"We are having a huge dinner celebration at the main house at 8 pm. Please come." Ella Augustin smiled at the crowd and invited everyone.
Before anyone could reply anything, Hazel hurriedly turned towards her mother and stared at her in shock. "Mother, why are you inviting everyone to an unofficial clan elders meeting?"
"Shush, Hazel. Who said it's a clan meeting?" Ella awkwardly chuckled and reprimanded the young girl.
"Please don't mind her. Ha Ha. This is a celebration dinner."
"Thanks, mother. Will we be there." Luther amusedly smiled and nodded.
Standing next to him, Su Lin who was still continuing to nibble on the fruit in her hand also nodded cheerfully.
She looked hilarious with fruit juices trickling out of the corner of her lips.
"How disrespectful?! Why are you stuffing yourself full, when mother literally just invited you for a dinner?"
"Hmph! This is not your average dinner. There will be a lot of divine elixirs and very nutritious meat. You better stop eating the random berry in your hand." Hazel glared at Su Lin.
How could the wife slave tolerate such an obvious insult thrown at his wife?!
Luther immediately hugged Su Lin and gently kissed her on her forehead. " She is my cute glutton. Don't bad mouth her." He seriously said.
"What the…?" Hazel opened and closed her mouth without any words coming out.
"Shush, Hazel." Ella frowned. She was quite used to her daughter's special temperament and sighed.
But Su Lin unexpectedly did not look offended. Instead, she had a bright beaming smile on her full lips.
"My dear sister-in-law, that's how you should address me!" She chuckled.
"Fat chance!" Hazel angrily scoffed.
She had no issues ignoring her mother's direct orders in front of these random strangers.
She only cared for her brother and the rest might as well disappear!
"How about I give you a bite of this fruit?"
"If it's some random berry like you mentioned, I will leave the island immediately."
Hazel's face instantly brightened up. "Ok. Give me that." She stepped forward to grab the damned fruit from the strange woman's hand.
"Hai. Hai. Wait a minute." Su Lin stepped behind Luther and chuckled.
"What if it is not a random berry? What if it is the most nutritious food you have ever consumed?" The mischievous woman smirked.
"Would you then give me a hug every time we meet and address me as 'my dear Sis Lin'?"
"Huh?" Hazel was dumbfounded. The nerve of this woman!
Ella sighed. Why is this daughter of hers always so high and mighty?
Did she really have to pull these people into a quarrel on the very day they stepped inside their clan?
She decided to intervene before things got too out of control. But… alas… it was already too late!
"Fine. I accept the terms." Hazel haughtily scoffed. She was so sure that this would be the last time she had to lay her eyes on this eyesore of a woman!
Her divine angelic brother on the arms of a pleb like her? That was akin to throwing holy water on garden weed!
"He He. Here you go. Bite into it, my dear." Su Lin tossed a fruit towards Hazel.
The girl's brown hair fluttered in the wind as she slightly leaned forward and caught the fruit.
"You throw like a toddler. Hmph."
Hazel annoyedly muttered and bit into the fruit, as if it was just a mere formality before throwing the damned woman off of the island.
"Hazel, stop this immediately. Is this how you treat your guests? When did I teach you such bad manners?" Ella rubbed her temples and tried to reason with the unruly brat.
She could clearly picture the tantrum that her youngest daughter was about to throw.
But to her surprise, there was no response.
The young girl who took a big bite, full of anger and gusto, was suddenly standing still like a statue.
Juices started trickling down the corners of her mouth as well, but she couldn't care less.
She hurriedly took another bite out of the purple fruit.
And to Ella's shock, the pampered princess complex girl then wiped the juices from the corner of her mouth and licked it!!!
That too in front of everyone!!!
Ella, almost couldn't believe her eyes.
She curiously looked at her daughter, who now handed the remainder of the fruit over to her with a flabbergasted face.
"Child, I am fine. I will eat later at dinner."
Ella smiled and awkwardly refused her daughter's gesture, slightly ashamed to share the half-eaten fruit. She was the clan leader after all.
But Hazel's stunned expression still did not change. She simply shoved the remaining piece of fruit into her mother's mouth unceremoniously.
"Hazel!!" Ella stuttered and sighed, and helplessly tasted the thing.
I need to discipline this daughter of mine! Ella was genuinely angry.
However, 2 seconds later...
Both mother and daughter had the same flabbergasted expression on their faces.
"This… This… How?" Ella stammered.
She looked at her son, her eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.
This was a true genius! Her son was a genius!!
He had barely stepped into the island for half a day and already he produced something exceptional and mind-breaking!!
Looking at his mother's face, Luther could vaguely guess what she had assumed and helplessly smiled.
"Brother, why are you letting her eat so many of these??"
"Do you have any idea how valuable these are?"
"Brother, you need to think about our whole clan, our family! You cannot simply be wasting everything on this woman!" Hazel angrily burst out.
She just couldn't comprehend how wasteful this brother of hers had been! Such a precious treasure!
She could already feel her cultivation base rotating and improving.
And this stupid useless woman had eaten about a ten of these right in front of them, not even offering one.
Each damned fruit was an invaluable priceless elixir. It would probably sell for a billion or trillion each.
No, in fact, no one would even sell these!
JUST WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING HERE??? Hazel was going livid with anger.
