did not trust him. "You would be so kind as to help me?"
Vermont then said, "We have, as they say, had relations before. I wouldn't go back on my word when I say I'd help you pursue
Corbin Steven. You're a lady, but you're still not his girlfriend. It would be fine if things worked out between you and Corbin and
you delivered food daily to him. What if Corbin isn't willing when in front of so many people? It wouldn't be nice of him to refuse
you. Or he might outright reject you. As you've said, a lady doesn't have thick skin, so how would you be able to go to their
hospital in the future?"
Vermont continued, "If you pass them to me, that'd be different. I have great relations with Corbin. I could talk you up when I'm
with him. As time goes by, he might slowly be able to accept you. As the saying goes, the way to a man's heart is through his
stomach.
"As for you, you just need to concentrate on cooking food and researching ways to conquer his stomach while you leave the
things regarding delivering food to me. I promise I'll finish the task," he said.
Felicity gave it some thought and seemed to think that it made some sense. Dr. Steven was quite a gentle person. If he did not
like her, he would not say it to her face since her pursuit was too relentless. Leaving this up to Stinky Cucumber might let her
scout some information regarding Dr. Steven's feelings about her.
Hence, Vermont and Felicity instantly hit it off. Every day, she would make meals and pass them to Vermont. After Vermont took
them away, he would return the washed lunch box the same night. Today, she had some affairs and had to make a trip to the
company. Hence, she hitched a ride in Vermont's car.
"I'm asking you something." Felicity interrupted his thoughts. "What did Dr. Steven say?"
Vermont regained his senses. "Just like I said. It's too sweet and spicy. He didn't talk about anything else."
"Oh." Felicity thought for a moment before saying, "Ask him today what he wants to eat tomorrow. I have my day off tomorrow, so
I'll be able to make a few more dishes."
After saying this, she paused briefly before continuing, "Seeing that you've helped me deliver meals to Dr. Steven, you can
choose a dish as a reward for yourself."
Vermont suppressed the feeling of discomfort in his heart. He turned his steering wheel and reverted to his cynical self. "You
would cook anything?"
Felicity immediately halted his thoughts on being demanding warily." Anything too complicated would not be acceptable. They
take up too much time. Only home-cooked dishes are acceptable."
"Teriyaki then. That wouldn't be difficult, right?"
