Chapter 117: Cooked Meals
"Your Majesty, can we also bring cooked food since Alwin can teleport it?" Arabella suggested.
The thought of all those people, especially the children not being able to eat clean and proper meals for a few more days bothered her.
"Preparing all the food supplies to be sent to them would take time so maybe we should give them cooked meals so they would be able to eat proper meals as soon as possible.
"After all, once you catch Dempsey’s men, no one would bring them food. They must be tired from working in the mines all the time as well. And even cooking must be difficult with all other resources not present.
"We have a lot of chefs in the palace. If the food they make is not enough to cater to everyone, then we can focus on giving meals to the children first," she explained to convince them.
[Her Majesty cares so much! Everyone would be overwhelmed to be able to eat twice a day. They would be touched that it was the Empress herself who thought of giving them ready-made meals too.] Nadia was delighted with her suggestion.
But Arabella gulped when Ferdinand and Raymond turned silent and stared at her.
’Did I overstep? Did I seem too confident because Ferdinand had been asking my thoughts earlier? Should I have suggested only when we are alone?’
Even if Ferdinand had been listening to her, they had to take care of his image. Listening to her all the time might make him look like a loser to others especially since to everyone, she’s just an eighteen-year-old naive and sheltered princess.
