She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 696

Chapter 696: Cuisine

Three days later, the accumulated snow on the streets of Jostrana began to melt. Interestingly, the moment the snow started melting was also the coldest time in terms of temperature.

Jostrana's winter was even colder than the northeast region of Chulae. Venturing outside had become an extremely challenging task.

Along the way, the only establishments that remained open were sushi restaurants and small fish vendors. Cheyenne sat in the car, stealing a quick glance outside. She noticed many types of fish she had never seen before.

Yvonne couldn't resist her professional inclination and began to give Cheyenne an impromptu geography lesson.

"Starting in December and continuing until March of the following year, the Current passes through the western coast of Jostrana. This convergence of warm and cold currents stirs up the seafloor, bringing about abundant food sources and making this area rich in fishery resources."

Cheyenne wasn't particularly interested in these details. She sat quietly, her mind already wandering far away. She thought about the dirty wild man she had encountered in the Dead Forest, the mysterious and fearsome base, and even the man with the silver mask she had seen a few days ago.

Lately, she found herself recalling fragmented memories, as if they belonged to someone else, leaving her feeling estranged.

As her thoughts wandered, time continued to pass gradually, and the luxury car eventually stopped in front of a two-story wooden building.

They'd arrived at the Miller Residence.

Yvonne was the first to exit the car. She opened the door for Cheyenne and considerately reminded her to take it slow and be cautious of her stomach.

The sight before them brought about a shared expression of confusion and disbelief.

They had assumed that the Miller family, who seemed wealthier than most, would live in a grand and opulent mansion similar to the ones they had seen in Chulae.

However, the two-story, wooden house before their eyes was rustic. Upon entering, they were greeted by a long corridor with eaves and intricate roof corners. In the middle, a curved bridge connected the two sides, leading to a small lotus pond that had been dug out, with a hot spring flowing into it.

The pool housed some goldfish and a few blossoming pink and purple water lilies. Even in the cold winter, during a season of hibernation for most living things, the Miller family's courtyard still showcased lively goldfish and blooming lotus flowers, showcasing their extravagance.

As they walked through the wooden house, the servants wearing wooden clogs and uniform dark-colored robes greeted them with nods.

"Ladies, may I ask whom you are looking for?"

"We are here to see Mr. Miller."

Yvonne presented an invitation card adorned with a gold-embossed peony. This was the highest level of invitation from the Miller family, usually reserved for esteemed members of the royal family, high-ranking officials, and wealthy merchants.

Upon seeing the invitation card, the butler's attitude towards the two of them became even more respectful and sincere. He bowed ninety degrees, expressing his gratitude. "Are you both honored guests? Please follow me."
