In a Love Nest with the Aloof CEO

Chapter 459

With two plates displayed on the table, it was obvious that Skylar’s food was in no way comparable to Winnie’s.

From Winnie’s well-wrapped dumplings and appealing presentation, anyone would think that she was a seasoned cook.

Skylar smiled coyly at everyone and said, “I’m sorry you guys have to bear with me. I did a quick search online on how to make dumplings before I tried making them myself. I hope the taste is fine.”

“It’s actually very easy. You should’ve listened to me when I was teaching you just now.”

Winnie thought she had the upper hand since Skylar did not even expose her.

Everyone who tried Winnie’s dumplings complimented her. They were impressed that a young woman like her could cook so well.

As for Skylar, only Kai and Tobias reached for her dumplings after the first try.

It went without saying that Sheldon was savoring this moment of victory and was milking it. “Winnie has always been this good at cooking. In fact, she’s perfect in every respect. She’s just like my mom.”

Beside him, Winnie played the humble card. “Oh, I’m not even close to Mrs. Ford. She’s my role model. Making dumplings is actually not that difficult. You’ll definitely be able to wrap them nicely if you put your heart to it.”

Meanwhile, Claudia seemed to be having a good time listening to all the praises.

Tobias sat on the couch eating the dumplings Skylar made. Well, it really doesn’t look great, but it’s cooked at least.

Just as everyone was busy eating, a young man came into the dining area.

Since no one seemed to have noticed him, he cleared his throat audibly before speaking. “I’m sorry to disturb you, but I’m here to collect my remaining payment.”

Winnie’s face turned pale at the sight of the young man. She widened her eyes and raised her brows repeatedly, trying to hint at the young man to leave, but the chef simply looked at her cluelessly and walked toward her.

“Miss, I’m afraid you forgot to pay me. You promised to pay me three hundred for making the dumplings.”

The young man’s words struck everyone like a lightning bolt.

Kai was the first to chuckle out loud. “Woah, that’s playing dirty, Winnie. No wonder it tastes exactly like those sold in restaurants. You should just come clean with us from the very beginning. I can ask someone to get the dumplings delivered, then you don’t have to spend so much asking the chef to come over.”

Winnie was astonished looking at the young man. She had certainly paid him just now. She even asked him to leave right after he was done cooking.

There was nothing she could do so she gritted her teeth.

As for Claudia, she finally lost it when she found out Winnie had used such an underhanded trick on her. She had tolerated her once, and there would not be a second time.

“It’s late, please send the guest out, Sheldon,” Claudia seethed pointing at the plate in front of Winnie, “Throw all the dumplings away.”

Winnie scrambled to explain herself, but Sheldon did not even give her a chance to speak. He caught her by her arm and glared at her furiously. “That’s enough! I can’t believe you lied to all of us.”

Skylar watched everything from the side. Winnie had always been unscrupulous that she had forgotten that “what goes around comes around”.

Tobias had been looking at Skylar for some time. When Skylar sensed his gaze, she looked back at him as if what happened had nothing to do with her. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Tobias had realized earlier on that Kai kept looking at Skylar when everyone was eating.

He put down his cutlery and stood up. “Skylar and I are making a move first. Have a wonderful night, everyone.”
