Chapter 26
In less than ten minutes, George charged into the kitchen. “What happened? Master Lucius threw all
the food
away!”
When Violet hurried to the study, she saw the floor littered with broken porcelain and food. The place
stank with the smell of food. The bikini lady stood at the entrance while trembling in fear. Her arrogance NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
was gone without a trace, and she pointed a shaking finger in Violet’s direction. “She cooked the food!”
Lucius sat behind his office table with his expression as dark as a thundercloud. When he saw Violet,
he glared at her.
Violet did not bother arguing. She just lifted the tray in her hands. “Mine’s right here.”
The bikini lady looked at her in disbelief. She clearly remembered Violet not doing anything while she
was cooking. When she saw the two bowls full of simple liquid on her tray, she sighed in relief and
smirked.
She changed her original statement. “I’m sorry, Lucius. When I saw her trying to slack off, I decided to
cook. The stuff I made was all-”
Lucius ignored her and strode over. When he saw the stuff in one of the bowls, he scowled. “What’s
this?”
“Vegetable dumplings.” Violet answered coolly.
“And this?”
“Vegetable soup.”
The bikini lady took a step forward and continued to fan the flames. “See that, Lucius? She didn’t put in
any work when cooking for you.”
But Lucius did not even look at her. He just said, “Feed me.”
Didn’t he already finish his work? Why should Violet feed him again?
Violet did not want to do it, but George gave her a look. If Lucius threw a tantrum, no one would be able
to handle him. She was their only hope at the moment.
“Hurry up!”
Lucius went over to the sofa and sat down like he was some sort of king. Violet noted the paleness of
his face. Well anyone would feel weak if they did not eat for two days. She wanted him to die, but there
were plenty of people around, so she was definitely not going to have her wish fulfilled.
In the end, she reluctantly went over to him.
He clearly thought she was walking too slowly, for he pulled her over and nearly made her spill the
soup. Violet picked up a dumpling and blew on it. Once she was sure it was no longer steaming hot,
she delivered it to his mouth. Lucius chewed on it before he suddenly stopped.
Violet’s heart leapt to her throat. He did not like it.
The bikini lady had fisted her shirt because she did not want to admit defeat, but she loosened her grip
at that moment. She saw hope. Meanwhile, George was so tense that his back was rod straight, and
sweat rolled
down his forehead.
Lucius swallowed. “Soup.”
When he finished both the dumplings and the soup, George relaxed. He also gave Violet a thankful
smile. The bikini lady could not accept this and kept shaking her leg, but she was smart and said
nothing else. She just
left.
Once Lucius was full, he returned to the study room to wrap up work. To other people, two days were
just forty- eight hours, but to him, they were a few billion earned.
George seized the opportunity to say, “Madam, please cook for Master Lucius in the future.”
Violet shrugged. She did not believe that she had wormed her way into Lucius’s stomach. She only got
lucky twice. If he could get sick of top-class Ingredients, then he could get sick of normal food too.
“I’ll just continue weeding the garden.”
Her chances of survival would only increase if she reduced contact with him.
Violet waved George goodbye and headed outside..
George stared at her back strangely.
