So she's happy because she learned a new recipe?

The food in front of me looks extravagant.

The chicken breasts were coated in pecan breading

The chicken breasts were coated in pecan breading. And a rich bourbon sauce was poured over them.

I gracefully sliced a part with my utensils then placed it into my mouth.

Unlike most chicken, it's not very dry. In fact it is very juicy and flavourful. The skin was scrumptious and quite crunchy.

The most important part of the food being the sauce. It gave a very distinct flavour. It was a little sweet but the sweetness was mellowed by the bourbon, mustard and soy sauce mixture combined with worcestershire sauce.

All in all, a pleasant meal. Would rate 4.5/5 stars.

I stopped spacing out for a moment thinking that I was Gordon Ramsay or a very experienced gourmet.

I got a little carried away there.

Most people just enjoy food. And here I am making reviews like I'm in a TV show or something.

It made me laugh a little.

"(Nickname)." My mother called. Snapping me out of my thoughts.

What is it?

If you want to know whether your cooking is good. Yes it is.

"Yeah it tastes good." I complimented my mom who appreciated what I said.

"Oh thank you.. but I have something to ask you." My mom was smiling just for a moment before turning her face into a serious one.

"I saw you come out of an expensive luxury sports car just now.. was the driver your boyfriend?" My mother asked.

She made me almost spit out what's in my mouth.

*Cough* *cough*

I grabbed a glass of water and gulped it down.

My father remained silent but I could see my father staring at me, eager for an answer.

There's no point in lying.

"Yes." I directly told them.

My parent's eyes widened in surprise.

"You're dating a rich man?" My father asked me.

"Not really.." I felt embarrassed being pressed by my parents on who my boyfriend is.

"You should invite him over to dinner sometime!" My mother openly suggested.

"We would like to meet him." My father stated with a demanding tone.

There's no harm in introducing Ashton to my parents.

But then I remembered what Ashton told me.

If I found out about his family's secret, will they also kill my parents too?
