Chapter 113 Abigail’s Scheme
After texting with her mentors for a while, Annalise excitedly dragged Julian to redeem the prizes. It was a BMW worth millions of dollars, and she had also won various other prizes. Cosmetics, gold jewelry, hairdryers, mobile phones, laptops… They did fill up half the car trunk.
Many people did not leave after drawing their prizes. They were waiting to see Annalise receive the prizes. They were extremely envious when they saw her loading them into the car. To celebrate, the Rendezvous Plaza staff also threw confetti all around. Finally, Annalise and Julian drove away in the prize car.
Originally, Annalise had asked Julian to drive his car, but he disagreed. He called the chauffeur and asked him to drive his car back. He’ll go with Annalise. It was almost dark, so the two of them decided to dine outside. When they returned to the Parks’ residence after dinner, it was already past eight in the evening. At the Parks’ residence… Abigail started stewing the soup at 5 p.m.
She did not even cook it herself. She instructed the kitchen to cook it. She made a list of ingredients for the kitchen staff to put into the soup. The ingredients were mainly fish collagen, chicken, and a few common medicinal ingredients, such as yam, cinnamon, ginseng, and red dates.
They were ordinary medicinal ingredients that were full of nourishment. It had the effect of regulating one’s blood and internal energy. Most people would add them when stewing soup, too.
In addition to these things, Abigail picked four pieces of ginger and said to the kitchen, “Cut these into thin slices and boil it. The fish collagen might smell, so the ginger slices should lessen the fishiness.”
“Okay, Mrs Parks. The staff immediately obeyed. Knowing that the soup was made for Samuel, she praised Abigail. “Master Samuel would be really happy to see how filial you are.”
There had been no need for Abigail to remind the staff. She would still add ginger to the soup, just not so much. Abigail smiled. “Simmer the soup well. Make sure it tastes good.” “Don’t worry, Mrs. Parks.” The kitchen staff agreed happily. At eight o’clock, Abigail asked the staff to serve the soup. The servant immediately scooped a bowl.
Abigail drank the soup and praised the staff for her hard work. Not only was it rich and fragrant, but it also tasted exceptionally delicious. The staff was overjoyed. She repeatedly expressed that as long as Abigail liked it, she would make it every day.
“I’ll have to trouble you in the future, then,” Abigail said politely. Not only would Abigail have the servant make the soup, but she would also have her take the blame someday. The servant was flattered. “No trouble at all, Mrs. Parks. I’m just performing my duty.” Abigail smiled. “Alright, help me pack this soup. I’ll send it to Grandpa.”
