Chapter 288



The dining room table filled up quickly.

Warren also saw Nora, who was preparing to go downstairs.

Instantly he straightened his back and craned his neck. He pretended not to look at her, but he kept his eyes on her out of the corner of his eye.

If this person came over to greet her, he would definitely ignore her and tell her not to think he would recognize her as a sister just because she called him brother.

Uncle Ian controlled the whole family. Uncle Ian’s family was the direct line of descent. The other siblings, including him, were all from the side family!

As for Nora, it went even further!

After all, the hatred of snatching someone’s wife was too intense!

Anyway, he was sent by his Uncle Ian, he definitely wouldn’t be cajoled by his sister!

Just as he was saying this to himself, he saw Nora slowly coming down from upstairs. She walked past him and headed for the dining room without a word.

Warren: “No, no, no…”.

Was she blind? She was a living person, can’t you see that?

Warren was so angry he wanted to go ahead and argue, but Yvonne held his hand. “Warren, you, don’t stoop to her level…”

Warren snorted coldly. “I don’t care about her, I’m just not full yet! Go to the kitchen and see what else there is to eat!”

Yvonne: “…”

Nora ignored them both. She could sense Yvonne’s inexplicable hostility towards her. As for Warren… He had conspired against her at the Hunts. It was good enough that she didn’t settle accounts with him. How could she continue to greet him?

She sat at the dining room table and wasn’t picky about what she ate.

The food she ate only served to fill her stomach. Delicacy never entered into his considerations.

Seeing that he looked like the reincarnation of a hungry ghost as he devoured a plate of steamed crayfish, Warren couldn’t help but feel indignant.

He walked into the kitchen nonchalantly and brought out the prepared Australian lobster. He placed it on the table and sighed. “This Australian lobster is too delicious!”

What was so good about the food sent by the Hunts – was it better than the Smith’s?

Hurry up and throw away that little lobster that doesn’t have much meat on it – come try the Smiths’ lobster! It’s full of meat!

Unfortunately, Nora pretended not to hear him. She took another plate of noodles and finished it in a few bites.

The way she ate was fast and hearty, but the sound she made as she ate was very soft. Whatever it was, he shoved it into his mouth in large mouthfuls and chewed quickly before swallowing.

Eating like this put pressure on his stomach.

Thinking about this, Warren said to her, “Hey, can’t you eat a little more elegantly? Can’t you be a little more noble like the Smiths’ eldest daughter? You look like you haven’t eaten in 800 years.”

Nora: “…”

A plate of crayfish and a plate of noodles were quickly gobbled up by her. She pulled out a tissue and wiped her mouth before throwing it in the garbage can. Then, she stood up and looked around before asking in a hoarse voice, “Where’s Cherry?”.

The housekeeper looked at her and lowered her head to answer, “In little miss’s room. She’s going to sleep with little miss tonight.”

The housekeeper looked at Nora and added, “She has taken a liking to Little Miss’s princess bed and has insisted on staying there.”

With that, she pursed her lips.

Not only that, but she had also tricked Little Miss into pulling out lots of princess dresses to share with her. This girl was so calculating!

Nora seemed not to have heard her answer. She asked again, “Where is Mia’s room?”.

“Turn left on the second floor, the third room.”

Nora nodded and went upstairs.

When she left, the housekeeper instructed the nanny to get out a cloth and carefully wipe the place where she had sat before saying, “Take this silverware and disinfect it.”

Warren didn’t care about her actions. After all, he didn’t even know how nannies washed dishes. Besides, it was normal for household items to be sanitized.

Yvonne raised her eyebrows.

Nora had just gone upstairs when she heard a voice behind her.

She glanced up and realized that the housekeeper had followed her. When the housekeeper saw her, she walked beside her. “The lady’s room is this way. Don’t walk around recklessly. It won’t do for you to bump into the gentlemen.”

Nora raised her eyebrows.

When she entered Mia’s room, she saw a study room with the door open. There were four main computers in it, and they were up and running.

She only glanced around before the housekeeper introduced, “This is our young lady’s work studio…Miss Yvonne. She likes to code programs as a hobby. Sometimes, she would make some software with it. The firewall that Miss Yvonne created has even won awards. These four main computers are servers bought at high prices abroad. Don’t go in recklessly. If you accidentally press any buttons and affect Miss Yvonne’s software programming, it won’t be good.”

These things were all too familiar. Nora couldn’t help but ask, “Is she a hacker?”

“What hacker? This is just Miss Yvonne’s hobby. She just writes some code now and then. Miss Yvonne is omnipotent. She knows how to arrange flowers, draw, calligraphy, play the violin and the piano. She’s basically won every award in the industry.”

The housekeeper sounded a little proud when she said this.

Then, she said, “Although Miss Yvonne is an adopted daughter, she is Mr. Ian’s adopted daughter. Her status is definitely different from the other knights and ladies of the other houses. Apart from Lord Joel, all the other knights adore her. They treat her with respect.”

Although some of the Smiths lived in the house, others had moved in.

Actually, strictly speaking, Ian owned this mansion. Joel had been chosen by him to become the current leader and take over his business.

In ancient times, this was considered an adoption for Ian.

Only Warren and his wife could be considered to live in the mansion. There were also people from the other houses who had already moved in.

Even if Nora was the Smiths’ daughter, she was of the second branch. She was not considered the matriarch of this mansion.

The housekeeper knew very well who owned the house.

Nora gave her a sidelong glance at her words.

After showing Nora Mia’s door, the housekeeper left.

When she went down to the kitchen, she heard the nannies discussing in hushed tones. “Miss Smith will marry Mr. Hunt in the future. Then she will be Mrs. Hunt and become mistress of the entire Hunt Empire. But our Miss…Miss Yvonne, after she marries, will no longer be considered a member of the Smiths. In all of New York, other than the Hunts, no one can compare with the Smiths, can they? Is Miss Smith or Miss Yvonne more respected?”

The housekeeper came in immediately and sneered. “Have the house rules been broken? Of course, the mistress is the most respected!
