Chapter 965 Last Chance
Susanne’s intention was simple. She wanted to give both Arielle and Wendy the same chance.
It was the perfect opportunity for her to test if Wendy was an honest person or a cunning one.
For her, a person’s heart was more important than one’s capabilities and background.
She would never want a daughter-in-law who was mean and wicked.
Without a doubt, this would be the final chance Susanne gave for Wendy.
Yet, the next moment, Wendy shook her head firmly. “She uses the most ordinary ingredients, yet she sells at fifty per portion. It was the most average ravioli I’ve ever eaten. I think it is slightly overpriced.”
Susanne’s smile disappeared as she asked composedly, “Then, what are the restaurants that you have been to for ravioli?”
Wendy did not know why Susanne asked such a question. She replied after thinking for a while, “In Jadeborough, I’ve tried the ones in Jadeborough Hotel. It’s also average, but it’s much better than Arielle’s ravioli.”
Upon hearing that, Susanne let out a long sigh.
It turned out Wendy failed to pass her test after all.
She had tried the ravioli in Jadeborough Hotel before, and it was not comparable at all with Arielle’s ravioli. Evidently, what Wendy said was a pure lie.
Susanne did not know if she should be disappointed or relieved.
They are indeed mother and daughter. Wendy is just like Cecilia. How could I be so blind and think Wendy is a good choice?
“I see.” Susanne nodded and faked a smile. “If it’s that bad, I won’t go and buy it then.”
Wendy heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that, but still, she felt rather uneasy.
It was a strange feeling, but she could not ignore it.
Around half an hour later, the flea market finally ended. The teachers started going around the field and instructed everyone to start demolishing their stalls.
In this half an hour, Wendy did not sell a single box of cookies. It was probably because someone posted that the stall belonged to Wendy, the nutcase. That someone even attached Wendy’s photo in the post.
Even though many students in the school heard about Wendy, they did not know what she looked like. Since Wendy’s photo was exposed, no one would go to visit her stall surely.
With that, Wendy’s sales revenue was only eight hundred. There was no way she could get a prize.
However, Wendy was no longer interested in the prize.
When Susanne was ordering her bodyguard to reserve a restaurant nearby, Wendy whispered to Cecilia. “Mom, I feel that something’s not right.”
“Something’s not right? What is it?” Cecilia could not wrap her head around it.
“It’s Mrs. Nightshire. I feel that she is more distanced than ever. And when I said Arielle’s ravioli tasted bad, I could sense that she was laughing at me.”
“How could that be? Even if you’re not her best choice for daughter-in-law, it wouldn’t be Arielle, that bast*rd. The Southalls are done for, and she is the daughter of the late Maureen with another man. Do you think Susanne will let someone like her marry into her family?”
“No, but…”
“All right. Stop overthinking. Let’s wait and see Arielle being embarrassed in public when she fails to answer the exam tonight!”
Wendy nodded upon hearing that. Maybe I’m being too sensitive.
Meanwhile, Arielle finished counting her revenue, five thousand six hundred in total.
Everyone on the spot was startled when she handed that money to the student council.
