Chapter 372
This also meant that they would soon discover that she had traced their IP.
It would be too difficult to catch someone based on the address that was all the way on the other side of the ocean, so Hesper didn’t plan to catch them with this trick. She just wanted to taunt them and show them that she wasn’t predictable.
Since she was in the light and they were in the dark, all they could do was play little garnes.
That being said, Hesper still sent someone to the location to see if they could find any valuable clues
There was a lot to prepare for the new year countdown at the Lane household. Arthur loved to be surrounded by people Maybe he wished that he had his family around him at his age, so Matthew was back early
Hesper had been busy with all kinds of work previously, so now that she had some free time, she didn’t know what to do. She went to the kitchen to learn how to cook.
Everyone knew that Hesper was a good cook, but there were a lot of dishes from Emperion that she never heard of before, so they were new to her,
“If you knead it gently it will be crispier later.”
Okay, like this?”
When Matthew walked into the kitchen, he saw Hesper learning how to make cookies from the cook. There was some flour on her face, which neither of them noticed.
Hesper probably scratched it because it was itchy, and now the flour stuck to her face, making a white patch. Matthew chuckled.
Hesper looked up while holding a slab of dough. She placed it down when she saw him. “You’re back.”
“Yup. Grandpa said that you’re cooking, so we’re going to have delicious food later.”
A little shy, Hesper started scratching her face again. However, then she noticed the flour on her. hand and stopped. She felt more awkward after hearing what Matthew said.
“I’ve learned for more than half an hour and I still don’t know how to make this well enough… If we rely on me to cook, everyone will die of hunger.” Hesper shook her head. Matthew walked over and wiped the flour off her face.
The cook was enjoying watching them. She was an old cook there, so she wasn’t shy to speak. You’re really talented. This is something that takes years to learn.”
Hesper turned around and looked happy. “Oh, I just knew that there was nothing I couldn’t make.”
“Sure.” Matthew leaned against the wall and watched the cook knead the dough. Hesper gave up and started cooking something else. They looked like a happy family.
Fireworks were banned in Emperion, but since it was the countdown, a lot of people did it illegally. The Lanes prepared some sparklers. It was a tradition they had. Hesper lit one up on her balcony and watched the flame burn in the night air.
