Lyra was starving so badly that she could not take it any longer.
The smell of food made her even hungrier.
When Julien noted how uncomfortable Lyra seemed, he agreed in the end. "Let's go."
"Okay." Lyra smiled as she nodded.
After taking a few steps, she stopped and turned around to look at Jayden. "Jayden, do you want to come along?”
"No way," Jayden replied in a cold tone.
Lyra’s expression darkened and she lowered her head.
Julien pursed his lips. "If you’re not coming to help, then there's no dinner for you tonight."
After saying that, he pulled Lyra into the kitchen.
Jayden felt so upset that he tugged on his hair. He wanted to say "So be it.’’, but his stomach was growling and he could not bring himself to say that.
In the end, Jayden followed them into the kitchen in desperation.
The kitchen was huge, so all of them were inside without feeling cramped.
When Julien, Jayden, and Lyra walked into the kitchen, Sydney was handling the pan like an actual chef.
The dish in the pan went up in the air as Sydney flipped it, and they fell back onto the pan neatly within a second.
Luke, Hunter, and Sharon who were standing at the side were all shocked.
"This is amazing,” Sharon exclaimed.
Hunter nodded as well. "Master chef!"
"Darling..." Luke frowned, feeling both happy and sad at the same time.
He was happy that he could get a taste of her cooking.
He was also sad that Sydney went through so much in the Flint family. Before she married Julien, she did not have to even enter the kitchen.
As he thought about that, he turned around and glared at Julien.
Julien, Jayden, and Lyra all saw how Sydney flipped the pan. When they noted Luke's glare, they returned to their senses and quickly looked away.
They were all attracted by Sydney's wonderful display of skills.
"Let’s go over there." Julien cleared his throat awkwardly and pointed at the stove on the other side.
Lyra held his arm and walked over with him.
Jayden looked at Sydney, then at his brother. He then followed them in a dejected manner.
When they reached the stove, they stared at the pots and pans in front of them, visibly at a loss.
Since they had never tried cooking, they could not even recognize the equipment needed and naturally would not know where to start.
"Julien, how do we do this?" Lyra held the spatula and stared at it with difficulty.
Julien was silent for a few moments. “Let's clean the vegetables first. What do you want to eat?"
"Where are the vegetables?" Lyra asked with a blank look.
Jayden laughed. "I don't know how to cook, but I know that the vegetables will be in the refrigerator."
After he said that, he turned around and walked to the refrigerator.
Lyra bit her lip and her eyes turned red, brimming with tears.
"Julien, am I useless? I don't even know where the vegetables are."
"You're not. It's normal since you don’t know how to cook."
When Luke heard that, he rolled his eyes.
"How the heck is that normal? This is common sense.
President Flint, your fiance doesn't even have common sense. Can she be more useless than this? And you can even bring yourself to lie to her that this is normal. The worst thing is - she believed you! My gosh, she couldn't even tell that you were just comforting her.”
Sharon and Hunter laughed out loud.
Even the corners of Sydney’s mouth were raised.
Julien’s face was gloomy when he glared at Luke, and his eyes were cold.
Lyra looked like she was about to cry. "Luke, you're going too far!"
He said that she was useless and stupid.
"How am I going too far? I was only stating the facts. You just can't accept it.” Luke spread his hands and smiled nonchalantly.
Lyra's chest rose and fell violently.
