The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381

‘Does she think she can do whatever she wants here, just because she’s Corinne’s sister?’ thought the two servants.

However, they had been trained, regardless of the situation, not to show their displeasure to guests, so the two of them respectfully led the Carew’s into the mansion.

Sherlyn had been to the mansion’s grounds before with Corinne, but this was her first time stepping into the mansion, so she was looking curiously at everything around her.

However, she did not seem all too happy when she came to the inner courtyard.

With the air of the woman of the household, she crossed her arms haughtily and looked down her nose at the inner courtyard’s design. Then, shaking her head, she said, “This mansion isn’t that bad, but can we do something about the old -fashioned design? I don’t like this kind of Victorian-era style of decoration. We need to do some revamping once I move in.

“And that old pine tree over there has grown too big. It’s blocking the sunlight from filtering into the mansion. We’ll need to cut it down in the future. The marble floor tiles on the ground will need to be removed too so we can put some high- grade turf of the same quality as the golf course and plant my favorite flower-roses, of course. After all, only a garden that befits a European royal castle will be suitable for my status as a celebrity!

“And oh, those rustic potted plants over there must also be thrown away, or it’ll affect the overall appearance of the garden.”

Lilliana nodded to everything Sherlyn said. “You’re right, Sherlyn. I also think the yard is too plain. It’ll be a pity if we don’t do something about it.”

The two servants who were leading the way exchanged glances with each other. They were both annoyed and speechless, wondering what was wrong with Corinne’s family. How could they think about renovating the mansion’s grounds as if they owned the place?

To Sherlyn and Lilliana, it might just be some plain old yard, but to the Holdens, every plant and tree there was a treasure. The 100-year-old pine tree, for example, had been in the family longer than Jeremy had been alive. Then, there were all the rustic potted plants which were all of Greg’s favorites. He spent countless hours, effort, and money to make sure they were all taken care of.

It was obvious to the servants Sherlyn and Lilliana had no idea just how rare some of the orchids in the yard were. The

orchids, which were the apples in Greg’s eyes, were even harder to get than gold, and they lived an even more pampered life than some humans in this world! The servants were sure Sherlyn and Lilliana would not live to see another day if they threw the orchids away.
