Bowen followed her to the dining room. Once there, he took a step before her and said, â Maâam, hereâs
your bre⦠Huh?â
What he saw shocked him for there were two women eating the breakfast specially prepared by the
nutritionist for Corinne.
âMiss Francine, didnât you already have your breakfast? Why are you eating Maâamâs breakfast?â
Bowen asked with a frown.
Francine continued eating while she said, âOh, I didnât know this was her breakfast. The food has been
sitting out here without anyone touching them so I thought the kitchen made it for my friend who has so
graciously come to visit me. Plus, it would be a shame if the food went cold before anyone got to enjoy
them.
She then piled on some bacon on Anyaâs plate. âHere, Anya. Itâs so rare for you to drop by our house
so make sure you eat more, âkay?â While doing that, she secretly threw a provocative glance at
Corinne.
As for Anya, she ate one bite after another as though showing off to Corinne who Francineâs favorite
person was. Corinne simply looked at them with an indifferent smirk on her face.
After drinking some milk, Anya got up and pretended to be embarrassed. âOh no. I didnât know this was
your breakfast, Corinne. So sorry. I was kinda hungry just now and thought I might as well join Francine
since she asked me whether Iâve had my breakfast yet⦠I hope you wonât get mad at us, Corinne. I
swear we didnât mean to eat your breakfastâ¦â
Corinne raised her eyebrow and smiled for a second. âItâs alright. Youâre the guest so you should eat
first.â
The word âguestâ caused the fake smile on Anyaâs face to stiffen. âUgh⦠Francine is right. She hasnât
been back for a day but sheâs already acting like sheâs the mistress of the household! How dare she
use the word guest on me to show off her position in the Holden family?! Pah! Sheâs not worthy of
being called Missus Holden. The only thing sheâs good at is using Jeremyâs power to bully other
people!â
Bowen sighed helplessly when he saw the plates were already half-empty. âUmm⦠Maâam, please
have a seat while I go and ask the kitchen to remake the breakfast for you.â
Corinne glanced at the breakfast spread on the table and knew it would take a while, not to mention,
very troublesome for the kitchen to make another for her. Moreover, she did not want to sit at the same
dining table with Anya because she could not stomach her face.
Thus, she waved her hand and said, âItâs okay, Bowen. Iâll order some takeout.â
âIâm afraid that wonât do. Theyâre not only unhealthy but unclean too. Besides, itâll only take a moment
for the kitchen to make breakfast for you.
Corinne shook her head. âPlease, Bowen. Thereâs really no need to go through all that trouble. Iâm not
going to eat it even if you ask the kitchen to make me another one. In fact, tell the kitchen to get lunch
ready and Iâll settle my own breakfast.â
âOh fine⦠Iâll ask the kitchen to prepare some of your favorites for lunch then.â
âThat would be lovely. Thanks.â
Bowen sighed again before turning to go to the kitchen. As soon as he had left, Francine burst into
laughter. âHaha! Did you hear that, Anya? She said sheâs going to order takeout. No sane wife of a
wealthy and powerful man would ever order takeout. Thatâs poor peopleâs food.â
Anya smirked and continued eating Corinneâs breakfast. She was in total agreement with what
Francine said.
âAnya, Iâm sure youâve never ever ordered takeout before, right? âCause socialites like us will never eat
those cheap food reserved for the commoners,â Francine added. âEven on the low occasion we order
takeout, itâs in the form of professional chefs, who only use the freshest and highest quality ingredients,
coming to our house to cook for us. Unlike some country bumpkin who I bet has never eaten anything
good in her life so she has to make do with eating junk food!â
