CHAPTER 335 YOU ARE NOTHING

Shane immediately sneered, "What a load of hogwash! How dare you claim you've attended a state

banquet?"

"Believe it or not, I have," Nathan replied calmly.

Hank wanted to set his daughter and Shane up today, so he wasn't in the mood to hear Nathan's boast.

He was impatient as he said, "Enough, we are not here to listen to your nonsense. Ask Chef Jake to

serve the dishes now."

Shane grinned. "Yes, serve the food now. We'll show the braggart what a real state banquet is."

Soon, successive delectable and mouthwatering gourmet dishes such as Baked French Onion Soup,

Maryland Crab Cakes, and Braised Partridge were served.

Hank and Prudence whipped out their phones to take photos to upload to their social media before

enjoying the meal. Everyone at the table was full of praises for the dishes.

Even Kylie had to admit the dishes were delicious.

Hank was evidently elated. "Thanks to you, Mr. Ortiz, we get to enjoy the state banquet menu.”

Prudence had an unctuous smile on her face too. "I heard Indigo would only serve their most

distinguished guests the state banquet menu. Not everyone can order it.”

Shane was pleased. He glanced at Nathan casually and taunted, "Haha! It's fine. After this meal, that

braggart can confidently claim he had eaten at a state banquet."

The braggart that he meant was Nathan.

Everyone's eyes fell on Nathan, who remained calm as he fed his daughter.

Queenie inquired, "Papa, you've been to a state banquet, right? How is it different from this one?"

Penny felt awkward when she heard her daughter's words. Her husband was merely boasting, but her

daughter was the only one who believed he had attended one.

Of all the questions she could ask, did she have to ask that?

Shane, Hank, and Prudence burst into laughter. "Yes, Nathan. You said you've attended the state

banquet. Tell us, how is it different from the dishes served today?"

Penny and her family gazed at Nathan worriedly as they were afraid he might embarrass himself.

However, Nathan was unperturbed. He replied, "The taste is almost the same. But there's one dish

missing—the Beef

Wellington."

Shane scoffed, "The Beef Wellington is the most famous dish in the state banquet.

Everyone knows that. It wasn't served today as it has to be prepared in advance."

"Besides, the dish that Steve Lewis is highly famed for is the Beef Wellington. Jake might be his top

apprentice and had learned most of Steve's skills, but he thought he wasn't skilled enough to prepare

the Beef Wellington yet. Thus, he had decided not to prepare this dish to avoid ruining Steve's

reputation."

"In Indigo, only the Michelin-starred chef, Steve Lewis, could prepare a perfect Beef Wellington."

"However, he hadn't been to the kitchen for some time. I called him to ask him to prepare this dish, but

he rejected me." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Kylie snorted, "That means you failed to ask him to prepare the Beef Wellington, right?"

Shane replied defiantly, "It's not only me. No one can ask him to cook."

After listening to his explanation, Queenie was certain that the Beef Wellington must be a delicious

dish.

She gazed at Nathan eagerly and inquired in a tiny voice, "Papa, I wanna eat the Beef Wellington. Can

I?"

Nathan patted her head. "Okay. If you want to eat that, I'll ask the Michelin-starred chef to prepare it for

you."

His words shocked everyone at the table. Coոtent оf

Penny and her family fell into an awkward silence.Nathan is getting too far!

Meanwhile, Hank and Prudence were snickering.
