Chapter 20 Part I

After all the guests had arrived, the two of them walked inside and invited them to start dining. At the table, Sakunthara was noticeably tense. The young man’s hand moved to touch her upper leg in a supportive way many different times, trying to tell her that the atmosphere around the dining table was informal.

After some time had passed, Sakunthara started to relax because one of the guests brought up the topic of liking Thai food. Pongket gave respect to and praised his wife while talking about her. After that, all the conversation topics passed to the wives, who held a lively discussion about food until they pleaded with the director to open up a Thai cookery school.

Sakunthara smiled. She turned to her husband as if seeking his opinion because she did not dare to make a decision. Pongket could guess her feelings from her facial expression, so he refused the idea for the moment.
