Behind The Spotlight Chapter 168
"D- Dad, I was just..." Rico stiffened as he realized that his father had arrived, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop instantly. Elijah smiled at him, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. Rico swallowed hard and lowered his head.
"I apologize for my bad behavior."
Elijah casually waved his hand and sat down like a king surveying his kingdom. He looked at the people sitting on the golden chairs. Everyone was present, even the young children who could only babble. They were taken care of by the maids. As for their mothers, they were in a different part of the mansion, strictly separated from this formal gathering.
The master of the family nodded his head, as if approving the arrangement.
"Let's start our meal."
The maids entered the dining hall with food carts and prepared different meals that matched the children's tastes after hours of careful planning and discussion.
Some of the children were allergic to certain foods, hence the dishes were different for each person. Even the babies were only served fruit purée.
Everyone in the kitchen researched so hard not to mess up this situation, because serving the wrong dish here was equivalent to losing a job. Each child's disposition regarding food had been studied. One mistake could cost them their entire career as chefs.
