Chapter 98

"Ugh, delicious! ...I can actually bite into the bread. The bacon... the cheese... Ah, it's so delicious!!"

In the end, the person who ranked highest as someone they wanted to feed was Chef Rick. Rina immediately bit into the bread that he had baked.

Why was Chef Rick number one? I guess, if you’re going to feed a colleague, you might as well feed Rick... That’s probably the reasoning.

"Bacon... oh, so good!! The bread is so soft and delicious."

The runner-up was Deputy Chef Matheus. The reason is probably the same as for Rick. Some people who thought Matheus was better than Rick voted for him. He looks very pleased with himself.

"Whyyyyy!! Why didn’t everyone vote for meeeee!!"

Anna cried out, looking at everyone. If she were a child, she would have thrown a tantrum and flopped onto the ground, thrashing about. Everyone just looked at her blankly.

"Of course, Rock voted for me, right!?"

She asked a nearby colleague with the force of a punch. I’d like to ask why it’s “of course.”

"...No, he didn’t."

At that point, it would have been better to lie and say he did. After all, only a few people know who voted for whom.

"Whyyyyy!! I want to eat it so muchttt!!"

Anna stomped her feet on the ground and threw a tantrum. There was actually someone who really stomped their feet.

But, "such" and "that" and "Anna" don’t matter. Because everyone feels the same way as Anna; they’re just not throwing a tantrum.

"Ri-naaa!! Make something for meee!!"

Since everyone was ignoring her, she decided to ask Rina directly. Good or bad, she probably got to eat the cheese omelet because of that. She’s really enjoying the taste...

*Smack!!*

"Owyyyy!!"

"No way! You’re so noisy!"

Rina gave Anna, who was throwing a tantrum, a good whack on the head. Even though Prince Egidius, the youngest, could eat, the younger guards were enduring, so Anna was being too selfish.

"Butttt..."

Even with tears in her eyes, she was still grumbling.

"Break time is over, right? Come on, back to work!!"

She clapped her hands loudly in front of Anna’s face, trying to get her to calm down.

"Rina, you baka!!"

As she left, Anna pouted and reluctantly went back to work with her colleagues.

"...Really"

Rina sighed. She couldn’t understand why Anna could be so noisy and act on her desires.

But at the same time, she understood. So this is what it’s like when a child throws a tantrum in a supermarket...

From now on, she’ll call noisy children in supermarkets "Anna." If she ever gets back to a supermarket, that is.

"......"

Just as Rina was about to return to her seat after the noise had died down, her eyes caught something in a corner.

It was Chef Rick, who had been smiling happily while eating just a moment ago, now looking pale and desolate. What happened to him?

Glancing at his side, Rina saw that his wife, Lady Rana, was happily munching on a bacon and cheese bread.

...Rana...

Did you take Rick’s bread!!

Seeing the power dynamics in the couple, Rina felt a sense of helplessness.

"...I see, a husband... or a boyfriend, if you have one..."

Rina heard Monica’s ominous whisper near her ear.

"......"

Rina was chilled to the bone by Monica’s look.

This woman... she’s planning to get a boyfriend just to take their food.

She’s a terrifying woman...

Buddha, have mercy on Monica’s future husband...

Rina was chanting a prayer in her heart.
