Then, she sent a location map to Cindy Clarke.
Cindy Clarke: “Okay, let me know if you or your friends have any dietary preferences, dislikes, or allergies, and I’ll avoid them.”
Grandson, When Will You Find a Partner?: “Okay, let me make a list and send it to you.”
The next day, Cindy Clarke was less busy since she only prepared lunch for Adrian Zhekova.
She chose rice as the main dish for Adrian Zhekova, considering he’s always busy working and would need a more filling meal to last him through the day.
beautiful red color with a slight golden hue on both sides, then set them aside in a dish.
She also fried the shrimp heads in the pot until the shrimp oil came out, making it brightly red and delicious-looking.
She mixed the cooked rice with egg yolk and the fried shrimp oil, making sure that each grain of rice was coated.
Every grain of rice was now covered in egg yolk and shrimp oil.
Then, she fried the rice in the pot until it was dry and fluffy, added cooked green peas, and scooped it out once it was ready.
Cindy Clarke placed a layer of lettuce in the food container before putting the fried rice on it.
The extra lettuce worked as a separator between the rice and the other dishes she was going to add next.
Next, she ground ginger into a paste, chopped spring onions and fresh chili, fried them in a pot, and added chopped tomatoes, frying them until they were soft and pasty. She then added some tomato sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and a little white wine.
Finally, she added the shrimp and coated them in the sauce, removed them from the pan, and placed them on another piece of lettuce.
This way, the shrimp and fried rice were kept separate, and she didn’t have to worry about the rice getting soggy from the shrimp’s sauce or vice versa.
This was the main dish.
Worried that Adrian Zhekova might still be hungry, Cindy decided to add an extra side dish.
Smoked Salmon with Poached Eggs.
She separated three egg yolks, added salt and black pepper, then whisked them together with lemon juice, a little white wine, and olive oil to make a thick mayonnaise.
She also boiled two eggs, adding a few drops of white vinegar to the water, stirring it into a vortex before cracking the eggs in.
The whirlpool wrapped around the egg whites, slowly swirling them to resemble a poached egg.
She quickly scooped them out before the yolk was cooked, placed them on top of the smoked salmon, drizzled the homemade mayonnaise over it, and put it in the food container.
In a separate smaller container within the food container, she baked the remaining egg whites into crepes.
None of the ingredients went to waste.
Once everything was ready, she got on her electric bicycle and headed to the Pingla Group, just in time.
Cindy Clarke thought for a moment and sent Adrian Zhekova a message on Whatsapp: “I’ve arrived at the company. Should I leave the lunch at the reception desk for you?
She figured Adrian Zhekova might not have time to come down and get the meal himself, and would probably ask Sheldon Rowland to pick it up.
Adrian Zhekova was in a meeting, nearing its conclusion.
Suddenly, a Whatsapp notification chimed.
The clear sound was unusually loud in the conference room.
Everyone was shocked, breaking out in cold sweat – they had all set their mobile phones to silent during the meeting, right?
They exchanged glances.
Whoever didn’t silence their phone was in for a scolding!
Everyone knew about their CEO’s bad temper, and yet someone dared to leave their phone’s sound on during a meeting!
However, the sound seemed to be coming from the CEO’s direction.
Who would be so bold as to let their mobile phone make noise so close to the
CEO?
