Shaun had gone to the side to answer a call. Meanwhile, Hera and Samantha sat by the bench, focused on eating the food. Bernard came over with some grilled lamb skewers. "Have a try."

Hera picked up a skewer and took a bite.

"Is it good?" Bernard asked.

Hera nodded and handed the lamb skewer over to Bernard, and Bernard immediately took a bite off of the place she had eaten.

Nicholas watched them and immediately brought his skewers over. "Try mine too."

Looking at the heap of burnt skewers, Hera fell silent and did not move.

"Try it! Are you afraid I'll poison you?" Nicholas urged while picking up a skewer and taking a bite. However, he immediately proceeded to spit the food out.

Then, he reached for a skewer from Bernard's plate and took a bite. His eyes immediately brightened as he asked, "I followed everything you did, but why is there such a big difference in taste?" He took another bite and added, "It's delicious!"

Bernard said coldly, "That means that you're still no match for me no matter how hard you try."

Nicholas was at a loss for words and immediately felt that the skewer in his hand had lost all of its flavor.

He couldn't help but question himself after losing to Bernard consecutively.
