Chapter 501: 501: It Really is a Cool Autumn Wind (Combined into Two Chapters)

Wesley Gordon took the microphone, showing no surprise that Adrian Zhekova once again went onstage.

Adrian wouldn’t let Iris Doone off easily since she had tried to target Cindy Clarke.

However, Wesley thought Adrian would wait until the competition was over to deal with Iris.

He couldn’t have been more naive.

When the scumbag CEO wanted revenge, he didn’t wait a minute and got it immediately.

But after listening to Adrian’s words, the audience didn’t think he went too far.

“Good job!”

“That’s what Iris Doone, such a shameless villain, deserves!”

“Moreover, punishing Iris severely this time can serve as a warning to others, not to use such despicable means to win the competition.”

“That’s right, anyone who maliciously damages other contestants’ ingredients and sets traps for them will be punished severely! Let’s see who still dares!”

“Well done, Master Adrian!”

Amid the audience’s support, the live broadcast finally ended.

Nork City, Clarke Family.

Having watched the live broadcast, the Clarke family members had different feelings.

Joshua Clarke felt somewhat relieved that Cindy had won the competition again.

In the five years since Cindy had left home, she hadn’t given up on her cooking skills but instead honed them further.

This Yellow Croaker in soup, which many restaurants would offer in a simplified version, Joshua could actually cook.

But the real Yellow Croaker in soup, with a very complicated recipe, was just like the one Cindy made today.

Joshua didn’t think he could make it.

Without him, Cindy had made such great progress on her own.

It was clear that Cindy’s talent was truly outstanding.

Joshua felt relieved, but also heartbroken.

He thought that Cindy had been too heartless.

Since she had already been so successful, why couldn’t she secretly contact him?

Five years had passed, and if not for seeing her on TV, he would have known nothing.

All these expenses were coming out of her savings, so she naturally needed to save as much as she could.

She had come all this way to tell the Clarke family about Cindy, so wouldn’t they at least let her have a meal?

Hearing Wendy’s words, Zoe readily agreed: “I’ll shamelessly stay for dinner then. I know quite a bit about Cindy, and there’s a lot to tell.”

“Of course,” said Wendy with a fake smile, “Let’s talk while we eat.”

Just then, the housekeeper brought all the dishes to the dining table.

So everyone went to the dining room and sat down.

Wendy didn’t think much of Zoe.

She even wanted to freeload a meal. What a freeloader!

No wonder she insisted on staying to watch the live broadcast today.

She probably calculated that once the live broadcast was over, it would be dinner time.

Wendy didn’t say anything on the surface.

After the housekeeper filled their bowls with rice,

Wendy asked Zoe again about Cindy’s situation while they ate.

Zoe didn’t come up with any more excuses this time, or she would be mistaken for a liar.

“I don’t know if you know what Cindy is doing now?” Zoe asked as she began to speak.

“It seems like she’s doing something online or something like that, right?” Christy couldn’t figure it out and couldn’t explain it clearly.

She only heard a mouthful during the last round, but didn’t understand much.

Zoe inwardly looked down on Christy.

Christy was truly a vulgar, uneducated, and ignorant woman.

Wendy secretly tapped Christy’s toes under the table, telling her not to speak up all the time.

Zoe had almost figured out their intentions.

“As I recall, she used the name Cain Velman in the last round. Since you are a food blogger and a competitor, she should be a food blogger as well,” Wendy said.

Zoe thought that at least Wendy still had a brain.

Did this married couple give all their intelligence to their two daughters, leaving none for themselves?

“Yes,” Zoe nodded. “Do you have any understanding of food bloggers?”
