Chapter 1689
Sherry turned to Caprice and announced, “Caprice, hang in there just a little longer, alright? Once the ingredients
get here, Mommy will make something nice for you to eat.”
Caprice nodded while munching her snacks.”
John raised an eyebrow and asked tauntingly, “Can you cook?”
Back then when they were living in the rented place nearly a decade ago, Sherry had only tried to cook once and
nearly burned down the kitchen in the process of doing so, which explained why that was her only episode in the
kitchen. Ever since then, John was put in charge of cooking whenever he had time.
Sherry glared at him sharply. “Keep your mouth shut, will you?”
If this man was not going to keep his mouth shut, she would kick him out!
John noticed the sharp glare in her eyes and zipped his lips. He decided to not get on her
nerves anymore.
The doorbell rang in no time, and the ingredients Sherry ordered from the supermarket had arrived. She shot a
look at John.
John took the hint and went to get the door. Shortly after that, he returned with a plastic bag filled with cooking
ingredients.

Sherry ordered authoritatively, “Put it in the kitchen.”
John did as he was told. After completing the task, he tried to offer his help, “Do you need any help?”
Sherry hissed, “No need.”
She rose and went into the kitchen.
John took Caprice who was still busily munching away and stood outside the kitchen to
observe Sherry at work.
Sherry tied an apron around her waist and rolled up the sleeves of her shirt.
She searched for some cooking guides online. All she needed to do was follow the simple
instructions.
She washed the vegetables, poured a measured amount of oil into the pan, and cranked up the heat. After that,
she cracked an egg into the pan.
Hiss!
The egg sizzled in the pan.
Sherry stared at the solution in the pan as if transfixed by it. She stared at it for what

Expected Him To Be
seemed like forever, until at one point the egg began to burn and a charred smell filled the
air.
It was only at that point that she realize that something had gone wrong. She hurriedly grabbed a spatula and tried
to pry the egg out of the pan the way one would shovel mounds of dirt from the ground and ended up flinging the
egg into the distance.
Splat!
It landed at her feet.
She nearly shrieked.
Another situation that required her immediate attention had come up. Smoke was rising from the pan. She
frantically filled a bowl with water and splashed it into the pan.
Splash!
That only made things worse as a spout of flame shot out of the pan.
She backed away in fright.
Fortunately, the fire immediately sizzled out like a magic trick. She breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced in the
direction of the kitchen entrance.
John stood calmly with Caprice in her arms.
Caprice was still biting on a couple of pieces of snack. She stared at the brilliant spectacle inside the kitchen with
her eyes wide open and her jaw dropped. She seemed baffled by what she was seeing.
Meanwhile, John seemed completely expressionless as he witnessed the disaster in the kitchen. If one looked closer,
one could see that the corner of his eyes was creased with
laughter.
He was doing his best to stifle his laughter.

John noticed her desperation and said, “Take Caprice. I’ll handle it.”
Sherry frowned.
John added, “If we wait for you to finish cooking, Caprice is probably going to fall asleep.”
There was no guarantee of the quality of the food she made either.
Sherry reluctantly put away the spatula and took off the apron before walking out, her head hung low in defeat.
John handed Caprice over and stepped into the kitchen.
He put on the apron and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, imitating what Sherry had just done. He picked up the egg
from the floor, evidence of Sherry’s ineptitude in the kitchen, and threw it into the trashcan. Then, he cleaned the
pan before thoroughly cleaning the
ingredients again.
He filled two pots of water and set them to boil while he prepared the meat.
After all the ingredients were ready, he turned on the stove. There were many complicated steps involved, but his
approach was very methodical and he was in control the entire time. The sweet fragrance of food filled the air in no
time.
“Wow… Daddy is so cool!” Caprice remarked, her eyes filled with amusement.
John glanced at her with a soft smile, then cast a look at Sherry.
Sherry turned away immediately and refuse to look at him.
John smiled and did not think much of it. He diverted his attention back to the kitchen.
