A Stay-at-home Dad’s Restaurant In An Alternate World (WN)-Chapter 2467: I’m Not Free. Sorry

Chapter 2467: I’m Not Free. Sorry

Angelina was innocent and pretty, young and energetic. Moreover, she cooked very well. She was, without any doubts, the goddess of the culinary world.

However, Mag still preferred the likes of Nancy and Akali.

!!

Can one survive with pretty looks?

One could survive with a rich lady.

Mag couldn’t give every little sister a warm home, so keeping a distance from them was his last consideration for them.

“I’m not free. Sorry.” Mag gave Akali a cold reply.

He was sure that the McCarthy Family would conduct an onboarding review on him. If they found out that he had something going on with Akali, he would most probably get rejected.

After all, the Dixon Family and the McCarthy Family had never gotten along and the Dixon Family had suffered greatly due to the Horace incident.

Mag was equally wary about Akali. Even though she behaved like a crazy married fangirl, that didn’t mean she was a brainless woman.

On the contrary, she was the smartest person among the Underground City’s plutocrats’ younger generations.

Otherwise, how could she have owned Tucker City’s landmark building-The Twin Towers.

Then, he gave Nancy a succinct reply, “Sure.”

Having a certain level of aloofness was the secret to keeping a woman interested and curious in you, and eventually bankrupt her, this wasn’t just a joke.

A high-born lady like Nancy, who had been treasured since she was young, had many bootlickers around her.

At a time like this, a faint aloofness was far more attractive to her.

After all, he was that one and only… chef.

Mag and Xi walked out of the studio and he asked with a chuckle, “How was my performance?”

“Astonishing,” Xi said honestly.

She looked at Mag with a judging gaze. She still couldn’t understand how Mag could adapt so well when this was the first time he had taken part in a variety show. It was even his first interaction with the Underground World. He even stirred up the Underground City’s Internet world all by himself.

“How’s the process of Horace’s incident?” Mag asked telepathically.

“You know. Such matters usually don’t progress too fast.”

Mag nodded thoughtfully. Even though Horace’s incident had created a hurricane on the Internet, the result would be decided by all the parties playing the game. It would have nothing to do with justice.

“Nancy is asking me out for tea. I intend to go out for a while,” Mag said.

“Are you going to kill Fergus?” Xi’s footsteps faltered.

“I have no intention to challenge your Underground City’s Extraordinaires yet.” Mag shook his head calmly. “I just want to go out for a walk and buy some local goodies for my wife and daughters.”

Xi caught up with Mag and said in a grave voice, “I need to remind you again. According to our agreement, you cannot bring anything from Underground City back to the Norland Continent.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t carry your robots back. I just want to bring some beautiful handicrafts back to them.” Mag consoled Xi.

“How dare he reject me again!”

Akali, who was slumping on the sofa, saw Mag’s succinct reply and got angry.

In Underground City, no man had rejected her repeatedly like him. Furthermore, he didn’t even bother to give her a reason.

“Miss, the Explosive White Water Beef Balls you asked for.”

The secretary rushed in with an insulated box excitedly.

“Let me try them before I decide if I should forgive him.” Akali sat up.

The secretary opened the insulated box and the heat gushed out together with the rich beef aroma.

Even though she was lying on the sofa and snacking as she watched the show, Akali couldn’t help gulping when she smelled the aroma.

There were five round and cute beef balls in the crystal bowl.

Akali used a spoon to scoop up a beef ball. She blew at it gently before popping it into her mouth and biting it.

Howl-

Akali couldn’t help but open her mouth after she was scalded by the hot soup. The soup that squirted out splashed over the secretary’s face.

The secretary took two steps back and almost sat on the floor.

Akali was dumbfounded too. Fortunately, she was at home. If this happened outside, she would be utterly embarrassed.

Then, a sweet taste blossomed on the tip of her tongue. The taste buds that were shocked by the hot soup, were suddenly consoled gently.

The fresh prawns with the slightly gooey meat jelly soup, brought the extreme umami from the sea. Along with the beef’s rich aroma, it made her lost within it immediately.

She seemed to be swimming in the blue sea for one moment and then running on the grassland the next. It was so carefree.

After the soup, it was the bouncy beef ball. The beautiful texture after she bit down, made it hard for her to imagine that this was the beef that was beaten tens of thousands of times. And, the beef’s rich aroma instantly blossomed in her mouth.

She had never eaten such a strange food before!

It caught her unawares and yet made her lost within it.

The secretary wiped away the soup on her face and said to Akali with a panicked expression, “Miss, I’ll take it away right now.”

Her heart almost shattered. Who could have imagined that the Explosive White Water Beef Balls that had won over all the judges, actually made Miss vomit. She was going to die today.

“Who wants you to take them away?” Akali glared at the secretary and picked up another beef ball with her spoon again. “You go and change first. Come back to clear up after I am done.”

“A-alright.” The secretary left with a dazed expression. It seemed like… Miss quite liked it?

She ate the beef balls one by one. The more she ate it, the more she enjoyed it. After swallowing the last beef ball, Akali picked up the crystal bowl and finished the soup before she licked her lips with satisfaction and smiled.

With the utmost humility, this helping of Explosive White Water Beef Balls had far exceeded her expectations. No wonder Nancy treated him specially.

She didn’t get to taste the charcoal-grilled mutton ribs yesterday, but today’s beef balls really let her get a feel of Hades’ potential.

This outstanding man was handsome, righteous and a great cook. If Nancy got him into her harem, she would never get to eat the dishes he cooked ever again.

“No way! That is definitely not going to happen! Such an outstanding man should be firmly in my grasp!”

Akali clenched her teeth with an exceptionally convicted expression.

“Submit Hades’ information and get them to complete the background check as soon as possible. After tomorrow’s competition is over, I’m bringing him back to the manor.”

In the office, Nancy ordered the secretary next to her.

“Alright.” The secretary nodded and quickly left the office.

“Charcoal-grilled mutton ribs, Explosive White Water Beef Balls. I want to see what other surprises you can bring me,” Nancy mumbled to herself with a smile.

Hades’ performance today made her increasingly sure that she wanted him to enter the McCarthy Manor.

However, a big family had many rules and the checks done on the chefs were particularly stringent. Even if she vouched for him, he still had to pass her family’s checks.
