Chapter 72: Hearty Meal
Keira’s face reddened when she saw who were inside the Conference Room B. How she wanted to take back time at that moment and return to the times her mom asked her to watch and learn cooking stuff.
"Oh, dinner is here. It was prepared by our juniors and I’m sure it’s good. Come on inside," said Torin with a wide grin and gestured to Keira and May to serve the food.
Keira gave May a worn-out look because she suddenly felt nervous. She was well versed in the saying that a key to a man’s heart was through his stomach. That was why after the training she had already programmed herself to study cooking.
Just why the hell Torin did not even bother to mention who was the specific person they were about cooking for and yet she thought that it would be for soldiers receiving a punishment since Torin seemed to be anticipating it. That was the reason they say that they couldn’t cook without any problem.
Then they started to serve the food, she twitched her mouth as she tried to bow her head down, avoiding any eye contact with the people inside the room.
She couldn’t bear to look at anyone inside that room at all. It seemed to be an important meeting because Jeru was also present, together with General Lei and one more Lieutenant under his command.
’I will kill this Torin!’ She cursed inwardly.
She wanted the ground to eat her wholly at that time when General Lei, her father’s closest friend, spoke, "Oh, I did not know that you can cook?"
Keira smiled lightly as she greeted Uncle Lei, who was smiling widely to her, more of a teasing smile because he knew well that Keira did not know anything about cooking and the moment he saw the dish he couldn’t help but chortle.
"I’m actually full and won’t eat tonight. Please enjoy the meal, I’m sure these two soldiers have put all their efforts into cooking this, gentlemen," said Torin as he gestured May not to give him a serving.
Zach narrowed his eyes as he glared at Torin. He could already sense that Torin was up to something not good, so he said, "Soldier Kim, don’t skip Lieutenant Jang and give him his food!"
