This was the first time Aurora had ever truly cooked a full meal, and it was more exhausting than an entire afternoon of boxing practice. From the moment she started chopping vegetables and prepping ingredients, every nerve in her body was tense. By the time the meal was done, she was dead tired.
Yvonne Vaughn sat down and ladled a bowl of seafood and matsutake mushroom soup for both Damien Valerius and Aurora. "Damien, hurry and try some. Aurora made this soup with her own two hands."
Damien took the soup bowl. After a single sip, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on his face. "Not bad."
Receiving his approval, Aurora felt a thrill of delight. She had already tasted the soup while it was simmering to check the seasoning, but drinking it now, she was still impressed by how delicious it was.
'Maybe it tastes this good just because I'm the one who made it.'
Setting down her soup bowl, Aurora looked at Yvonne curiously. "Mrs. Vaughn, aren't you having any?"
