Realizing that things were about to go south, the other people in the kitchen left. Violet rubbed the back of her head and slowly shimmied away. She wanted to leave as well.
But Lucius grabbed her arm and yanked her over.
Nervous, Violet looked at him, and her heart leapt to her throat again. Did she get on his bad side?
“Are you sad?” he asked and did nothing else.
“Huh?” Violet could not understand what he meant at all.
“Are you sad that I was making out with another woman?” he asked.
“No, nope, not at all.” She shook her head with no hesitation. She had never liked him, so why should she feel
sad? “I do think it’s indecent, though.”
Lucius’s expression turned dark.
He was so angry that Violet felt that if looks could kill, she would be dead.
Violet felt innocent. After all, all she did was tell the truth.
Lucius could see that her eyes held no hidden sadness. His mood turned foul, and he threw a bowl in her
direction.
Violet thought that he was aiming for her, and she instinctively covered her head. The bowl shattered on the
wall behind her. Some of the shards landed on the floor, while some reached her.
Lucius had shattered a porcelain bowl from a set that was worth a few ten thousand dollars!
Violet stared at the shards with her heart bleeding. Even the Wickham family only had two sets of such porcelain ware, and they seldom used them. They only brought them out for important guests.
“Cook ten different dishes for dinner, and make sure there are no repeats!” Lucius ordered after he regained his usual composure. It was as if the shattered bowl on the floor had nothing to do with him.
Then, he walked out. His gait was as relaxed as usual.
Violet patted her chest in relief while feeling dumbfounded. She only registered what he said after some time.
Then, she started cleaning the table and the food.
Cooking ten different dishes was not an easy task. Even if Violet usually did chores around the house, she still ended up scrambling around the kitchen. Fortunately, she managed to finish the ten dishes on time.
She put the food on the table. Her dishes did not look particularly appetizing, nor were they fancy. Lucius’s new flame covered her nose and frowned a little once she sat down beside Lucius. It was clear that she
looked down on the food Violet cooked.
But Lucius said nothing about it. He just picked up his spoon and fork and started eating elegantly. It was a pleasant sight, but somehow, he managed to finish all ten dishes, and well… there was nothing elegant about

Violet and George were shocked. Even his new flame was surprised. Hesitantly, she picked up a slice of pork and ate it but found nothing special about it.
Lucius glared at Violet and ordered, “Clean up the table.” He then went upstairs with his hand around his new flame’s waist.
He was going to screw her right after dinner?
“I hope you get appendicitis!” Violet cursed him in her heart and began cleaning the table. Ever since she was brought here, Lucius had no need to hire a gardener, chef, or dish washer.
Fortunately, George treated her well by giving her the food the chefs made.
Why should she help him save money when he insisted on eating like the poor? Violet ate with gusto.
Once she got upstairs, she found Lucius pinning his new flame against the door and kissing her. He was also groping her, and the scene looked straight out of an adult movie. Violet covered her mouth so that she did not say anything unnecessary. It was better to keep a low profile for her own safety’s sake.
