Chapter 217 Witness

"You..." Brittany stamped her foot in frustration, feeling as though she had once again beenoutplayed by the country boy. She was fed up with always being on the losing end. Tonight, she wasdetermined to win. To double her victory.

Not wanting to waste any more time bantering with Daniel, knowing she couldn't outsmart him,Brittany directly issued her challenge. "If you're a man, make good on our bet now!"

"Okay!" Daniel agreed without hesitation and then offered a pointed reminder, "Just a friendlywarning: you've already eaten so much lobster, if you tuck into five plates of scrambled eggs, yourbelly's going to swell up like you're pregnant. Don't blame me!"

"You think I'm a goldfish? Don't worry, even if your scrambled eggs taste amazing, I’ll only eat acouple of bites at most, definitely not five whole plates. So just get ready to lose. And let me remindyou, once you do, you’ll have to agree to any condition I put forward with no ifs, ands, or buts!"

"Don’t worry, if you somehow manage to scarf down five plates and I lose, I'll agree to any conditionyou propose, no backing out!"

"What are you planning to ask for?"

"I’m not telling you!"

"You…” Brittany fumed, stomping her foot again.

"Hmph!" She huffed dismissively and said, "It doesn't matter because you're the one who's going tolose. So, whatever you demand, I can agree to. Whoever backs out is a little dog!"

"Fine! Amelia can be the witness. If anyone backs out, they’re the little dog!"

"Alright! I'll be a witness to your bet!" Amelia readily agreed.

Daniel disappeared into the kitchen and mere five minutes later, he returned with a large plate ofscrambled eggs, using a total of ten eggs - five times the regular portion since one standard servingused only two eggs.

He placed the plate on the table, and the tantalizing aroma immediately wafted through the air.Amelia couldn’t resist and scooped up a little to taste.

Instantly, she was astonished. "This is so delicious! No, this is the best scrambled eggs I've everhad!"

"Tsk!" Brittany rolled her eyes in disdain. "It's just scrambled eggs. No matter how tasty, you'reexaggerating."

With that, she picked up a fork, planning to symbolically taste the egg before unleashing a torrent ofmockery upon Daniel. Brittany impaled a small piece with her fork but instead of putting it in hermouth, she decided to make fun of Daniel first.

"This scrambled egg looks as unappetizing as crap, but that makes sense. Being from thecountryside, you probably crawled out from a pile of cow dung, so of course, your cooking wouldtaste as bad as it looks."

Amelia, who had just brought over two more plates, heard Brittany's commentary. Somewhatannoyed, she retorted, "What did you say? That Daniel's eggs are as unpalatable as crap? Goahead, try it. I bet after you taste it, you'll instantly fall in love with crap's flavor, maybe you'll evenfight to eat it!"

"I would never do that!" Brittany declared, placing the small piece of egg into her mouth.

Before she even began to chew, the egg’s unique flavor assaulted her taste buds. In that moment,Brittany realized she had forgotten all the snide remarks she had prepared to throw at Daniel.
