Chapter 103 The One to Thank Is Not Him.
In preparation for entertaining Miles that evening, Rose returned to Zenwood Gardens early to prepare dinner. As soon as she entered, she was greeted by a strong aroma of food.
The dining table was filled with dishes that she loved, both visually appealing and delicious.
“This…”
She began to wonder if she had walked into the wrong house. Before she could make her exit to confirm, her star escort husband emerged from the kitchen.
“You’re back early today. Just in time for the last dish. Wash your hands, and we can have dinner,” Jonathan said while carrying a plate of salad.
He was wearing an apron, resembling a family cook. His handsome face was undeniably charming even In this attire, which added a touch of authenticity to his presence.
Rose was briefly stunned.
She scanned the table with amazement and asked, “Did you make this?”
“Why don’t you taste it and see if it suits your palate?”
It wasn’t a problem for her to think he had made the dishes.
“Wow… I didn’t expect you to be so skilled. You’re good–looking, and you can cook. You’re truly a perfect man. Whoever marries you is so lucky!” Rose praised him enthusiastically, laying the groundwork for her upcoming revelation about the inviting guest.
The corners of Jonathan’s lips curled up. Wasn’t she the lucky one? He placed the dishes on the dining table and took off his apron as he prepared to have dinner with Rose.
As soon as he touched his apron, Rose hurried over.
“Hubby, you’ve worked hard. Let me do it for you.”
She took off the apron for him and even massaged his shoulder. Jonathan was pleased to be called ”
hubby“.
Noticing him in a good mood, Rose said, “Today, someone helped me immensely. If it weren’t for him, the company would still be in chaos and unable to function. So, I want to express my gratitude to him.”
Jonathan frowned, thinking she was going to thank him. Zac had done something right. If Rose could ease her misunderstanding of “Mr. Finch“, that would be ideal.
“The person who helped you must be a great person,” he remarked.
“Yes, a truly great person! We didn’t know each other before, but he reached out to help several times. It’s only fair to express my gratitude, right?”
Jonathan’s face displayed a hint of awkwardness. She remembered the times he had extended a helping hand to her.
She was even contemplating expressing her gratitude to him, which showed her sense of conscience.
“How do you want to express your gratitude?” he asked as he gazed at her with anticipation.

Since he was asking this; did it mean he wouldn’t object to her inviting Miles to their home for dinner?” How about inviting him to have dinner?”
“That’ll be good.”
However, wasn’t it a bit risky to reveal his identity as “Mr. Finch” before capturing his heart?
While he was pondering this, Rose’s eyes lit up as she said, ‘I knew you would understand. I was planning to cook a meal myself, but it seems you’ve already prepared everything. Look at the time; he should be arriving soon.”
She took out her phone and sent a text message to Miles, who quickly replied, “I’ll be there in ten minutes.”
“The timing is perfect.”
Rose immediately began preparing to welcome her esteemed guest, Jonathan watched her busy figure and felt a growing unease. What did she mean by arriving soon?
In haste, he quickly sent a message to Finley to inquire if Rose had invited anyone over today.
Finley soon replied, “No. Mr. Finch, the person we sent to Celeste Jewels only made it halfway through the interview process. Another group of people also applied for jobs there.
“I intended to report to you immediately, but you mentioned that you had important matters today and didn’t want to be disturbed… Mr. Finch…”
Jonathan didn’t pay much attention to what Finley had said next. The person Rose wanted to thank was not him. She was planning to invite someone else over for dinner.
Fury surged within him as he coldly questioned, “Who?”
