novelxo Chapter 332
Everyone picked their boxes in an orderly fashion and opened them.
Connor's box had eggs and corn. Diana found a sandwich and a bottle of mineral water in hers. Barrett's box contained a simple cheese and ham wrap along with a bottle of milk. Chloe, Pax, and Kalilah ended up with three empty boxes.
Kalilah hadn't eaten dinner the night before. Coupled with getting roughed up by Chloe in the middle of the night, her body was already on the verge of giving out. She was desperate for something to eat. When she saw her box was empty, she lost it-she threw the box away angrily, then squatted down, covering her face as she burst into tears.
The live stream was filled with sympathetic comments.
Pax, seeing his own empty box, didn't seem bothered. He walked straight over to Chloe and flashed a brilliant smile, "Look at us, picking the same empty box!"
Chloe glanced up and rolled her eyes, ignoring him. But Pax leaned close to Chloe's ear, "Are you hungry? I've got something good. Wanna try it?"
Chloe turned to look at Pax, curiosity sparking in her eyes. But Pax grabbed Chloe's hand, "Come with me."
Chloe was taken aback for a moment, then shook off Pax's hand, "Pax, show some respect."
Pax just laughed, "I can't help it. I like you." His tone was playful and teasing.
Chloe sighed, but still followed her. This whole scene was caught by Connor, his gaze dark and intense.
Meanwhile, Pax led Chloe to the center of the campsite. A campfire was still burning, but now there was a grill over the fire. And on the grill... was a large snake being roasted.
Pax said, "I thought the production team wouldn't provide breakfast, so I prepared early this morning."
Chloe looked at Pax, a bit shocked, "You roasted this snake?"
"Yeah, didn't you ask me to deal with it yesterday?" Pax sounded a bit hurt, "It took me two hours to get it ready."
Chloe watched Pax with a bit of admiration, "Pax, I meant for you to just throw it into the forest, not to skin and debone it, and then put it on a grill."
Pax paused, "I thought that's what you meant."

Chloe sat down, "Well, since it's already roasted, let's have it for breakfast. Go get the leftover seasonings from yesterday. Sprinkling some wild chives on top should make it taste even better."
In the live stream, comments were flying:
[LOL, girl, that's a snake! This setup looks like we're grilling fish.]
[Chloe's laid-back attitude is truly unmatched.]
[But seriously, how did a snake show up last night? What did we miss?]
[Pax killing the snake, I can't even imagine the scene.]
Meanwhile, Pax had already brought over the seasonings. Last night, Connor prepared a unique blend of herbs, wild chives, and coconut oil. Brushed onto the snake meat, it smelled amazing.
It was quickly ready to eat. Chloe tore off a piece and started eating with Pax. Kalilah, drawn by the smell, came over. She was so hungry she felt dizzy. The unusual fragrance fed her to see Pax and Chloe eating
what
grilled meat. She didn't melled
kind of meat it was, but
irresistible.
Kalilah was too hungry to think. Afraid of Chloe, she played the pity card with Pax, "Pax, I didn't have dinner last night. I'm starving. Can I have a bit?"
Pax was generous, immediately
giving her the largest piece. Kalilah, starving, devoured it eagerly. After eating most of it, she finally asked, "Ms. Pax, what kind of meat is this? It's surprisingly delicious."
Pax slowly replied, "Snake meat, the King Cobra from your tent yesterday!"
