"Why is Mr. Cristian's wife in the kitchen washing dishes?"
"It seems like Mr. Alessandro asked her to."
"How can that be? Her friend is still here. It seems that Mr. Alessandro is very kind to that girl. He smiles at her all the time. I've never seen Mr. Alessandro treat someone so well before."
"Do you think Mr. Alessandro doesn't like Mr. Cristian's wife, so he wants to find him another one? So...!
These comments entered Serena's ears. The movement of her hands stopped. A plate slipped and fell to the floor, making a deafening noise.
Several maids looked at each other and whispered.
"Stop talking, or she will be angry. Have you forgotten the last time?"
"Let's go away."
A group of people ran out of the kitchen.
So Serena was the only one left in the kitchen. She stood in front of the sink and looked at the mountains of dishes. Suddenly she felt very sick.
Alessandro... Was it true that he wanted to arrange a marriage between Alice and Leonardo? Could he really think of combining Alice with Cristian?
Besides, whether it was Cristian or Leonardo, all depended on whether Alice was willing or not.
What was she thinking?
Serena bent down to pick up the shards on the ground.
A very tall person came up to her and took her hands before she touched the shards. He had a calm voice.
"Don't touch them."
That familiar voice made Serena raise her head in amazement, and then she came across a tender look.
"Leonardo?"
Why was Leonardo here?
"Don't touch them with your bare hands. The shards are sharp and you will hurt yourself."
As he spoke, Leonardo took her in his arms and helped her up.
Serena was stunned for a few seconds, and retracted her hand. Leonardo turned around, grabbed a broom, swept up all the shards, and then threw them away.
In any case, his actions were kind. Serena could not get angry with him. She could only nod, "Thank you, Leonardo."
She turned on the faucet and washed the remaining dishes.
"Don't do that." Leonardo walked over, turned off the faucet, frowned, and said, "Leave these things for the maids. Go upstairs."
"But..." Alessandro asked her to do so. If she didn't, she would be...
"My grandfather just said it. He won't come to check if you wash or not. You don't need to stay here. Go upstairs."
After thinking about it, Serena shook her head, "Never mind. It's not a problem for me to do this."
Serena opened the faucet again. Her movements were very skillful. She had done these things before, but since marrying Cristian she had rarely done them. Doing them again today was not a strange thing for her.
Seeing that she was very familiar to that kind of work. Leonardo felt distressed.
"Aren't you offended?"
