Uncle's Love: My Sweet Little Wife novel Chapter 196

Standing aside, Jenny listened to Emily's comments on Kara and felt quite pleased.

She didn't understand how Kara, who had just a few advantages, could gain James' adoration. Therefore, she was very angry when Kara criticized her.

She thought that Kara deserved these vicious words.

However, she was surprised that Kara should take in every word of Emily with a smile.

This made Kara whether stupid or hypocritical.

Seeing that Kara answered her question with a polite smile all the time, Emily was annoyed.

She said, "It's been quite a while since I came here, why hasn't the tea been ready yet?"

Kara gritted her teeth as she was a little uncomfortable with serving tea and Emily had known that. She knew that Emily was deliberately offending her.

"Sorry, Aunt Emily. I'm not very good at it. Jenny is my secretary, why not ask her to serve you tea instead."

It was the secretaries' duty to make tea for the guests. Kara had the right to ask Jenny to do so.

Jenny froze as she did not expect that Kara would turn to her.

However, she wasn't going to offer help.

Thus, she smiled awkwardly and said in a sorry tone, "Miss Kara, I'm afraid I can't help. There are other things I need to attend to after I get these documents. Please excuse me."

...

Kara was a little dissatisfied.

But she didn't intend to make Jenny linger on.

On the other hand, Emily wouldn't let Kara go so easily. She thought it was mild to make Kara only be scalded once.

She thought the rightful lesson Kara should get is getting a scald serious enough to be sent to the hospital.

"Kara, don't find excuses. If you really respect me as your aunt, why can't you serve me tea?"

Kara wanted to roll her eyes when she was accused of being disrespectful.

She thought, 'Why can't you be a person worth being respected?'

Kara reluctantly squatted down again and carefully checked the buttons on the kettle to make sure it was okay for her to carry it up.

Emily looked coldly at Kara's delicate hands and her careful movement, despising her even more.

She thought with confidence, 'As naive and simple-minded as her, she will dare not to disobey me ever again.'

Thinking of her own daughter being teased by Kara several times and even driven abroad, at last, she wanted to splash the kettle of boiling water onto Kara's face.

She wanted Kara to suffer the humiliation her daughter used to suffer.

...

It was not because that Kara was ignorant that she did not know how to make tea. It was because she had never done it in person before.

Being with James, she was treated like a princess. James had never asked her to serve him tea before.

Kara knew how to boil the kettle of water, but she didn't know how to use this high-tech machine to make tea.

After trying for a while, she finally made a cup of tea. She took a deep breath as the scent of the tea spread in the office.

Judging from the fragrance of the tea, she could tell that this tea was definitely of high quality.

She poured a cup of tea and delivered it to Emily.

On the other side, James, who had finally finished the meeting walked quickly back to his office.

Although he was quite used to tense work, he blamed his work for being too much since he wanted to see Kara as soon as possible.

Seeing his energetic steps and cheerful expression, Nolan also felt very glad.

He knew that James could only be this happy because of Kara.

He also quickened his pace and came to James' office ahead of James to open the door for him.
