Upon seeing that Demi was about to start ordering, Minerva quickly called out, “No! I-I mean, please don’t order the signature dishes. T-They don’t look particularly interesting. Uh… Why don’t we order some local cuisine? Aren’t you always saying that you miss that kind of food, Mom?”
Chloe immediately understood and she answered with a smile, “Oh—yes, I am. I didn’t get to eat the local food from my youth while I was abroad, so I missed them dearly. Let’s just get those, then.”
With a pout, Demi protested, “I thought you said you were no longer used to the local food, Aunt Chloe!”
This successfully made Chloe incredibly embarrassed.
Dumbfounded, James stared at his wife. Since when did I eat any snacks? he grumbled to himself.
However, he couldn’t criticize her right now because he knew that she was only trying to make Chloe feel better.
Overjoyed, Minerva flipped to the back of the menu, where the local foods were listed.
Unfortunately, even after doing so, she was unable to make her decision.
Even the local dishes were expensive.
All of a sudden, Tate quipped, “Oh—by the way, we shouldn’t order any alcohol since we’ll be driving tonight.”
However, Demi immediately complained, “Why are you afraid of drinking alcohol when there’s a valet service? Not to mention that it’s horribly tasteless to skimp on alcohol at such a high-end establishment—”
Upon hearing that, Helen brutally pinched her under the table, causing her to grimace in pain.
Then, Helen contributed with a smile, “It’s a good idea not to drink alcohol. After all, we did consume quite a bit of it last night. This is simply a casual gathering and not a business dinner, anyway. What use would we have for it?”
Gratefully, the Campbells offered her a smile. They would be able to save a lot of money by not ordering wine.
