At the same time, the kitchen and maids also gradually walked into the kitchen with the prepared dishes.
The entire large, round dining table was full of all sorts of delicious dishes.
Ten minutes later, Xyla Quest, Stanley Batton, Jeremy Quest, and Betty Starmount went to wash their hands together. After that, they entered the dining room one after another.
Jeremy sat on the main seat while Betty sat on his left. Meanwhile, Xyla sat on Jeremy’s right.
Stanley then sat next to Xyla on the other side.
“Xyla, Stan, have a taste of Betty’s dish.” Then, Jeremy gave Xyla and Stanley a piece of braised pork each with a smile on his face.
The braised pork Betty made had a bright, red tone. It smelled very fragrant.
There were even quail eggs added to the dish. Each of the quail eggs was soaked in the rich broth, making it appear even more irresistible.
“Thank you.” Xyla smiled a little. After that, she placed the braised pork in her mouth.
The braised pork tasted delicious. It melted right away in Xyla’s mouth. Although it had bits of fats, it didn’t taste oily.
Xyla immediately raised her thumb. “Yeah, it tastes good…”
Betty immediately smiled satisfactorily when she saw this. After that, she placed another piece of braised pork on Xyla’s plate. “If it tastes good, have some more, boss… No, I mean… Xyla.”
“Thank you,” Xyla replied politely.
Although Xyla had her biases toward Betty, she still had to keep up appearances because her father liked Betty and the things he said.
At least, Xyla couldn’t ruin the mood and make her father unhappy.
Jeremy didn’t ask about the conversation between Xyla and Betty.
However, he could approximately guess what it sounded like.
