Wesley forced a stiff smile. "Avery is already exceptional. There's nothing we need to teach her. But your own child, fresh back from overseas, doesn't even have the guts to show their face. Are they that ashamed?"
The tension in the room shot up immediately. The guests thought, 'Wow, they're already going at it.'
The Murphy family's expressions soured. Regina sneered, "Mr. and Mrs. Carter, tonight's dinner includes French cuisine. Do you even know how to eat it? Would you like us to give you a hands-on lesson?"
Arthur didn't miss a beat. "Your kid just got back from abroad. Do they even know how to use a fork? Maybe we should give them a lesson."
At this, Josie raised her tiny hand and said in her sweet, childish voice, "I know how to use a fork. I can teach them."
