The billionaire's only desire

"It is incredible how much exposure your cooking videos are getting. And you have just received an invitation from Food Network. They want you to be a contestant on one of their daytime programs." Laura babbled to Maya.

"This is huge!" Laura paused. Her hand was planted on her hips. "Are you listening to me, Maya?"

"Huh," Maya has been staring at her phone all this time, her thoughts muddled over one call she needs to make.

"What did I say?" Laura gave her a hard look.

Maya looked at her absent-mindedly. "Uh, you mentioned the Food Network."

Laura shook her head. "You have been acting strangely since the night you returned from the gala party. What is going on with you?"

"Nothing. My sous chef job is taking its toll on me. Don't worry I'm fine." Maya shoots Laura with a fake smile to make her lie more convincing.
