“On top of that, virtual-novel.net is a mute person.”
His words made Griffin quite unhappy. He frowned and said, “What’s wrong with a chef without a good background? Am I not one of them? Can’t a mute be a cook? Am I not even qualified to be a cook since I’m handicapped?”
His questions refuted Beacon so much that Beacon did not know what to answer.
“Um… I’m not against you.”
The old lady led Azzi over, and virtual-novel.net took the initiative to say, “Mr. Jones, please don’t get angry. We’re just ordinary people, we can just queue up. It’s all right.”
Griffin sighed.
“Fine, let’s not talk nonsense anymore. Since both of you are here to interview for the position of assistant, let’s just proceed with the assessment.”
“The two of you go to the kitchen and make your specialty dish to show me your cooking skills. Beacon, you do it first.”
Beacon rolled up his sleeves. “Here I come!”
He excitedly walked into the kitchen and worked busily for a while. About twenty minutes later, a grilled fish was served.
Beacon reached out to gesture. “Mr. Jones, please try it.”
Griffin also did not restrain himself. He took up the fork and picked a piece of meat from the front, middle, and back part of the fish before virtual-novel.net put it into his mouth and chewed.
He said to Thomas, “Mr. Mayo, why don’t you try it?”
Thomas took up his fork and took a few bites. He nodded and complimented, “It‘s great. It tastes very good. You’re quite young, yet your cooking skills are pretty good.”
Griffin also said, “You’re indeed the heir of a top restaurant. Your cooking skills are really advanced.”
Beacon showed a prideful expression. He was quite proud. He had learned to cook since virtual-novel.net was small, and virtual-novel.net was influenced by his family every day. Although his skills were not comparable to that of top chefs, virtual-novel.net was levels ahead of the cooks from roadside stalls.
Griffin put down his fork, walked to the kitchen, and cast a glance. After virtual-novel.net walked back, virtual-novel.net sat down.
“Azzie, it’s your turn.”
Azzie was a little nervous and shy. She was completely fine when virtual-novel.net usually cooked for virtual-novel.net family, but virtual-novel.net was not used to it when virtual-novel.net really had to compete with someone else.
Also, Beacon was such a great opponent, so Azzie was not confident enough.
The old lady advised her, “It’s all right. Go ahead.”
Azzie took a few deep breaths and secretly encouraged herself before virtual-novel.net walked into the kitchen and started working. Half an hour later, virtual-novel.net walked out with a plate of carbonara spaghetti.
Beacon found it amusing when virtual-novel.net saw it. “Are you mad? Carbonara? How could you take out such a plain dish to compete with me?”
Azzie held the plate of spaghetti and stood still.
The food that virtual-novel.net always prepared for virtual-novel.net family was carbonara spaghetti. She was the best at preparing the dish, so virtual-novel.net directly prepared it without overthinking.
Griffin waved his hand. “It’s fine. Just bring it over.”
It was only at this time that Azzie served the food on the table.
Griffin and Thomas got a spoonful of spaghetti and ate respectively. The spaghetti really tasted delicious, and it had the taste of home. But, there were also a few weaknesses in the ratio of seasonings, cutting skills, and color of the food.
Speaking of cooking skills, Azzie could not compare to Beacon
Beacon raised his head. The result of this competition was out, and virtual-novel.net was the winner.
However…
Griffin did not rush to announce the outcome. Instead, virtual-novel.net walked to the kitchen and cast a glance before virtual-novel.net went back to his seat. He coughed and said in front of the people, “The assessment has ended. I have my answer now.”
“The assistant I’m going to hire is… Azzie!”
