No One But You novel Chapter 69

The Knight family’s dining room was incredibly enormous, where there was a super long rectangular table. Master Knight sat on the prime seat in the east, and Calvin’s father sat on that in the west. I suspected that both of them didn’t dare to look at each other’s expressions on their face.

I asked Zofia to seat herself by my side, and I saw Angel on the table, who was sitting in the inner corner, inconspicuous.

I was sitting opposite Calvin and Fairy.

What an ostentation it was for only a breakfast! The eldest man was supposed to be the butler, who was standing behind Master Knight and shouted out, "Serve up!"

Then the waiters began to serve dishes on the table one after another.

Zofia and I had never seen such a scene before, so I hurried to jab at Zofia with my finger, "Take out the cellphone and take photos quickly, hurry up!"

"How can I take photos with so many people here."

"It’s a rare scene. Hurry up!"

"Do you think you come here just for an experience? Aren’t you going to live such a life every day in the future?" Zofia lowered her voice.

Well, so it was.

I looked down and tapped at the table with my hand in order to investigate what material the table was made of. With a surface so smooth, it looked like a good one.

"It seems to be made of sandalwood." I said to Zofia.

"In my opinion, it is made of agarwood, because it is so hard."

"Don’t be a rube. The agarwood is black, isn’t it?"

"Is it made of padauk?"

"I think it is made of rosewood."

Brookee, who was sitting next to me, couldn’t help finally, "Mesua ferrea."

He should have said it earlier.

There were ten bowls and eight dishes on the table, and the breakfast was so sumptuous, with Chinese food as well as western food, fruits, salad and raw ham, which was sliced by the cook with a plane.

Georgia liked the raw ham, but I didn’t like her, who looked like a crafty person.

Georgia was Brooke’s mother and the principle wife of Calvin’s father.

I had no interest in raw ham, but the abalone with rice gruel was very good. The fresh abalone was so big, soft and delicious. I had eaten two bowls within three minutes.

Angel, who was sitting far away from me, suddenly opened her mouth and whispered, looking at me, "The abalone with rice gruel is of cold nature. Don’t eat too much."

If anyone else had said this to me, I should have said "It’s none of your business".

But towards Angel, I couldn’t speak it out.

I was about to ask Stella behind me to give me a third bowl, but I stopped.

At this time, Georgia, sitting next to Philip said, "Well, hearing that, I would think Josephine is your daughter-in-law, but she is pregnant with my son’s child."

She was so domineering, and undisguised.

It was not absolutely the first time for her to humiliate Angel in front of Calvin’s father and Master Knight.

It irritated me when I saw Georgia humiliate Angel.

"God mother is right. I will never eat abalone anymore." I smiled at Angel.

Brooke put a piece of raw ham on my plate, and said in a light voice, from which I heard kind of warning, "When did auntie become your god mother?"

"I identified her as god mother yesterday. Don’t you know it?" I bit the chopstick and looked at him, grinning.

Georgia lost her face, but what I said just now was not addressed to her directly. Her face darkened a little, "She is your aunt, and you identified her as god mother. Where is the family hierarchy?"

"I think it is good to have her as my god mother since she is not my biological mother." I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly, and then I threw the raw ham given by Brooke in my plate to the table, "I don’t like it."

Raw ham was the favorite of Georgia. Seeing me throw away the raw ham, she looked even angrier.
