Chapter 654: Human or Dog
After Cecilia went upstairs, she was infuriated. “Isabe thought highly of herself!”
“Exactly! She was so arrogant!” Scarlet was also quite angry. “If it weren’t for Mr Lisa’s sake, who
would have apologized to her? You even made concessions, but Isabe wouldn’t give an inch. In my
opinion, Isabe shouldn’t have returned to this family!”
“She made me so angry, so angry…” Cecilia had no outlet for her frustration. She threw pillows and
stuffed animals everywhere, feeling unsatisfied. Then she started throwing objects from the table, like
tissue boxes and remote controls, onto the floor.
Damn it!
Isabe was relying on Lisa’s support to act so arrogantly!
“Mr Lisa was overacting! You just said a few thoughtless words in front of our friends, and it turned into
you being obsessed with your image, being vain, and not hurting Isabe. And then he forbade you
from having dinner and deducted your monthly sry and Lunar New Year bonus! Mr Lisa was truly
going too far!”
“Lisa punished me, but he warned you privately and deducted a month’s sry and the Lunar New
Year bonus. Lisa was going too far!” After all, Scarlet had been serving in this family for eighteen years!
She had worked so hard!
What did it have to do with Scarlet?
Lisa punished Scarlet too…
Cecilia only said a few things that weren’t in Isabe’s favour. She didn’t cause any substantial harm to
Isabe. Lisa’s actions were genuinely excessive!
“Miss Cecilia, I was fine… but your position in Mr Lisa’s eyes was greatly damaged by Isabe…”
Cecilia, in her anger, suddenly had an idea.
She went to the Western-style kitchen. When the servants saw her searching around, they asked
hurriedly, “Miss Cecilia, what were you looking for?”
“I wanted to make Isabe a cup of coffee to calm her down…” Cecilia asked gently, “Where were the
coffee beans that Isabe usually liked to drink?”
“They were in this drawer.” The servant took them out voluntarily.
Cecilia looked and was surprised that the coffee beans Isabe drank were even better than the ones
she usually had!
“Was this the coffee that Isabe usually drank? Are you sure?” Cecilia maintained her gentle and kind
appearance.
“Yes, these were bought by Mr Lisa a long time ago. He said Isabe also drank this brand at the
company. Usually, I’m the one who brewed coffee for Isabe so that I wouldn’t be mistaken.”
“… “Cecilia suddenly felt a sense of disparity in her heart. Lisa had secretly bought such good coffee
beans for Isabe. He even had them at thepany. Lisa had indeed been biased.
“Let me make a cup for Isabe.” Cecilia took the coffee beans and went to the coffee machine.
“Miss Cecilia, let me do it. This type of coffee bean is different from regr ones. You need to be
careful with the dosage and brewing method to ensure that it tastes the best when Isabe drinks it.”
“… “Cecilia didn’t care about the taste; she just found it repulsive. “Tell me how to do it, and I’ll make it.”
Seeing that Cecilia genuinely wanted to make the coffee, the servant guided the side.
After making the coffee, Cecilia brought it upstairs and knocked on Isabe’s door.
When Isabe heard the knock, she knew it wasn’t her usual strength and guessed it was Cecilia.
Isabezily said, “If you’re a person, don’t knock anymore. If you’re a dog, bark twice.”
Cecilia’s actions froze in mid-air, unsure of how to proceed. If Cecilia knocked again, it would mean she
wasn’t human, and if Cecilia spoke, it would prove she was a dog…
Damn you, Isabe!
Scarlet was hiding nearby and was about to speak up, but Cecilia signalled for her to return. After
clearing her throat, Cecilia gently said, “Isabe, it’s me… Can you open the door?”
Isabe already knew it was someone she didn’t want to see, so she didn’t bother responding.
“Isabe…” Cecilia knocked on the door while holding the coffee. “Could you hear me?”
Isabe left her hanging for a while before opening the door.
