As Oliver was pondering what to do, Keira spoke up, āSorry, but the meal tonight was prepared based on the number of people. Grandmaās dining is served individually, so we canāt have you just watching while we eat.ā
Anyone with a bit of self-respect would have left at this point.
However, Marisa and Selena just smiled.
Marisa said, āItās no trouble. Itās an honor to be able to serve Grandma.ā
Keira grinned, āIām just worried that if we eat while you watch, it might be hard for you.ā
Marisaās eyes flickered for a moment. She had mentioned her humble background before, but was Keira really underestimating her knowledge and experience? As Oliverās mistress, how could she not have seen fine things before?
So what if she had to watch them eat?
She wasnāt even very hungry. Why would it be hard for her?
Marisa smiled, āNo, it wonāt be a problem.ā
āReally?ā Keira laughed, āThe food here is quite delicious. Iām just concerned that you might be tempted.ā
Selena scoffed, āAunt Keira, youāre underestimating us!ā
āIn that case, Iāll go get the food ready.ā
Keira left those words hanging and headed straight for the kitchen.
Lewis raised an eyebrow at the scene.
Looks like theyāre in for a treat tonight!
Old Mrs. Hortonās eyes lit up. She remembered when she first met Keira; she had stayed at Keiraās place for a while, and she knew her granddaughter-in-lawās cooking was exceptional.
She wondered what Keira had prepared this time.
Both old Mrs. Horton and Lewis were eagerly watching the kitchen, which made Oliver and Marisa exchange glances.
Oliver moved closer to Marisa and whispered, āMake sure you donāt embarrass us by acting like youāve never seen fine dining before. Got it?ā
Marisa whispered back, āDonāt worry, Oliver. Youāve treated me to so many fine dishes; Iām sure a meal prepared by a young girl wonāt make me jealous. Itās not like itās something extravagant!ā
Selena laughed, āI donāt get what sheās up to, but weāre staying here today and coming back tomorrow. Donāt worry, Dad. With Mom and me around, weāll make sure to build a good relationship with Grandma!ā
Oliver smiled, āGood girl! Youāre so much better than that troublemaker. Heās nothing but a headache and canāt do anything right!ā
Selenaās gaze lowered, āDad, donāt be upset. Jakeās just going through a phaseā¦ā
The three of them chatted away, completely unaware of what was about to unfold.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, as soon as Keira walked in, Fiona handed her an apron and said, āMaāam, Iāve already prepared the ingredients you mentioned before you left.ā
āGreat.ā
Keira tied on the apron and went to the counter.
She first opened the simmering pot.
The moment she lifted the lid, a rich aroma wafted out.
Keiraās lips curved into a smile as she looked at Fiona, āFiona, get four plates ready. Weāre serving something special tonight!ā
Fiona immediately prepared four plates with a smile.
When Keira mentioned the meal being served individually, Fiona knew right away that it was intentionalājust to let them watch without letting them eat!
Keiraās cooking was legendary; it was so delicious it felt like you were tasting art.
Fiona eagerly anticipated the moment when the others would only be able to smell the food but not taste it.
What a delightful thought!
As Fiona was lost in her anticipation, Keira skillfully prepared the prepped dishes, heated the oil, and began cooking.
Fiona watched her with admiration.
The entire process was so smooth and enjoyable to watchā¦ It reminded Fiona of an anime she had seen as a child, āChÅ«ka Ichiban.ā Every time she tasted Keiraās cooking, it felt like experiencing those dramatic flavor explosions.
It wasnāt just foodāit was an art form!
Keira quickly finished cooking four dishes and a soup.
She divided the food into four portions, keeping one for Fiona and signaling to her to take the other three to the dining room.
āSure thing!ā
Keira removed her apron and walked out of the kitchen to the dining room.
Old Mrs. Hortonās eyes lit up. āIs the food ready?ā
āPlease have a seat.ā freŃnovelkiss.com
Keira smiled.
Old Mrs. Horton turned to Oliver and the other two, saying, āIf you want to leave now, you still canā¦ Itāll be much harder to get away later!ā
The three were puzzled by her words.
Oliver even scoffed.
Marisa moved closer to old Mrs. Horton, āGrandma, itās my duty to serve you dinner.ā
At that moment, Fiona and a few servants brought out the three portions of food.
They placed the dishes in front of Keira, Lewis, and old Mrs. Horton, then announced, āThe food is served. Enjoy your meal.ā
Oliver scoffed, thinking they were just putting on a show.
How could some food possibly tempt him?
But as the lids were lifted, a powerful aroma filled the air and reached the noses of the three!
