Chapter 810 Overconcerned That said, Eleanor thoughtfully covered up the injuries on his face with concealer before they headed out, saving the young prince from being ridiculed in public.
âLiam!â Dominik lectured. âNo honest job is too lowly to deserve respect. Eleanor has always been inquisitive about new things and is happy to learn from others. You should learn that from her.â
âIâHmph!â Liam snorted upsettingly, then flumped back onto the couch as he mocked, âWell, youâre the big brother. Whatever you say goes.â
âHahaha, you brothers sure are close. You two remind me of my younger self. My temper was exactly like Prince Liamâs.â Crayson thought out loud, then said, âYou guys chat. I have to get something done in the study.â
âPlease go ahead, Master Waylen,â said Dominik deferentially as he got up, to which Crayson nodded, then headed upstairs to the study.
Hayley was reading at the desk in the study when she heard the doorknob turning. At that, she looked up to find Crayson approaching her. âHave they left?â
Crayson closed the door and sighed. âThey want to have lunch here, and Eleanor actually made Iron her cooking teacher. We canât take the girl lightly.â
âIron is just an average Joe. For her to reach her hands toward him⦠No doubt she wants to bribe him and make him their spy.â Hayley analyzed the situation rationally.
âNow that you put it that way, we should use him well.â The elder, too, devised a few plans for âIronâ.
âNo rush. Letâs observe first.â
âYes, maâam.â Crayson nodded, then added, âTheyâre eating downstairs, so Iâm afraid youâll have to stay here all afternoon.â
âDonât worry about it.â Hayley made nothing of the issue.
Matthew made a table full of Bloomsteadâs specialties for lunch with Eleanorâs help.
Crayson, Mateo, Veronica, and the Ledger siblings took their seats at the dining table and got ready to eat when Eleanor suddenly stood up. âWait, my master made the lunch himself. He should join us at the table.â
Oh, how Veronica wished for Matthew to join her at the table, but she had her concerns.
On the one hand, she worried Matthewâs cover would be blown, and on the other, she couldnât find the proper excuse to let him join them.
Her overconcern would undoubtedly blow his cover.
Now that Eleanor had made the request, Veronica echoed, âYes. Princess Eleanor is right.â
âHeâs just a cook, so how can he join us?â Liam disapproved, causing Eleanor to shoot a nasty glance at him. âAre you saying a chef is lowly, Liam? Might I remind you he made everything thatâs on this table? Also, Iron is my master now. I wonât let you disrespect him!â
The princess was rather intimidating when she pulled a stern look and behaved like a true monarch.
At that, Liam quirked his lips and snorted disdainfully, saying no more. It then dawned on Veronica that Liam had zero say in front of Dominik and Eleanor.
âMaster Iron, come. Sit next to me.â With that, Eleanor patted Mateoâs shoulder. âDo you mind scooching over so Master Iron can sit here?â
Dominik sat on Eleanorâs left, Mateo sat on her right, and Veronica sat right across from her.
