Chapter 379 A Family Banquet
Based on Cierra’s judgment, her thinking was reasonable.
In the days when the car accident happened, the Barton family did not have much communication with Belle. They had not even met. Why did Belle have to find someone to make trouble for her?
Moreover, even if Belle was really angry because of the family accident, she would not have been so ruthless.
A car accident might cause other problems.
“Belle doesn’t look like that kind of person.”
She was greedy for money.
But at the same time, she was also very timid.
For example, at the Barton family’s dining table, she couldn’t even argue with William.
She didn’t dare to go too far.
Therefore, the car accident should have nothing to do with her.
But….
Cierra couldn’t understand why would Belle was like this.
“Let us investigate this matter. Just stay at home. Don’t think too much.”
Just as she was thinking about it, Jaquan interrupted her thoughts.
Jaquan picked up a piece of honey root for her and said in a gentle tone. He seemed to be trying his best to persuade her.
The brown lotus root was wrapped in sticky honey, and there was a small mint decorated on it, which looked very beautiful.
Cierra glanced at Jaquan, who was already sitting upright in his seat.
“All right
Cierra looked at the food and listened to her brother. She didn’t think about it again.
Since she couldn’t figure out the truth, she had to investigate it to know what the truth was.
Just like someone with aspirations.
No matter how good his plan was, it was better to act on his own.
It was just her own guess.
What’s more, Belle was her relative.
She should not be making such speculations.
Cierra took a bite of the sweet honey-coated lotus root and forgot those annoying things.
It had to be said that the recipes of the Chester family were really delicious.
The food in her mouth was sweet but not greasy. The lotus root was sweet and soft, and there seemed to be a little mint fragrance in it. After swallowing it, there was a faint sweetness lingering in her mouth.
No matter how modest Wilson was, he still had a lot of skills and experience that many chefs couldn’t learn.
Unfortunately, this food was not enough….
There were so many people and they couldn’t taste that.
It was just that most people didn’t like sweet food, so Jaquan used it to comfort her.
When they looked at it again, they found that it had almost been divided.
Cierra pushed Jaquan forward, shifted her small bowl over, and ordered unceremoniously, “Jaquan, I want to eat the cucumbers. Can you give me some?”
Before Jaquan could do anything, Wilson, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly looked at them.
“What are you two muttering about? Look at you two, you keep talking. Why don’t you talk to everyone in a loud voice?”
Being suddenly called out, Cierra was stunned.
After all, a minute ago, she was secretly chatting with her eldest brother. She still felt a little guilty in front of her elders.
Wilson thought that she was afraid of strangers, so he explained gently, “There are not so many rules at the family banquet. It’s not easy for us to have a good time on’t be nervous. Just say what you want to say. If you’re not satisfied, just tell me. Okay?”
After saying that, Cierra came to her senses.
She forced a smile and said, “I know, Grandpa. I was just ordering my brother around, and I didn’t say anything secretive. It’s just that your cooking skills are not bad. I want to try every dish.”
Wilson was instantly delighted. “I thought you, a chef at L’Opera Restaurant, looked down on my cooking skills.”
“That’s not true. Everyone has their own strengths. Sapidity Restaurant was also great. We’re on par with each other!”
Cierra took the opportunity to speak again. Her sweet words made the smile on Wilson’s face. deepen.
Cierra was telling the truth.
But some people at the table changed their faces slightly because of the conversation between them.
Because she was taking care of Belle, Cherry came here late. She sat opposite Cierra and next to Clark.
There was nothing against the rules for ranking according to seniority.
However, there had been resentment in Cherry’s heart since she sat down. At this moment, when she heard that her grandfather, who usually doted on her, was so intimate with Cierra, she felt more and more unhappy.
Especially when she heard Wilson teasing Cierra at L’Opera Restaurant, she felt angry.
Why would everyone love Cierra? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She had been by everyone’s side for a longer time!
Why wasn’t she the one being favored?
Just because Cierra was the daughter of the Barton family, everyone was on her side?
She gritted her teeth and saw Mrs. Chester pick up some food for Sarah.
“I heard that Sarah is still taking medicine. There might be a lot of things that she can’t eat, so I can’t pick anything for you. Just try some vegetables.”
Sarah did not reject her. She took it and thanked her warmly. “Mom, you don’t have to do this. Just sit still. Jaquan can help me.”
Mrs. Chester glanced at Jaquan and smiled kindly. “Okay. Your grandfather got up early in the morning to prepare it. He kept talking about it for a whole day, for fear that you would laugh at him if you were not like it.”
Cherry completely lost control.
Boom!
The sound of the fork hitting the table startled everyone.
Everyone looked at her.
Some looked puzzled, some were a little confused, and some were expressionless. They didn’t say anything.
In the end, it was Wilson who spoke up. “What’s going on? What are you doing?”
Cherry had rarely been scolded by him in such a tone.
She felt so wronged that she sobbed and shouted.
“It’s your family dinner. Have you ever thought about my mother? She’s unconscious now, but youcan enjoy the dinner. Have you ever considered my mother? You don’t treat me and my mother as a family at all!
