See You Never, Mr. Lamont by Coral

Chapter 153

Chapter 153 A Good Cook
Yvette glared at Everett angrily.
Originally, she only wanted to come alone, but Everett shamelessly came by himself, and even brought Edmond along.
Upon seeing another man in Claudia’s house, Yvette was consumed with jealousy.
Horace knew about him, often seeing this man in the news. The last child recognition incident also caused a big uproar.
Between Horace and that celebrity, she was a staunch supporter of
Horace.
“Did we come at the wrong time?” Yvette asked.
“I actually think we arrived just in time,” Everett said with a mischievous smile, reaching out one hand to wrap around Yvette’s neck and the other around Edmond’s neck, laughing like an old fox.
Yvette sneered and forcefully elbowed backwards, causing Everett to scream in pain as he clutched his chest, his face contorting into a grimace.
Edmond’s eyes, as dark as obsidian, flickered with an inexplicable gleam, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, as if he was smiling but not really.
Claudia stood stiffly, feeling embarrassed as if she had been caught and exposed in an affair.
Upon further thought, she had already gotten divorced, so it shouldn’t
have mattered to him if she went out to dinner with friends.
Claudia smiled and placed the shoes neatly, saying to them, “Come in.”
Horace looked at her and said gently, “You go greet your friends first. There’s still food in the pot. I’ll go and attend to some things. Let me know if you need anything.”
After speaking, she glanced at Edmond with a faint look.
“Capable in both the hall and the kitchen, able to earn money and handsome as well, tsk tsk…” Yvette praised with admiration, nodding repeatedly, very satisfied.
Claudia smiled bitterly and explained, “My brother asked him to come.”
Thinking of Horace’s enthusiasm, she also felt a bit helpless.
When Horace was cooking, she wanted to help, but as soon as she entered the kitchen, she was chased out by him. In the end, she could only serve the dishes and assist a little.

The food had just been served when Yvette and the others arrived.
Edmond remained silent, his expression cold and impassive, revealing no signs of joy or anger.
After being scolded by Yvette, Everett became much quieter. Yvette could hit him hard, but he couldn’t fight back, so he simply closed his mouth.
“Claudia, this house is great!” Yvette looked around and discovered that it was a large flat with at least 200 square meters, decorated in a simple yet luxurious style, high-end and practical.
There was also a small garden outside the balcony, with a variety of
flowers, plants, and trees, typical of an aerial garden layout.
“It’s not bad, but this house is a bit too big for me to live alone.” Even if she really likes this house, if Horace is not willing to sell it to her, she can only look for another house.
Upon hearing these words, Edmond’s eyes darkened, becoming deep. and mysterious.
The restaurant was open-plan, allowing a clear view of Horace busy in the kitchen.
He chopped the vegetables with swift and decisive movements, his posture tall and graceful. Despite the simplicity of cooking, he performed it like a show, pleasing to the eye.
If it weren’t for knowing that he was the young master of the Ferguson
family, I would have thought he was a chef hired from somewhere.
The dining table was on the balcony outdoors, enjoying the flowers and stargazing, how pleasant it was.
Yvette looked at the dishes on the table and exclaimed, “Wow!”
There are various dishes from different countries, which are appetizing and mouthwatering, both in terms of appearance and aroma.
Claudia was amazed when she saw these dishes. The presentation of the food was absolutely on par with a Michelin-starred restaurant.
Seeing these dishes, Everett exclaimed in astonishment, “I didn’t expect this guy to be so good at cooking. He must have a natural talent, right?”
He glanced at Edmond, whose face looked extremely unpleasant.
Edmond could do everything, except cooking. In the early days, it was

because he had no interest, but later it was because he was afraid of
fire.
Seeing Claudia’s surprised expression, Edmond’s thin lips tightened into a line.
“Knowing that Claudia’s friend was coming, I prepared several dishes, hoping they would suit your taste,” Horace took off his apron, smiling gently, portraying the demeanor of a gracious host.
Edmond snorted coldly and glanced at the dishes on the table with a knife-like gaze, without saying a word.
Everyone else sat down and ate, only he sat still without moving.
Hørace glanced up and smiled knowingly, “Why isn’t Mr. Lamont eating?”
It seemed like Edmond was not in a good mood, so he deliberately steered the conversation toward himself.
Edmond’s thin lips curved slightly, his smile dazzling yet chilly. “It didn’t suit my taste.”
He leaned back in the chair, casually stretching his long legs, his slender fingers moved slightly, his posture lazy and stern.
His tone was very cold, and he did not hide his displeasure.
Claudia frowned and glanced at him.
Was he here to cause trouble today?
Horace worked so hard on cooking for such a long time, even if it didn’t taste good, he couldn’t treat someone else’s kindness as fish liver and lungs.
She took a piece of chicken and exclaimed, “It’s delicious.”
After finishing speaking, he looked at Edmond and said, “Since it doesn’t suit your taste, why don’t you go to the living room and rest?”
