A Matter of Wife and Love novel Chapter 281

“If you guys planned on giving us only pasta from the beginning, you could’ve just put the stick of butter into the bowl, and we’ll make buttered noodles. Why go so far as to give us pots and pans, and even this barbecue grill?!” said the male celebrity who called himself a pit master while waving dismissively.

Then, everyone quickly realized there wasn’t even basic oil and seasoning, let alone a stick of butter.

“This is a special arrangement from the crew. Everyone will have to figure a way out. No outside food allowed, though,” one of the cameramen announced as he lifted his camera a little over his head, worried the celebrity guests would hammer him.

The celebrity guests, on the other hand, were rendered speechless. Not only do we have to figure it out ourselves, but we can’t get outside food either. What do they want us to do, eat grass?!

Not even the best cooks could make dinner without ingredients. With that, everyone just looked at each other with no game plan in mind, and the enthusiasm from earlier gradually diminished.

At that, everyone looked toward Leo in unison.

Because of how he showcased perfect leadership on the show last time, everyone placed their hopes on him now. However, they quickly realized his attention wasn’t on them but elsewhere.

Curious, they followed his line of sight to notice Amelie and Fiona setting the chairs and table, and the originally chaotic scene became organized.

Better yet, the two even decorated the table with some wildflowers they had picked.

“Well, aren’t you a patient one? To think you still have the mood to arrange flowers under these circumstances.” Fiona gazed at Amelie admirably.

She was genuinely impressed.

Amelie smirked in response, and as she continued arranging the flowers, she pulled a smile. “What else am I supposed to do when I’m stuck in this situation? Cry?”

“Why do I think you have already devised a plan, though?” The actress looked at her with great interest.

To that, Amelie nodded and pointed toward the distance. “See that? There’s a river at the foot of the mountain. I saw quite a few fish there, and they’re not species that a river in the wild can produce. The crew dropped them there in advance.”

“Oh?”

Though she had also wandered around and even seen the river earlier, she certainly didn’t look as closely as Amelie did.

Foxy sure is unlike any other.

“Even so, what can we do? They haven’t provided us with any fishing equipment, not even a hook. How are we going to catch them?” Fiona furrowed her brows with worry.

“Simple!” Amelie snapped her fingers. “Call Fabian and the others over.”

Though Fiona was somewhat upset that she had to call Fabian over, she still did so, and behind Fabian followed Lilith and another male celebrity.

“You must be joking! Catching fish? In this kind of river? How are you going to do it? By hand?” Lilith burst out laughing after hearing Amelie’s game plan.

She even gestured with her hands at that.

Amelie was aware that the young woman had a problem with her, so she said nothing but only pointed behind Lilith with her chin.

Lilith turned around in response, and her face blanched as soon as she saw the cameraman following her.

In the end, she stomped her feet in anger and said nothing more as she moved aside. However, her gaze remained judgmental. Evidently, she didn’t believe Amelie could come up with any good plans.

“Lilith’s right, though. All we have is our hands. How are we going to catch any fish?” Gabriel, the other celebrity, asked as he leaned toward Lilith a little, comforting her with his gaze.

At that, Amelie removed her jacket and said, “You guys should also remove whatever outerwear you can.”

“Are you asking us to take off our clothes? What is the meaning of this?!” Lilith questioned again, displeased.

The others were shocked as well.
