At that moment, an elderly man dressed as a gardener was trimming the bushes ahead, and Sophie took a few steps forward to ask, "Excuse me..."
The old man turned around, his face half-covered with a red scarf, but Sophie immediately recognized him.
In this life, Sophie had only met Lennon twice, but she had heard countless legendary stories about him in her previous one.
Moreover...
Despite wearing inconspicuous clothes, who else would wear bespoke French designer boots to tread through the muddy ground? Not to mention, the gardener outfit Lennon wore was a limited edition.
The whole ensemble was worth at least seven figures. Who else's gardener could command such a salary?
Sophie did not expose him immediately but instead asked, "Excuse me, where is the main gate?"
Faced with Sophie's question, Lennon, with a stern face, said, "If you want to know, help me weed first."
Lennon pointed to the ground in front of them, which, despite not being overly weedy, was something the wealthy young ladies would find too dirty to handle and wouldn't want to go near.
Sophie didn’t argue and went straight to weeding for Lennon.
Lennon was slightly surprised by Sophie's action and took a closer look at her. Unexpectedly, Sophie, despite being a lady of wealth, was undeterred by weeding and spent half an hour in the garden without a single complaint.
"Alright." Suddenly, Lennon interrupted Sophie.
After finishing with the last of the weeds, Sophie stood up and asked, "Sir, is there anything else you need?"
Lennon had thought about making Sophie go through more trouble, but noticing her disheveled state, he coughed once and said, "No, there's nothing else..."
Before Sophie could speak, Lennon asked, "Can you process vegetables?"
"Yes."
Lennon was immediately pleased when he heard Sophie say she could. "Then come with me!"
He led Sophie through the back door to the kitchen on the first floor.
The Costello family's kitchen was huge, looking as if it could prepare meals for dozens of people.
"Come on, hurry!" Lennon called Sophie over, saying, "I asked you that because you were diligent in weeding. The Costello family old man really loves homemade meals. I know you're the Costello family's future granddaughter-in-law. Can you cook?"
"Yes, of course."
Sophie smiled, and Lennon, even more delighted, said, "That's wonderful! You have no idea. It's been years since the Costello patriarch had a homemade meal! The chef's food is good, but it's not the same as what family members make!"
Lennon asked, "Child, what do you like to eat?"
