Chapter 1559

Camille was very allergic to peanuts. If she was even near them, her entire body would start to itch and red rashes would appear after a while, let alone if she consumed them. Her allergic reaction would be quite severe.

She had seen a lot of doctors, but they said it was because of Camille’s special physique.

As long as Camille drank this bowl of soup with peanuts in it, Madeline would surely be finished.

Everyone knew that she was the one solely responsible for the food tonight.

Madeline could not escape the blame if something happened to Camille.

The more Ada thought about it, the happier she was. The smile at the corner of her mouth started overflowing uncontrollably.

When Camille was about to drink the soup, she suddenly put down the spoon.

“Did you make this soup too?” Camille asked Madeline suddenly as if she did not believe her.

Madeline nodded. “Yeah, I made it. Is there something wrong?”

Camille curled the corners of her lips. “There’s nothing wrong with it, and it smells pretty good. Your cooking skills are indeed pretty decent. I’ll taste this now. If it’s good, you’ll have passed the second stage.”

“…”

Madeline finally understood. Her cooking so many dishes tonight turned out to be a test.

She was curious about what kind of family this was. They had to go through so many trials to select a daughter-in-law, just like in ancient times.

First was the appearance.

Next was cooking.

Madeline did not dare to think about what would happen next.

At this moment, Ada, who was harboring sinister thoughts, was secretly thrilled. ‘Hmph, you’re thinking of letting her pass the test? You might even have the thought of killing her after you drink this bowl of soup!’

“This chicken soup smells so good. What did you put into the soup?” Carter asked casually.

Madeline did not care much at first. However, since Carter and his mother had been saying that it smelled good, Madeline sniffed it lightly.

After sniffing it, Madeline could not help but frown.

It smelled pretty special.

Madeline raised her eyes sharply and caught a glimpse of Ada’s evil smile. Then, she quickly looked at Camille who was holding a spoon, about to taste the soup.

“Don’t drink it!”

Madeline hurriedly pointed out.

Camille stopped the movement of putting the spoon into her mouth. Everyone stopped as well and looked at Madeline who had stopped them in confusion.

Ada and Ada’s mother were also stunned, but at the same time, they felt even more dissatisfied.

“Are you telling me not to drink it?” Camille looked confusedly at Madeline who was looking grave at this moment.

Madeline nodded. “Don’t drink it.”

“What do you mean?” Camille was dissatisfied. “Did you taste it yourself and it didn’t taste good, so you want to forfeit because you’re worried that I won’t pass you?”

“The soup tastes very good. I don’t think Eveline needs to forfeit,” Carter explained for Madeline unhurriedly, but he was also curious about Madeline’s behavior.

“Carty is right. The soup tastes really good. My mother and I have tasted it.” Ada jumped to agree and was deliberately raising Madeline’s skills. “Aunty Cammy, I think Miss Montgomery is just joking with you. Drink the soup while it’s hot. It tastes really good. Aunty Cammy, you should try it!”

“That’s right, drink it while it’s hot, Camille. Hurry up and try the soup your daughter-in-law made.”

Ada’s mother also hurriedly urged.
