Chapter 598
There were many people sitting in the Collins family's house. As soon as Kelly entered, she immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"You must be Kelly, right?" Dylan sitting in the middle said.
"Yes, Grandpa. Kelly generously handed over the tie in her hand. "I don't know what you like, so I casually picked one as a gift. Please don't mind."
"Why would I?" Dylan smiled brightly and waved at Kelly lovingly. "Come here, come to me."
Kelly walked over and handed the tie to Dylan.
She was actually a little nervous. She was worried that Dylan would despise her gift, so she lowered her head and felt a little embarrassed.
However, to her surprise, Dylan especially liked the tie. When he saw it, he was immediately pleasantly surprised. "Kelly, good girl. How did you know that I liked this tie? I took a fancy to it a long time ago. "But its color is too eye-catching. I'm afraid people will laugh at me for being disrespectful. But now it is great. You gave it to me as a gift. I can wear it out happily."
Kelly did not expect her gift to be so likable. She smiled uncontrollably.
When Penelope, who was standing aside, saw this scene, she pursed her lips and felt a little uncomfortable. She thought, 'Kelly is just a wild girl who had just returned from outside. What right does she have to be loved by Dylan? In the past, Dylan doted on me the most.
Not to be outdone, Penelope took a step forward and pouted. "Grandpa, do you despise me because you have Kelly now?"
"Oh, don't say that." Dylan pointed at Penelope. "What nonsense? You're all my good children."
"I knew you dote on me." Penelope took out an exquisite image and showed it off. "Do you like it? Grandpa, I specially chose this for you."
"I like it." Dylan smiled and nodded. However, his gaze only swept past the exquisite image before quickly returning to the tie. He held the tie in his hand and looked like he could not bear to part with it. Clearly, he liked it very much.
Everyone was a little surprised when they saw this. They thought, 'Dylan has seen all kinds of good things. Why would he like such a worthless tie? It is really strange.
"Dinner is about to start." Dylan said to Kelly, "Later, you can sit next to me. This is your home. Don't be shy."
What Dylan said to Kelly made everyone completely stunned!
The seats on both sides of Dylan had always been occupied by Dylan's eldest son and second son. The younger member could only move back. They did not expect Kelly to have the right to sit beside Dylan the moment she came over.
This love for Kelly made Penelope very jealous.
She was unhappy and wanted to s say something, but someone beat her to it. It was her cousin, Millie Black.
Millie also had been holding it in for a long time. It was fine if she was not as likable as Penelope in the past, but now, Kelly had come here. What was this?
"Grandpa, I've learned a new dish. Can I make it for you to have a try?'I'm sure you will love it," Millie asked sweetly.
"Sure." Dylan was happy.
Seeing this, the eldest of the grandchildren, Bart said, "Grandpa, don't let Millie cook alone. All of us juniors will personally cook for you. When the time comes, you can comment on who cooks the best. How about that?"
Bart's words were agreed by everyone.
Dylan was getting on in years, and his health had been deteriorating over the years. All of the family members knew that Dylan wanted to prepare a will, so the younger generation of the Collins family all displayed their abilities to please him, hoping to get more assets.
It was obvious that cooking to show filial piety had become a competition. Everyone looked calm on the surface, but their eyes were filled with desire.
All of them would try their best.
Only Kelly stood awkwardly at the side, not knowing what to say.
She was nervous. Even if it was a singing competition, it would be fine. She did not know how to cook at all.
All these years, she had been training in secret. She had learned a little about everything except cooking.
How unlucky!
Kelly frantically racked her brain for ways to cook various dishes. In the end, there was only one dish that she knew how to cook.
That was Fried Eggs.
This dish was actually not bad. It was suitable for both young and old. Most people liked it.
Kelly felt confident.
However, when she entered the kitchen and saw everyone showing their abilities, she completely lost her confidence.
Bart cooked Grilled Meat. The process was very complicated.
Penelope cooked fish. Although the cooking method was simple, the ingredients were very precious. It had just been transported here by air from the seaside today.
Millie had actually cooked jerky. Her knife skills were superb, which shocked others.
Kelly was speechless and she thought, 'Are you still the young masters and young ladies of wealthy families? Do you graduate from a Chef School? What should I do know?" Compared to others, Kelly's dish was a little ordinary.
Seeing that she did not move, the chef in the kitchen thought that she was short of ingredients. "Miss Kelly, just tell me what ingredients you need," she said.
Kelly smiled awkwardly. "Do you have eggs?"
Hearing her words, Penelope laughed hysterically. "You're not going to cook Fried Eggs, are you?"
Penelope turned to Bart. "Bart, someone would lose this time."
Bart and Millie could not help but laugh.
Kelly also felt that the Fried Eggs were ordinary, but she really did not know how to cook other dishes. She could only force herself.
After the dishes were prepared, they were brought to the front and placed in front of Dylan.
The four people stand beside the dishes they cooked.
Dylan walked to Bart's side and picked up his fork. He picked up a piece of meat and tasted it. "Yes, it tastes good."
Then, Dylan walked to Penelope's side and ate a piece of fish. "It's very fresh."
He walked to Millie's side and ate her food. "Oh, not bad."
Finally, it was Kelly's turn.
Kelly had never been so embarrassed. She lowered her head in embarrassment.
She wanted to say something, but before she could say anything, Dylan was pleasantly surprised. "This dish is good. Kelly, good girl. I like it the most. This dish of yours is really delicious." After saying that, Dylan focused on eating this dish and completely ignored the other three dishes.
Everyone's eyes almost popped out in surprise. They thought, 'Dylan is too biased. This is too much!” Kelly stood rooted to the ground in disbelief.
She thought, 'Could it be that I am the most lucky person? The elders like me very much. I am too lucky!"
