Coolest Girl in Town, Chapter 430
Another two hours went by before Tania placed the final pot of soup on the stove. She heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the scrumptious dishes that she had prepared on the kitchen countertop. She was excited to be praised for her skills, and she hastily brought empty bowls out to set up the dining table.
She had just arranged all the dishes when Alexander came back home. With a broad grin on her face, Tania let out a loud cry. “You’re back, Mr. Griffith! It’s time for dinner!” Upon hearing her, Alexander walked in to take a look at the dishes. He wore a blank look on his face, but he raised an eyebrow when he saw Tania standing by the table. “Who told you to do this?” he asked heartlessly.
“What?” Tania didn’t fully understand what he meant, but she replied to him with a polite and reserved tone. “No one told me to do anything-I decided on this myself. I’d be freeloading if I just lived here without contributing, so I figured that I would prepare your meals so that you don’t have to go over next door. It’d save you some trouble.”
“Did you ask the maids before you prepared the meal?” There wasn’t a hint of warmth in Alexander’s tone.
Tania frowned as she didn’t get what he meant. “I don’t like the smell of oil and smoke at home,” he explained. He walked out of the dining area right after that. Tania remained frozen in her spot for a long while before returning to her senses. I spent the whole day working on this, yet I didn’t get a single good comment. I even violated one of
Alexander’s rules at home!
Her sharp eyes darted all around the room before she hurried along behind Alexander. He was headed in the direction of Elise’s room. When Tania got there, she realized the atmosphere was completely different—there was a cheerful, light atmosphere at the dining table as everyone gathered around for a meal.
Once again, Tania felt herself being enveloped by a layer of embarrassment. She didn’t even know what to do with herself. Right then, a group of people walked through the entrance. These individuals seemed as if they had been trained—they were arranged in two straight lines, and each of them had a gift in their hands. They marched past Tania before entering a horizontal formation and held their gifts up.
