Chapter 340
Parrish and Clyde did a bang–up job cleaning up the chicken, while Astrid, with her own dagger in hand, cut the meat, boiled some in a pot, and skewered some onto wooden sticks to roast.
Cooking meat took a long time, but grilling meat could be done quickly. Everyone was gathered around the fire, watching her hustle and bustle, like a bunch of kids waiting for supper.
Especially Parrish, his mouth was watering like crazy.
Astrid seasoned the roasted meat, and the tantalizing aroma of the grilled chicken made everyone feel even hungrier. “Alright, it’s all ready. Let’s share it among ourselves.”
“Thanks!” Parrish didn’t stand on ceremony, grabbed a piece of meat, and started to chow down. “Wow, this is the best meat I’ve ever had in my life!” “Thanks to Astrid, otherwise we’d be really hungry tonight!” Odell chuckled, thinking how lucky they were to have meat in such a place.
Joana was very cautious, she dared not grab any unless Astrid gave her the green light.
Everyone got their meat, but she was the only one who didn’t move. She was sitting there, hugging her knees, looking pretty pitiful. “Take it. A skewer of meat was handed to her. She quickly raised her head and saw Naylor’s poker face.
Naylor said, “Please don’t bother us in the future.”
Bother?
Joana wanted to throw the skewer away in anger!
But she was so hungry, and Astrid had worked so hard to prepare this meal. If she wasted it, Elio would definitely not let her go.
“I’m sorry, I won’t be self–willed anymore.” Joana took a small bite of the meat, feeling more and more wronged..
Now everyone was on Astrid’s side, Joana knew she was in for a rough few days.
After they finished the meat, they had some soup and wild vegetables and everyone was in high spirits..
