Unlike Malorie, he had tasted all kinds of amazing food in Jadeborough. Thus, he did not expect much from a simple ravioli.
Out of curiosity, Henrick immediately shoved it into his mouth.
The delicious juices burst in his mouth with a single bite. The ravioli was indescribably delicious to him. So much so that he wanted a second one immediately after the first one.
Soon, the entire plate of ravioli was almost completely devoured by Henrick and Malorie.
However, when there was only a single piece left, both of them reached for it at the same time.
Henrick paused for a second before reluctantly withdrawing his hand and saying, “You can have it, Mom.”
Suddenly, Malorie realized that Arielle had made it, so she scoffed and put her fork down. She then sneered, “It seems to me that even garbage will taste good when we're hungry. I'm done. You guys can carry on." As she spoke, she took one last look at the piece of ravioli before forcing herself to get up and return to her room.
Malorie's reaction amused Arielle. Oh, she's eaten so much. She'll definitely feel it tomorrow, all right.
After that, she asked Henrick, “Are you still hungry, Dad? I actually made another plate, so if you want, I can bring it out for you.”
The truth was that Henrick still wanted more indeed. However, he did not want Arielle to think that he loved her cooking, so he waved his hand and said, “I'm done too. You can go ahead and eat it. Since we have a long drive ahead, I'll be off to bed now. I've had the chauffeur make your bed already. You should sleep early after you're
done as well.”
“Will do, Dad,” Arielle replied with a gentle smile.
Arielle then went to the kitchen after Henrick had returned to his room. She did not eat the ravioli but simply made another meal for herself.
