Chapter 941: River Kneels at the Gates of the Pace Family

At that moment, Alina tasted the noodles Jared handed to her. The familiar flavor filled her mouth, and her expression shifted several times before she managed to compose herself. She didn't want to seem too obvious and give herself away. "Is it not good?" Ruud's heart sank.

To avoid hurting Ruud's confidence, Alina quickly shook her head. "No, I think it's all good. Each dish has its own unique flavor. If I had to choose, I'd call it a tie."

Tina, "..."

Jared, "..."

Alina's blatant favoritism touched Ruud, though he already knew the outcome of this little competition. To ensure fairness, the bowls had been mixed, their ownership revealed only by hidden marks. But at this point, there wasn't much need to check.

Ruud was well aware of his own culinary skills-or lack thereof. Even he couldn't stomach the food he made. Only his wife had always supported him, encouraging everything he wanted to try.

Seeing the disappointment in Ruud's eyes, Alina gently took his hand and comforted him, her voice soft. "It's okay. Cooking just isn't your strength. That doesn't mean you're not a good father. Tina is all grown up now. Express yourself however feels right for you. Don't force yourself to learn these things."

Tina unexpectedly chimed in, "I agree."

In truth, she just didn't want to endure another round of Ruud's cooking-it was pure torture.

Ruud's eyes lit up. "Daughter, does this mean you've accepted me?"

Tina deadpanned, "I'm just agreeing that you shouldn't cook."

The light in Ruud's eyes dimmed again.

Jared's lips curved slightly. "If you're interested, I can help."

Still fuming, Ruud's temper flared at Jared's teasing remark. "I don't need you! I have someone to teach me!"
