Chapter 55 She's So Shameless
Eleanor had decided on what dishes to make for today's lunch.
She was going to prepare clay-pot rice with chestnuts, steamed fish, boiled prawn, chicken soup, and meatballs with celery cabbage. These dishes were enough for three people.
Everyone in the big kitchen was busy with their own affairs, and no one dared to offend Eleanor.
They all thought that Sebastian would drive Eleanor away after he woke up. However, much to their surprise, they were almost going to lose their jobs because Eleanor became responsible for Sebastian's three meals.
Gianna walked over smilingly. Seeing that Eleanor prepared to make hand-made meatballs, she asked with a smile, "Eleanor Moore, may I help you?"
Eleanor took a glance at her and shook her head, saying, "I don't dare to bother you, Gianna. After all, you're half a hostess in the Moore family while I just married into the family several days ago."
She was Sebastian's legitimate wife and their marriage had been registered. Although she didn't plan to spend the rest of her life in the family, she still felt annoyed when Gianna called her by her whole name, showing no respect. There were only two explanations for this, that was, Gianna become arrogant after being favored by the members of the Moore family, or, she thought too highly of herself.
But Eleanor preferred the latter explanation. And she thought Gianna should have been bribed.
She'd been suspecting Gianna because the latter had been responsible for Waylon's meals when he was poisoned. And she noticed that whenever she entered the kitchen, Gianna would steal glances at her from time to time.
Since Gianna took the initiative to provoke her, she wouldn't let her off easily.
Gianna also sensed the sarcasm in Eleanor's words. But how would she have the guts to call herself a half-hostess of the Moore family? She was a paid maid at most.
"Then I'll attend to other matters." Gianna left with a smile.
Eleanor replied, "As you like."
Gianna turned around with despise appearing on her face. She cursed inwardly, "B*tch, do you really think yourself a lady of the Moore family? Just look at yourself. You just married into the family several days ago, but you did housework in the kitchen every day. Look at other ladies in the family. None of them needs to do housework. They're all served by servants and what they need to do is to enjoy a luxurious life."
Eleanor would be driven out of the family one day. She only had a good fate. Who did she think she was to act arrogantly?
Gianna thought her life would get better after Hailey married into the Moore family. She'd put her hope in Hailey and thought that with the latter's favor, she and her family would get a large amount of money and wouldn't have to work anymore.
Therefore, she must let Eleanor f*ck off. She'd been working for half of her life, and she didn't want to live on a low pension when she got old.
Eleanor glanced at Gianna's back. It was not the time to let her pay the price yet, so she would let her stay so arrogant for several more days.
She focused her attention on making the mela and finished cooking in half an hour. When she walked out of the kitchen with the dishes she made, she found Sebastian was reading a book for Waylon.
Watching them from afar, Eleanor thought he was really a good father.
He'd educated Waylon well. Eleanor began to wonder if he was willing to let Waylon leave with her when she finished her revenge.
Based on Sebastian's characteristics, she thought it was impossible.
She could create some excuses for Sebastian. Only in this way could she win.
"The meal is ready," Eleanor called them after placing all the dishes on the table.
Sebastian put down the book, put Waylon on his knees, and then started his electronic wheelchair. The father and the son came to the table together.
Eleanor filled a bowl of steamed rice with chestnuts for Waylon and said, "Waylon, have a try. It's very delicious."
Waylon had smelled it before. If it weren't that he was pretending to be blind now, he would have eaten it by himself.
Eleanor then filled a bowl of plain steamed rice for Sebastian.
She filled another bowl of steamed rice with chestnuts for herself and then began to feed her son.
Sebastian looked up at Eleanor. Although he looked a bit annoyed, he spoke slowly as he asked, "Why is mine plain rice?"
Eleanor looked at him and explained, "I put many seasonings into it when making the steamed rice with chestnuts, and I'm afraid you may not like it."
Being treated differently, Sebastian felt a bit unhappy. "I want this too," he demanded.
Eleanor didn't argue with him and filled him a bowl of steamed rice with chestnuts.
As the fragrance spread, Sebastian couldn't hold back anymore.
In the past, he always ate light food. He ate everything prepared by the kitchen staff because he was not picky about food.
But now, Eleanor would prepare different kinds of dishes for them every day, and he inexplicably thought such a life good.
He put a spoon of rice into his mouth. It tasted soft and smelled good. He'd never expected rich to be so delicious. It was light and somehow fitted his taste.
"It tastes good!"
Waylon couldn't help but exclaim after taking several mouthfuls of rice. He felt so warm inside.
Elijah was right the dishes cooked by their mom were the most delicious food in this world.
Hearing her son's praise, Eleanor couldn't help but curl up her lips into a faint smile. She said to herself inwardly, "Waylon, I'm sorry. I won't let you suffer anymore."
"Can I have fish balls for dinner? The fish balls you made last time are very yummy," Waylon said with anticipation.
Eleanor replied with a chuckle, "Okay. I'll prepare a seaweed soup with fish balls or a celery cabbage with fish balls tonight."
Her smile was so bright and captivating.
Sebastian took a glance at her and then looked down to focus on his meal. However, an unnatural expression flashed across his handsome face.
"President Moore, what would you like to have for dinner?"
Sebastian, who was suddenly mentioned, looked up at her. He glanced at Eleanor with a slightly stiff expression and then replied in a flat voice, "I'm okay with anything."
"Then I'll cook fish and kitchen," Eleanor said with a light smile. Her voice was light, but it was very pleasant to the ear. She said so casually as if they were really a family.
A weird feeling rose in Sebastian's chest, but it fleeted away so soon that he couldn't tell what it was.
"Waylon, let's have a talk in the garden after lunch," Eleanor proposed smilingly. Her beautiful eyes looked so bright as if there were stars in them and both Waylon and Sebastian felt uncontrollably attracted by them.
"Okay," Waylon replied with a slight nod. The arrogance that he'd maintained before Eleanor had all gone.
Sebastian didn't say anything because needed to deal with a bunch of work after lunch.
After lunch, Eleanor took Waylon to the garden for a walk.
Waylon hadn't been out for a walk for a long time.
He felt so attracted to the wind, sunshine, and beautiful scenery in the garden. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The dark would always bring out loneliness. He felt so fretful and afraid when he couldn't see any lights because being blind meant he couldn't do anything. He could only sleep except for having meals and he was really afraid.
To prevent others from laughing at his blindness, he seldom went out and sometimes even pulled a long face, pretending to be a little adult. Also, he didn't show good temper to any people.
"Waylon, the scenery in this garden is very beautiful. We may go downstairs for a walk after a meal every day. You can also tell me if you want to go somewhere else."
"Okay," Waylon replied blandly.
Eleanor began to think about her son's blindness. He would regain his sight in two days.
How should she tell him about the truth at that time?
Eleanor was in a dilemma and was also afraid. She didn't know how she should get her son back from Sebastian after detoxicating Waylon.
It was a taboo in the Moore family, so no one dared to doubt Waylon's identity. This put her in a predicament because she had no idea about what consequences it would have on Waylon if she pointed out his identity.
She'd never expected this.
"OMG, did you hear that? Mrs. Moore went to a hotel to sleep with a man last night!"
"She's so cheeky. She can even depend on the alimony if she divorces Mr. Moore later. Why is she so greedy and ungrateful?"
"That's it. So what even if she has an enchanting face? Such a wh*re won't end well."
"She's the young hostess of the Moore family, but she's so promiscuous! I admire Mr. Moore for his endurance. If I were him, I would break her legs."
Eleanor's eyes turned colder and colder as they listened to their dirty discussion. Holding her son's hand, she directly walked toward those servants.
