Julie was a half-assed cook, and Kai had no talent at all. Otherwise, he would not have been beaten by Floyd in the past.
When Nicole went into the kitchen, they had already cooked several dishes.
They made cucumber salad and pickled onions.
There were also all kinds of burnt seafood on the side.
Nicole could not bear to look at it.
Julie smiled and pulled Nicole to the side.
“I just ordered your favorite seafood and sashimi from the Millennium Hotel, so we don’t need to serve this.”
Nicole nodded in agreement.
Even though Nicole cooked before, Nicole did not cook anymore since she dated Clayton because he did not let her into the kitchen.
Thus, she was a little rusty.
Seeing the unappetizing dishes that could not be served, Nicole also agreed to wait for the arrival of the takeout.
As a result, when they went out of the kitchen, they heard Floyd telling Clayton not to help out because it would be too tiring.
Kai coughed dryly and objected in dissatisfaction.
“Dear father, I’m your biological son!”
Floyd pursed his lips in disapproval.
“Not necessarily… We might’ve taken the wrong baby home from the hospital…”
Kai said, “I was born at home!”
Floyd replied, “Oh, I forgot…”
Julie laughed so hard that she could not stand straight.
Nicole also covered her mouth and snickered.
Aida came over with a beautifully decorated cake with petals while Grant carefully supported her back for fear of her tripping.
“Mr. Anderson, I hope you won’t blame us if it’s not delicious.”
The butler smiled.
“Of course not! It’s so beautiful that I can’t bear to eat it!”
Everyone laughed. After a while, they heard a car parked outside.
Clayton stood up and said, “Chatty and Fischer are back.”
Sure enough, the next second, Chatty ran in happily while Fischer chased after her with two small school bags in his hand. He panted tiredly but was not at all impatient with her.
“Happy birthday, Mr. Anderson!”
The butler smiled happily with squinted eyes.
“Thank you, Chatty.”
Behind her, Fischer took out a small gift box from the schoolbag.
“Happy birthday, Mr. Anderson! This is a gift from me and Chatty!”
The butler was flattered. He opened it in front of everyone and saw a piece of translucent jade.
Kai gritted his teeth and leaned closer to Nicole.
“Did you prepare this?”
Nicole pursed her lips and shrugged her shoulders.
“I swear, it’s not us. Also, if this was Clayton’s idea, judging by his personality, he’ll never let Chatty and Fischer share the same gift.”
Kai rubbed his chin and thought that it made sense.
Clayton coddled his daughter and treated her like treasure.
At that moment, Clayton also looked at the two children strangely. He was very surprised.
Chatty loved being praised and went to Clayton to ask for a hug.
Clayton wanted to know where she got the gift from, so he picked her up and went to the side, separating her from Fischer.
Levi was upstairs studying. Fischer quickly climbed upstairs without hesitation.
“Chatty, where did you get the present?”
Clayton asked her gently. His voice was soothing and pleasant to the ear.
Chatty replied, “Fish bought it!”
Clayton pursed his lips. “Did Fischer use his allowance?”
He thought that Fischer was quite sensible and had a better impression of this kid.
Clayton smiled.
