With such a dutiful son-in-law, Juliana Lancaster couldn’t express her displeasure even if she wanted to.

Knowing Evander Lancaster had brought a lot of ingredients, she loudly reminded him as he headed to the kitchen, "Don’t make too much, it’ll be wasteful if we can’t finish it."

"Auntie, just wait and see," Evander Lancaster agreed good-naturedly.

Watching her daughter and Evander Lancaster busying themselves on the balcony, Juliana Lancaster couldn’t help but sigh. Such a good kid, how did he end up in that kind of family?

If only he were from an ordinary family, handsome, treats her daughter well, and is filial to her...

Juliana Lancaster shook her head and sighed again. People are usually happy when their daughter dates a wealthy boyfriend, but she feels regret about it.

On the balcony, the two were busy. Evander Lancaster had brought a variety of ingredients: lobster, salmon, Kobe beef... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Sophia Hamilton took out each ingredient, and Evander Lancaster skillfully prepared them. The hands that held a scalpel were just as adept holding a kitchen knife; each slice of salmon was almost identical in thickness. Especially when cutting the beef, he placed a hand on top while the knife moved smoothly and steadily across, slicing the beef evenly into three parts.

"Are you making steak?"

Sophia Hamilton stood by watching, holding up a slice of steak with two fingers, observing the evenly distributed fat in the meat, "Kobe beef? It’s super expensive, right?" she’d heard a pound cost thousands.

"It’s alright." Evander Lancaster said with a smile, then took the beef from her fingers and placed it onto a plate.

Sophia Hamilton picked up a chopstick and toyed with the large lobster in the bowl, "Evander Lancaster, is it true that you wealthy people live this extravagantly every day?"

"You silly girl, I have the ability for this." Evander Lancaster raised a hand to ruffle her hair, as Sophia Hamilton continued to play with the lobster and sighed, "I wish you were just an ordinary person."

Evander Lancaster turned his eyes to her with a smile but said nothing, continuing to prepare the other ingredients.

An hour later, Evander Lancaster brought the final seafood soup to the dining table, looking at the dishes that the mother and daughter hadn’t finished, along with the newly cooked ones, he smiled and said, "Exactly ten dishes, perfectly complete."

He also sat down at the table, "Let’s dig in."

Juliana Lancaster looked at the steak on her plate, puzzled, "Is it... cooked?"

"Mom, steak is best at medium-rare, try it and see,"

Sophia Hamilton had already started eating unreservedly, slicing the steak and putting it into her mouth, chewing and marveling, "Hmm, it’s just different, the texture and taste are leagues better than anything from the market."

Evander Lancaster looked over as he continued to cut his steak, "If you like it, I’ll make it for you every day."

"Hmm, occasionally is fine, too expensive." Sophia Hamilton said, shaking her head as she took more steak into her mouth.

"What’s the difference? Even if it’s imported, it’s still beef, right?" Juliana Lancaster carefully examined a piece of steak with her fork, talking to herself while doing so.

Sophia Hamilton found it amusing, "Mom, the last time, Evander bought this type of beef, which is suited for steak, and you ended up stewing it with potatoes."

"Really?"

Juliana Lancaster looked around again at the steak, "I said so! That’s why he only bought a tiny bit."

Sophia Hamilton...

She wanted to tell her mother that the "tiny bit" cost thousands, but beside her, Evander Lancaster seemed to know what she was thinking. He put down his knife and fork, picked up the chopsticks, and placed a slice of salmon dipped in sauce onto her plate, "Try this,"

Sophia Hamilton picked it up with a fork and sent it to her mouth, "It’s certainly delicious, so expensive,"
