The Villainess Redeems Herself, The Beast Husbands are in a Daily Love Battle-Chapter 26: Much Bigger
"Miss Kane, you’re too formal. You’re the female master of my sons, calling me ’mother’ in the future wouldn’t be inappropriate. This little matter is nothing."
However, upon hearing these words, Selene Kane became even more uneasy inside.
She realized that her actions not only offended the noble guests present but also inadvertently "delivered" a "lover."
If this incident were to get out, it could become a medium-sized scandal.
Especially if the Empress finds out and considers it a negligence of the Osborne Family.
Then the Osborne Family’s reputation might suffer greatly among the noble circles.
Thinking of this, Selene Kane’s heart felt even more complex emotions.
Selene Kane remembered clearly that on this Beast World, many primitive customs were still preserved.
One of which included eating raw, uncooked meat.
Even the noble classes living in the palace, without worries of food and clothing, only simply cut up their prey, grill it.
At most, they rub some spices on it, far from the level of smoky cooking she was accustomed to back home.
At this moment, the kitchen was bustling with activity.
The air was filled with the scent of meat and the smoky aroma of firewood.
"If you don’t mind, let me personally handle today’s main dish."
She smiled slightly, her tone steady.
"I will ensure every ingredient is properly processed."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Evan Sinclair standing beside her smirked coldly.
His deep blue eyes narrowed, filled with disdain.
Having lived in this mansion for years, he had never seen her set foot in the kitchen.
Moreover, she had no respect for the people who labored for her.
Especially Hayden.
Not once did he personally prepare delicacies, carefully plating them, and cautiously served them to her, only to be thrown into the trash without a word.
Whenever he recalled this, Evan Sinclair couldn’t help but close his eyes, clenching his hands.
He didn’t want to recall, yet couldn’t forget.
Once, she even threw a whole chunk of bloody raw meat into a cage.
"Eat it yourself or carry it out with your mouth."
He was already exhausted, his will almost fully destroyed.
Yet, even so, he stubbornly refused to kneel.
But she used mental pressure to force him gradually to his knees.
Eventually, he ended up like a drowned dog, lying on the ground, mouth open to snatch the still-bloody raw meat.
Recalling these moments, Evan Sinclair’s face turned pale, as if drained of all blood, his eyes fixed on Selene Kane.
He almost fell into her trap again!
What infuriated him more was earlier when she held him and his brother like pets.
At that moment, he felt humiliated, almost wanting to slap himself.
At this point, he could no longer hold back, and with a cold voice, he mocked: "You can play your little tricks at home, and I won’t interfere, not that I care. But now, Her Majesty the Empress is seated in the grand hall above. Are you planning to use your underhanded tactics to harm Her Majesty?"
Upon hearing this sudden accusation, Selene Kane merely blinked, her face showed no change.
"Harm?"
She softly retorted.
"Are you making this claim because you’ve tasted the dishes I cooked myself?" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Indeed, he had never actually tasted the dishes she cooked.
But his intuition told him.
She was definitely not a content person.
He quickly regained composure, turned, and his gaze fell on Lady Wynn, full of anxiety.
"Mother, please don’t agree to let her interfere with this main dish. If something goes wrong, and Her Majesty’s anger descends, who can bear this responsibility?! Who can shoulder it?!"
Lady Wynn was also torn inside.
That merman was a precious ingredient their team had gone to great lengths to catch and transport from the sea.
After all, Beast Clan inherently feared water so profoundly they almost never actively engaged with sea creatures.
This was why the invitation for this banquet had specifically included the "Merman Feast."
As a heavy dish on tonight’s dining table.
Moreover, she had deliberately, in a probing manner, extended an invitation to the Beast Clan Empress.
Inviting her to personally taste this "rare guest."
Lady Wynn’s intention was to highlight the extraordinary nature of tonight’s banquet.
But now someone wants to change the main dish on the spot, which would undoubtedly make the situation awkward.
But facing Selene Kane, Lady Wynn gently shook her head.
"Miss Kane, we certainly understand and sincerely appreciate your intentions. But tonight’s main dish has already been decided. Suddenly switching to another dish might make the guests suspicious, even think we were not thorough in our preparations."
Before she finished speaking, Selene Kane had already accepted a pair of wooden chopsticks from a nearby attendant.
She raised her wrist lightly, gently picking up the long hair that blocked her view.
Then with a swift twist of her wrist, she skillfully curled up a strand of smooth hair.
Her tone was firm.
"Lady Wynn, please rest assured, I won’t let this banquet fall into any awkward situations. Please give me this opportunity."
Ethan Sinclair, who had been silent, remained unusually so.
He quietly watched the currently spirited Selene Kane.
The familiar figure seemed to gradually overlap with the image in his memory.
Clearly, she appeared in front of him every day.
Yet recently, she invoked an inexplicable emotional response within him.
Each meeting made his heart race unexpectedly.
Even more surprising to himself was his deep-rooted aversion to Selene Kane.
Now, it had quietly dissolved over half.
Seeing Evan Sinclair about to speak, seeming to want to say something, Lady Wynn raised her hand to interrupt him.
Lady Wynn’s gaze lingered on Selene Kane’s face briefly, and finally opened slowly.
"Since Miss Kane is so sincere and confident, I entrust this one time to you. You’ll be responsible for this banquet."
At that moment, Selene Kane’s lips curled into a smile.
Then she turned her head, scanning the kitchen surroundings, beginning to seriously select usable ingredients.
She was not bragging or joking.
She indeed knew how to cook.
Though rarely doing it in front of people, she never forgot this skill.
But right now, her real concern was whether the kitchen prepared for this Beast Clan banquet could provide the materials she needed.
She silently assessed.
The originally planned main dish for the banquet was Mermaid, and now she could only use fish.
As long as it’s fish meat, it should temporarily substitute.
And the Beast Clan’s food habits weren’t as complex and demanding as humans’.
As long as it looks passable and isn’t inedible, it should suffice.
Sure enough, upon checking the kitchen’s various ingredients, she found a meager variety of vegetables.
Scant in number, with some being ones she’d never encountered before.
But fortunately, the kitchen still had a stock of various-shaped fish.
Though they appeared not to be common types, they could substitute Mermaid and make a main dish to cope with this banquet.
She swiftly grabbed a fish to process, her fingers skillfully passing over the scales, then deftly sliced open the fish’s belly.
However, unexpectedly, the fish’s strength was much greater than anticipated.
