Not Cinderella
Eating Two Billion Fish

Alyssa had been living in the main house of the Zega family for a few days.

Until now there was nothing he did but just rest in the room, and also around the luxurious house with Bu Imah.

Jimmy never came to him again. Zayden's assistant said he was out of town right now. There was a sudden work that master Juanda had ordered him to do. And Jimmy couldn't resist.

Alyssa was getting bored actually, but tomorrow she was only allowed to enter Juanda sir for work. So today he still has to stay at home.

During this time in the house, Alyssa rarely met with Mr. Juanda. They only met at breakfast. The big master seemed so busy taking care of the company.

Although he was cruel, but Alyssa also felt sorry to see him. He's old, but he has to work in Zayden's place.

And this afternoon, Alyssa decided to cook. The butler said that master Juanda will be home soon today. So it's better to have dinner later let him cook something for the big master.

Asparagus soup with a little sweet corn.

Yes, Mr. Juanda's favorite soup. Alyssa just found out.

"The late mistress Sarah also often cooks this soup for the big lady" said the butler who is now accompanying Alyssa cooking.

"Yes, Zayden said so. It turns out that this is the favorite food of the great master" Alyssa replied.

"But you were so lucky, thanks to your soup at that time, the great master was instantly cured of his illness" said the butler.

Alyssa looked at the butler with a look of disbelief.

"What's right, sir?" ask Alyssa. His hands were still busy stirring the soup that would soon be ripe.

The butler nodded immediately.

"Yes, since Sarah's mother died, there has never been anyone else who could make soup like Sarah's mistress. The master always disliked, even the chef in this house was also unable to make soup that fit on the tongue of the master. But miss..."

His words came to a halt and looked at Alyssa in awe.

"Miss can make the great master taste the soup again" said the butler.

Alyssa immediately smiled embarrassedly hearing her.

"You're overreacting sir. I'm still learning" Alyssa said. But the butler shook his head slowly and smiled

"Only from the aroma alone I already know if this taste must be delicious. And just like Miss Sarah. The young master is so lucky to have you married, miss" said the butler.

"Not really sir. I am just an orphan from the village. It is very different from Zayden. The lucky one is me, even sometimes I am embarrassed if I have to be juxtaposed with him. It feels inappropriate" said Alyssa who arrived suddenly so sad again.

"Miss, status is not important. What matters is the happiness of the young master. He chose the lady for sure because he knew the lady the best" the butler praised.

Alyssa laughed bitterly at that.

"My brother was so moved to hear it. I really don't deserve to be praised like that. Later when I have been successful then you can praise me yes" said Alyssa

The butler immediately laughed. He was really amazed by Alyssa. The innocent girl who turned out to be the wife of her young master.

"I heard you're going to build a resto?" ask the butler.

"Yes sir, just a little resto. My capital is still lacking, so I am still pioneering first" said Alyssa

"It's okay. That's been very good. After all, working in the Denue festival is also a great achievement. Only the best people can work there" said the butler.

"True sir, and I'm lucky right" said Alyssa while turning off her stove.

The butler called the house chef to help Alyssa serve this finished dish.

"Let me be okay sir" said Alyssa. But the butler immediately shook his head.

"No, miss, it's the cook's job. They are also paid to work. Miss's job is done and it's time for the lady to rest. Perhaps soon lord Juanda will return home" said the butler.

"alright then. Then I'll take a shower first. Thank you sir for accompanying me" said Alyssa

"Same miss" replied the butler.

After cooking, Alyssa went straight to Zayden's room. The room where Alyssa slept here. Now Zayden's room is his own. Since sleeping in this room, Alyssa has never been sick or nauseated and vomited again. He feels comfortable here. This kid knows his father's place.

And at night...

Alyssa went downstairs to see if lord Juanda had come home or not. And it turned out that he was already home, even sitting in the dining chair, looking at his homemade soup served by the butler.

"Who made it?" ask sir Juanda

"Miss Alyssa sir" replied the butler.

Alyssa who heard that instantly became erratic of her feelings.

Doesn't Mr Juanda like it?

Or the...

"Sorry sir, I made that soup so you can eat well. You look tired for a few days" said Alyssa as she walked closer to Mr. Juanda.

The butler immediately moved away when Alyssa was approaching. He was standing next to Mr. Pong who was standing not far from there.

