Half an hour had passed, and Patrick was completely fed up. He was proctoring the exam, and they weren't allowed to use their phones, talk or even move their bodies. Yet here they were, still not turning in their answers. Were they communicating telepathically or something?
"Are you guys planning on communicating until tomorrow morning?" Patrick asked.
Everyone knew that this situation was all about luck; no matter how much editing one did, it couldn't be that precise. So really, wasting time like this made no sense at all.
Now Patrick watched as everyone adjusted themselves and said, "We're done."
Patrick collected the papers one by one himself without giving anyone a chance to see each other's answers or change them.
Normally someone would make a joke but right now the atmosphere was tense. Everyone waited for Patrick to announce the answers.
Aimee felt nervous too. Although cooking wasn't challenging for her at all, she wanted to know what everyone had chosen.
Patrick revealed the first paper: Walter and April's answer - glazed pork fillet - written in April's delicate handwriting.
"Just as I thought," Aimee said with a smile. "That's my girl looking out for me."
Indeed it was April's idea; Walter actually wanted roast lamb but April stopped him from choosing it.
The second paper belonged to Ben and Tilly who chose grilled branzino which required great skill but wasn't impossible either.
The third paper belonged to River and Averi who chose creamy oyster and watercress stew. Despite that River always teased Hayden brothers, he wouldn't dare trouble Aimee especially when Averi was around, because she'd take care of him first if he did. So, River thought about it before choosing it instead of something else more difficult
