Chapter 1301


    Chapter 1301 Attention To Spare


    Penelope was thrilled when she heard Arielle scoffing. She chalked it up to Vinson’s decision to head


    for the guest room instead of his shared bedroom with Arielle.


    Her happiness was, however, marred with a hint of sorrow.


    After Arielle’s departure, Vinson had not been back once. When Penelope asked Susanne about


    Vinson’s disappearance, Susanne said she did not have the right to know about her son’s whereabouts


    and kept mum.


    Consequently, Penelope could only wait patiently for Vinson to return home. When he finally showed


    up, it was with Arielle in tow.


    Despite his somewhat cold treatment of Arielle, Penelope found herself unsettled.


    I need to buck up and win Vinson over. Now that Arielle’s back in the picture, they’ll see each other


    every day. Susanne will be doing her best to help them reconcile as well, so I’m already at a


    disadvantage.


    As the thought crossed her mind, Penelope hurried into the kitchen, determined to show off her


    newfound talent.


    She believed in the saying that the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach.


    To capture Vinson’s affection, she had diligently practiced her cooking over the past few days, hoping


    to serve him a homecooked meal that surpassed anything Arielle could ever prepare.


    She believed that her efforts had paid off.


    Sadly, Vinson had not returned home since Arielle’s departure, so Penelope had not had a chance to


    show off her improved cooking skills.


    Now that he was finally back, she wanted to put her skills to the test and give him an unforgettable


    feast.


    He’ll fall in love with my cooking, and then with me!


    Penelope had conveniently forgotten the fact that Arielle was the boss of Maureen’s Kitchen. She was


    never a match for thetter in terms of culinary prowess.


    Right then, she wasser-focused on preparing a delectable meal that would change Vinson’s opinion


    of her.


    With a smug smile curving her lips, Penelope waved off the chefs and housekeepers bustling around


    the kitchen. She announced, “You may all head off. I’ll prepare dinner tonight.”


    The kitchen staff had be familiar with Penelope’s character over the past few days. Though they


    detested her orders, they could only swallow their indignity seeing as Vinson had brought her into the


    household.


    With that, the chefs and housekeepers quickly dropped their tasks at hand and left the kitchen. They


    could not even be bothered to greet Penelope properly.


    Penelope wanted to tell them off for their impertinence. However, she was in a rush to prepare dinner


    for Vinson, so she could only spare the staff a re before getting to work.


    Meanwhile, Arielle returned to her assigned guest room, only to realize that Vinson was present. The


    guest room window was open; he had evidently climbed in from the outside.


    Arielle walked into the room and shot him a curious stare. “What happened to our act? Why are you


    here? What if someone discovers us like this?”


    “Don’t worry. No one will know,” Vinson said while approaching her.


    “What do you think Penelope’s feeling now?”


    Arielle wanted tough at Penelope’s expression upon seeing her. She must’ve been ted when I


    wasn’t around, thinking I left in a fit of jealous anger.

    Vinson stared at Arielle and smirked. Then, he pulled her into his arms and gazed intently at her. “Why


    do you have attention left to spare on someone else?”


    He had missed her dearly during their separation. I can’t believe she’s bringing up another woman at a


    time like this. The audacity!


    Arielle lifted her head and met his hungry gaze. It was time for dinner, and she wanted to tear herself


    away from the temptation of hispany.