Mr. Juanda was silent when Alyssa now poured a glass of water in her glass. And after that he immediately sat down in his chair. As usual, they eat in silence. Even when eating like this Alyssa was really scared.

The atmosphere of eating that looks tense and gripping always makes his appetite decreases. But what you want to say, this is already the rule.

Yes, a few days here Alyssa has begun to understand how the rules made by Mr. Juanda. The butler had already told him everything.

Including eating, no one makes a sound. Even if it's just the sound of a spoon.

Alyssa glanced at master Juanda who was eating voraciously, and that could make Alyssa a little relieved. If usually this great master only ate potluck but now he seemed to eat voraciously.

Fishy..

Yes Alyssa wants to eat grilled fish now.

Uhh.. why is the child even fussy at a time like this anyway.

Ting

The sound of a spoon being hit by a bowl made Alyssa gasp. He immediately looked at Master Juanda who turned out to have finished eating.

"Why don't you eat?" mr. Juanda's question made Alyssa turn her head back to her plate.

Which he did not touch.

Gee whiz...

Alyssa immediately smiled bitterly at this.

"You cook but you don't want to eat it. Is there something to eat of this" said Mr. Juanda.

Alyssa immediately shook her head quickly.

"No sir no, I I just don't taste like eating this" said Alyssa who immediately tasted her soup.

"Then what do you want?" ask sir Juanda.

"I want to eat grilled fish" Alyssa replied with her face.

"So why didn't you cook that" asked Mr. Juanda.

Alyssa bowed down with sadness and fear.

"Why again?" lord Juanda's question made Alyssa gasp

"I. I want to eat the fish in the back pool" Alyssa replied with a bitter smile.

Master Juanda looked at Alyssa with clinging. While Mr. Pong and the butler were seen to be holding their smiles.

Because they know if the back is the Khoi fish beloved by the big master.

Seeing the silent master Juanda Alyssa immediately bowed sadly.

It is certainly not given, especially Alyssa can see if the fish is a beautiful fish and colorful. Alyssa likes and wants to eat her.

"Take one and burn it for him" master Juanda ordered the butler

Alyssa immediately sparkled hearing that.

"Aah sir thank you. But I want a black and white man" Alyssa exclaimed to the butler.

The butler was immediately stunned, his face grimaced and immediately looked at master Juanda who was seen sighing heavily.

"The black and white color is small, not big like the others" said Alyssa with her innocent face.

But it can make Mr. Pong and also the butler was very anxious. Alyssa does not know if even small, but Khoi fish with that type is the most expensive Khoi fish there. The price alone could reach two billion more.

"Great master.. How?" asked the butler doubtfully.

Mr. Juanda looked back at Alyssa's face and unfortunately he could not bear to see that face.

Until finally with a tired breath, he immediately nodded slowly.

"Take it if you don't spend it" said Mr. Juanda who immediately stepped out of his chair.

"Yeay..I must have spent it. Come on sir, let's take it"

Alyssa immediately ran and caught up with the butler, even she forgot her fear of master Juanda because she was so happy her desire to be followed by the great master.

Mr. Pong really couldn't help but laugh at Alyssa.

For a few days Alyssa seemed to be afraid and displeased with lord Juanda, but tonight when her wish was fulfilled she seemed so happy and happy.

"It has only been a few days here that he has spent two billion more" mumbled master Juanda with a sigh of fatigue.

"This is also your great-grandson's wish sir" said Mr. Pong.

...

And sure enough, that night Alyssa enjoyed her grilled fish voraciously. He even ate together with the butler behind the gazebo house near the park. More precisely Alyssa forced the butler to accompany her meal.

Bu Imah does not like to eat fish, especially Khoi fish. So Alyssa forced the butler to eat with her.

"So you've worked here long enough, yes" asked Alyssa between meals. As long as there was no master Juanda, they could freely express themselves.

"It's been non, it's been since before Mr. Jordan got married" the butler replied. He enjoyed his fish. When else can eat two billion fish.

"It's been a long time, sir. I heard that Zayden's parents died in an accident?" ask Alyssa again.

The butler nodded immediately.

"Yes, the consecutive accident that occurred on the Cipularang toll road. Mr. Zayden was very young at the time, and it was fortunate that he did not go with his parents" the butler said.

"Just like me sir. I was also left behind by my parents when I was a toddler" Alyssa said

"Non accident?" ask the butler

"Yes sir" Alyssa replied with a bitter smile.
