The three of thera entered the small villa that Jonathan had given to Mandy, Jonathan had provided all they needed and even hired a housekeeper and a cook for them.
As they entered, the tantalizing aroma of food filled the air.
Before long, Mandy emerged, carrying a pot of soup
“Jonathan, you’re here. Please sit down. The meal is ready, We can start eating” She placed the soup on the table, her eyes filled with warmth and joy.
Michelle ushered them to their seats and added, “My mom made all of these dishes herself. They’re all her specialties.”
“Don’t we have a cook? Jonathan asked, perplexed. He had specifically hired a cook for them, hoping to improve their meals and provide balanced nutrition
“I gave the cock a day off. You rarely visit, and I wanted you to eat the food I prepared,” Mandy said gently.
The simplicity of her words induced a wave of guilt within Jonathan. Recently, he realized he had seldom visited this place.
“Come, come, let’s eat,” Mandy called to them invitingly.
Over the course of the meal, which stretched for more than half an hour, Mandy served a full table of dishes. During this time, Michelle alterated between recommending dishes to Cynthia and Shirley and pouring them freshly squeezed juice. Even the usually placid Shirley seemed a bit overwhelmed by her enthusiasm.
As for Mandy, aside from offering some attention to Cynthia and Shirley, she spent most of her time serving food to Jonathan.
After the meal, Mandy went to cut some fruit. Jonathan was not sure how to describe his feelings. He had no idea that she had sent the cook home, and he wondered how long it had taken to prepare all this food.
The group sat together, leisurely enjoying the fruit and engaging in idle chatter. Twenty minutes into the conversation, Cynthia glanced at the time and decided it was about right to broach the main topic. “Mandy, I would like to have a private discussion with you. Is that alright?” she began
Caught off guard, Mandy glanced at Janathan before hurriedly responding, “Certainly”
“Please, follow me.” Cynthia requested.
“Of course.” Mandy’s mariner was accommodating. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
As she stood up to leave with Cynthia, she did not forget to instruct Michelle, “Michelle, take good care of Uncle Jonathan and
Shirley.”
“I know,” Michelle replied obediently
Given what had transpired previously, Jonathan no longer trusted her. Now when he saw Michelle, he was reminded of how she had deceived him and made wild speculations about his relationship with Cynthia
However, he had to maintain a neutral demeanor, as he was the elder and potentially her future stepfather. “Uncle Jonathan? she began.
“Yes, what is it?“” be responded.
“I want to formally apologize to you for my past mistakes, I will find a decent job and work hard. I hope you will not dislike my mother because of me,” Michelle said sincerely, her eyes filled with remors
Jonathan paused, taken aback by her words.
“My mother truly cares for you,” she continued
“I understand,” Jonathan replied, his expression a mix of emotions.
