Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 1317

Chapter 1317 Something Off with the Tea

“That’s… That’s for Mrs. Kooper, sir. I can get you another cup if you want some.”

The servant seemed really panicked and almost reached out to snatch the cup back.

Kisa stared at the servant skeptically. She had a nagging feeling something was off.

‘It’s just a cup of tea. Besides, Kelvin is here to treat Ms. Mullen’s legs; this makes his status more distinguished than mine, so that cup of tea should be given to Kelvin first. Since Kelvin had snatched it away himself, it should be fine. Why’s this servant in such a panic?’ she wondered.

“I can’t drink it just because it’s for her?” Kelvin glanced at the servant icily.

He continued, “As a guest of the Mullen family and someone who’s here to treat Ms. Mullen’s legs, I can’t even have a cup of tea when I’m thirsty?”

Then, he downed the entire cup of tea angrily.

‘Tsk! I’m the young master of the Hoover family and have an entourage whenever I leave the house, yet here I am, being sidelined by a servant. I’m speechless,‘ thought Kelvin.

Mrs. Mullen Sr. was worried that Kelvin would get angry, so she quickly reprimanded the servant,” Mr. Hoover is our guest; how could you be so inattentive to him. Since he’s already taken the tea, get Mrs. Kooper a new cup.”

“Yes… Yes.”

The servant glanced at Kisa before hurrying back into the house.

Vivian pulled her mother aside, “Forget it, mom. Not many people come to my place often; she’s just not used to it.”

“Hmph! If it wasn’t because she had taken care of you over these years, I would’ve fired her just

now.”

“Alright. The truth is, your family’s hospitality is questionable, so don’t blame everything on the servants.”

Kelvin leaned onto the chair and said slowly.

‘Truth be told, I’m not that fond of the Mullen family because of Anthony Mullen. If it weren’t because Kisa wanted me to treat Ms. Mullen’s legs, I wouldn’t even bother coming,‘ he thought.

Mr. Mullen Sr. glanced at him and suddenly snorted, “Even if the Mullen family really has problems with hospitality, we do have basic etiquette. The Mullen family treated you, Mr. Kooper, and Mrs. Kooper with the best etiquette, did we not?”
