Chloe, carrying the meat, slowly nodded. “The servants at Lotus Manor always bought from this butcher.” 

Michael was picky, and it was rare for him to enjoy something enough to praise it. 

Chloe hadn’t expected him to like the meat the first time she bought it from this shop. 

He had mentioned that the meat was fresh and tasty. 

Just from that comment, she took note. 

So, even though she didn’t cook, whenever beef, lamb, or pork was on the menu at Lotus Manor, she made sure it was bought from this shop. 

All the servants at Lotus Manor knew this, all except Michael. 

Michael was surprised and somewhat perplexed by her 

response.

Michael interjected softly yet firmly, handing Chloe another piece of lamb, his tone light but laden with an undeniable. pressure for Victoria. 

Victoria, seeing that the two authoritative men in the house were siding with Chloe, could only compromise for the moment.

But Chloe knew the insincerity in Victoria’s words all too well. 

“You’re right. A woman should have her career and settle down early. Cathy isn’t getting any younger, either. It might be time. she considered this, too.” 

Chloe was no longer the silent, smiling type, bearing grievances quietly. 

Since Victoria made her uncomfortable, she was going to make life difficult for Victoria and Cathy.
