His Ugly Bride (Anna and Sebastian) novel Chapter 553

Soon, Jenny came out with water and brought a plate of pastries.

She put the pastry on the coffee table and handed the water to Summer. "I saw dessert, so I brought some over. This was made yesterday.

Mr. Connel thought it was delicious."

Summer tasted it. It was not very sweet, and a little glutinous.

Seeing Jenny looking at her expectantly, Summer said, "You are a good cook."

"I know how to make other pastries. If you stay here for a while longer, I'll make them for you." Jenny smiled and narrowed her eyes, looking innocent and cute.

However, no matter how hard she pretended to be innocent, she could no longer deceive

Summer.

Besides a servant who managed the courtyard and a servant who cleaned up the villa, Jenny was the only servant in this villa.

Although Jenny was doing servant's work, she was different from other servants. Compared to others, Jenny was obviously 'senior'.

Jenny told Summer before that she and Connel had the same foster father, so Connel did not treat her as a servant.

Summer hid her thoughts in her eyes and said seriously, "Jenny, you are a good chef. I don't want to leave. I'm worried that you may feel disturbed if I live here for a long time."

Jenny smiled more happily. She excitedly held onto Summer's hand and said, "How can it be? There are only a handful of people in this villa. It is rare for us to receive a guest. Your arrival is very welcome!"

Summer glanced at her hand that was grasped by Jenny. Jenny's face was filled with shock, and she withdrew her hand embarrassedly. "I'm sorry. I'm just too happy."

"It's fine." Summer draw back her hand and smiled, "It's getting late. You'd better go to bed first."

Jenny nodded. "Alright. You can go up first. I'll clear up."

After Summer finished, she went upstairs and returned to her room.

In the hall downstairs, when Jenny was tidying up, she heard footsteps coming from the stairs.

She looked up, and found Connel standing on the stairs looking at her with a serious expression.

After giving him a glance, Jenny withdrew her gaze, as if she didn't see him. Connel only took a look at her and then went upstairs.

After Summer returned to her room, she couldn't sleep soundly. Thus, when she woke up the next day, she had dark circles around her eyes.

She and Connel met at the dining table. Summer only had her breakfast with Leonard, and Stanley. Now, Connel was the third man.

Connel's appearance was almost identical to Stanley's, but Summer understood that he was Stanley's twin brother, Connel.

To her, Connel was a familiar stranger.

Connel examined Summer for a while and said, "It seems like you didn't sleep well last night."

Summer blamed him, "Your house is to blame for its bad Fengshui."

Connel suddenly laughed and said, "Isn't it because you sleepwalked last night?"

"I sleepwalked?" Summer's heart skipped a beat, and she had an intuition that Connel knew something.

"I'm a cautious person who cherishes life. I don't even know how many pinhole cameras there are in this villa." Summer would be a fool if she could not understand what Connel meant.

She had paid attention to look for cameras installed in the villa yesterday. Because she did not see any cameras, she went upstairs to investigate the situation in the villa last night.
