Ambush of the Quadruplets novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136 Benjamin’s Secretary

Luca and the bodyguards felt uneasy as they stood outside the kitchen door.

They were not worried that the gas stove might explode, but they wondered who would be the pioneer to try their boss’ cooking.

That problem was harder than any mission they had received.

When Abel asked for their opinion, what would they say?

As expected, two hours later, Abel came out of the kitchen. He seemed excited.

“Hey, try my first dish! Meatloaf!”

So that’s what it is?

Luca and the bodyguards looked at Abel’s plate, then turned their heads away.

Abel was annoyed. “Hey, what’s with that reaction? This is my fourth attempt. At least be grateful that I’m not asking you to eat the previous three!”

“Ahem!” Luca braced himself and said, “I’ll try it! It’s just food, right?”

He reached out, broke off a pinch, and put it in his mouth.

Abel and the bodyguards watched him chew the meatloaf slowly.

Eventually, Luca swallowed.

Abel beamed.

The bodyguards took turns to pinch off a bit of meatloaf and put it in their mouths.

Abel had not brought out forks for them.

Once the meatloaf entered their mouths, the bodyguards had a newfound admiration for Luca.

No wonder he’s Mr. Ryker’s right-hand man!

How does he even do it? The meatloaf is barely edible, so how did he chew and swallow without showing anything on his face?
Luca and the bodyguards felt uneasy as they stood outside the kitchen door.

The bodyguards managed to endure the ordeal and swallowed the food without any complaint.

“What do you think?” Abel asked excitedly.

“It’s delicious!” Luca began to slap his hands.

“Delicious indeed!” The bodyguards also clapped their hands.

They would rather let Luca take the lead than react differently and make Abel angry.

“That’s great!” Abel said excitedly. “Lunch is on me!”

Help us! Luca and the bodyguards thought.

See that, Emmeline? I can make home-cooked food too! Abel thought.

Abel cooked lunch that day, and the men tried their best to finish the food.

However, Abel was a fast learner. After three days, the men did not have to suffer as much while eating.

They had to admit that Abel’s cooking had “soul.”

On the other hand, Abel received no reply from the Wonder Doctor.

Was I wrong? Abel thought as he gave a call to Benjamin.

“Is Ms. Wonder Doctor done with her research?”

“No.”

“Didn’t she say she’d take a week at most? It’s been seven days.”

“She’s not done yet.”
