Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 1793

Chapter 1793 Leading A Servant’s Life

“How long will she be staying?” Selena expressed her dissatisfaction on her face. “I don’t like having strangers in the house.”

“Of course, I won’t let her stay here for a long time. I plan to kick her out after three days.” After saying that, Olivia made a shushing sound. “Don’t be so loud. Why don’t you return to your room? I’ve placed her in the housekeeper’s room, and your father is unhappy about that.”

After hearing those words, Selena became even more upset. She was jealous that her father was being so lovely to Ellen.

The last two days had been extremely exhausting, so Ellen fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed. She dreamt of her grandmother that night, causing tears to flow down her face again.

The next morning, a knock sounded on Ellen’s door. She immediately got out of bed and changed her clothes. When she opened the door, she saw Olivia standing outside.

“Good morning, Aunt Olivia.”

“Ellie, do you know how to make breakfast? Our housekeeper is on leave, so there’s nobody in the house to make breakfast for us.”

“Yes, I can make breakfast. I know how to make spaghetti.”

“Good! Follow me to the kitchen!” Olivia guided Ellen to the kitchen and took out some pasta, vegetables, and eggs so that Ellen could make breakfast for the entire family.

By the time Connor and Selena woke up, there was already a large bowl of spaghetti on the table. Moreover, Ellen had prepared several beautiful poached eggs to go with the meal. Olivia looked at the sight and sneered silently. So, it’s true that children from poorer families learn to take care of their families from a young age.

Although her daughter did not know how to cook or make any kind of breakfast, she firmly believed that her daughter would marry into a family that would not require her to cook. This way, her daughter’s hands wouldn’t be dry or cracked.

She grudgingly praised Ellen in front of her husband. “Connor, look! Ellie woke up early in the morning just to prepare breakfast for us! It looks absolutely delicious!”

Connor exclaimed in surprise, “Ellie, why did you wake up so early to prepare breakfast?”

“I… I woke up early, so I decided to make breakfast.” Ellen did not dare to tell him that Olivia had woken her up to cook breakfast.

Olivia immediately beckoned Ellen. “Come, Ellie! Let’s sit down and have breakfast together!”

Seeing that Selena had not greeted Ellen, Connor turned toward her and scolded, “Lena, why didn’t you greet Ellie?”
