Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 1734

Chapter 1734: Taste test

[MAMA]

"Auntie, we told you it’s alright and you don’t have to bother..." Nina trailed off as she was forcibly seated in the corner table chair by Allison.

Allison had her hands on Nina’s shoulders, chuckling. Jessa, on the other hand, was already serving sample dishes for Nina to taste.

"Stop complaining, Nina," Allison said. "You know your auntie. She said she’d prepare some dishes for your wedding, and we both know she won’t change her mind."

"That’s right," Jessa rolled her eyes, placing the last plate on the table. She rested her hands on her hips, giving Nina a slightly intimidating look. "Nina, how could I let you get married without serving a dish from one of the best chefs in Anteca? Don’t you want to brag to people?"

Nina pressed her lips into a thin line and let out a shallow chuckle. "Auntie, I don’t think I have anyone to brag to about this wedding... and I don’t want to tire you out on my special day."

"Don’t worry about that." Jessa waved her off. "I’m a woman who can do ten things at once and not break a sweat."

Allison chuckled. "Just don’t think of anything else and try these out, alright? Your aunt’s been working on these recipes since the family meeting."

"The family meeting gone wrong," Jessa corrected, pushing one of the dishes closer to Nina. "Now go. Tell me what you think."

"Okay..." Nina pursed her lips, eyes scanning the food in front of her. She swallowed hard—it all looked so good.

They were already pleasing to the eye, and she was sure they’d taste heavenly.

Picking up a small fork, she examined the first dish. Then she carefully gathered a small bite.

Allison and Jessa watched with expectant eyes, almost holding their breath as Nina began chewing.

When Nina looked up at them, she blinked. "Auntie... Penny will be livid if she hears we’re doing this without her. It’s really good."

"Heh," Jessa smirked smugly, crossing her arms under her chest. "Of course it’s good. I made it—haha!"

Allison chuckled at Jessa’s pride, fully aware of how long she’d been staying up working on the recipes. Well, Allison had stayed up even longer since she had to accompany her and been her guinea pig.

"Let’s just not tell Penny about this," Allison whispered. "Otherwise, she’ll be nagging all of us."

"Well, that piglet should start thinking about a proper wedding soon. And that corpse husband of hers should also start doing what Finn is doing." Jessa clicked her tongue. "This is a punishment for her—for getting married without telling anyone, then putting off the wedding until now."

"She’s not even mentioning it, like they have no plans at all!" she added, clearly frustrated.

Allison chuckled weakly. "Jessi, Penny and Zoren are still busy with their careers—and also, please stop calling Zoren that. It’s not nice."

"This is why that piglet does whatever she wants," Jessa barked. "You keep spoiling her."
