    Chapter 97


    Rose noticed Moira was embarrassed and said, “This vi is huge.”


    Moira nodded in agreement, saying, “It’s bigger ti


    than regr houses. Take some time to explore around. Feel free to ask me anything.” She made


    the promise even though she was not familiar with the ce.


    Rose checked the refrigerator and found many fresh groceries Inside. She asked, “Mrs. Covington,


    is Mr. Covington returning for lunch today? What would you like for lunch?


    Moira replied, “Bary will be home for lunch today.” With that, she blinked and asked, “Ms.


    Graham, can you make salmon schnitzel? I haven’t eaten salmon schnitzel for quite a long time.”


    Rose stared at Moira’s shining eyes and responded with a smile, “Yes, I can. I’ll make it for lunch if


    you like.”


    Moira cried, “Thank you, Ms. Graham! I don’t have other requirements. You can improvise with


    whatever is in the refrigerator. She was not a picky eater.


    Rose replied, “All right. Does Mr. Covington have any preferences for his food?”


    Moira was embarrassed, murmuring inside, “I don’t know how to answ


    answer Rose’s question because I have no idea what Bary likes to eat!’


    Noticing Rose was smiling gently and expecting her answer, Moira searched all the information in


    her brain and said, “Bary is allergic to peanuts, but he’s not picky about food. Ms. Graham, you


    can make anything.”


    Rose had worked for many couples. She immediately realized Moira did not know Bary enough


    after she heard Moira’s answer. However, Rose chose not to ask further since Moira was a


    delightful employer. She followed Moira’s words and replied, “Great. I’ll make four dishes and one


    soup for lunch.”


    Moira responded, “Sounds perfect!” She was worried that Rose would ask more questions and


    hurriedly left the kitchen with the excuse of ying the


    piano.


    However, the doorbell rang before Moira could walk upstairs. She wondered, “How many people? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    has Bary assigned?”


    Moira turned around and walked to answer the door. Unexpectedly, it was an elegant woman


    standing there,


    Moira was


    stunned and asked, “Hello. Who are you looking for?”


    The woman was in a high-end customized dress set. The contrast of white daisies against the ck


    fabric entuated her sophistication. She reached out a hand and spoke gracefully, “Hello, Ms.


    Jimenez. I’m Bernice.”


    Moira stared at the woman’s hand and was confused, thinking. She seems arrogant but still polite


    Therefore, Moira shook the woman’s hand and replied, “Nice to meet you, Bernice.”


    The woman gave a hint. “Myst name is Covington.”


    Moira immediately changed her wording and said, “Hi, Mrs. Covington.”


    Bernice stared at Moira, her mind swirling with doubts. She pondered, ‘Has Eric’s secretary given


    me the wrong information? Is she Moira? How is it possible that she seems intelligent? I’ve dropped


    hints, but she still has no idea who I am!”


    Bernice had never seen a person less sharper than Moira. Shey the cards on the table and


    disdainfully said, “I’m Bary’s stepmother.”


    Moira blurted out, “Ohh! You’re the homewrecker! I’ve heard of you.” Startled by her own words, she


    quickly covered her mouth with her hand, in disbelief. With a pitiful look, she apologized, “I’m sorry,


    Mrs. Covington. Sometimes, I speak without thinking. What brings you here?”

    Bernice’s expression darkened when she heard Moira’s words. She asked, “is Bary here?”


    “No.” Moira paused for a while before she added, “Oh, it turned out you’re here for Bary. I thought


    you were here for me:


    Bernice red at Moira and asked, “What are you trying to imply?”


    Moira showed her pitiful look again and replied, “Nothing! Mrs. Covington, not everyone is as


    scheming as you!”

    Bernice was so angry that her face turned pale. She put on airs and criticized, “Anyway, I’m


    Bary’s legal mother. As his wife, how can you make me speak to you at the door?”


    Moira retorted, “Didn’t you say you were here for Bary? I’ve told you he’s not around! Shouldn’t


    you leave since the person you’re looking for is not here?”


    Moira’s unreasonable words had a point. Bernice could not fight back, so she snorted and shouted,


    “Cut the act! I’m here for you today! Move!” After roaring at Moira, Bernice strade into the house


    with a cold face.
