“Stop howling. The chef is not here.” Rebecca came out of the kitchen. Zane looked at her and asked, “Where did the chef go?”

“In the afternoon, the chef went out to make purchases but never came back. Just now, I called them, and they said that on the way back, there was a landslide, so they were blocked by it and couldn’t come back.” Rebecca shrugged.

“What else can we do? We have to make it ourselves. I went to the kitchen just now and found that there are plenty of ingredients there already.” Rebecca pointed in the direction of the kitchen.

Hearing that, Tyler wailed. “You mean to say that we have to cook by ourselves?”

“Or what?” Rebecca rolled her eyes.

 

The corners of Zane’s mouth twitched as he said, “Does anyone here know how to cook?”

Once these words came out, everyone fell silent. After a while, except for Sonia, they shook their heads one after another, saying that they didn’t. After all, it was a fact that all the people present were from wealthy families and had been served with a silver spoon in their mouths since childhood, so they certainly didn’t know how to cook.

 

“It’s over then. It looks like we won’t have anything to eat tonight.” Zane touched his stomach and spoke with a bitter smile.

Rebecca gave him a sidelong glance, saying, “It’s all because of you. You were the one bringing me here and causing me to have no food.”

In the end, although he did not directly bully Sonia, his inaction was in itself a form of
