Chapter 867 Upon hearing this statement, Mia's appetite immediately waned, prompting her to set down her cutlery. | She peered at the dish before her and questioned, "Are you certain that this chef worked for the esteemed Barrett family in Bern City, and that this dish was Mr. Barrett's favorite?" Wasn't that too much of a coincidence? Mia couldn't believe the serendipity of encountering a chef who had worked at Timothy's household just as they casually went out for a meal.

"This information is straight from the chef's mouth. Rumor has it that the

CEO of the esteemed Barrett Group in Bern City has an exceptionally discriminating palateandis notoriously demanding.

"However, these signature dishes prepared by the chef seem to be quite popular." Upon hearing these absurd rumors, Mia suppressed a smile and pressed on, "Besides mentioning Mr. Barrett's discerning and hard-to-please taste, what else did the chef reveal?" She was eager to learn more! As soon as Mia finished speaking, she felt Timothy's subtle gaze on her.

"He didn't mention much else, only that Mr. Barrett has a very selective palate and is difficult to please.

"The Barrett family changes chefs

frequently, and he stayed there for quite some time before eventually quitting.

"However, the chef's culinary skills remain commendable. I've sampled these dishes, and they're quite impressive." Upon hearing this, Mia exchanged a meaningful glance with Timothy, who stood at the door. "I never imagined Mr. Barrett would have such a negative reputation outside." Glancing at the dishes on the table, Timothy replied coldly, "It's all unfounded." After all, Timothy's culinary preferences had always been inconsistent; he was content with mild flavors and had no fixed preferences for specific dishes. Therefore, the

chef's claim was clearly untrue.

Perhaps this chef had never actually worked at the Barrett residence.

Dylan's displeasure was evident upon hearing this. "You're just a bodyguard, what do you know? How can you be so certain that the chef is lying? After all, he has previously worked for the Barrett family. While his claims might be somewhat exaggerated, they're unlikely to be entirely baseless." Upon hearing Dylan's defense, Mia suppressed a smile and nodded. "You make a valid point. There must be some truth to it. After all, rumors often contain a kernel of truth.

"If this supposed Mr. Barrett was easy to please, the chef wouldn't be criticizing him behind his back."

Dylan chimed in, "Besides, we all know that wealthy individuals are notoriously hard to please." ~~ "Exactly," Mia agreed.

Timothy's expression hardened. "If you don't believe me, there's nothing more I can do." Dylan found Timothy's response somewhat odd. He spoke with a tone reminiscent of the "Mr. Barrett" himself, which struck Dylan as overly arrogant.

Dylan swiftly changed the topic and offered Mia some food, saying, "Let's move on from this, Mia. We should probably eat before the dishes get cold." Observing Dylan's sudden attentiveness to Mia, Timothy's

expression turned cold. "Hey, you might want to think twice about using that fork to serve her. It's been in your mouth, so it's definitely contaminated with your saliva." Mia's already waning appetite vanished upon hearing this remark.

Feeling embarrassed, Dylan quickly apologized, "Mia, I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention." However, Mia didn't dwell on it. She understood that Timothy was deliberately trying to disgust her and spoil her appetite.

After indulging in a few bites of dessert, she gently placed her cup down and declared, "Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."

She felt the urge to step outside for some fresh air.

After Mia departed, the atmosphere in the private lounge immediately grew tense.

Dylan's gentle smile vanished instantly, replaced by a vigilant expression as he fixed his gaze on Timothy by the door.

"As a bodyguard, you should know your boundaries and refrain from desiring what isn't yours. Ms. Lane is the heiress of the Lane family, and though she may find you somewhat interesting for now, she won't end up with you."
