Martin was always getting straight to the point and never dragging things out. In the past, he would've just gone straight to work, but now he was waiting til tomorrow.
Martin couldn't help but laugh as he explained, "Ms. Bishop just invited me to have dinner at your home tonight... she said she's prepared a dinner."
So that was it.
Sebastian calmly said, "Alright, do it tomorrow."
This girl sure knew how to go with the flow, even buttering up the people around him just to cook a meal.
But when they got home that night, he found out that Stephanie was like a siren.
Not only could she tame Martin, but even Judith's gaze became a lot softer when looking at her... If a stranger was present, they would really think Stephanie was Judith's own daughter.
"Steph, the boss is back," Judith hurriedly informed Stephanie.
Stephanie rushed out of the kitchen, saying, "Silver Fox, you're back!"
Sebastian gave a slight nod, "Is dinner ready?"
"It's ready, just wait a moment as I serve the soup first. Having soup before dinner is good for you, my mom says." Said Stephanie.
"Steph, I can serve it. You go rest." Said Judith.
"Oh, Judith, you've already done so much for me. It's just the dishes. I can do it." Said Stephanie.
"Steph is really well-behaved, diligent and sensible, and pretty too." Said Judith.
"Oh, Judith, you’re making me blush with your compliments…" Said Stephanie.
The conversation between the two could be heard coming from the kitchen.
Martin grinned, "Ms. Bishop seems to get along pretty well with my mom."
Sebastian responded coolly, "Judith has a good temper."
"My mom, with a good temper? You don't really know, but my cousin always gets scolded by her.” Said Martin.
Was Martin saying that Stephanie was well-behaved?
Where was she well-behaved?
She was more like a cunning little fox!
Dinner was lively, with both Martin and Judith continuously complimenting Stephanie.
