After that, she followed Vicente to the dining room. Vicente
pulled out a chair for her and said gently, “Ms. Chavez, please
have a seat.”
“Thank you.”
After Harriet sat down, Vicente went to the kitchen to bring out
the dishes.
Seeing this, Harriet quickly stood up again and said, “Mr. Leach,
let me help you.”
Vicente placed the sweet and sour ribs and vegetables on the
table, smiling as he said, “Ms. Chavez, please don’t be so polite.
There’s really nothing that needs help. Just sit and relax.”
With that, he went back to the kitchen and brought out steamed
bass and a cold dish.
Finally, he brought out a pot of fragrant chicken soup.
A few simple home–cooked dishes, but they looked, smelled,
and tasted wonderful.

Harriet hadn’t had breakfast, and now, smelling the aroma of
the food, she really felt a bit hungry and had quite an appetite.
Vicente served a bowl of chicken soup for Harriet and handed it
to her, his voice gentle: “Ms. Chavez, make yourself at home.”
“Thank you, Mr. Leach.” Harriet took the chicken soup from
Vicente with both hands, a bit surprised as she asked, “Did you
make all these dishes yourself, Mr. Leach?”
Sitting down across from Harriet, Vicente smiled and said, “My
cooking skills aren’t that great, Ms. Chavez, but I hope you don’t
mind.”
Harriet said, “It’s already very good. Just looking at it makes me
hungry. I never expected someone in your position, Mr. Leach,
to be able to cook so well.”
Vicente burst out laughing and said heartily, “Leaders are just
ordinary people too. We have the same feelings and desires as
everyone else. Besides, work is busy during the week, so
cooking on weekends is a way to relax.”
Harriet took a spoonful of chicken soup and tasted it, saying, “This soup is so fragrant and delicious.”
Harriet praised the soup’s aroma and taste, and Vicente’s smile
Chapter194
grew even wider. He picked up a fork and served Harriet a piece
of rib: “Ms. Chavez, try the ribs.”
“Thank you.”
Vicente had made quite a few dishes, and each portion was
generous. Harriet didn’t stand on ceremony and ate two bowls
of rice as she usually did.
She didn’t stop to wonder whether Vicente, when eating alone,
would cook five or six dishes and stew a whole chicken.
She just hadn’t expected that someone in such a high position
could cook so well.
Especially the chicken soup–it was so fragrant and sweet.
Sitting across from Harriet, Vicente saw how natural and at
ease she was, eating and drinking quietly without any
unnecessary restraint. He felt especially happy and kept serving
her food.
When serving her fish, he even picked out the bones first.
Harriet knew Vicente’s attentiveness was because he was
afraid she would be too polite, so he took extra care of her.

After the meal, Harriet returned to the living room and
demonstrated the product’s functions for Vicente. She also
sent him both the written and video instructions.
When she asked Vicente for his feedback, Vicente said, “Ms.
Chavez, may I use it for a while before giving my opinion?”
Hearing Vicente’s words, Harriet quickly replied, “Of course,
that’s fine.”
She added, “Then, Mr. Leach, I’ll head back for today. If you
have any questions later, feel free to call me anytime.”
Vicente said, “Alright, thank you for your hard work, Ms.
Chavez.”
After saying goodbye to Vicente, Harriet packed up her things.
and left.
When she left, Vicente walked her all the way downstairs and
watched her car drive away before turning to go back upstairs.
This girl was very down–to–earth and also very smart.
Driving home, Harriet changed her shoes as she entered the
house and immediately felt relaxed and at ease.

She changed into her loungewear and went to the study, turned on her computer, and picked up her phone, only to see that the
WhatsApp work group was buzzing with activity.
Ventura Tech was holding a tech exhibition today, and the
trending topic had already appeared several times.
Kelsey was also in the spotlight today, trending as well.
At the moment, netizens were full of praise for her, calling her a
true goddess.
They said she came from a good family, was beautiful, and
worked so hard that they all felt inferior, saying she deserved to
be so outstanding.
Kelsey played along, deliberately posting a nine–photo collage
of herself at the tech exhibition, explaining technology to
others.
She wore a tight–fitting dress today, showing off her figure.
High–tech paired with classical style–the boys who admired her
were going crazy, all calling her ‘wife‘ under her Twitter posts.
Harriet glanced through the chat history in the group and looked
at a few of Ventura Tech’s flagship products. Then she exited

the WhatsApp group, put down her phone, and started working.