“I told you to bark twice. Did you bark?”
“Cecilia suppressed her anger and put on a calm smile. “Isabe, this is the coffee you usually drink.
Just take a sip to calm down.”
“Are you trying to poison or spill the coffee on me?”

Cecilia didn’t expect Isabe to be so intelligent. She hurriedly smiled and said, “Why would I do that? I
genuinely wanted to apologize to you.”
“Are you apologizing to me or trying to teach me a lesson? Do you think I don’t know?”
Isabe had spent eighteen years in the Brown family. She had seen all sorts of tricks, especially after
the Brown family found Daisy. That pretentious coquette would put on a show every day at home.
Isabe had experienced all kinds of tricks.
Cecilia was nowhere near her level…
“What do I have to do for you to ept my apology?” Cecilia sincerely said. “As long as it’s something I
can do, I will do it.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes,” Cecilia nodded earnestly.
“Then stay away from me, don’t appear before me. When I close the doorter, make sure you hold the
coffee steady, don’t spill it on yourself intentionally or break the cup and me me.” After saying that,
Isabe unceremoniously closed the door.
Cecilia didn’t expect Isabe to see through her final n. Seeing Isabe quickly close the door, she
stood holding the coffee, not knowing what to do. In hiding in the shadows, Scarlet didn’t expect
Isabe to be so sharp-minded…
Scarlet signalled for Cecilia to leave first. Cecilia looked at the expensive coffee in her hand and
deliberately sounded dejected as she walked away. “Isabe didn’t want to drink it. It seems my
sincerity didn’t touch her. I’ll think of another way.”
One of the servants, who was cleaning an antique vase, saw this and suddenly felt some sympathy for
Miss Cecilia. She had been waiting in the living room since morning, wanting to apologize to Miss
Isabe. But after being humiliated by Miss Isabe, she didn’t receive a kind response…
In the past, Cecilia had never experienced such humiliation…
Cecilia had only been concerned about saving face and said something unfavourable about Miss
Isabe in front of their friends. It shouldn’t have led to this oue.
“Miss Cecilia, you’re still not well. You should rest in your room…” The servant who spoke was named
Lotus, around Cecilia’s age.
Cecilia felt happy to have someone on her side and pretended to be magnanimously disappointed. “It’s
alright. There’s nothing more important than getting Isabe’s forgiveness…” Cecilia pretended to say.
Lotus saw Cecilia’s disappointed departure and suddenly felt that Miss Cecilia wasn’t fundamentally
bad. She must have
After returning to her room, Cecilia’s face immediately changed. She no longer appeared weak or sad.
On the contrary, she sniffed the coffee in her hand. The aroma was more prosperous and more mellow
than what she usually drank.
She had never had such expensive coffee in this family -just this tiny cup cost around two thousand
dors.
She slowly savoured the coffee, her eyes filled with new ideas.
After finishing a video conference in her room, Isabe grabbed her bag and prepared to go out. Cecilia
caught up with her as soon as she left the main building.
“Isabe, where were you going? When would you be back? I just learned from the chef how to make a
few small cakes for you. They would be ready soon…”
Isabe expected Cecilia could be more smart. She turned around and saw several servants cleaning
the garden, all curious about themotion. Even the servants wiping the windows by therge floor-
to-ceiling windows were watching.
“Don’t waste my time,” Isabe said.
Isabe could tell that Cecilia wasn’t genuinely remorseful. She was putting on an act for the people
around her, trying to make them believe that she was a good person.
“Isabe, please give me another chance,” Cecilia suddenly grabbed her hand.
“What? Are you waiting for me to let go of your hand so you can take the opportunity to fall?”
“No, that’s not what I meant. Isabe, you misunderstood…” Cecilia felt wronged but continued to hold
onto Isabe’s hand.
“Come here,” Isabe suddenly looked at the nearby servants.
The servants were taken aback but quickly put down their
