Chapter 425
Patricia personally prepared breakfast, and it was a feast, even including spaghetti Bolognese which
Cornelia loved.
Eyeing the table full of her favorite breakfast dishes, Comelia was pleasantly surprised, “Patricia, aside
from President Hartley’s favorites, are all these for me?”
Marcus felt that Cornelia had a special charm. Seeing her so happy over breakfast, his mood also
brightened, and his appetite increased significantly.
Patricia served the dishes with a big smile, “Yes, they’re all for you. Try the spaghetti Bolognese, does
it taste like your grandma’s?”
Comelia didn’t usually eat pasta in the morning, but she couldn’t resist Patricia’s enthusiasm. As she
tasted the rich pasta with the special Bolognese sauce, she felt a sudden wave of emotion and said,
“Patricia, when did you learn to make such delicious spaghetti Bolognese? It’s exactly like my
grandma’s.”
What Patricia couldn’t tell Cornelia was that she had asked Granny Reba how to make Bolognese
sauce when she went to Southern Peak to spend Christmas with two grannies.
When Granny Reba learned that her main job was to take care of the couple and that she wanted to
learn to make Bolognese sauce for Comelia, she happily shared all her secret recipes.
When Patricia returned to Riverton, Granny Reba held her hand and advised, “Nelly can be a hot–
head sometimes, if she offends you in any way, I apologize on her behalf.”

Patricia quickly reassured Granny Reba, “You’re being too kind. Nelly is a delightful girl, and I really
like her. Besides, even if she has a temper and gives me a piece of her mind, I’m paid to handle it, so
there’s no hard feelings.”
Patricia had been working for the Hartley family for many years. Despite being treated as a family
member and having the best. conditions, she never forgot her ce.
She always remembered she was a hired cook, paid to work. Unlike some nannies who became
presumptuous when treated well by their employers, forgetting their ce.
Patricia was all smiles, “Nelly, if you like my cooking, you shoulde home more often. I’ll prepare
dinner early tonight, and you and Marc cane over after work.”
Cornelia replied, “Patricia, I’m sorry! Since I got back, I haven’t seen my grandmother and friends, they
must miss me. I need to visit them. When I have time, I’lle and taste your cooking.”
That was part of the reason. The main one being that, aside from work, Cornelia didn’t want to always
be at Marcus’s house.
Patricia didn’t press, “Alright,e when you can.” Her eyes showed obvious disappointment, making
Cornelia feel as if she owed Patricia something.
As Cornelia was eating, Patricia asked, “Nelly, what kind of home decor style do you like?”
Cornelia replied, “I like simple, elegant, and cozy styles.”
Patricia continued, “Do you like the current style of this home?”
Cornelia replied, “This is President Hartley’s house, what does it matter whether I like it or not?”
Patricia nced at Marcus, then said, “Marc is bringing his wife home, he’s worried she won’t like the
current style, so he wanted your opinion. You’re both young women and from the same ce, so your
tastes might be simr.”
Cornelia didn’t want to answer casually, “Everyone’s tastes differ when ites to home decor, you’d
better ask her directly.”
The silent Marcus finally spoke, “Patricia, let her eat first.”
