"Renee, you're back?"
Chelsea Raines's face lit up.
Renee Jennings gave a faint smile and sat back down in her seat.
"It looks like everyone's had their fill," the tour guide said. "Were you all satisfied with tonight's dinner?"
"Not satisfied!" Jared Woods shouted. "There weren't enough of the delicious noodles! Nowhere near enough!" To distinguish between the noodles made by Naomi Kenway and Renee Jennings, he had added his own descriptor.
The tour guide laughed. "It seems Naomi Kenway's noodles are very popular!"
"Now for our next activity. Come on, kids, get a little red flower from me, and then give it to the person whom you think is the 'Master Chef'!"
The young guests took the flowers from the tour guide. With an unspoken understanding, all the children except for Nathan Lynch started walking toward Naomi Kenway.
"Jared Woods!"
Chelsea Raines called out to him, her tone sharp and demanding.
