Chapter 57 The Intimacy Between Kendrick and Natalie
After saying that, Natalie stopped talking.
As a wise person, she knew where to stop.
Nancy frowned and scolded, "Grace, you really are old and confused. The doctor says Dad cannot eat
such food, so why did you prepare it for him? I think it's time for you to go home and take care of your
grandchildren. Otherwise, we'll all be very worried if you are the one looking after Dad when we are
away."
Grace had served Nancy wholeheartedly for many years, so she didn't expect her to be the first one to
say such mean words.
She said with the grievance, "Mr. Seth also ate cassava and sweet potato congee the other morning,
and nothing happened to him then. I really have no idea what's going on today. Did he not have a good
rest last night?"
Nancy was furious. "Stop quibbling. You have made such a mistake more than once. The family doctor
has emphasized the food to be avoided, but you kept making the same mistake. Pack your bags now
and never come back. From now on, the kitchen chores will be left to Patricia and the others!"
Grace had worked at the Ramsey's mansion for more than 20 years, but she had never been so
wronged.
She wiped her tears and said, "Mr. Seth, I have been in this family for nearly thirty years. You...You
can't just drive me away like this!"
Seth frowned and was quite fidgety.
Nancy had taken a tough stand on this matter.
She left no leeway for Grace.
If Seth punished Grace lightly, he would lose his prestige in the Ramsey family, and then no one would
be afraid of him in the future.
However, he knew that Grace could not be fired.
After all, she had worked for the Ramsay family for nearly 30 years, and no one knew his temper and
preferences better than she did.
Natalie glanced sideways at Seth and saw the hesitation on his face.
Apparently, he was thinking about how to deal with it.
After thinking for a moment, Natalie came forward and took the glass from Seth's hand. Then she
patted his heart for him and said softly with her lips pursed, "Grandpa, Grace is indeed aged, but she
has also worked in this family for so many years, and no one knows your preferences better than her.
Therefore, it's a bit too cruel to kick her out. How about this?"
She paused deliberately.
Seth looked at her. "Say it!"
Natalie continued, "Deduct Grace's performance bonus and 30% of her salary this month. Then, as
Nancy has said, hand over the kitchen chores to Patricia and the others, and Grace will only be in
charge of the overall arrangement."
Her words perfectly demonstrated her high EQ.
She not only complied with Seth's wishes, but she did not embarrass Nancy either.
After all, Nancy was now on her and Kendrick's side.
Natalie was quite confident that Seth would agree with her.
As she had expected, after Seth listened to her words, his face softened a lot. He took the out given by
Natalie and said, "OK, just do as you said."
Then he pointed to Grace and said, "Don't make such mistakes again."
Natalie softly said, "Grandpa, you haven't had breakfast yet. How about some oatmeal?"
Seeing her smart look, Seth thought that she was very considerate, for she had guessed his mind. As a
result, he nodded kindly and said, "OK."
Natalie raised her eyes and said, "Grace, make some oatmeal, and prepare two tablets of EPA for
Grandpa to take with the meal. I'll go to the kitchen with you."
As she said this, her voice was no longer soft, but somewhat commanding.
Grace nodded in trepidation.
As Natalie passed Kendrick, the two of them met each other in the eye.
Natalie even winked at him.
"What's she planning to do?" Kendrick couldn't help but think.

After entering the kitchen, Grace began to cook the oatmeal.
Natalie ordered her, "Go and get a glass of sugar-free milk."
Grace was in a complicated mood. She turned her head, and when she saw Natalie's cold eyes, her
heart trembled. She quickly lowered her head to get milk.
She poured the milk into a glass, placed two tablets of EPA on a lid, and put them all in a tray. After
that, she said to Natalie, "The oatmeal will be okay in ten minutes."
"OK!" Natalie answered. Then she walked up to Grace with both hands crossed in front of her chest
and looked down at her.
In fact, Natalie's face was innocent and gentle.
When she smiled, she looked cute and soft.
However, when she looked at someone, her eyes exuded an overbearing aura beyond her age.
"Grace!" Natalie said to her, "Do you know why I spoke for you today?"
Grace was stunned for a while. Her level of education and ability to analyze logically were not good
enough to support her thinking about such complex things.
However, she knew that Natalie was definitely not well-intentioned.
"Nancy was going to drive you away, but I stopped her." Natalie said in a calm tone, "As you have
seen, Grandpa listened to me very much, so he just deducted your bonus but didn't fire you."
She drew close, lowered her voice, and said, "I just want you to know who's the boss in this family."
Meanwhile, she thought, "Of course, Seth is the boss in the Ramsey family.
I was only taking advantage of his favor.
Even so, it was enough to fool Grace, who is stupid.
Anyway, Grandpa had indeed listened to me these times."
At that moment, Natalie felt like a scheming villain.
She decided to act like a real villain. She put her hands on Grace's shoulders and pressed her
downward.
This was the perfect pose to break down a person's mental defenses and make her feel inferior.
"If you and the people under your command dare to treat Mr. Ramsey differently, despise, or even
ignore him again..." Natalie stared into Grace's eyes and said word for word in a cold voice, "I'll always
have a way to get you all out of here right away. Do you understand?"
Grace's lips quivered, and her hands trembled.
She was angry, even humiliated.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Natalie increased her grip and raised her eyebrows. "Do you
understand?"
"I see."
In the end, Grace succumbed to her overbearing aura.
Hearing this, Natalie finally let go of her. She went to pick up the bowl of cubilose that had not been
served, lifted the lid, and, under Grace's gaze, scooped up a mouthful. After she put it in her mouth,
she nodded and said, "It tastes quite good!"
Grace almost fainted with anger.
When Natalie came out with the cubilose, only Kendrick and Nancy were left in the living room.
Seth had probably gone upstairs to rest.
Nancy was talking about something, and Kendrick kept showing a cold face.
Natalie walked over and sat down, completely ignoring Nancy. Then she scooped a spoonful of
cubilose and put it in her mouth, saying, "It's really delicious."
Nancy glanced at her and said, "This is cubilose curd, the most nutritious part of the cubilose!"
Hearing this, Natalie thought, "I knew it! Melvin, that brute, eats a lot better than us."
She scooped a spoonful, handed it to Kendrick's lips, and said, "Try it!"
She bit her lip and whispered, "It tastes much better than what we just ate."
Kendrick lowered his head and opened his mouth, and Natalie put the spoon into his mouth.
In the past, Natalie had no idea why some people just liked to take away other people's favorites.
However, she understood it perfectly now, for it was very pleasant to do so.
When Natalie took a spoonful of cubilose herself and prepared to feed Kendrick with another, Nancy
said in disdain, "Come on, stop being lovey-dovey at the crack of dawn. Do you have to share the
same bowl of cubilose like this? It's disgusting."
After saying that, she seemed to have had enough of it. She glanced at them and then left with great
disdain.
Natalie's hand froze, and she lowered her head in silence.
Seeing this, Kendrick raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why don't you feed me again?"
