At the dinner table, Hope Williams served everyone their meal, with Luke and Willow sitting side by side, and Waylon Lewis sat beside Hope Williams.
This was the first time the four of them sat down to eat together, but the atmosphere was unavoidably strange.
Waylon Lewis glanced at the table full of dishes, then looked sideways at Hope Williams, "Did you make all of this?"
"Aunt Thompson made it," said Hope Williams.
Just then, Aunt Thompson, who was carrying the last bowl of soup, hastily said, "Miss Williams is being modest. I only washed the vegetables. Miss Williams stir-fried all these dishes. Sir, you can have a taste. Miss Williams' cooking is really excellent."
Luke offered Waylon Lewis a piece of fish, "Mommy made very tasty food."
Waylon Lewis picked up that piece of fish and took a bite.
The fish was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, free of any fishy taste while preserving its freshness. It was delicious.
