Lunch for you

Lucy knew and felt that Daniel had something he wanted but what could that be? People couldn't just be so nice to themselves without aiming for something in return especially the riches.

What Daniel wants wasn't clear to her.

Was it her body?

Her heart?

Love?

What could it be exactly?

He'd have paid her if it was her body and would have used the job he was going to offer her as a way to get her to agree to his conditions but he didn't.

Could he actually be pursuing her because he's in love with her? She shook her head, that can't be possible, she wasn't his type at all. They've not even known each other for that long. She shook her head again getting exhausted of thinking about what he wanted in return from her. If it was her body she'd gladly give that to him because she also is yearning for a man but haven't found one yet and didn't have a boyfriend. She really didn't want to offer her body in exchange for the job, so she wasn't doing that. She should forget about satisfying her needs for now and focus on what her life might turn out to be.

She let out a quiet sigh, frustrated and tired of trying to arrange the puzzle.

The three began to chit chat as they prepare to start cooking.

"Why did you think I was Daniel's girlfriend? Do I look like one?" She asked the both of them expecting an answer from either of them.

Natasha replied. "You called him by his name, none of us dared to do that even if we are away from work we don't call Master by his name"

Lucy nodded her head, understanding why. "Ohh"

She imagined being his girlfriend and laughed. It's really not possible but she wanted that.

She shook her head and recalled, he mentioned once to her that his mother makes banger and mashed potatoes whenever she's around and he loves her cooking. She decided to make that with some snacks along with it.

"So how do you find Daniel? Is he nice?" She asked as she peeled the potatoes.

They chuckled. "Master is nice in some ways, he is especially to women" Sofia spoke sounding like she knew him well. She then realized she sounded like she just insulted him. Natasha gave her a stern look to mind her tongue.

So he likes women. Could he be a womanizer?

She laughed at the thought of that. The two noticed her sudden weird reaction.

"Why laughing ma'am?" The chorused and she turned to them and forced a smile.

"Nevermind, don't mind me" she countered, still busy with the potatoes and still thinking of Daniel.

"I'll go Inform master about lunch" Natasha notified them before leaving.

When she left, Sofia led Lucy to the dinning room. It has a long table with many chairs she didn't count and the magnificent chandelier up on the high ceiling. The room was so clean, bright and beautiful. She avoided admiring the room because Sofia seems used to seeing how beautiful the room and everywhere around the mansion looks.

"So tell me do you live here?" Lucy asked arranging the dishes on the table gently. Stealing glances at Sofia who was at the other side of the table.

"No, my post doesn't need me to live here. Some do" she explained.

Lucy nodded, wondering if she needed to live in the same house as Daniel. She definitely didn't like that idea, she wanted her sweet free life sometimes and not to stay in this big house doing nothing when he isn't home. It would be damn boring. She thought.

"And Natasha?" She asked.

"Same"

Lucy nodded again and turned to see Daniel descending the stairs. She admired his beauty as he came closer. He's so perfect and hot. She thought. She was lost in his beauty not realizing when he stood right in front of her.

He snapped his fingers. "Lucy, you are the cook you don't have to serve me" he spoke with their gazes locked. Her smiley face again reviewed her true expression.

He touched her cheek and she lowered her gaze to see he was in black, looking more attractive in it. She removed his hand from her cheek. "Why?" She asked.

He shrugged and then signalled to the maid to leave. Lucy knew he did that. He studied her as she serves him.

"Will I be living here?" She asked taking a seat.

"Do you want to?" He asked already seated.

"No I don't.... Nah"

"You don't want live with me?"

She pressed her lips as she watched him lean closer and shook her head.

He stared at her for a while before leaning backwards.

"You wanna leave me here all alone" he made up that sad tone but she didn't allow it to affect her.

"I guess you have to be alone" she uttered and then gestured for him to eat. She stood up to get him the jug and poured water in his glass.

"So I made banger and mashed potatoes, you once told me your mom cooks that for you so I did" she explained her gaze on the dishes but could feel his on her.

After serving, he took her hand and pulled her close to him, making her sit on his laps.

She offered a questioning look Instead of a gasp with a shocked expression.

"Feed me my new cook" he said simply, grinning.

"A request or an order?" She asked.

He gave her an upside down smile as if wondering what his answer should be.

"Let's just say both"

"Okay, you are the boss, even if it was an order I'd have to feed you" she picked up the cutleries, her mood changed causing confusion to Daniel.

She fed him and when it was night, he insisted to drive her home and he did. Knowing where her small home is.

"Good night" she greeted when she came down from his car. She adjusted her dress and turned around to see him out of his car, leaning on the opened car door.

"Good night my princess. Will be expecting you early tomorrow at my house" he uttered with a smile that doesn't look sincere.

She gave him an assuring look before taking steps away from his car.

"Aren't you going to kiss or hug your prince?"

"Daniel, you need to rest. Good night" she said as if knowing he was going to utter another word when she didn't reply. She eventually left his sight.

The handsome man sighed, knowing it was an hard task to have her in his arms. To his surprise, it was his first time so interested in a woman and a poor low class one for that matter. He climbed in his car and drove off.

It's been a week since she had been working with Daniel and he has been becoming so much more confusing to her day by day.

His compliments on the dishes she makes, asking her to feed him while sitting on his lap. She does that when he isn't in a hurry to leave. He was being so nice and caring to her that makes others thinks they might be hiding their relationship from everyone.

Lucy also had become close to almost every workers at his house and sometimes they find her as a saviour because ever since she had been around, Daniel was a little nice to them. He sometimes listens to what she suggested. Strange...
