The CHEF from Burhan & Sons

Chapter 20 - Amaryllis

I can see the disappointment on Liam's face. He's pretending that what happened at the family dinner didn't happen but I can see right through him. 

He's passionate about what he does but for some reason only Tate sees that and I feel like I should fix it but I don't know where to start. I waited until he got in the bathroom and took my phone.

Me: Can we meet for coffee on Sunday?

Sandy: Yeah sure, everything ok?

Me: No. It's about what Marianna said 😔

Sandy: 🥺 I hear you. I'll meet you at that coffee place near your office at 10.

Me: Thank you, Sandy. Goodnight.

Sandy: 😘😘

He came out of the bathroom and went straight to his phone and called Mason. I decided to go take a shower too. When I got out he was asleep already. I got between the sheets and snuggled into his back. He didn't move. I spooned him and then gave in a much-needed sleep.

We woke up to the sound of his alarm. It was too early for me. I wanted to turn the other side so he could wake up but I was trapped. It made me open my eyes and look up at him. He was staring at me. No emotions just lost in thought. I pushed myself up and kissed him. He got out of trance then looked down on me and smiled.

"Good morning", he said making me smile back. "Good morning", i said then kissed him again. This time around he didn't let me go. I moaned the moment his hand squeezed my ass cheek. He smiled into the kiss.

His phone started ringing again so he pulled back and reached for it. "Shit! I have to go", he said then got out of bed abruptly. "Good morning Ramona... good I'm on my way too... see you there", he said then hung up. "Sorry baby. I have to inspect the produce myself. Quality assurance and all", he said and I nodded making him smile.

He did his morning routine and then got dressed. "I'll call you when I'm on my way so you get ready ok?", he said in a rush then gave me a peck on the lips and disappeared.

I went back to sleep. It was the weekend and I deserved it.

I was shaken lightly and when I opened my eyes it was Liam. He was looking at me like 'Woman get your ass up or I will drag you out of here', I guess I overslept. "Hi baby", i said with a smile. "Just get ready will ya?", he said then left the bedroom. I reached for my phone and there were four missed calls.

I took a shower as quickly as I could and put on a crop top with his sweat pants then went to the kitchen where I found him pouring coffee for me. "I swear I didn't hear the phone ring. I'm sorry", I said kissing his shoulder. "I know. You sleep like a dead man baby", he complained. "I'm sorry", I said again and this time around he nodded.

We ate breakfast and then left for my house right after. I was so excited and the fact that I wasn't able to visit as much filled me with anticipation. I didn't know if I was going to like the new design or not. "Here we are. Are you ready?", Liam said with excitement and wiggling his brows. "Yes, let's do this", i said then we got out of the truck.

"Waoh!", that was all I could say when the interior designer finished the tour. "I know right?", Liam said making me smile at him. "So when will everything be ready?", I asked. "We are targeting next week. We still need to bring in the rest of the furniture for the backyard and the patio swing", she said making me smile. "I can work with that. Thank you guys this is amazing and you've matched the design to the dot. I can't wait to move back in", I said and I saw sadness on Liam's face.

"Baby, we knew that I would have to go back eventually", I said as we were driving to my parents' office. "I know, it was wishful thinking. I'm so used to having you around that I want to keep you there forever you know", he said and I nodded. "I understand that but look on the bright side, renovation means a new home which means...", I said and he didn't pick up as fast as I wanted him to so I finished the sentence myself, "consummation". He turned to me and I wiggled my brows making him laugh. "Man you love sex", he said with a smile intact. "Not just any sex. Sex with Chef Liam Reviello", I added with a wink. He laughed again.

"Hi guys welcome to the Dwery's Cleaning Company! Let me give you a tour", Mum said the moment we walked into the reception then took Liam with her. "Why do you look shocked?", I asked the receptionist. "That's Chef Liam Reviello from Ryllis Eatery", she said with excitement. "Yeah, so?", I asked.

She opened her phone and showed me the nominees for the top 50 restaurants in the world and there it was Ryllis Eatery on the list of nominees. "Oh my god!", I said then rushed to where Mum and Liam disappeared to. I found them talking to Dad and I couldn't come up with words I just gave him the phone. "No way", he said and I nodded.

"Let me see", Mum looked and she screamed. "This is the best news ever! Congratulations my dear", she said then pulled him in a hug. "I never thought I would ever see this day", he said and I could see the joy in his eyes. Priceless. He hugged me and I hugged back.

"We still have to wait for the results though but the fact that we were even considered is enough for me", he said and all I did was smile. He sent the link to his social media manager and dumped it at that. "I'm so happy for you baby", i said making him smile. We got back to the apartment and celebrated properly.

An hour later we were panting and sweating with me sore down south. I felt thirsty. "You need some water?", he asked getting out of bed not bothering to cover himself up. "Yes, cold please", I said and he just replied with an "Anhaa", and left the room. He returned with my glass, I got up slowly making him look at me like he had no idea what he did.

"I'm sore", i said and took the glass from him. His nose turned red making me chuckle. "Chef Liam, are you blushing after destroying my pussy?", I asked making him scratch the back of his neck. "I'm sorry I got a bit carried away", he said making me smirk. "Yeah me too", he gave me a questioning look. "Go look in the mirror", i said making him rush to the closet. "Shit!", he cursed from the closet making me laugh. I might have given too many hickies too.
