The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1336

As a result, Nancy decided to shut her mouth and listen as Melissa continued with her complaints. "Aunt Melissa, please don't be mad with a servant," Leila interrupted. Melissa immediately stopped to hear her out. "Let me go to the kitchen and cook a new dish for you. All these dishes are too oily and are not good for your health." Leila turned to walk towards the kitchen but Melissa grabbed her hand to stop her.

"Leila, I appreciate what you're wanting to do. But you don't have to do that. It has been a while since my daughter-in-law prepared something for me. I would like to ask Sheryl to cook for me today instead."

Melissa turned to look at Sheryl coldly. Knowing that she wouldn't refuse her request, Melissa intentionally said that to exhaust Sheryl.

As a matter of fact, Melissa really didn't care about dinner. She just enjoyed bossing Sheryl around and finding ways to infuriate her because she wasn't the reactive type. Sheryl just remained silent and bore all her unfair treatments.

"Sheryl, would you like to cook for me tonight?" Melissa stared at Sheryl, waiting for her answer.

Her question not only surprised Sheryl, but also Nancy.

Everyone in the room knew that Melissa was stirring up trouble again.

At last, Nancy confirmed that both Melissa and Leila were finding excuses to make things hard for Sheryl. She felt enraged with Melissa and Leila, and sorry for Sheryl. Nancy stepped forward, wanting to argue with Melissa.

"Mrs. Lu…" Before Nancy could finish her words, Sheryl grabbed her hand and pulled her back. Nancy looked at her in confusion.

In turn, Sheryl gave Nancy a look. She shook her head, gesturing for Nancy to stay out of this fight.

"Nancy, can you help me take care of Clark and Shirley? They are very picky." Sheryl called out to Nancy. Seeing the anger in her face, Sheryl was worried that Nancy would be scolded by Melissa which could aggravate to a fight.

Sheryl could see the satisfaction in Melissa's and Leila's eyes and she knew that they were trying to get her into trouble. Still she calmed herself down and tried not to look affected. On the contrary, she was looking for a chance. She came up with a plan to mess with Melissa this afternoon and was wondering how she could carry it out. Now she found the perfect opportunity.

Sheryl said to Melissa indifferently, "Since you've requested, I'll love to cook for you. It will be my pleasure. I will go to the kitchen now. Please give me a few minutes. Dinner will be ready soon."

She ignored the confused expression on Melissa's face and walked straight to the kitchen, a devilish smile creeping onto her face. She remained calm as she walked slowly and steadily.

This made Melissa frustrated. She wanted to see her in panic if not angry. But she found her composure in a snap. Anyway, she had many plans in store to piss Sheryl off.

Leila and Melissa exchanged gaze. They both saw the excitement in each other's eyes as they waited for Sheryl to return with her dishes.

"Aunt Melissa, are you sure you don't want me to go to the kitchen and help Sheryl? I am worried she might use some tricks. After all, she is weirdly obedient." Leila knew that Melissa held some grudges against Sheryl and what she just said poured oil into the flames. She did it on purpose because she looked forward to the fight between Melissa and Sheryl.

Melissa sneered, "She better not pull any stunts. If she dares to do something, I swear I will make her pay."

Melissa's response made Leila more excited. It sounded like Melissa was going to make a scene, so she added, "I don't think that Sheryl would really listen to you and do what you ask her to do. You'd better teach her a lesson later in order to let her know who is in charge in this house. Otherwise, she will never take you seriously and just continue to oppose you."

Hearing Leila, Melissa became more determined to take her chance to teach Sheryl a real lesson.

During this time, Nancy was taking care of kids and feeding them. From time to time, she would glance at Melissa and Leila.

Nancy was anxious and worried about Sheryl all the time because even a fool could tell that Melissa was messing up with her. She couldn't understand why Sheryl would listen to Melissa, acting like it was no big deal.
