Chapter 357
Pax found the whole thing incredibly boring. Chloe wasn't even paying attention.
Silently, he put his clothes back on.
Everyone gathered to start their meal, digging into the luxurious food. The broth shimmered like golden jelly, rich and thick with a variety of ingredients.
The lobster was translucent and melted in the mouth, while the steak was fragrant, rich, and tender.
Faith was really eating it alongside her allergy medicine. Mid-meal, she started crying. Tugging at Connor's sleeve beside her, she whimpered, "Connor..."
Connor just looked at her, unamused, and pulled his sleeve back.
Faith kept her head down and focused on her meal.
The others began to praise the dish.
Juztin said, “Connor, no exaggeration, this is the best dish I've ever tasted.”
After taking a few bites, Barrett complimented, "Such authentic skills, Connor. Who did you learn from?"
Connor responded nonchalantly, "I just did some research on my own."
Pax, eating and feeling gloomy, asked, "Weren't you uninterested in cooking before?”
Pax had always looked up to Connor as a role model. He liked whatever his uncle liked. Since his uncle wasn't into cooking, he never bothered with it either. But unexpectedly, at some point, his uncle had turned into a master chef.
Connor answered casually, "I was uninterested until I saw a certain quote."
"What quote?"
"It's adult stuff.”
In the live stream chat:
[That quote must be "The way to a person's heart is through their stomach.”]
[Get out of here with that lovey-dovey talk.]
[Seriously, with Connor's status, countless women would kill to cook
for him. He wouldn't need to lea cooking for a woman, so it must be for a man!]
[You get out too.]
[Can we just appreciate how Connor breaks stereotypes about chefs? He keeps getting cooler.]
[Did anyone else find Pax's comment strange? Did Pax know Connor from before?]
Meanwhile, Chloe was also
thoroughly enjoying her meal.
Connor's cooking skills were on par with a five-star chef. The best meals of Chloe's life were made by Ann, and now, by Connor.
Kalilah seemed to suddenly find her appetite as well. But her portion was the smallest, and just as she was getting into it, it was gone.
She eyed Diana's bowl. "Why aren't you eating?" she asked gently.
Diana shook her head, her voice low, "I'm just not hungry."
Kalilah was about to say something when a long arm reached over, took Diana's bowl, and poured it into their
own saying, "Let me help you with that."
Kalilah stood frozen in place.
"You guys go ahead, I'm going to head back to the tent to rest," Diana said, leaving first.
Connor didn't look up, but his brow furrowed slightly.
Dinner concluded late into the evening.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Then came the time to cast the "crush votes" of the day. Before today's voting, the group had to select the best and worst dish of the day. Connor's Surf and Turf was unanimously voted the best.
The worst was Pax and Kalilah's grilled eel, mainly because Kalilah ended up throwing up on it, preventing anyone from actually tasting it. However, the production team didn't rush to reward or penalize anyone, choosing instead to proceed with the crush votes. Lovebot quickly announced the results.
“Today, only one pair matched successfully, Barrett and Diana. Please proceed to Angel Island for your romantic getaway."
