The old man was a very smart man.
He didn't directly point out that he had already known their relationship, but he said it from another angle.
The thin fingertip just touched the bread, and it was still there.
After a second's hesitation, the woman took back her hand and brought the ketchup. She loved the taste of ketchup more than butter.
She dipped the bread into the red thick sauce with knife and fork, and her lips were held lightly. "Since Grandpa knows everything, why did you ask me such questions?"
"So you have been married for such a long time, have you two been sleeping separately?"
Sarah was not going to deny it.
This was her task. She must complete it for the payers after getting their money.
The longer time they wasted, the more useless it was for two people.
Thin red lips opened slightly, "Yes, he always said that he was busy at work. I thought I should understand him. Grandpa, how busy was Andrew? Did he often stay up late like recently?"
Facing her careful exploration, the old man became silent.
The turbid deep eyes quietly looked at the bread with butter in his hands. He kept holding it, but he forgot eating it.
For a while, when Sarah was drinking milk, the old man put down his bread and said, "Have you quit your jobs?"
Suddenly another topic came up. Sarah was not able to respond.
She nodded and swallowed the bread heavily. "I've resigned all of me jobs. I have listened to your advice."
"Good." The old man sighed with satisfaction.
After a moment, the butler John brought a bowl of porridge and offered it to the old man. Then the butler left.
Sarah saw that the old man threw away the bread in his hand and drank porridge.
She didn't know why.
"Since you have quit your jobs, you can go to my place to work. I have already informed the staff there."
She had agreed to work in Andrew's company. So today…
But now she has resigned, how can she earn money?
For her who needed money urgently, working in bars was the fastest way to get money. As she quitted her job, her financial path was destroyed.
"I've heard from the manager that you've quitted your job. How can you give up at this time?"
"I'm married."
Sarah suddenly remembered that her marriage was confidential and had not told Anne.
Although it was not worth celebrating, she could share it with her best friend and had someone to talk to in the future.
Anne, "..."
A few seconds later, the person on the phone went crazy!
"Sarah, don't let me look down on you! Just for the sake of a few dollars, you have been the youngest wife of an old man who has half a foot in the coffin. Do you know that you will be beaten?"
