Lindsey's POV

"Thanks for inviting us to hang out at Splatburger Max and Lindsey." Nora smiled.

"I didn't invite you to hang out. I invited you to pay." Max told her and handed Nora the check.

"Max." I rolled my eyes and took the check from Nora. "I'll pay."

"Hello Thunderbrats and Little Burnest."

I mentally groaned when I heard Mrs. Wong's voice. I leaned my head on Max's shoulder and he placed his hand on my thigh, giving me a soft kiss on the head.

"Mrs. Wong? What are you doing here?" Nora asked her.

Who cares why she is here? Asking her will only make her stay longer.

"I'm passing out samples of my chili." Mrs. Wong explained, giving us each a sample of her chilly. "The Chili Wars Cooking Show is coming to Hiddenville and I'm in it to win it."

"Why you here at Splatburger? This isn't your restaurant." Max asked her.

"It is now. Soon I will own every restaurant in Hiddenville and you won't be able to escape the long arm of Wong!" She announced, pointing at us before laughing. Max and I shared a look before shaking our heads. "Anyway, enjoy the chili."

I lifted my head up and picked up the chili sample.

"Everything taste better when it's free." I mentioned and we each took a bite. I gagged and crinkled my nose. That was disgusting.

"Except this!" Max gagged and we all spit out the disgusting food that was called chili.

"That does not deserve to be named chili." I remarked, wiping my mouth.

"I can make better chili then this. Right here at this table." Max declared. "Watch. Burrito. Fried peppers. Hamburger." Max tapped on the tablet to order the food. "And my secret ingredient."

"Love?"

"Grow up, Billy."

I smiled in amusement before Max continued.

"Sweet potato fries!"

All of the food Max order came out of the tube above and lands on the plate.

Max leaned over and used his heat breathe to cook the food and it turned into chili.

"Dig in." Max smiled.

Nora, Billy, and I scooped a little bit of the chilly and tasted it.

"That's delicious!" I praised my boyfriend.

"Yum!"

"That's awesome! How'd you learn to cook like that?" Billy asked his brother.

"I was in my lair trying to make a cherry bomb and next thing I know I made a cherry pie that was the bomb!" Max explained with a cute grin.

Mrs. Wong returned which ruined my moon.

"So, everybody enjoying my chili?" She asked with hope.

"No! We're enjoying this chili." Billy denied, gesturing to Max's chilly. "We spit yours out."

Mrs. Wong frowned at this and picked up a spoon. "What?! Let me try."

She dipped her spoon in the chili and tasted it.

"Mhm, not bad." Wong commented and looked at Max. "What's in it?"

"Its a family secret. Sorry Wong." Max apologized.
