The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 381
âDoes she think she can do whatever she wants here, just because sheâs Corinneâs sister?â thought the
two servants.
However, they had been trained, regardless of the situation, not to show their displeasure to guests, so
the two of them respectfully led the Carewâs into the mansion.
Sherlyn had been to the mansionâs grounds before with Corinne, but this was her first time stepping
into the mansion, so she was looking curiously at everything around her.
However, she did not seem all too happy when she came to the inner courtyard.
With the air of the woman of the household, she crossed her arms haughtily and looked down her nose
at the inner courtyardâs design. Then, shaking her head, she said, âThis mansion isnât that bad, but can
we do something about the old -fashioned design? I donât like this kind of Victorian-era style of
decoration. We need to do some revamping once I move in.
âAnd that old pine tree over there has grown too big. Itâs blocking the sunlight from filtering into the
mansion. Weâll need to cut it down in the future. The marble floor tiles on the ground will need to be
removed too so we can put some high- grade turf of the same quality as the golf course and plant my
favorite flower-roses, of course. After all, only a garden that befits a European royal castle will be
suitable for my status as a celebrity!
âAnd oh, those rustic potted plants over there must also be thrown away, or itâll affect the overall
appearance of the garden.â
Lilliana nodded to everything Sherlyn said. âYouâre right, Sherlyn. I also think the yard is too plain. Itâll
be a pity if we donât do something about it.â
The two servants who were leading the way exchanged glances with each other. They were both
annoyed and speechless, wondering what was wrong with Corinneâs family. How could they think about
renovating the mansionâs grounds as if they owned the place?
To Sherlyn and Lilliana, it might just be some plain old yard, but to the Holdens, every plant and tree
there was a treasure. The 100-year-old pine tree, for example, had been in the family longer than
Jeremy had been alive. Then, there were all the rustic potted plants which were all of Gregâs favorites.
He spent countless hours, effort, and money to make sure they were all taken care of.
It was obvious to the servants Sherlyn and Lilliana had no idea just how rare some of the orchids in the
yard were. The
orchids, which were the apples in Gregâs eyes, were even harder to get than gold, and they lived an
even more pampered life than some humans in this world! The servants were sure Sherlyn and Lilliana
would not live to see another day if they threw the orchids away.
Bowen waited for Sherlyn, Marvin, and Lilliana in the hall, and he immediately walked up to them with a
kind smile as soon as he saw the three of them entering.
âMister Carew, Missus Carew, and Miss Carew, welcome! Maâam will come down to see you as soon
as she finishes washing up.â
Sherlyn glared at him and said, âYouâre that old man who spoke to us through the intercom, right?â
Bowenâs smile immediately froze. He did not expect Corinne to be so rude to him, not when he had
treated them so politely. However, he decided to let it go. He was trained as a
professional butler, after all.
His smile maintained as he said, âYes, Iâm the butler of this household. You may call me Bowen.â
Sherlyn looked him up and down and scoffed. âItâs time to change the butler, too! Heâs too old!â
Bowen was stunned, and a frown appeared on his head. âMy, this young lady is so rude!â
However, no matter how unhappy he was, he kept up his
professionalism and politely said, âMight I invite the three of you to co-â|
He did not even have the chance to finish his sentence before the Carews swaggered into the living
room and sat on the sofa as if they were in their home.
In all his years of serving the Holden family, Bowen never met such brazen guests. Even the dignitaries
and influential members of other prominent families would not dare to act indecently in the mansion.
âWell, I guess Iâve seen everything now,â thought Bowen.
