Chapter 388 A sudden loud noise!
Frowning, Brian wondered if Antonio was still thinking about these things while at work.
How could he make Valencia Inc. the leading company in the country like this?
Ryan felt a little embarrassed for the first time. Why were they supervising such things? How could another man come into the house?
Harper also felt helpless. "Daddy, besides my brothers, you're the only man in our family."
Antonio was overjoyed. "As long as no one bothers my treasures, you go and play. Daddy will show you something."
Sarah couldn't quite stomach the food the chefs made, so she had already dismissed them.
Coincidentally, as Sarah was changing clothes and heard Antonio say that he would cook, she quickly stopped him. "Forget it."
"We agreed to have BBQ ribs today, I'll make it."
Antonio tossed his coat on the sofa and rolled up his sleeves, heading towards the kitchen.
However, just as he reached the door, his head suddenly felt dizzy. He held onto the door frame to prevent himself from falling.
Sarah saw it and couldn't help but feel helpless. "I told you to rest properly. Don't be stubborn."
Antonio immediately released his hands. "Okay, then you cook, I won't interfere."
With a caring wife, he naturally didn't have to push himself!
There were ready-made pork ribs at home, and the corn was fresh. As long as Sarah followed the steps and put them on the grill, perfect dishes would be ready.
However, as soon as Sarah was about to cut the corn, Antonio had already sliced it with his knife.
As Sarah salt-rubbed the ribs , Antonio had already prepared the BBQ sauce seasoning.
"Who should cook, me or you?" Sarah looked at the ready ingredients, thinking she could just put them on the grill.
"What's the difference between the two of us? Besides, don't you need someone to watch the coals? I'll just assist you."
Antonio chuckled innocently.
Sarah didn't know how to respond to someone who was smiling so warmly.
While cleaning up the kitchen garbage, Antonio told Sarah, "By the way, Century Garden is here. Be careful not to have another allergic reaction when you go to the backyard."
Harper had been talking about Century Garden for a long time. Since no one lived in the house there now, Century Garden had to be sent to the new residence.
At that moment, Sarah pressed the button on the stovetop. This burner was specifically for soup, but no matter what she did, it wouldn't light up.
"Weird, why isn't this burner working?" Sarah wondered.
"Let me take a look." Antonio put what he was holding down and walked over.
Coincidentally, Brian also entered the kitchen at that moment.
"Mommy, I—"
But before Brian could finish his sentence, there was a sudden loud bang in the kitchen!
The dysfunctional stove suddenly burst into flames, and the fire spread around the stove.
Sarah was the closest to the stove!
Upon seeing this, Brian didn't hesitate and immediately rushed towards her.
"Mommy, be careful!"
However, halfway through his run, Brian was lifted into the air. When he turned his head, he realized that Antonio was holding him tightly.
"Let go of me, I want to save Mommy..."
Before Brian could finish his sentence, Antonio had already pulled Sarah, perfectly shielding her behind him.
"Sarah, hold Ethan."
Antonio handed Brian to Sarah and charged into the fire.
"Antonio!" Sarah was clearly frightened by the flames.
"Get out quickly!" Antonio shouted and swiftly grabbed a fire extinguisher, successfully putting out the fire.
The scene looked dangerous, but in reality, the fire did not last more than half a minute before Antonio expertly resolved it.
After turning off the natural gas, Antonio immediately returned to Sarah's side. "Sarah, Ethan, are you both alright?!"
"We're fine, but you..."
Sarah was still trembling with fear. She didn't understand why the stove had suddenly caught fire.
It was only at that moment that Antonio noticed a wound on his arm, a bright red scar.
The scar didn't seem to be a problem, but it would probably blister and become infected tomorrow.
"I'm fine. Preliminary analysis suggests that the stove's battery was low. Since the natural gas was on, the ignition occurred when the battery reached a certain level. You two don't need to worry."
Brian had never experienced something like this before. Even though he was composed, he was ultimately just a five-year-old child who always had someone taking care of him. He had never witnessed such a scene before.
When the fire broke out just now, Brian even planned out who he would hand the company over to after his death.
But he didn't expect Antonio to remain so composed. Now, he could even calmly analyze the cause of the fire.
Brian stared blankly at Antonio, unsure of what to say. He recalled Antonio lifting him into the air with one hand earlier, and he couldn't quite describe the feeling in his heart...
