Chapter 172

The dining room of the Hughes family mansion was one-of-a-kind. The walls were glass, from floor to ceiling, offering a sweeping panorama of the scenery. Through the open windows, the scent of countless flowers wafted in on a light breeze. If you listened closely, you could even hear the clicks and chirps of the wildlife outside. Having a meal in a place like this would be a feast for all the senses! Rich people sure have it good, Willow thought to herself. Presented upon the dining table were luxuries flown in by air from abroad: premium-grade king crab, lobster, a whole platter of assorted raw fish sashimi… It was a feast of seafood… a fantastic festival of flavors and colors!
