"No!" I wish I can open my eyes right now to give her a weird look with the way she didn't even pause before giving me that answer.

"Why? Why are you so against it? I am talking about it from yesterday." I pointed out and now had to keep quiet as they started applying the lipstick after finishing the eyebrow makeup.

"This is not the place for us to have this discussion. First, finish this streaming, and let's go back to your place." She ordered and I can hear her stepping out of the Prathap's cabin which he gave us so that I can get a bit ready for the live we are going to do for the dishes his chef is going to prepare.

"Done! What are you both discussing?" My makeup artist whom Mr. Vikranth appointed strictly for me asked.

I glanced at her after opening my eyes and kept quiet as I am still not close to her and getting to know her slowly for now even though she worked for me a few times in the past for the events in India.

"Nothing special! So, I can go now?" I asked her with a smile and she nodded before glancing at her phone with an irritated look.

"What happened?" I asked before I could stop myself.

"My boyfriend! He wants to meet you after knowing I am working with you. Now, he is fighting with me when I rejected that." She explained and I frowned hearing that.

"Dump him! Why am I that important in your relationship that you both had to fight because of me?" I said before walking out of the cabin and didn't even care about her reaction to it.

I smiled looking at Prathap who looks nervous than I am and we decided to let others continue to work to let the viewers see a bit of inside the kitchen.

"Remember to be subtle and don't give out the reaction which you don't feel just because he is your boyfriend. This is a small thing but if anything goes wrong then everyone will be brought down." Keerthi instructed me again which she already did at my place.

"I know! I know!" I mumbled sitting on the chair they arranged specially for today and the camera on the table is also set.

"Just two dishes. One will be the main dish and the other would be a dessert." She instructed the chef this time.

I shook my head before taking a deep breath and glanced at Prathap who is already staring at me. I smiled looking at him brightly before shifting my head to stare at the camera with the same look and the live streaming started with me greeting everyone even the views are not that many.

"This is really good. Oh no! My manager is glaring at me for eating this whole." I added when I found Keerthi glaring at me really.

"Next! Next!" I said glancing at the person who is near me to get me the dish and smiled when I found Bharghav actually prepared my favorite dessert, chocolate mousse.

I took a bite immediately after showing them the dish properly before taking a bite and closed my eyes with the way it just melted.

"Wow! Do you guys know this is my favorite? I never talked about my favorite desserts as I always said if it is sweet, then I will eat it. But this is actually my favorite and I somehow passed that to the chef I think." I said smiling at the camera.

I took another bite but stopped with just two bites before saying, "I have to stop myself to finish this. But what is stopping you guys? Come over and enjoy these."

With that, I waved at them saying goodbye greetings, and the camera was turned off by Keerthi after she understood the moment she has to.

"So, how was it?" I asked looking at others and mainly at Bharghav.
