Chapter 96
Catherine only released her hold on Audrey after the latter had found her footing.
Audrey was still in shock. If Catherine hadn’t caught her in time, she would have fallen flat on her face. Even if she didn’t become a cripple after falling so many steps, she would probably end up disfigured. She felt that she would have PTSD of stairs from now on.
“Kathy, thank you so much! I would have no clue what to do if it wasn’t for you!”
When the viewers heard Audrey’s words, they couldn’t help but type out sarcastic remarks.
They all thought that Catherine would abuse her act of saving Audrey and start treating Audrey even worse than before.
Catherine disappointed the viewers. She didn’t say a word and resumed climbing the stairs while holding Audrey’s luggage in one hand.
Audrey looked at Catherine’s back view and immediately felt her brain functions grind to a halt.
How was her sister climbing the stairs so effortlessly with her suitcase? The same suitcase that took everything out of her to drag it up halfway up the stairs.
Could her sister be Hercules?
Audrey caught up to her and couldn’t help but ask, “Kathy, is it heavy? Do you want us to carry it together?”
“No need!” Rejected Catherine in a cold voice. Her voice was very apathetic.
Audrey released her hand on the suitcase subconsciously. Audrey had a much easier time now that she no longer needed to heave the suitcase around. She even found the energy to start chatting with
Catherine. “Kathy, how are you so strong? It took everything out of me to lug that suitcase around, yet you are moving it with just one hand!”
Catherine continued to look forward without even throwing a glance at her. She said coldly,” I’ve done a lot of manual labor, so I’m strong!”
Audrey thought about it and felt it made sense. Catherine had spent her childhood in the countryside. She must have had to do a lot of manual labor.
Audrey felt her heart ache upon reaching that conclusion.
Kathy must have suffered a lot in the countryside. Audrey decided that she would try her best to take good care of her from now on.
The two eventually arrived in front of the house. It wasn’t until they entered the house that they realized there wasn’t even an air-conditioning unit inside.
There was only a worn-down oscillating fan.
Audrey couldn’t help but start complaining. On the other hand, Catherine took off her baseball cap quietly, tied up her hair, and started resting.
When the camera captured Catherine’s face, the viewers went crazy.
The viewers commented, “Oh my god, she is so good-looking!”
“Beautiful and cool at the same time. I’m in love…”
“Why didn’t she become a celebrity? She’s definitely pretty enough.”
“What an amazing pair of sisters. Having the elder sister be pretty is one thing, but who would have expected the younger sister to be even prettier?”
“My morals are guided by my eyes. I’m a fan now!”
“Everyone, have you realized that she doesn’t have makeup on? My god, kill me…”
The comment section took a complete 180 the instant Catherine revealed her face.
After arranging her stuff, Audrey decided to reward Catherine, who had a long day.
Since it was their first meal, the production crew made an exception and provided the with some ingredients for them to make a meal of guests
Audrey looked at the ingredients. Neither had a big appetite, so there should be sufficient to fill them. She decided to show off her culinary skills by making Catherine a nice meal.
Catherine didn’t eat much in the morning. She definitely needed to eat something for lunch!
By the time Audrey’s team entered their house, the other teams had already begun eating.
Cindy’s team’s dishes looked the most appetizing. After all, she was a mother. Cindy looked. closer to life when she cooked, which drove her fans. crazy.
Although Kate Bell and Ryan Bell’s cooking wasn’t as great, they had their meals at least.
They fed each other, displaying their affection for each other over and over. Their fans were highly hyped to witness the pair being all lovey-dovey.
The Parker brothers surprised everyone. Nobody expected the popular streamers to be great at cooking.
The elder brother was responsible for cleaning and cutting, while the younger brother was responsible for cooking. They two made a great team.
The brothers explained afterward that they had come from a poor family and started working at a young age. At one point, they even worked as helpers in a hotel kitchen. It was only natural that they had some cooking skills.
That won them the pity of many viewers who felt that they really had a hard time growing up. Their viewer count spiked again, and a bunch of new viewers became their fans.
Things were kind of a joke when it came to Audrey’s team.
Audrey looked at the ingredients available and decided to cook some homemade dishes. From what she understood, Catherine liked spicy food. Making a spicy dish must be the right move.
She took the eggs and was on the way to the sink to wash them. Unfortunately, her hand slipped, and she broke one of them.
There were only three eggs to begin with. Now there were just two.
What an unlucky start. Audrey decided to make something else instead to change her luck, hopefully. She raised the knife and prepared to cut the meat. In the next moment, a cry was heard. “Ah…” She cut her finger.
The scream finally alerted Catherine.
Audrey heard her footsteps and looked at her with panic in her eyes while covering her bleeding hand. Audrey’s first reaction was to apologize. “Kathy, it looks like I messed up again.
Catherine didn’t say a word. She dragged her by her non-injured hand onto a chair. She opened her backpack, found the band-aids, and started dressing Audrey’s wound.
The cut was small, so just one band-aid was enough.
The entire process was both quick and professional, which was very impressive.
When Catherine wasn’t talking, she emanated a chilling aura that scared people off from approaching her.
Audrey didn’t dare to make her mad. She held her breath and didn’t dare to move a muscle. She had watched a lot of cooking shows. It looked so easy when the cooking streamers made the dishes. Why was it so difficult when she tried to make them herself?
Audrey frowned and looked upset.
Catherine left Audrey after dressing her wound.
Audrey followed her in a hurry upon seeing her leave.
Catherine entered the kitchen. She scanned the ingredients and understood roughly the dishes that Audrey was trying to make.
Before Audrey realized what was happening, Catherine had picked up the kitchen knife. It was now too late to stop her.
Audrey held her breath as she watched Catherine. She was worried that Catherine would cut her hand like she had.
A few minutes passed, and Audrey was still frozen like a statue. She was in awe. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
The viewers were amazed too.
“Wow, what incredible knife skills! The meat was cut into identical strips as if a machine made the cuts!”
“Cook here. I can guarantee that she has at least ten years of experience working with knives to have this level of proficiency!”
“Don’t you guys find this scene slightly creepy? A girl with a poker face chopping up meat… It feels kind of…”
“I’m that guy who said that my eyes guide my morals. I’m willing to be the meat if this girl does the chopping…”
Not only were Catherine’s movements clean, but they were also fast. It didn’t take long for her to finish cutting all the meat.
Just like Audrey envisioned, she heated some oil and put the raw ingredients in.
Ten minutes later, two sizzling hot dishes were ready.
It wasn’t until Catherine started carrying the dishes to the dining table that Audrey realized she had finished cooking. She quickly volunteered to help. “Kathy, I’ll get the rice!” However, she was shocked when she opened the rice cooker.
