After the Secret Wedding Rise of My Queen

Chapter 270 You Want Me To Eat That?

It wasn't just Harriet-everyone present was from the high society, the wealthy, and the elite. Very few of them ever stepped into a kitchen. Even when they did, it was usually just to make something simple, like a sandwich or a basic vegetable salad. Barbecue, however, seemed deceptively simple-but it took quite a bit of skill.

To be honest, if someone had never barbecued before or only did it occasionally, the chances of overcooking or burning the food were inevitable.

"We're just waiting for her to embarrass herself, right? Just wait, I'll be sure to take the chance to tease her," Vernon said, just as the irresistible scent of grilling meat hit his nose.

He sniffed the air and followed the smell, freezing when he saw Isabel at the grill.

"Wow, it smells amazing!"

Though he didn't want to admit it, it did smell incredible-better than any barbecue he had ever had before.

"It's just meat. Anyone could grill it without any spices, and it would still smell great. But that doesn't mean Isabel knows what she's doing. Just wait, she'll probably burn it soon enough," Harriet said, convinced Isabel couldn't grill. Harriet herself had no skill with barbeque. She had tried before and failed miserably.

After a moment, Isabel sprinkled her homemade seasoning on the meat.

"Oh my god, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good!" someone exclaimed, unable to stop themselves from drooling.

Despite their dislike for Isabel, even Harriet and Vernon couldn't deny how tempting the smell was.

Rachel, who was also barbecuing, had initially planned to wait for Isabel to burn her meat, and then offer her own perfectly barbecue pieces to Xander.

But...

She found herself growing just as hungry from Isabel's grilling.

Yvette walked over to Isabel, curiously eyeing the seasoning in her hand.

"Isabel, what's in that seasoning? It doesn't look like cumin or anything I recognize," Yvette asked, voicing the question everyone else was thinking.

"I made it myself," Isabel replied casually, not missing a beat as she continued flipping the meat.
