Chapter 167 Call Her Honey in Public
1/4
“There are so many servants in this house. I am the mistress of the Shawn family, not a maid or a servant. It’s not my place to do the houseworks,” Chloe declared firmly.
For the past three years, Chloe had been at their beck and call.
Every year, she prepared meals for Admas’s birthday.
Yet, despite her day–long efforts, she would receive barely at word of praise from anyone except Admas. Instead, they would nitpick, criticizing everything from the taste to the presentation.
Since she was apparently so inept, she would let someone else handle the task this year.
Chloe’s words left the entire family speechless.
Cathy, somewhat resentfully, interjected, “Chloe, while that may be true, it’s Grandpa’s birthday today. As the mistress of the Shawn family, shouldn’t you do something to show your appreciation?”
“Why don’t you do something then? You’re the youngest here,” Chloe said.
The youngest should be the one be the one to do the housework.

She was neither the eldest nor the youngest, so it was never her turn to do such tasks anyway.
Her words momentarily silenced Cathy. “You! It’s not that I don’t know how to cook. I’ve been busy studying all this time; where did I have the time to learn?”
In Cathy’s eyes, cooking was something that only housewives. like Chloe, who had nothing else to offer, should do.
She was a top student!
“Haven’t you been graduated for half a year now? You still
haven’t found a job, so you should have plenty of time on your hands. The chefs here are all five–star level. If you want to learn, they can teach you.”
Chloe wasn’t about to let anyone get away with belittling her.
She was ready to fire back at every jab.
As Cathy pouted, Admas descended from the stairs.
She hurried forward with a smile, “Grandpa, look at Chloe! I merely suggested she help in the kitchen, and she retorted that I, having just graduated and idle, should learn to cook.”
Admas was her grandfather, after all.
In Cathy’s mind, he wouldn’t favor Chloe, an outsider, over his granddaughter.

Admas glanced at her. “You don’t learn to cook and let Chloe learn? Are you more precious than her?”
Cathy’s arm linked with Admas stiffened.

Her instinctive reaction was to blurt out that, of course, she was more precious than Chloe,
Fortunately, Victoria noticed something was amiss and quickly walked over to push Cathy away from Admas.
“Dad, happy birthday. This is a gift that Cathy and I prepared for you together.”
Admas loved painting and flowers, and as he got older, he became interested in retro elements.
So Victoria considered this a good choice this time and bought Admas a set of high–end luxury goods, which were vintage clothes.
The eye–catching orange bag appeared in front of Admas, and Cathy immediately took out the clothes as if offering a treasure.
It was a suit, and the workmanship looked exquisite.
However, it was a foreign brand, and the workmanship was not as good as the local one.
Admas took a look and put it back in the bag indifferently.
Chapter 167 Call Her Honey in Public “Well, it’s thoughtful of you.”
His attitude left both Victoria and Cathy at a loss.
